About this study

The study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of apatinib in patients with advanced ovarian cancer,who has received second-line chemotherapy and failed.

Read the detailed description

Ovarian cancer is the third most common gynecological malignancy,just less than endometrial cancer and cervical cancer. Because most patients with advanced ovarian cancer can not get the ideal tumor cell reduction surgery, and multi-drug resistance often emerges after repeated chemotherapy,recurrent and metastatic ovarian cancer has become one of the major diseases that threaten women's health. There is strongly necessary to explore effective therapeutic drugs and means to improve prognosis of these patients and improve the quality of life. The study,as a double blind clinical trial ,is to investigate the efficacy and safety of apatinib in patients with advanced ovarian cancer,who has received second-line chemotherapy regimens and failed. A total of 60 patients with performance status 0-2 were enrolled in this study, and were randomly divided into two groups--one group of 40 patients receiving apatinib,and another of 20 patients receiving placebo.

apatinib, Placebos

What participants receive

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

  • apatinibDrug

    Patients in experimental group will take 500mg apatinib daily orally,and patients in control group will take placebo

  • PlacebosDrug

    Physical properties of placebos are consistent with apatinib

What is being measured

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

  1. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    Time from randomization until disease progression or death

    Measured: approximately 2 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Overall survival (OS)

    Time from randomization until death from any cause of death

    Measured: approximately 2 years

  2. Objective response rate (ORR)

    Proportion of patients with reduction in tumor burden of a predefined amount

    Measured: approximately 2 years

  3. disease control rate (DCR)

    the total proportion of patients who demonstrate a response to treatment

    Measured: approximately 2 years

  4. Quality of life (QoL)

    As measured by the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer questionnaire (EORTC QLQ C30)

    Measured: approximately 2 years

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.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Aug 2017. 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 China. 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Mei Kai, Ph.D (18111277629, 250450418@qq.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Progression-free survival (PFS) (time frame: approximately 2 years). 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 NCT03262545, 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?
