About this study

Official title: A Prospective Trial of COXEN Chemotherapy Prediction in Persistent and Recurrent Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, and Peritoneal Carcinomas

The purpose of this study is to determine if the COXEN algorithm, using the diagnostic device Affymetrix GeneChip, is able to predict which chemotherapies will be best for treatment of recurrent or persistent ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.

Read the detailed description

The current proposal seeks to apply and extend this novel genomic prediction technique to finding better chemotherapeutic options for recurrent ovarian cancer using individual patients' gene-expression signatures of chemosensitivity. The utility of the COXEN technique has been validated and found to accurately predict 1) the chemosensitivity of an independent panel of 40 bladder cancer cell lines; 2) activity of each of the >45K candidate compounds in the NCI-60 drug screening database, which resulted in the identification of a highly-effective novel compound for bladder cancer and patients' responses and survival on 12 historical clinical trials of combination chemotherapy. In particular, the GEMs of breast cancer can be used to stratify both clinical response and overall patient survival with a striking difference between the predicted responders vs. predicted non-responders in 5 independent chemotherapeutic trials of breast cancer. The next step is to test the prediction model in recurrent ovarian cancer.

What participants receive

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

  • COXEN analysis for chemotherapy predictionDevice

    Also called Affymetrix genechip

    Using the affymetrix genechip along with the COXEN algorithm the subject's treatment will be determined

What is being measured

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

  1. overall response rate

    patient will have CT scans and CA 125 drawn to track response to chemotherapy

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. overall survival

    patient will be tracked for life

    Measured: subject lifetime

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing COXEN analysis for chemotherapy prediction in people with Ovarian Neoplasms and Fallopian Tube Neoplasms, run by University of Virginia.

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 4 inclusion and 2 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jun 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

overall response rate (time frame: 12 months). 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 6 Jun 2014.
