About this study

Official title: A Randomized Phase II/III Trial of Intravenous (IV) Paclitaxel Weekly Plus IV Carboplatin Once Every 3 Weeks Versus IV Paclitaxel Weekly Plus Intraperitoneal (IP) Carboplatin Once Every 3 Weeks in Women With Epithelial Ovarian, Fallopian Tube or Primary Peritoneal Cancer

The purpose of this study is:

Phase A: To confirm the feasibility of paclitaxel administered by intravenous (IV) infusion weekly plus concurrent carboplatin administered by intraperitoneal (IP) injection once every 3 weeks (dd-TCip therapy).

Phase B: To compare the efficacy and safety of the following two treatment regimens as first-line chemotherapy in women with epithelial ovarian, Fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized, multicenter international study. Patient are stratified according to Residual tumor diameter([0cm(No residual)] vs. [0cm<residual<1cm] vs. [1cm<residual<2cm] vs. [>2 cm]), FIGO stage(StageII vs. III vs. IV) and institution. Patient randomized to one of the treatment arms described below.

RegimenI(Standard treatment: dd-TCiv therapy): Paclitaxel administered by IV infusion weekly plus concurrent carboplatin administered by IV infusion once every 3 weeks

RegimenII(Study treatment: dd-TCip therapy): Paclitaxel administered by IV infusion weekly plus concurrent carboplatin administered by IP injection once every 3 weeks

The 3-week period (21 days) is 1 cycle. Protocol treatment basically comprises 6 cycles. IDS is allowed to be performed after 3, 4 or 5 cycles of the protocol treatment. In such cases, the protocol treatment must be restarted within 8 weeks after IDS. If IDS is performed, patients can receive up to 3 additional cycles of the protocol treatment after IDS. If interval debulking surgery (IDS) is performed after 3, 4 or 5 cycles, the patients can receive up to 3 additional cycles of the protocol treatment. A total of 6 to 8 cycles will be repeated.

The analysis of efficacy will be performed on all randomized subjects in accordance with the intention-to-treat (ITT) principle. In order to assess the robustness of the results, the same analyses will be done using all randomized subjects who satisfy the eligibility criteria. The analysis of safety will be performed on all subjects who have received at least one dose of study treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free survival(PFS)

    Measured: From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed until 510 events are observed or until 3 years from the last patient is randomized to the study

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Overall survival (OS)

    Measured: weekly during the protocl treatment, then every 3 months for the first 2 years, 6-month for the following 2 years, and once a year thereafter

  2. Tumor response (only patients with evaluable disease)

    Measured: every 2 cycles [after 2 cycles, after 4 cycles, after 6 cycles, (after 8 cycles)], the time of discontinuation of the protocol treatment and then at least annually during follow-up

  3. Adverse events

    Measured: weekly during the protocl treatment, then every 3 months for the first 2 years, 6-month for the following 2 years, and once a year thereafter

  4. Treatment completion rate

    Measured: After the last cycle of the protocol teatment

  5. Quality of Life (QOL) assessments

    Measured: baseline, after 3 cycles, 6 cycles, 36 week, 60 weeks and 84 weeks from the start of protocol treatment

  6. Cost-utility analysis

    Measured: baseline, after 3 cycles, 6 cycles, 36 week, 60 weeks and 84 weeks from the start of protocol treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Paclitaxel(intravenous) + Carboplatin(intravenous) and Paclitaxel(intravenous) + Carboplatin(intraperitoneal) in people with Epithelial Ovarian Cancer and Fallopian Tube Cancer, run by Gynecologic Oncology Trial & Investigation Consortium at 62 sites in 6 countries.

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 18 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 15 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 62 sites in Japan, South Korea, Singapore, United States, Hong Kong and 1 more country. 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 combined 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.

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?

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?

Progression-free survival(PFS) (time frame: From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed until 510 events are observed or until 3 years from the last patient is randomized to the study). 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 NCT01506856, which also lists 13 linked publications.

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 15 Sep 2023.
