About this study

Official title: A Randomised, Placebo-controlled, Trial of Concurrent Cediranib [AZD2171] (With Platinum-based Chemotherapy) and Concurrent and Maintenance Cediranib in Women With Platinum-sensitive Relapsed Ovarian Cancer

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of cediranib in combination with standard chemotherapy, in patients who have relapsed with ovarian, fallopian tube or epithelial cancer, after first line platinum based treatment.

Read the detailed description

ICON6 is a randomised three-arm, two stage, double-blind, placebo-controlled multicentre Gynaecologic Cancer InterGroup (GCIG) phase III trial.

All patients will receive 6 cycles of platinum-based chemotherapy. Trial drug will be administered for up to 18 months from randomisation or until progression, whichever is sooner. Patients who have not progressed at 18 months from randomisation can continue Trial Drug until progression, if in the opinion of the clinician and the patient there is continuing clinical benefit.

Patients in Arm A (the reference arm) will receive a platinum-based chemotherapy regimen plus a daily oral placebo tablet for the duration of the chemotherapy and up to 18 months from randomisation or until progression.

Patients in Arm B (concurrent cediranib arm) will also receive a platinum-based chemotherapy regimen plus daily oral cediranib during chemotherapy only, and then an oral daily placebo tablet up to 18 months from randomisation or until progression.

Patients in Arm C (concurrent and maintenance cediranib arm) will also receive a platinum-based chemotherapy regimen plus oral cediranib daily during chemotherapy and then continued up to 18 months from randomisation or until progression.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing cediranib in people with Ovarian Cancer, run by Medical Research Council at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 21 inclusion and 24 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Sep 2015. 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 United Kingdom. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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: Apr 2013). 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 NCT00532194, which also lists 5 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 23 Sep 2015.
