Topotecan in Treating Women With Persistent or Recurrent Cervical Cancer

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Cervical Cancer
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT00087126
Lead Sponsor
Gynecologic Oncology Group
Brief Summary

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

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well topotecan works in treating women with persistent or recurrent cervical cancer.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

* Determine the antitumor activity of topotecan in patients with persistent or recurrent carcinoma of the cervix that failed higher priority treatment protocols.

* Determine the nature and degree of toxicity of this drug in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive topotecan IV over 30 minutes on days 1, 8, and 15. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

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

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 22-60 patients will be accrued for this study within 1-2 years.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Proportion of Patients With Objective Tumor Response Rate (Complete Response [CR] or Partial Response [PR]) Using RECIST Version 1.0CT scan or MRI if used to follow lesion for measurable disease every other cycle for the first 6 months; every 6 months thereafter until disease progression for up to 5 years.

RECIST 1.0 defines complete response as the disappearance of all target lesions and non-target lesions and no evidence of new lesions documented by two disease assessments at least 4 weeks apart. Partial response is defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of longest dimensions (LD) of all target measurable lesions taking as reference the baseline sum of LD. There can be no unequivocal progression of non-target lesions and no new lesions. Documentation by two disease assessments at least 4 weeks apart is required. In the case where the ONLY target lesion is a solitary pelvic mass measured by physical exam, which is not radiographically measurable, a 50% decrease in the LD is required. These patients will have their response classified according to the definitions stated above. Complete and partial responses are included in the objective tumor response rate.

Number of Participants With Adverse Effects as Assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events Version 3.0Assessed every cycle while on treatment, 30 days after the last cycle of treatment, and up to 5 years in follow-up

All participants assessed by CTCAE v3 (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 3.0) including grade 0 (the number of participants not affected by the Adverse Event).
