Purpose
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells.
PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy consisting of liposomal doxorubicin, paclitaxel, and carboplatin in treating patients who have untreated ovarian, peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer.
| Condition | Intervention | Phase |
|---|---|---|
| Fallopian Tube Cancer Ovarian Cancer Primary Peritoneal Cavity Cancer | Drug: carboplatin Drug: paclitaxel Drug: pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride | Phase 1 |
| Study Type: | Interventional |
| Study Design: | Primary Purpose: Treatment |
| Official Title: | A Phase I Study of Paclitaxel, Carboplatin, and Increasing Doses of Doxil in Untreated Ovarian, Peritoneal, and Tubal Carcinoma |
| Estimated Enrollment: | 48 |
| Study Start Date: | March 1999 |
| Primary Completion Date: | January 2007 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine the maximum tolerated dose of doxorubicin HCl liposome when administered with paclitaxel and carboplatin in patients with previously untreated ovarian epithelial, peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer.
- Determine the toxicity of this treatment regimen in these patients.
- Evaluate measurable disease in patients treated with this regimen.
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study of doxorubicin HCl liposome (LipoDox).
Patients receive LipoDox IV on day 1, carboplatin IV over 3 hours on days 1 and 22, and paclitaxel IV over 1 hour on days 1, 8, 15, 22, 29, and 36. Treatment repeats every 42 days for 4 courses in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression.
Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of LipoDox until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 2 of 3 or 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity. An additional cohort of 12 patients receives LipoDox at the MTD with carboplatin and paclitaxel as above.
Patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years, every 6 months for 3 years, and then annually thereafter.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 48 patients will be accrued for this study within 2 years.
