The proposed study "combination therapy with liposomal doxorubicin and withaferin A (Ashwagandha, ASWD) in recurrent ovarian cancer" is focused to determine the feasibility and maximum tolerance dose of Ashwagandha with liposomal doxorubicin (DOXIL) in recurrent ovarian cancer patients. The study contains two parts. In part 1 (phase I), 18 patients with recurrent ovarian cancer eligible for DOXIL therapy will be recruited and three doses of Ashwagandha (2.0 g, 4.0 g and 8.0 g) in the form of tablets along with DOXIL will be evaluated for feasibility and tolerance of ASWD. In part 2 (phase II), 54 patients with recurrent ovarian cancer will be recruited and treated with DOXIL and Ashwagandha (dose determined from part 1) to evaluate the complete response (CR), partial response (PR), and stable disease (SD).
