Primary Objective:
1\. To determine the response rate, time to progression and survival (secondary) of the combination of docetaxel and gemcitabine administered on a weekly basis to patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer
Secondary Objective:
1. To determine the toxicity of this combination regimen in patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer
2. To evaluate the toxicity and safety profile of a short course (one dose) of premedication with steroids to patients receiving weekly gemcitabine and docetaxel
OUTLINE: Patients receive gemcitabine IV over 30 minutes on days 1 and 8, and docetaxel IV over 60 minutes on day 8. Treatment repeats every 21 days until PD, unacceptable toxicity, or patient's withdrawal.
