Abstract: Ovarian cancer has the highest mortality among all gynecological tumors.Currently,platinum and taxanes based chemotherapy drugs are mainly used for ovarian cancer.Paclitaxel is a taxane drug,one of the most widely used chemotherapy drugs,and also a first-line chemotherapeutic drug for treating ovarian cancer.Despite its widespread use in the treatment of ovarian cancer,paclitaxel′s clinical has efficacy is hindered by the development of resistance.This article mainly discusses the mechanism and treatment strategies of paclitaxel resistance in ovarian cancer,including combination therapy,exploration of new targets,and the combination of novel carriers,providing a basis for solving the problem of paclitaxel resistance in the treatment of ovarian cancer.

Key words: Paclitaxel, Ovarian cancer, Drug resistance, Treatment strategies
