About this study

Official title: Triweekly Chemotherapy With Bevacizumab Versus Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy as Frontline Therapy in Advanced Ovarian Cancer

The combination of paclitaxel and carboplatin is the standard first-line chemotherapy for ovarian cancer as recommended by the NCCN Guidelines for Epithelial Ovarian Cancer, and is conventionally given via intravenous route every three weeks. The addition of target therapy (bevacizumab) has shown to improve progression free survival but not overall survival. Several trials have also demonstrated a clinically significant survival advantage associated with intraperitoneal chemotherapy compared to intravenous chemotherapy, and the best outcomes are consistently seen for patients who have no residual disease. This study aims to compare triweekly chemotherapy with bevacizumab versus intraperitoneal chemotherapy in patients with advanced stage ovarian cancer.

    Triweekly chemotherapy with bevacizumab versus intraperitoneal chemotherapy without bevacizumab

Study groups in NCT05410938
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Intraperitoneal groupThe intraperitoneal regimen was given as 135 mg/m2 intravenous paclitaxel over a 3 or 24 hours period on day 1, followed by 75-100 mg/m2 intraperitoneal cisplatin on day 2 and 60 mg/m2 intraperitoneal paclitaxel on day 8. For women with significantly impaired renal function (i.e., estimated glomerular filtration rate<50 mL/min/1.73 m2), carboplatin (area under the curve [AUC]=6) was used instead of cisplatin.
Receives: Drug: Chemotherapy
Triweekly groupThe triweekly intravenous chemotherapy regimen was given as 175 mg/m2 paclitaxel and carboplatin at a dose calculated to produce an AUC of 6 mg/mL/min on day 1. Bevacizumab was given at a dose of 7.5mg/kg intravenously on day 2 since cycle 2. The treatments were repeated every 3 weeks for 6 cycles. Those women without achievement of complete response after 6 cycles of chemotherapy might be treated with an additional 1-2 cycles of chemotherapy. Bevacizumab was continued for 12 additional cycles or until disease progression, death, unacceptable toxic effects, or patient voluntary withdrawal [5].
Receives: Drug: Chemotherapy

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression free survival

    Measured: the time interval from the date of surgery or neoadjuvant chemotherapy to clinically defined recurrence, disease progression, or the last follow-up

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Overall survival

    Measured: the time interval from the date of surgery or neoadjuvant chemotherapy to the date of death from any cause or the last follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy, Bevacizumab, Ovarian Cancer, run by Far Eastern Memorial Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 10 Jul 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 Taiwan. 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.

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?

Progression free survival (time frame: the time interval from the date of surgery or neoadjuvant chemotherapy to clinically defined recurrence, disease progression, or the last follow-up). 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 10 Jul 2023.
