About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Open-Label, Phase II Study Assessing the Efficacy and the Safety of Bevacizumab in Neoadjuvant Therapy in Patients With FIGO Stage IIIC/IV Ovarian, Tubal or Peritoneal Adenocarcinoma, Initially Unresectable

This randomized, open-label study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of neoadjuvant bevacizumab in participants with initially unresectable, FIGO stage IIIC/IV ovarian, tubal, or peritoneal cancer. Participants will be randomized to receive 8 cycles of carboplatin plus paclitaxel with or without bevacizumab before surgery (interval debulking surgery [IDS]). Surgery will be scheduled 28 days after the last course of neoadjuvant treatment in participants with resectable cancer. Participants with unresectable cancer will go through the follow-up period. All participants will receive bevacizumab for Cycles 6 to 26.

What participants receive

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

  • CarboplatinDrug

    Carboplatin will be administered at a dose calculated according to the Calvert formula ([participant's glomerular filtration rate + 25] multiplied by the target area under the concentration-time curve [AUC] of 5 milligrams per milliliter per minute [mg/mL/min]), as intravenous [IV] infusion over 30-60 minutes [min] every 3 weeks).

  • PaclitaxelDrug

    Paclitaxel will be administered at a dose of 175 milligrams per meter-squared [mg/m^2] as IV infusion over 3 hours using a rate controlling device every 3 weeks, or at a dose of 80 mg/m^2 as IV infusion over 1 hour using a rate controlling device every week (only during Cycles 5 to 8).

  • BevacizumabDrug

    Also called Avastin

    Bevacizumab will be administered at a dose of 15 milligrams per kilogram [mg/kg] as IV infusion over 30-90 min every 3 weeks.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Carboplatin + Paclitaxel + BevacizumabExperimentalParticipants will receive 4 cycles of neoadjuvant therapy prior to IDS and 22 cycles of adjuvant therapy before entering long-term follow-up. Each cycle will be 3 weeks in length. Carboplatin and paclitaxel will be administered during Cycles 1 to 8. Bevacizumab will be administered during both the neoadjuvant and the adjuvant treatment periods in Cycles 1 to 26 (no treatment in Cycles 4 and 5).

  2. Percentage of Participants with Response According to Cancer Antigen (CA)-125 Levels

    Measured: At IDS (approximately 3 months); at Cycle 26 (approximately 22 months); and at last CA-125 assessment (up to approximately 38 months)

  3. Percentage of Participants with RECIST v1.1 Objective Response and CA-125 Response

    Measured: At Cycle 26 (approximately 22 months) and at last response assessment (up to approximately 38 months)

  4. Percentage of Participants with RECIST v1.1 Objective Response Without CA-125 Response

    Measured: At Cycle 26 (approximately 22 months) and at last response assessment (up to approximately 38 months)

  5. Percentage of Participants with CA-125 Response Without RECIST v1.1 Objective Response

    Measured: At Cycle 26 (approximately 22 months) and at last response assessment (up to approximately 38 months)

  6. Number of Participants with Disease Progression or Death From any Cause

    Measured: From Baseline to disease progression or death due to any cause (up to approximately 38 months)

  7. Progression-Free Survival (PFS) According to RECIST v1.1

    Measured: From Baseline to disease progression or death due to any cause (up to approximately 38 months)

  8. Percentage of Participants with Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and Non-SAEs

    Measured: SAEs: from randomization up to last assessment (up to approximately 38 months); non-SAEs: from Day 1 up to 28 days after last dose (up to approximately 23 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Carboplatin, Paclitaxel and Bevacizumab in people with Ovarian Cancer, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 15 sites in France.

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 6 inclusion and 15 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 13 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 15 sites in France. 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?

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?

Percentage of Participants with Complete Resection After IDS (time frame: After IDS (approximately 4 months from randomization)). 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 NCT01739218, 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 13 Aug 2019.
