Progression free survival [ Time Frame: baseline to progressive disease evaluated at 18 months ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
To measure and to compare, in how many patients in the two treatment groups the tumor grows again at 18 months, after the patients have been assigned to one of the two treatment groups.

  • Progression Free Survival [ Time Frame: baseline to measured progressive disease evaluated at 2 and 3 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To compare the safety of the two treatments [ Time Frame: every cycle ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • To assess if biological markers in the tumors can be identified, which could enable to predict, who could profit from treatment with enzastaurin [ Time Frame: baseline, cycle 2, end of study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Pharmacokinetics [ Time Frame: cycle 1, cycle 2 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Compare other efficacy measures between the 2 treatments, like tumor shrinkage in patients, or average time till the tumor grows again, during and after the treatment period
  • To compare the safety of the two treatments during the treatment phase
  • To assess, after the treatment period, if biological markers in the tumors can be identified, which could enable to predict, who could profit from treatment with enzastaurin
  • To measure potential interactions between the chemotherapeutic drugs and enzastaurin
  • Measure enzastaurin concentration in the blood, while taking the drug
 
Comparing Two Treatments for Ovarian Cancer: Standard Chemotherapy Plus Enzastaurin, or Placebo ("Sugar Pill")
A Randomized, Phase 2, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blinded Study With and Without Enzastaurin in Combination With Paclitaxel and Carboplatin as First-Line Treatment, Followed by Maintenance Treatment in Advanced Ovarian Cancer

Patients with ovarian cancer usually get the drugs carboplatin and paclitaxel as initial treatment. In many patients the tumor will shrink, or even disappear, after treatment with these drugs. But, unfortunately, the tumor will grow again in many patients. This trial will try to address the question: Can we delay the time, till the tumor grows again, by adding a 3rd drug to the standard therapy? To answer this question, patients will, by chance, either get the experimental drug enzastaurin or a "dummy pill" (placebo) during the chemotherapy and for up to 3 years after chemotherapy. Patients and physicians will not know, if a patient gets enzastaurin or placebo (double-blinded trial). After a predefined time, the treatment will be uncovered, and the number of patients with tumor growth at a specific time point will be compared between the two treatments.
