"patients will receive six courses of intravenous carboplatin and paclitaxel every 3 weeks, followed by delayed interval cytoreductive surgery (DICS) within 6 weeks of the last cycle of chemotherapy. After DICS, patients will be assessed for the need or not for further adjuvant chemotherapy.~chemotherapy regimen:~* Paclitaxel at 175 mg/m² + carboplatin area under the curve (AUC) 5-6 every 3 weeks.~* Paclitaxel at 60 mg/m² (days 1, 8, and 15), and carboplatin AUC 2 (days 1, 8, and 15) every 3 weeks.~* Paclitaxel at dense dose 80 mg/m² (days 1, 8, and 15) and carboplatin AUC 5-6 (day 1) every 3 weeks."

"patients will receive three courses of intravenous carboplatin and paclitaxel every 3 weeks, followed by early interval cytoreductive surgery (EICS) within 6 weeks of the last cycle of chemotherapy. After EICS, patients will receive adjuvant three courses of intravenous carboplatin and paclitaxel every 3 weeks, then will be assessed for the need or not for further adjuvant chemotherapy.~chemotherapy regimen:~* Paclitaxel at 175 mg/m² + carboplatin area under the curve (AUC) 5-6 every 3 weeks.~* Paclitaxel at 60 mg/m² (days 1, 8, and 15), and carboplatin AUC 2 (days 1, 8, and 15) every 3 weeks.~* Paclitaxel at dense dose 80 mg/m² (days 1, 8, and 15) and carboplatin AUC 5-6 (day 1) every 3 weeks."
