Apatinib Combined With PLD vs PLD for Platinum-resistant Recurrent Ovarian Cancer(APPROVE): a Randomized, Controlled, Open-label, Phase 2 Trial

This study is a randomized, parallel-controlled, multicenter clinical study. We recruit patients over the age of 18 years with platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer. patients who meet the criteria for enrollment are randomly divided into two groups, including experiment group and control group. This study will be divided into three stages: 1. Baseline period (within 21 days before the start of treatment): Patients will complete screening tests during the baseline period to assess whether they meet the selection criteria. 2. Treatment period (from the first administration to the completion of the last treatment cycle). The tumor will be evaluated every 8 weeks during this period. If the treatment is effective, the chemotherapy does not exceed 6 cycles，then experiment group receives oral apatinib maintenance therapy until the disease progresses or toxicity could not be tolerated. Control group is followed up. 3. Follow-up period. After the end of chemotherapy, the survival status and follow-up anti-tumor therapy are collected by telephone or research centers visit every 3 months until death or loss of follow-up.The primary endpoint is the progression-free survival time(PFS) of patients and is judged according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, version 1.1. Adverse events are classified and recorded according to the National Cancer Institute's Standard of Common terms for adverse reactions (NCI-CTCAE) version 4.0.
