Oxaliplatin in Treating Patients With Persistent or Recurrent Endometrial Cancer

June 20, 2013 updated by: Gynecologic Oncology Group

Phase II Evaluation of Oxaliplatin in the Treatment of Recurrent or Persistent Endometrial Carcinoma

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as oxaliplatin, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of oxaliplatin in treating patients who have persistent or recurrent endometrial cancer.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the antitumor activity of oxaliplatin in terms of response rate in patients with persistent or recurrent endometrial carcinoma that is refractory to curative or established therapy.
  • Determine the nature and degree of toxicity of this treatment regimen in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive oxaliplatin IV over 2 hours on day 1. Treatment repeats every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months for 3 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 19-51 patients will be accrued for this study.
