- Measurable disease
- Gynecologic Oncology Group (GOG) performance status 0-2
- Patients must have received one prior systemic chemotherapy for persistent or recurrent disease
- Patients with mild to moderate renal insufficiency should avoid taking non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs_ with short elimination half-lives for a period of 2 days before, the day of, and 2 days following administration of pemetrexed.
- All patients taking NSAIDs with longer half-lives, should interrupt dosing for at least 5 days before, the day of, and 2 days following pemetrexed administration.
- Folic Acid (350-1000 ug) must be given daily beginning approximately 5-7 days prior to first does of pemetrexed and continuing daily until 3 weeks after the last dose of study therapy.
