Nope, that link doesn't work. But I have access, and I really like this quote:

One patient who presented with platinum and paclitaxel
refractory disease achieved a durable CR. This
patient had stage IV ovarian cancer and was treated
by inadequate debulking surgery followed by carboplatin
and paclitaxel. She progressed during her sixth
cycle, exhibiting measurable bulky (5 cm) disease in
liver and spleen (target lesions), ascites, and diffuse
abdominal metastases that were nonmeasurable, and
a rising CA125 level of 36. After two cycles (6 weeks)
of TLK286, the patient had a robust PR, and after completing
six cycles of TLK286, the patient experienced
a confirmed CR. The patient continues in complete
remission for more than 3 years and off all therapy for
more than 2.5 years


Only one patient, but that's an incredible result on monotherapy.
