Brief Summary: RATIONALE Estrogen may cause the growth of ovarian cancer cells Hormone therapy using tamoxifen may fight ovarian cancer by blocking the use of estrogen by the tumor cells Measuring CA 125 levels may help doctors predict a patients response to tamoxifen and help plan the best treatment

PURPOSE This phase II trial is studying CA 125 levels in treating patients with relapsed advanced ovarian cancer fallopian tube cancer or primary peritoneal cancer who are receiving tamoxifen
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the percentage of patients with relapsed advanced ovarian carcinoma fallopian tube carcinoma or primary peritoneal carcinoma who have a log linear rise in CA 125 levels
Determine whether the log linear part of the curve is consistent enough to allow comparison of the slope before and after introduction of a new therapy
Compare the serial doubling time before and after commencing tamoxifen citrate treatment
Determine the number of patients required to detect a significant difference in CA 125 doubling time before and after starting tamoxifen citrate treatment

OUTLINE Patients undergo blood collection once a month to measure CA 125 levels Once the CA 125 level goes above the upper limit of normal ULN or has started to rise from its nadir level if not previously normal CA 125 levels are measured every 2 weeks When CA 125 levels reach 4 times the ULN or 4 times the nadir level if not previously normal patients begin oral tamoxifen citrate once daily for 3-6 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity CA 125 levels will continue to be measured every 2 weeks during treatment

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 200 patients will be accrued for this study
