  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with biopsy proven stage IIIC/IV epithelial ovarian cancer, primary peritoneal, fallopian tube carcinoma. If a core biopsy is not possible, fine-needle aspirate showing adenocarcinoma is acceptable in the setting of a pelvic mass and presence of metastasis outside the pelvis measuring at least 2 cm, regional lymph-node metastasis or proof of stage IV disease, and ratio of CA 125 to CEA greater than 25. If CA 125 to CEA ratio is 25 or lower, barium enema, gastroscopy, and mammography must be negative.
  • Patients must have adequate:
  • Bone marrow function: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) greater than or equal to 1,500/μl, equivalent to Common Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events v3.0(CTCAE) Grade 1. This ANC cannot have been induced or supported by granulocyte colony stimulating factors.
  • Platelets greater than or equal to 100,000/μl, CTCAE Grade 0-1. Renal function: Creatinine ≤1.5 x institutional upper limit of normal ULN), CTCAE Grade 1.
  • Hepatic function: Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN, CTCAE Grade 1.SGOT and alkaline phosphatase ≤ 2.5 x ULN, CTCAE Grade 1.
  • Neurologic function: Neuropathy (sensory and motor) less than or equal to CTCAE Grade 1.

  • Blood coagulation parameters: PT such that international normalized ratio (INR) is ≤ 1.5 (or an in-range INR, usually between 2 and 3, if a patient is on a stable dose of therapeutic warfarin for management of venous thrombosis) and a PTT <1.2 x ULN.
  • Patients must have a World Health Organization Performance Status ≤2.
  • Patients must be a candidate for surgery.
  • An approved informed consent must be signed by the patient.

Who cannot join

  • Patients who have received prior radiotherapy to any portion of the abdominal cavity or pelvis are excluded. Prior radiation for localized cancer of the breast, head and neck, or skin is permitted, provided that it was completed more than three years prior to registration, and the patient remains free of recurrent or metastatic disease.
  • Patients who have received prior chemotherapy for any abdominal or pelvic tumor are excluded. Patients may have received prior adjuvant chemotherapy for localized breast cancer, provided that it was completed more than three years prior to registration, and that the patient remains free of recurrent or metastatic disease.
  • Patients with a known synchronous primary endometrial cancer, or a past history of primary endometrial cancer, are excluded, unless all of the following conditions are met: Stage not greater than IA, no more than superficial myometrial invasion, without vascular or lymphatic invasion, no poorly differentiated subtypes (including papillary serous, clear cell or other FIGO Grade 3 lesions).
  • With the exception of non-melanoma skin cancer and other specific malignancies noted above, patients with other invasive malignancies who had (or have) any evidence of the other cancer present within the last five years or whose previous cancer treatment contraindicates this therapy are excluded.
  • Patients with acute hepatitis or active infection that requires parenteral antibiotics are excluded.
  • Patients with World Health Organization Performance Status of 3 or 4.
Show all 10Show fewer
  • Patients who are pregnant or nursing.
  • Patients under the age of 18.
  • Patients with a pelvic mass of any size that is causing pain, or other subjective symptoms that are intolerable to the patient.
  • Patients who are not candidates for interval surgical debulking secondary to significant medical comorbidities.

About this study

Official title: Neoadjuvant Platinum-based Chemotherapy in Advanced Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, and Primary Peritoneal Carcinoma Trial Protocol

This is a prospective study to evaluate the hypothesis that platinum-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval surgical debulking with platinum-based adjuvant chemotherapy is associated with improved maximal surgical cytoreduction rates, comparable survival, decreased morbidity, and increased quality of life in patients with International Federation of Gynecologic Oncology stages IIIC and IV ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer when compared to historical controls and to evaluate the hypothesis that cancer induced inflammation is a predictor of poor prognosis and response to therapy in this group of ovarian cancer patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing neoadjuvant chemotherapy in people with Primary Peritoneal Carcinoma and Ovarian Carcinoma, run by Rachel Miller 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 10 inclusion and 10 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 14 Dec 2020. 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 14 Dec 2020). 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?

Percentage of Patients That Achieve Maximal Surgical Debulking (time frame: 5 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 14 Dec 2020.
