DCVAC/OvCa After Standard-of-care Chemotherapy in Women With Relapse of Platinum-sensitive Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

April 20, 2021 updated by: SOTIO a.s.

An Open-label, Single-group, Multi-center, Phase II Clinical Trial Evaluating the Effect of Maintenance DCVAC/OvCa After Standard-of-care Therapy in Women With First Relapse of Platinum-sensitive Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

The purpose of this trial is to investigate if maintenance DCVAC/OvCa after second-line chemotherapy of carboplatin/gemcitabine or carboplatin/paclitaxel improves efficacy outcomes in women with FIGO stage III and IV epithelial ovarian carcinoma who experienced relapse more than 6 months after complete remission of first line platinum-based chemotherapy (platinum sensitive ovarian cancer)

Study Overview

Detailed Description

All patients who fulfill all eligibility criteria will undergo a leukapheresis procedure. All eligible/enrolled patients will receive standard-of-care therapy with carboplatin/gemcitabine or carboplatin/paclitaxel starting 2 to 7 days after leukapheresis.

After 6 cycles of chemotherapy, patients will start maintenance treatment with DCVAC/OvCa.

Treatment will continue irrespective of tumor progression until completion, refusal, intolerance of treatment or death.
