Brief summary: The purposes of this study are to determine: - whether standard or higher doses of pemetrexed should be given to patients with ovarian or primary peritoneal cancer that has recurred; - the safety and side effects of standard and higher doses of pemetrexed given to patients with ovarian or primary peritoneal cancer that has recurred; - whether standard or higher doses of pemetrexed can help patients with ovarian or primary peritoneal cancer that has recurred.

Secondary outcomes:
measure: Time to response
measure: Duration of response
measure: Time to objective progressive disease (TtPD)
measure: Time to treatment failure (TtTF)
measure: Objective PFS
measure: OS
measure: To assess safety and toxicity profile of two doses of pemetrexed in patients with ovarian cancer
