简要总结
This randomized phase III trial studies paclitaxel to see how well it works compared to polyglutamate paclitaxel or observation only in treating patients with stage III or stage IV ovarian epithelial, peritoneal cancer, or fallopian tube cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and polyglutamate paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Paclitaxel and polyglutamate paclitaxel may also stop the growth of ovarian epithelial or peritoneal cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Sometimes, after treatment, the tumor may not need additional treatment until it progresses. In this case, observation may be sufficient. It is not yet known whether paclitaxel is more effective than polyglutamate paclitaxel or observation only in treating ovarian epithelial, peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer.
详细描述
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine whether CT-2103 (polyglutamate paclitaxel) or paclitaxel, administered to women with advanced ovarian, primary peritoneal or fallopian tube cancer who have attained a clinically-defined complete response to primary platinum/taxane-based chemotherapy ("consolidation/maintenance therapy") will reduce the death rate, compared to re-treatment at the time of documented disease progression.
II. To determine if, in this clinical setting, CT-2103 produces a more favorable toxicity profile (with a particular focus on peripheral neuropathy as measured by the Gynecologic Oncology Group [GOG] NTX4) and superior quality-of-life (as measured by the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Ovarian [FACT-O]), compared to paclitaxel.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To explore the relationship between expression of several of the angiogenic markers and overall survival or progression-free survival in patients randomized to CT-2103, paclitaxel, or no treatment.

排除标准

- •Patients who have received prior radiotherapy to any portion of the abdominal cavity or pelvis are excluded; prior radiation for localized cancer of the breast, head and neck, or skin is permitted, provided that it was completed more than 3 years prior to registration, and the patient remains free of recurrent or metastatic disease
- •Patients who have received investigational therapies, and/or biological therapies (i.e. Bevacizumab or Erlotinib) for their epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal or fallopian tube cancers or for any other abdominal or pelvic tumor, are not excluded; however, biologics cannot be continued concurrent with the GOG-012 maintenance treatment (or observation); patients who have received prior chemotherapy for any other abdominal or pelvic tumor (except as noted above) are excluded; patients may have received prior adjuvant chemotherapy for localized breast cancer, provided that it was completed more than 3 years prior to registration, and that the patient remains free of recurrent or metastatic disease
- •Patients with synchronous primary endometrial cancer, or a past history of primary endometrial cancer, are excluded, unless all of the following conditions are met:
- •Stage not greater than I-B
- •Less than 3 mm invasion without vascular or lymphatic invasion
- •No poorly differentiated subtypes, including papillary serous, clear cell, or other Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) Grade 3 lesions

- •Patients with acute hepatitis, or known chronic hepatitis
- •Patients with an active infection that requires antibiotics
- •Patients with ongoing gastrointestinal bleeding requiring blood product support
- •Patients whose circumstances at the time of entry onto the protocol would not permit completion of study or required follow up
- •Patients with unstable angina or those who have had a myocardial infarction within the past six months; patients with evidence of abnormal cardiac conduction (e.g. bundle branch block, heart block) are eligible if their disease has been stable for the past six months
