Trial summary

RATIONALE: Giving colony-stimulating factors, such as G-CSF help stem cells move from the patient's bone marrow to the blood so they can be collected and stored. Combination chemotherapy is then given to prepare the bone marrow for the stem cell transplant. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Dose Seeking Trial of Topotecan Combined With High-Dose Cyclophosphamide and Carboplatin With Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplant for the Treatment of Relapsed Ovarian Cancer and Primary Peritoneal Cancer

RATIONALE: Giving colony-stimulating factors, such as G-CSF help stem cells move from the patient's bone marrow to the blood so they can be collected and stored. Combination chemotherapy is then given to prepare the bone marrow for the stem cell transplant. The stem cells are returned to the patient to replace the blood-forming cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy.

PURPOSE: This randomized trial is studying the side effects and best dose of topotecan when given together with high-dose cyclophosphamide, and carboplatin followed by an autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplant in treating patients with recurrent ovarian cancer or primary peritoneal cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • To determine the maximum tolerated dose of topotecan hydrochloride combined with high-dose cyclophosphamide and carboplatin in the setting of autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation for relapsed, recurrent, or persistent ovarian epithelial or primary peritoneal cavity cancer.
  • To assess the toxicity of this regimen.

OUTLINE: This is a dose escalation study of topotecan.

  • Autologous hematopoietic stem cell collection: Patients receive filgrastim subcutaneously (SC) daily for 5 days. Patients undergo leukapheresis per standard practice until a minimum of 2 x10^6 CD34+ cells/kg are collected and cryopreserved.
  • High-dose chemotherapy: Patients receive topotecan hydrochloride IV, cyclophosphamide IV, and carboplatin IV over 8 hours on days -6 to -3.
  • Autologous peripheral stem cell reinfusion: Patients undergo autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation on day 0. Patients also receive sargramostim SC daily beginning on day 5 and continuing until blood counts recover.

After completion of study therapy, patients are followed monthly for 3 months, every 3 months for 2 years, and then every 6 months for 5 years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing filgrastim, carboplatin and cyclophosphamide in people with Ovarian Cancer and Peritoneal Cavity Cancer, run by Mayo Clinic.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 8 Apr 2019. 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Maximum tolerated dose of topotecan hydrochloride. 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 NCT00652691, 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 8 Apr 2019.
