About this study
Official title: Phase II Open Label Nonrandomized Trial of the Anti PD 1 Therapy Pembrolizumab With First Line Platinum Based Chemotherapy Followed by 12 Months Pembrolizumab Monotherapy for Patients With Stage III/IV Epithelial Ovarian Cancer
Phase II single arm, open label, nonrandomized study. The aim of our study is to assess the Progression Free Survival (PFS) in suboptimally cytoreduced epithelial ovarian/ primary peritoneal/ fallopian tube cancer patients treated with the novel combination of carboplatin every 21 days (triweekly) /weekly paclitaxel IV with pembrolizumab IV followed by maintenance pembrolizumab IV.
Read the detailed description
Utilization of combination standard intravenous chemotherapy with intravenous pembrolizumab (for 6 cycles) in first line treatment of patients with advanced ovarian cancer post surgery with any residual disease. This will be followed by single agent intravenous pembrolizumab (every 3 weeks) for 12 additional cycles.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Progression Free Survival (PFS) of Combination Platinum Based Therapy With Anti-Programmed Death (PD)-1 Therapy Followed by Maintenance Anti-PD-1 Therapy in Patients With Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (EOC).
Time to progression free survival (PFS) is the period from study entry (first dose of therapy) until disease progression, death or date of last contact.
All patients underwent baseline computed tomographic scans prior to initiation of therapy. The residual disease information was collected from surgical operative reports as well as post operative CT scans. Treatment responses were assessed with CA 125 at each cycle of therapy. CT scans were performed post-operatively prior to initiation of systemic therapy, at the completion of combination platinum, taxane, and pembrolizumab therapy, and at the completion of maintenance pembrolizumab therapy. CT scans were also performed with increasing CA 125 or if clinically indicated per treating physician and assessments were made using response evaluation criteria in solid tumor (RECIST) criteria defined as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or measurable increase in non-target l
Measured: measured from date of completion of primary therapy to the date of the first clinical, biochemical or radiologic evidence of disease progression or death due to any cause
Secondary outcomes (1)
Monitor Quality of Life During Combination Therapy and Single Agent Maintenance Therapy With Anti-PD-1 Therapy With the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy- Ovarian (FACT- O) Surveys at Intervals During Therapy.
Each cycle is 21 days. All participants were asked to complete FACT-O surveys at baseline/ time of enrollment, at 3 months, 6 months and 18 months from initiation of therapy.
FACT-O is a validated 26-item summary score 112 points that captures the FACT-General (FACT-G) QOL dimensions of Physical Well-Being (7 items), Functional Well-Being (7 items), and an Ovarian Cancer Subscale (12 items). FACT-0 is a survey with 39 items self administered survey. Each item is scored on 5 point Likert-type scale. The FACT-0 scoring range is from 0-44. The subscale scoring ranges for FACT-G is 0-108. The higher the total score the better the patient well-being. the outcome measure data represent FACT-G scoring as it is the section that pertains to QOL.

Time to progression free survival (PFS) is the period from study entry (first dose of therapy) until disease progression, death or date of last contact. All patients underwent baseline computed tomographic scans prior to initiation of therapy. The residual disease information was collected from surgical operative reports as well as post operative CT scans. Treatment responses were assessed with CA 125 at each cycle of therapy.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Pembrolizumab, Carboplatin and Paclitaxel in people with Ovarian Cancer, run by Medical College of Wisconsin at 2 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 10 inclusion and 21 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 26 Feb 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 2 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 22 Jun 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?
Progression Free Survival (PFS) of Combination Platinum Based Therapy With Anti-Programmed Death (PD)-1 Therapy Followed by Maintenance Anti-PD-1 Therapy in Patients With Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (EOC). (time frame: measured from date of completion of primary therapy to the date of the first clinical, biochemical or radiologic evidence of disease progression or death due to any cause). 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 NCT02766582, which also lists 50 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 26 Feb 2024.
