    The purpose of our study was to assess susceptibility of cells of various ovarian cell lines on different nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).. Cytotoxic effect of NSAIDs was tested using MTT colorimetric assay.. Amongst 6 NSAIDs tested: sulindac, sulindac sulfide, sulindac sulfone, acetylsalicylic acid, nimesulide, and rofecoxib, viability of ovarian carcinoma cells was compromised most strongly by sulindac and sulindac sulfide and concerned all the cell lines tested: SKOV-3, MDAH 2774, OVCA-1, and OVP-10. Sulindac sulfone and rofecoxib also displayed some cytotoxic effect during prolonged 72-hour incubation. Other NSAIDs tested: nimesulide and acetylsalicylic acid were devoid of cytotoxic effect on ovarian cancer cells.. Our results are encourage enough to conduct clinical trials that could allow to draw conclusions regarding potential application of sulindac in the adjuvant treatment of a standard chemotherapy of ovarian cancer.
