About this study

Official title: A Prospective Randomized Phase III Trial of Carboplatin/Gemcitabine/Bevacizumab vs. Carboplatin/Pegylated Liposomal Doxorubicin/Bevacizumab in Patients With Platinum-sensitive Recurrent Ovarian Cancer

Evaluation of the best therapeutic index for patients with platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer when treatment with bevacizumab and gemcitabine/carboplatin or with bevacizumab and PLD/carboplatin.

Being tested
Carboplatin, PLD, Bevacizumab
Keywords
Ovarian Carcinoma, Bevacizumab, Gemcitabine, PLD, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin, Carboplatin, best therapeutic index, progression-free survival
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT01837251
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Control ArmNo interventionPatients receive bevacizumab 15 mg/kg iv on day 1 followed by gemcitabine 1000mg/m² iv on day 1 \& 8 and carboplatin AUC4 iv on day 1 every 3 weeks for up to 6 cycles in the absence of progression disease or unacceptable toxicities. Patients then continue to receive bevacizumab 15 mg/kg iv every 3 weeks until progression disease or unacceptable toxicities.
Research ArmExperimentalPatients receive bevacizumab 10 mg/kg iv on day 1 \& 15 followed by PLD 30mg/m² iv on day 1 carboplatin AUC4 iv on day 1 every 4 weeks for up to 6 cycles in the absence of progression disease or unacceptable toxicities. Patients then continue to receive bevacizumab 15 mg/kg iv every 3 weeks until progression disease or unacceptable toxicities.
Receives: Drug: Carboplatin; Drug: PLD; Biological: Bevacizumab

What is being measured

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

  1. investigator-determined progression-free survival

    Measured: every 12 weeks until progression or up to 30 months (whichever occurs first)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. biological progression-free survival by serum CA 125

    Measured: every 3 weeks until progression or up to 30 months (whichever occurs first)

  2. Health related Quality of Life (QoL)

    Measured: Baseline and then every 12 weeks until investigator-determined progresssion-free survival and thereafter at every visit for th 5-years follow-up or death (whichever occurs first)

  3. Safety and Tolerability, i.e. type, frequency, severity and duration o adverse reactions

    Measured: every 3 weeks, 30 months after start of treatment or if applicable 4 weeks after last dose of bevacizumab (whichever occurs later)

  4. Overall Survival

    Measured: every 3 weeks during treatment with bevacizumab, thereafter every 6 months; for up 30 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Carboplatin, PLD and Bevacizumab in people with Recurrent Platinum-sensitive Ovarian Cancer, run by AGO Research GmbH at 193 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 10 inclusion and 23 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 13 Jul 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 193 sites in Germany, France, Australia, Austria, United Kingdom 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 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?

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?

investigator-determined progression-free survival (time frame: every 12 weeks until progression or up to 30 months (whichever occurs first)). 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 NCT01837251, 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 13 Jul 2021.
