About this study

Official title: A Phase II Trial of Enzalutamide in Patients With Androgen Receptor Positive (AR+) Ovarian, Primary Peritoneal or Fallopian Tube Cancer and One, Two or Three Prior Therapies

This is a Phase II study. The purpose of this study is to find out what effects, good and/or bad enzalutamide has on the patient and the cancer. All patients who enter the study will be closely monitored for side-effects. If multiple patients develop significant side effects from enzalutamide, the study may be stopped early.

Enzalutamide is an androgen-receptor inhibitor, which means that it blocks the activity of the hormone testosterone. In ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancers that express the androgen receptor, blocking the androgen-receptor may possibly slow or stop tumor growth. Enzalutamide has been studied in women with breast cancer, but this is the first study using enzalutamide for the treatment of patients with ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer.

What participants receive

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

  • EnzalutamideDrug

    All enrolled patients will be treated with enzalutamide 160mg by mouth QD. Study drugs will be self-administered by patients. A cycle is 28 days.

Study groups in NCT01974765
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
EnzalutamideExperimentalAfter signing a screening consent, patients archival tissue will be evaluated for degree of AR positivity by AR staining. Patients with no archival tissue available will undergo a biopsy (using the modality deemed most appropriate by the patient's physician) for collection of tumor tissue for AR positivity by IHC. Only AR+ patients, defined as ≥5 % positivity by IHC, will be included. All IHC testing will be performed in the MSKCC Clinical CLIA approved laboratory. All enrolled patients will be treated with enzalutamide 160 mg by mouth QD until progression of disease (POD), unacceptable toxicity or withdrawal from study. All treatments will be administered in the outpatient setting.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overall Response Rate

    Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Partial Response

    Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of Participants Assessed for Treatment-Related Adverse Events

    Number of Participants With Treatment-Related Adverse Events as Assessed by CTCAE v4.0. For each symptom i.e., frequency, severity, the worst score experienced by the patient will be recorded

    Measured: up to 2 years

  2. Median Androgen Receptor/AR Expression Levels on Tissue

    Median Androgen Receptor/AR expression levels on tissue will be determined using standard immunohistochemistry methodology

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Enzalutamide in people with Advanced Epithelial Ovarian and Recurrent Epithelial Ovarian, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 6 sites in United States.

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 26 inclusion and 8 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 28 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 28 Apr 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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: 6 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 28 Apr 2023.
