Ovarian cancer (OC) is one of the most common gynecologic tumors worldwide and one with the highest mortality. Cisplatin (DDP) is the first platinum-based complex approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat patients with OC. Despite a good initial response rate, most patients receiving DDP treatment will ultimately develop resistance via various complicated mechanisms, leading to therapeutic failure and increased mortality. Multiple resistance pathways have been identified as potentially key areas of intervention. In this review, chemotherapeutic drugs and phytochemicals developed to overcome cisplatin-resistance ovarian cancer (CROC) were discussed. Targeted inhibition or specific drugs are effective against the DDP-resistance phenotype by inhibiting resistance or increasing cytotoxic efficacy VSports手机版. Phytochemicals as chemosensitizers offer novel treatment strategies for CROC patients by reducing chemoresistance and increasing drug efficacy. Due to the complexity of the DDP-resistance mechanism, the treatment of OC needs to improve specificity and effectiveness, and multi-path cooperative therapy is undoubtedly one of the best options. We discuss extensively the role of combination therapy in reversing DDP-resistance in OC and the significance of using a nanoparticle delivery system in this context. Suggestions for potential therapeutic strategies for CROC treatment will help discover more effective and specific regimens to overcome DDP-resistance. .
