Trial summary

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. It is not yet known whether monoclonal antibody therapy is more effective than observation for ovarian cancer or primary peritoneal cancer that is in remission. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Multicenter Randomized Survival Study of Monoclonal Antibody Radioimmunotherapy: A Multinational Study in Patients With Ovarian Carcinoma Using the HMFG1 Antibody Labeled With 90Yttrium

RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. It is not yet known whether monoclonal antibody therapy is more effective than observation for ovarian cancer or primary peritoneal cancer that is in remission.

PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of monoclonal antibody therapy with that of observation in treating patients who have ovarian cancer or primary peritoneal cancer in remission following surgery and chemotherapy.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the efficacy of yttrium Y 90 monoclonal antibody HMFG1, in terms of survival, in patients with ovarian epithelial carcinoma in remission after debulking surgery and platinum-based chemotherapy.
  • Determine the toxicity and tolerability of this treatment regimen in these patients.
  • Determine the quality of life of patients treated with this regimen.
  • Evaluate this treatment regimen, in terms of the time to relapse, ECOG performance status, frequency of hospitalization, changes in concurrent medication, and incidence and severity of adverse events, in this patient population.

OUTLINE: This is a randomized, parallel, multicenter study. Patients are randomized to one of two treatment arms.

  • Arm I: Patients receive standard therapy (observation).
  • Arm II: After imaging studies of the peritoneal cavity to verify adequate fluid distribution, patients receive yttrium Y 90 monoclonal antibody HMFG1 intraperitoneally over 1 minute.

Quality of life is assessed in all patients prior to randomization, at weeks 4 and 8, at 3 months, and then every 3 months thereafter.

Patients in arm I are followed at weeks 1, 4, and 8. Patients in arm II are followed weekly for 6 weeks and at weeks 8 and 12. All patients are followed every 3 months for 3 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 420 patients (210 per treatment arm) will be accrued for this study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing yttrium Y 90 monoclonal antibody HMFG1 in people with Ovarian Cancer and Primary Peritoneal Cavity Cancer, run by Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Sep 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 Kingdom. 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 phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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.

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 17 Sep 2013.
