Trial summary

Patients who have this kind of cancer are often treated with several drugs. Carboplatin is one that seems to work for many treatment cycles. Even though it may work against the cancer, the patient can become allergic to it. If that happens, they would have to stop taking the drug. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Standard Infusion Carboplatin Versus Prophylactic Extended Infusion Carboplatin in theTreatment of Patients With Recurrent, Ovary, Fallopian Tube, and Primary Peritoneal Cancer

Patients who have this kind of cancer are often treated with several drugs. Carboplatin is one that seems to work for many treatment cycles. Even though it may work against the cancer, the patient can become allergic to it. If that happens, they would have to stop taking the drug. The standard way to give carboplatin is by vein over 30 minutes. Some people have been given carboplatin over 3 hours rather than 30 minutes and had fewer allergies than expected.

The purpose of this study is to:

Find out if giving carboplatin over three hours can prevent the allergy.

See if medicine given before the carboplatin can help reduce the risk of allergic reactions.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • carboplatinDrug

    Carboplatin Standard 30-minute infusion. All patients will receive identical chemotherapy premedications including dexamethasone 20mg the night before and morning of infusion, montelukast 10mg once daily for three days prior to carboplatin infusion, and ranitidine 50mg (or famotidine 20mg IV)IV and diphenhydramine 50mg IV before carboplatin infusion.

  • carboplatinDrug

    Extended 3-hour infusion carboplatin. All patients will receive identical chemotherapy premedications including dexamethasone 20mg the night before and morning of infusion, montelukast 10mg once daily for three days prior to carboplatin infusion, and ranitidine 50mg IV (or famotidine 20mg IV) and diphenhydramine 50mg IV before carboplatin infusion.

Standard 30-minute infusionExperimentalThis is a non-blinded randomized study comparing standard 30-minute infusion carboplatin to extended 3-hour infusion carboplatin in women with recurrent, ovary, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancer who will be treated with a carboplatin containing chemotherapy regimen.
Receives: Drug: carboplatin
extended 3-hour infusionExperimentalThis is a non-blinded randomized study comparing standard 30-minute infusion carboplatin to extended 3-hour infusion carboplatin in women with recurrent, ovary, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancer who will be treated with a carboplatincontaining chemotherapy regimen.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With and Without Hypersensitivity Reaction

    The primary objective of this study is to determine if patients have lower rates of hypersensitivity reactions by comparing the number of participants with and without hypersensitivity reaction

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. The Number of People With Successful Planned Treatment Completion of Carboplatin in Each Group

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Perform a Cost-identification Analysis of Extended Infusion Carboplatin to Estimate the Cost Per Hypersensitivity Reaction Prevented.

    Measured: 2 years

  3. The Odds Ratio for the Relationship of Baseline Variables to the Carboplatin Hypersensitivity Rate

    Perform exploratory analyses to correlate hypersensitivity rate to history of atopy, prior drug allergies, number of lifetime platinum cycles, duration since last platinum, and concomitant chemotherapy agent.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing carboplatin in people with Ovarian Cancer and Fallopian Tube Cancer, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

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 9 inclusion and 6 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 2 Oct 2019. 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 States. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 2 Oct 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants With and Without Hypersensitivity Reaction (time frame: 2 years). 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 2 Oct 2019.
