Official Title: A Phase I Pharmacokinetic Study of Intraperitoneal CTEP-Supplied Agent Bortezomib (PS-341, NSC 681239) and Carboplatin (NSC# 241240) in Patients With Persistent or Recurrent Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, o

Brief Summary: This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of intraperitoneal bortezomib when given together with intraperitoneal carboplatin in treating patients with ovarian epithelial cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer that is persistent or has come back. Bortezomib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Bortezomib may help carboplatin work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug. Infusing bortezomib and carboplatin directly into the abdomen (intraperitoneal) may kill more tumor cells.
