Efficacy of weekly low-dose chemotherapy in elderly women with advanced ovarian cancer: is there an antiangiogenic effect?

2006

13133 Background: In elderly patients decreased functionality of multiple organ systems may affect pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of drugs. For this reason elderly cancer patients experience enhanced susceptibility to common chemotherapy-related adverse events. A way to prevent these effects could be metronomic chemotherapy, which is a variation of dose-dense therapy, with a cumulative dose significantly lower than maximum tolerated dose. Methods: 27 advanced ovarian cancer patients, median age 67 (range 60–86), received low dose weekly continuous chemotherapy until disease progression. All patients were treated with CBDCA AUC 2 mg/ml/min and Docetaxel 35 mg/sqm (adjusted according …

Minimally invasive interval debulking surgery in ovarian neoplasm (MISSION trial–NCT02324595): a feasibility study

2016

Background Laparoscopy has acquired an increasing role in the management of ovarian cancer. Laparoscopic cytoreduction could represent a new frontier for selected patients after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). Objective We sought to assess feasibility and early complication rate of minimally invasive (MI) interval debulking surgery (IDS) in stage III-IV epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients after NACT. Study Design This is a phase II multicentric study in advanced EOC cases with clinical complete response after NACT, according to Gynecologic Cancer Intergroup and Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors criteria. Institutional review board approval was obtained and all patients sign…

Carboplatin and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin for advanced ovarian cancer. Preliminary activity results of the MITO-2 phase III trial

2008

<i>Background:</i> Based on the efficacy of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) in relapsed ovarian cancer, we are conducting a phase III study comparing carboplatin plus either paclitaxel or PLD as first-line therapy in advanced ovarian cancer. Because of limited phase I and II data on PLD plus carboplatin in this setting, we conducted an interim activity analysis. <i>Patients and Methods:</i> Patients with stage 1c-IV epithelial ovarian cancer were randomized to carboplatin AUC 5 plus either paclitaxel 175 mg/m<sup>2</sup> or PLD 30 mg/m<sup>2</sup> every 3 weeks for 6 cycles. The interim activity analysis was planned according to a single…

Phase III randomised clinical trial comparing primary surgery versus neoadjuvant chemotherapy in advanced epithelial ovarian cancer with high tumour …

2016

Abstract Objective To establishing whether neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) followed by interval debulking surgery (IDS) is superior primary debulking surgery (PDS) in terms of clinical outcome as well as peri-operative morbidity in advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (AEOC) endowed with high tumour load (HTL). Material and methods This is a single-Institution, superiority, randomised phase III trial enrolling supposed AEOC women. Patients considered pre-operatively eligible were triaged to staging laparoscopy to assess the predictive index (PI) of tumour load. All AEOC women with PI ≥ 8 or ≤ 12 (considered as HTL) were included. They were randomly assigned (1:1 ratio) to undergo either PDS f…

M-TRAP: Safety and performance of metastatic tumor cell trap device in advanced ovarian cancer patients

2021

Objective. Despite radical surgery and chemotherapy, most patients with ovarian cancer die due to disease progression. M-Trap is an implantable medical device designed to capture peritoneal disseminated tumor cells with the aim to focalize the disease. This trial analyzed the safety and performance of the device. Methods. This first-in-human prospective, multi-center, non-blinded, single-arm study enrolled 23 women with high-grade serous advanced ovarian cancer. After primary or interval debulking surgery, 3 M-Trap devices were placed in the peritoneum of the abdominal cavity. 18-months post-implantation or at disease progression, devices were initially removed by laparoscopy. The primary s…
