About this study

Official title: Stage IIIC Unresectable Epithelial Ovarian/Tubal Cancer With Partial or Complete Response After 1st Line Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy (3 Cycles CBDCA+Paclitaxel): a Phase 3 Prospective Randomized Study Comparing Cytoreductive Surgery + Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (CDDP+Paclitaxel) + 3 Cycles CBDCA+Paclitaxel vs Cytoreductive Surgery Alone + 3 Cycles CBDCA+Paclitaxel.

Aim of the Study is to compare two-years disease-free survival of Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) and Hyperthermic IntraPEritoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC, CDDP+Paclitaxel) vs CRS alone in Stage IIIC unresectable epithelial tubal/ovarian cancer with partial or complete response after 3 cycles of 1st line chemotherapy (CBDCA +Paclitaxel).

Read the detailed description

Eligible: Female adult women (18 to 70 years old) patients, with epithelial ovarian/tubal (FIGO stage IIIC) with a Fagotti modified Laparoscopic Scoring System ≥ 4 who will show a complete or partial clinical response(RECIST 1.1) after 3 cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (Carboplatin+Paclitaxel).

Duration of recruitment: 2 years. Sample size has been calculated to reach a confidence level of 95% with a power of 80%, considering a 45% and 75% disease-free survival at 2 years in CRS and CRS+HIPEC group respectively.

Sample size will be 47 patients for each group. After CRS, only patients with adequate cytoreduction (CC 0-1, residual tumor ≤ 2.5mm) will be randomized. Patients with suboptimal cytoreduction (CC 2-3, residual tumor > 2.5mm) are not suitable for randomization.

The drug schedule elected in the current study is Cisplatin (CDDP) (100 mg/m2 of body surface area) + Paclitaxel (175mg/m2 of body surface area).

Closed/open technique, as preferred. Duration: 90 minutes. Mean Intra-abdominal Temperature: 42°C. Primary Endpoint: 2-years disease-free survival.

Secondary Endpoints:

1-year, 3- and 5-years disease-free survival;

1 month, 1-year, 3- and 5-years overall survival; toxicity induced by HIPEC using the NCI CTC criteria; one month and six months morbidity; duration of operation; return of bowel function; length of hospital stay; return to normal activity; six months and one year QOL, using the SF-36 v1.0; percentage of patients in both arms completing the scheduled postoperative chemotherapy; Subgroup analysis: PCI ≤ 15; pts. ≤ 40yrs.

Main topics of this Study:

Focused only on upfront treatment of primary disease. Select platinum-sensible patients (responders to platinum-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy).

Take advantage of NACT to maximize chances for cytoreduction. Standardized strategy for CRS: radical surgery, associated to any surgical procedure needed to obtain a zero or ≤ 0.25cm residual tumor (peritonectomy, bowel resection, diaphragmatic stripping, gastric resection, etc.). Pelvic and peri-aortic lymphadenectomy is not chosen as standard procedure, but should warrant adequate staging.

Compare only the effect of HIPEC.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Cytoreductive Surgery and HIPEC and CRS alone in people with Ovarian Neoplasms, run by A.O. Ospedale Papa Giovanni XXIII at 5 sites in 2 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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Aug 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Italy, Germany. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Luca Ansaloni, MD (+390352673477, lansaloni@hpg23.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Disease free survival (time frame: 2 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 NCT01628380, 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 28 Aug 2014.
