The primary purpose of this study is to determine the maximally tolerated dose and spectrum of toxicities encountered with intraperitoneal delivery of a RGD modified conditionally replicative adenovirus (Ad5-Delta 24RGD) in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer. Secondary objectives : * To determine the biologic effects encountered with intraperitoneal delivery of Ad5-Delta 24RGD in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer cells * To determine immunologic response generated against Ad5-Delta 24RGD when administered intraperitoneally to patients with recurrent ovarian adenocarcinoma * To determine potential clinical activity of Ad5-Delta 24RGD when administered intraperitoneally to patients with recurrent ovarian adenocarcinoma

'Tenckhoff catheter' will be placed into the abdominal cavity by a minor surgical procedure performed in the Radiology Department.
Within two weeks before the start of the study, a physical exam, blood tests, removal of fluid from abdominal cavity through the catheter and a CT scan of abdomen and pelvis will be performed. The procedure will involve receiving the Ad5-delta24RGD virus once a day for 3 days. The virus will be put into the abdominal cavity through a 'Tenckhoff catheter'.
