Trial Information

A Phase 2 Study of AZD2171 in Recurrent or Persistent Ovarian, Peritoneal, or Fallopian Tube Cancer


OBJECTIVES:

Primary

- Determine the objective response rate (complete response, partial response, and stable
disease for ≥ 16 weeks) in patients with persistent, recurrent, or refractory advanced
ovarian epithelial, primary peritoneal cavity, or fallopian tube cancer treated with
AZD2171.

Secondary

- Determine the time to disease progression, median survival time, and duration of
overall CA-125 antigen response in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is an open-label, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to
reaction to prior platinum-based regimen (sensitive vs insensitive).

Patients receive oral AZD2171 once daily for 4 weeks. Courses repeat every 4 weeks for up to
8 months in the absence of disease progression or toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed periodically.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 64 patients will be accrued for this study.

Inclusion Criteria


DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:

- Histologically or cytologically confirmed ovarian epithelial, fallopian tube, or
primary peritoneal cavity cancer

- Persistent, recurrent, or refractory to initial therapy

- Advanced disease

- Measurable or evaluable disease, as defined by 1 of the following:

- At least 1 lesion measured in at least 1 dimension as ≥ 20 mm with conventional
techniques or as ≥ 10 mm with spiral CT scan

- Evidence of progression based on an elevated CA-125 (defined as a value of ≥ 2
times upper limit of normal [ULN] documented on two separate determinations made
> 2 weeks apart) if the physical exam is normal and CT scan has a disease volume
< 1 cm in maximum diameter

- No borderline tumors or tumors of low malignant potential

- Patients must have received platinum-based chemotherapy prior to study entry

- No more than 1 prior chemotherapy regimen (i.e., initial first-line chemotherapy
only)

- No known brain metastases
