Combination Chemotherapy and Peripheral Stem Cell Transplantation in Treating Patients With Epithelial Ovarian Cancer or Primary Peritoneal Cancer
A Phase 1/2 study testing filgrastim, amifostine trihydrate and carboplatin in people with Ovarian Cancer and Primary Peritoneal Cavity Cancer, run by University of Chicago at 1 site in United States.
Trial summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more tumor cells. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: A Phase I/II Dose Escalation Trial of Carboplatin With Amifostine Pretreatment to Augment High Dose Cyclophosphamide With Autologous Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Support for the Treatment of Patients With Epithelial Ovarian Cancer
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of amifostine, carboplatin and cyclophosphamide, followed by peripheral stem cell transplantation, in treating patients with epithelial ovarian cancer or primary peritoneal cancer.
Read the detailed description
OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the maximum tolerated dose of high dose carboplatin with a fixed dose of high dose cyclophosphamide with amifostine pretreatment, and peripheral blood stem cell rescue in patients with ovarian epithelial cancer. II. Monitor engraftment kinetics such as granulocyte and platelet recovery. III. Determine the toxic effects of this regimen in this patient population. IV. Document the response of this patient population to this regimen in terms of time to progression, event free survival, and overall survival.
OUTLINE: This is a dose escalation study. Patients undergo apheresis over 2-4 days to mobilize peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC). They then receive amifostine IV over 15 minutes. Fifteen minutes later, carboplatin is administered over 30 minutes on days -6 through -3. Cyclophosphamide IV is administered 1 hour after the carboplatin infusion is completed on days -6 through -4. PBSC are infused on day 0. Filgrastim (G-CSF) is administered beginning on day 4. Cohorts of 3-6 patients are treated at each dose level. At least 15 days must pass between the day of PBSC infusion and the next dose escalation. The dose limiting toxicity (DLT) is defined as the dose producing grade 3 or 4 nonhematologic toxicity in 2 of 6 patients. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is defined as one dose level below the DLT dose. At least 6 patients are treated at the MTD. Patients are followed monthly for 6 months, every 2-3 months for 1 year, and annually until death.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: This study will accrue 28 patients over 2 years.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1/2 study testing filgrastim, amifostine trihydrate and carboplatin in people with Ovarian Cancer and Primary Peritoneal Cavity Cancer, run by University of Chicago at 1 site in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Feb 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this combined phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Maximum tolerated dose (time frame: 4 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Feb 2013.
