About this study

Official title: A Phase II Study of Oxaliplatin Combined With Continuous Infusion Topotecan as Chemotherapy for Patients With Previously Treated Ovarian Cancer

This phase II trial is studying how well giving oxaliplatin together with topotecan works in treating patients with ovarian epithelial cancer, primary peritoneal cancer, or fallopian tube cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as oxaliplatin and topotecan, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Estimate the overall clinical response rate (complete and partial responses) in patients with previously treated ovarian epithelial, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer treated with oxaliplatin and topotecan.

II. Determine the toxic effects in patients treated with this regimen.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Estimate the time to progression and overall clinical response duration in patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: This is an open-label, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to response to prior platinum therapy (resistant vs sensitive).

Patients receive oxaliplatin IV over 2 hours on days 1 and 15 and topotecan IV continuously on days 1-14. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed at 30 days.

Being tested

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Clinical Response Rate (Complete and Partial Response by RECIST and/or CA [Cancer Antigen] 125)

    Tumor response was assessed every two cycles by CT/MRI using RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors) criteria. Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.0) for target lesions: Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR): >= 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter (LD) of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.

    Measured: Every two cycles for up to 24 weeks.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Time to Disease Progression by RECIST and/or CA 125

    Time to disease progression by RECIST and/or CA 125

    Measured: Tumor measurements will be performed every 8 weeks until the date of first documented progression up to 100 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing oxaliplatin and topotecan in people with Recurrent Ovarian Epithelial Cancer, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 2 sites 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?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 18 exclusion criteria. 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Nov 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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 phase mean?

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 27 Nov 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Clinical Response Rate (Complete and Partial Response by RECIST and/or CA [Cancer Antigen] 125) (time frame: Every two cycles for up to 24 weeks.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00313612, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 27 Nov 2015.
