731 Background: Ovarian metastases from colorectal cancers are relatively rare. Since most ovarian metastases are also associated with other metastatic sites, the prognosis is reported to be poor. It is not fully understood whether the response to systemic chemotherapy of ovarian metastases differs from that to other metastatic sites. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of patients with ovarian metastases from colorectal cancer treated at our hospital between January 2006 and December 2015. Results: Among the 635 female patients with relapsed or metastatic colorectal cancer, 57 (9.0%) had ovarian metastases before the first-line treatment; 37 patients received palliative chemotherapy, and 20 patients were initially treated by surgical resection. In addition, 38 cases of ovarian metastases developed after the initiation of first-line chemotherapy. Overall, 95 patients (15.0%) with ovarian metastases were treated during this period. The objective response rate for systemic chemotherapy of ovarian metastases was lower than that for other metastatic sites (22.9 % vs 60.9 % for first-line, 3.4 % vs 13.6 % for second-line, 11.1 % vs 26.6 % for third-line, and 0% vs 18.2 % for fourth-line, respectively). After the initiation of chemotherapy, surgical resection of ovarian metastases was positively associated with a longer overall survival (26.8 months for cytoreductive surgery and 17.0 months for only systemic chemotherapy, p < 0.001), especially when the other metastatic sites had not progressed after chemotherapy. Conclusions: Ovarian metastases are less responsive to systemic chemotherapy compared to the extra-ovarian metastases. Our data also suggest that multi-disciplinary treatment strategy including systemic chemotherapy and cytoreductive surgery might improve the prognosis of ovarian metastases.
