  • Ages 19 years and older
  • Women only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients must have had a complete clinical response (negative clinical examination, CA125 and CT scan of chest, abdomen and pelvis) to front-line therapy for stage II/III ovarian, primary peritoneal or Fallopian tube carcinoma. This will have included initial surgery followed by combined IV/IP chemotherapy with cisplatin and paclitaxel. Patients must have had a minimum of three courses of IP therapy with both paclitaxel and cisplatin
  • Second surgery to be performed no more than 3 months from last course of initial chemotherapy
  • Age greater than 18 years and negative pregnancy if has child-bearing potential
  • GOG performance status less than 2
  • Medically fit for surgery
  • Patients must have normal organ and marrow function as defined in the protocol hepatic function Total Bilirubin ULN AST and ALT and Alkaline Phosphatase must be within the range allowing for eligibility. In determining eligibility the more abnormal of the two values AST or ALT) should be used.
  • Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.
  • The effects of docetaxel on the developing human fetus are unknown. For this reason and because taxanes are known to be teratogenic, women of child-bearing potential must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately.

Who cannot join

  • Patients who have completed front-line therapy for ovarian cancer more than 3 months prior to HIPEC.
  • Patients receiving any other investigational agents.
  • Patients with stage IV disease including previous parenchymal liver disease, brain metastasis or cytologically-confirmed chest metastasis
  • Patients with a history of severe hypersensitivity reaction to Taxotere® or other drugs formulated with polysorbate 80. History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition used in this study in addition to Taxotere.
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
  • More than grade 2 peripheral neuropathy from prior chemotherapy
Show all 11Show fewer
  • Pregnant, breast-feeding or known to be HIV positive
  • Prior malignancy other than non-melanomatous skin cancer more than 5 years ago

About this study

Official title: A Phase I Study of Intraperitoneal Hyperthermic Docetaxel at the Time of Second Look Surgery Following Front-Line Normothermic Intraperitoneal and Intravenous Cisplatin/Paclitaxel for Patients With Stage II and III Ovarian Carcinoma

The primary objective is to assess the maximum tolerated dose of docetaxel administered intraperitoneally with heat at the time of second-look surgery in patients with stage II/III ovarian carcinoma.

Read the detailed description

This is a phase I study of intraperitoneal hyperthermic docetaxel given at the time of second look surgery following front-line normothermic intraperitoneal and intravenous cisplatin/paclitaxel for patients with stage II and III ovarian carcinoma. The primary objectives are to assess the maximum tolerated dose of docetaxel administered intraperitoneally with heat at this time and assess the toxicity and morbidity associated with this treatment. Eligible patients will have had a complete clinical response to front-line therapy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing docetaxel in people with Ovarian Carcinoma, run by University of Louisville 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?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 11 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jan 2018. 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 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.

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?

Assess the MTD of docetaxel administered intraperitoneally with heat at the time of second-look surgery in patients with stage II/III ovarian carcinoma following surgery and normothermic intraperitoneal and intravenous cisplatin and paclitaxel. (time frame: 6 months-5 years). 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 NCT00474669, 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 9 Jan 2018.
