Cisplatin and Flavopiridol in Treating Patients With Advanced Ovarian Epithelial Cancer or Primary Peritoneal Cancer

May 6, 2014 updated by: National Cancer Institute (NCI)

Phase II Trial of Flavopiridol and Cisplatin in Advanced Epithelial Ovarian and Primary Peritoneal Carcinomas

This phase II trial is studying how well giving cisplatin together with flavopiridol works in treating patients with advanced ovarian epithelial cancer or primary peritoneal cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin and flavopiridol, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

I. Determine the response rate, time to progression, and survival in patients with advanced ovarian epithelial or primary peritoneal cancer treated with cisplatin and flavopiridol.

II. Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are accrued to two separate groups (Group 2 closed to accrual as of 3/10/06) .

GROUP 1: Patients receive cisplatin IV over 30 minutes and flavopiridol IV over 24 hours on day 1. Courses repeat every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

GROUP 2 (Closed to accrual as of 3/10/06): Patients receive cisplatin IV over 30 minutes and flavopiridol IV over 24 hours on day 1. Courses repeat every 3 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Patients are followed every 3 months for up to 3 years.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Proportion of Confirmed Tumor Responses Defined to be Either a Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR)
Time Frame: 24 weeks

A Complete Response (CR) is defined as the disappearance of all target lesions and normalization of tumor biomarkers.

A Partial Response (PR) is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of the LD of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum LD.

A confirmed tumor response is defined to be either a CR or PR noted as the objective status on 2 consecutive evaluations at least 4-6 weeks apart.

24 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overall Survival
Time Frame: Time from registration to date of last follow-up or death due to any cause, assessed up to 3 years
Will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier.
Time from registration to date of last follow-up or death due to any cause, assessed up to 3 years
Time to Progression
Time Frame: Time from registration to the date of progression or last follow-up, assessed up to 3 years
Time to progression will be estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier. Progression is defined as having at least a 20% increase in the sum of longest diameter (LD) of target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum LD recorded since the treatment started or the appearance of one or more new lesions.
Time from registration to the date of progression or last follow-up, assessed up to 3 years
