Trial summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining liposomal doxorubicin and carboplatin in treating patients who have recurrent… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Phase I Trial of Combination Carboplatin and Lipsomal Doxorubicin (Doxil) In Recurrent Ovarian, Fallopian Tube or Primary Peritoneal Cancer

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combining liposomal doxorubicin and carboplatin in treating patients who have recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the maximum tolerated dose of doxorubicin HCl liposome (Doxil) when combined with carboplatin in patients with recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. II. Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients. III. Determine the rate of response in patients treated with this regimen.

OUTLINE: This is a dose escalation, multicenter study of doxorubicin HCl liposome (Doxil). Patients receive Doxil IV over 1 hour and carboplatin IV on day 1. Treatment continues every 4 weeks for a minimum of 6 courses in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression. Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of Doxil until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the highest dose at which 0 or 1 of 6 patients experience dose limiting toxicity. Patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years, then every 6 months for 3 years, and then annually thereafter until recurrence or death.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 24 patients will be accrued for this study over 1 year.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing carboplatin and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride in people with Fallopian Tube Cancer and Ovarian Cancer, run by Gynecologic Oncology Group.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jul 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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.

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 9 Jul 2013.
