Pazopanib (GW786034) and cyclophosphamide in patients with platinum-resistant, recurrent, pre-treated ovarian cancer - Results of the PACOVAR-trial.
2017
Abstract Purpose The prognosis is poor for patients with recurrent, platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Evidence suggests that antiangiogenic treatment modalities could play a major role in EOC. A combined therapy consisting of the investigational oral antiangiogenic agent pazopanib and metronomic oral cyclophosphamide may offer a well-tolerable treatment option to patients with recurrent, previously treated EOC. Patients and methods This study was designed as a multicenter phase I trial evaluating the optimal dose as well as activity and tolerability of pazopanib with metronomic cyclophosphamide in the treatment of patients with recurrent, platinum-resistant, previously tre…

e15575 Background: Angiogenesis is essential to tumor growth, invasion, and metastasis in EOC. The aim of this study was to identify angiogenic biomarkers to predict response to P, a potent and selective multi-targeted receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor of VEGFR-1, VEGFR-2, VEGFR-3, PDGFR-a/β, and c-kit, in a clinical phase II trial. Methods: We analyzed a series of 20 out of 25 women enrolled in a GEICO Phase II trial that studied the Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) of P in platinum-resistant EOC, PPC and FTC (results will be presented in an additional abstract). Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tumors at diagnosis were evaluated for the microvessel density (MVD) by using CD31 immunostaining…
