- Registration Number
- NCT00170625
- Brief Summary
Compatibility of the topotecan therapy in combination with carboplatin.
- Detailed Description
The aim of the study was to confirm the tolerability of 3-day topotecan therapy in combination with carboplatin in accordance with published data and to investigate the tolerability of continued therapy until disease progression or up to a maximum of 12 months.

Group Intervention Description Relapse 6-12 months Hycamtin dose level 0: Topotecan 1mg/m2/d on day 1-3, q 21d (+ Carboplatin AUC 5 on day 3 after Topotecan application) If dose limiting toxicity (DLT) is present then Topotecan dose will be reduced to dose level -1 (dose level -1: Topotecan 0.75 mg/m2/d on day 1-3, q 21d (+ Carboplatin AUC 5 on day 3 after Topotecan application)) A DLT is present if a patient has a postponement due to hematologic toxicity of more than 7 days within the first four courses at dose level 0. Relapse >12 months Hycamtin dose level 0: Topotecan 1mg/m2/d on day 1-3, q 21d (+ Carboplatin AUC 5 on day 3 after Topotecan application) If dose limiting toxicity (DLT) is present then Topotecan dose will be reduced to dose level -1 (dose level -1: Topotecan 0.75 mg/m2/d on day 1-3, q 21d (+ Carboplatin AUC 5 on day 3 after Topotecan application)) A DLT is present if a patient has a postponement due to hematologic toxicity of more than 7 days within the first four courses at dose level 0.
