About this study

Official title: Olaparib Beyond Progression Compared to Platinum Chemotherapy After Secondary Cytoreductive Surgery in Recurrent Ovarian Cancer Patients. The Phase III Randomized, Open Label MITO 35b Study: a Project of the MITO-MANGO Groups.

MITO 35b is designed as randomized, open label, phase III trial that aims to assess the efficacy of olaparib maintenance beyond progression compered to standard platinum-based chemotherapy after secondary cytoreductive surgery.

The target population of this study are ovarian cancer patients who experience a disease recurrence or progression to a first line maintenance therapy with PARPi; at progression patients must have received a secondary cytoreduction according to clinical practice.

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    PFS as defined by the Investigator using RECIST 1.1, as the time frame from randomization to progression or death for any cause,whichever comes first

    Measured: until progression disease ( up to 5 years )

  2. Progession free survival 2 (PFS2)

    PFS as defined by the Investigator using RECIST 1.1, as the time frame from randomization to second progression or death for any cause

    Measured: until progression disease ( up to 5 years )

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Overall survival

    OS as defined by the Investigator as the time from randomization to death for any cause, whichever comes first.

    Measured: 5 years

  2. Determination of changes in quality of life

    EORTC QLQ-C30, a quality questionnaire, composed by 30 items graded from 1 (not at all) to 4 (very much).

    Measured: At baseline, at Day 1 of each Cycle (during treatment) until 6 months, then at 9 and 12 months (up to 12 months).Each cycle is 28 days

  3. Determination of changes in patient-reported outcome (PRO) symptomatic toxicities

    PRO-CTCAE questionnaire, composed by 78 items graded from 1 (not at all) to 5 (very much).

    Measured: At baseline, at Day 1 of each Cycle (during treatment) until 6 months, then at 9 and 12 months (up to 12 months. Each cycle is 28 days

  4. Changes in patient-reported outcome (PRO) of cancer-related financial toxicity

    The PROFFITquestionnaire consists of 16 items,graded from 1 (not at all) to 4 (very much).

    Measured: t baseline, at day 1 of each Cycle (during treatment) until 6 months, then at 9 and 12 months (up to 12 months). Each cycle is 28 days

  5. Number of participants with treatment-related side effects

    Number of participants with treatment-related side effects

    Number of participants with treatment-related side effects graded according to Common Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0

    Measured: At baseline, day 1 of each cycle until progression disease (up to 5 years)].Each cycle is 28 days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Olaparib and Chemotherapy drug in people with Ovarian Cancer, run by National Cancer Institute, Naples at 1 site in Italy.

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 0 inclusion and 22 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Mar 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Italy. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Clorinda Schettino, MD (003908159031791, c.schettino@istitutotumori.na.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression-free survival (PFS) (time frame: until progression disease ( up to 5 years )). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05255471, 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 24 Mar 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
