Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • Women only
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Histologically confirmed epithelial ovarian carcinoma. Patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis are also eligible, without necessarily having histological proof of a primary source in the ovary, provided that the tumour is not mucin-secreting, and that there is no evidence of a primary fallopian tube cancer (see exclusion criteria).
  • Female, aged 18 or over- FIGO stages Ic-IV with or without successful cytoreductive surgery at staging laparotomy. Stage Ic patients will be limited to those with malignant cells in ascitic fluid, peritoneal washings or with tumour on the surface of the ovary
  • Patients with ruptured capsule as the only evidence of stage Ic will not be eligible for entry into the study.

Who cannot join

  • ECOG performance status > 2
  • Prior treatment with chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
  • Patients with, pre-existing fluid retention such as pleural effusion, pericardial effusion and ascites are not excluded from the study, but should be monitored closely for any deterioration. Efforts should be made to determine by cytological analysis whether any significant pre-existing fluid collections are due to ovarian cancer, and subsequent drainage is recommended before initiating chemotherapy.
  • Inadequate bone marrow function defined as neutrophils < 1.5 x 109/l or platelets < 100 x 109/l.
  • Inadequate renal function as defined by serum creatinine > 1.25 x upper limit of normal.
  • Inadequate liver function as defined by bilirubin > upper limit of normal or AST/ALT > 1.5 x upper limit of normal or ALP > 3 x upper limit of normal.

  • Concurrent severe and/or uncontrolled co-morbid medical condition (i.e. uncontrolled infection, hypertension, ischaemic heart disease, myocardial infarction within previous 6 months, congestive heart failure)
  • Patients with mixed mesodermal tumours.
  • Patients with borderline ovarian tumours or tumours termed 'possibly malignant'.
  • Adenocarcinoma of unknown origin, if histologically shown to be mucin-secreting cancer or thought to be possible primary fallopian tube carcinoma.
  • History of previous malignancy within the previous 5 years (except curatively treated carcinoma in situ of the uterine cervix, or basal cell carcinoma of the skin), or concurrent malignancy (e.g. coexisting endometrial cancer) .
  • History of prior serious allergic reactions (e.g. anaphylactic shock).
  • History of other relative contraindications to corticosteroid administration
  • Pregnant or lactating women (or potentially fertile women not using adequate contraception).
  • Symptomatic peripheral neuropathy > NCIC-CTC grade II.
  • The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a patient's potential participation in a clinical trial.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

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

  1. The response rate will be determined by the number of patients with complete and partial responses according to the Modified SWOG Response Criteria. The progression free survival, duration of response and survival are evaluated.

Timeline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Docetaxel in people with Ovarian Neoplasms, run by Sanofi at 1 site in South Korea.

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 3 inclusion and 16 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 4 Oct 2007. 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 South Korea. 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?

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?

The response rate will be determined by the number of patients with complete and partial responses according to the Modified SWOG Response Criteria. The progression free survival, duration of response and survival are evaluated.. 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 4 Oct 2007.
