Brief Summary:
To determine whether the combination of MM-121 plus paclitaxel is more effective than paclitaxel alone

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Epithelial Ovarian Cancer Fallopian Tube Cancer Peritoneal Cancer Drug: MM-121 Drug: Paclitaxel Phase 2

Detailed Description:
This is a multicenter, open-label, randomized, Phase II study of MM-121 in patients with platinum resistant or refractory recurrent/advanced ovarian cancers. Up to 210 patients will be randomized (2:1) to receive MM-121 plus paclitaxel or paclitaxel alone.

Official Title: A Phase II Randomized Open Label Study of MM-121 in Combination With Paclitaxel Versus Paclitaxel Alone in Patients With Platinum Resistant/ Refractory Advanced Ovarian Cancers
Study Start Date : October 2011
Actual Primary Completion Date : September 2013
Actual Study Completion Date : June 2015


Arm Intervention/treatment
Active Comparator: Paclitaxel
Standard dosing paclitaxel: 80 mg/m2 QW intravenously)
Drug: Paclitaxel
Standard dosing Paclitaxel (IV)

Experimental: MM-121 (SAR256212) + Paclitaxel
administered intravenously at 40 mg/kg loading dose on Cycle 1, Week 1 followed by 20 mg/kg QW for all subsequent doses
Drug: MM-121
MM-121 (SAR256212) (IV)
Other Name: SAR256212

Drug: Paclitaxel
Standard dosing Paclitaxel (IV)




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Progression Free Survival [ Time Frame: Time from first dose to date of progression, the longest time frame of 3.9 years ]
    To determine whether MM-121 + paclitaxel was more effective than paclitaxel alone in prolonging progression-free survival in advanced ovarian cancers resistant or refractory to platinum agents. PFS was a time to event measure, and progression of disease is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1), "as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions". Progression free survival was defined as the number of months from the date of randomization to the date of death or progression. If neither death nor progression was observed during the study, PFS data was censored at the last non-progressive disease valid tumor assessment unless the patient was discontinued due to symptomatic deterioration. If this occurred, the patient was counted as having progressive disease (PD).


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Overall Survival [ Time Frame: Time from first dose to date of death, with a median of approximately 13 months ]
    To determine whether MM-121 + paclitaxel is more effective than paclitaxel alone in prolonging overall survival. This was a time-to-event analysis of time from first dose to date of death.
