ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To determine the correlation between results of ATP bioluminescence tumor chemosensitivity assay (ATP-TCA) of human ovarian cancer specimens in vitro and clinical chemo-therapeutic responses of patients.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Thirty-four freshly taken ovarian cancer specimens (28 cases) and ascites (6 cases) and 9 chemotherapeutic drugs were tested in vitro for cancer chemosensitivity by ATP-TCA.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Among the 34 ovarian cancer cases, the efficacy of ATP-TCA is 94.0%, the sensitivity, the specificity, the positive and negative predicting values, and an overall predicting value in vitro and vivo were 90.0%, 91.7%, 94.7%, 84.6% and 90.6%, respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The results of ATP-TCA assay are correlated well with clinical treatment responses. The assay may be an important and useful method for individual-based chemotherapy of cancers.</p>
