Topotecan Plus Carboplatin im Vergleich Zur Standardtherapie (Paclitaxel Plus Carboplatin Oder Gemcitabin Plus Carboplatin) in Der Therapie Von Patientinnen Mit Platin-sensitivem Rezidivierten Epithelialen Ovarialkarzinom, Peritonealkarzinom Oder Tubenkarzinom


In Germany there are two established therapy regimes for platin sensitive ovarian cancer:
the combination of carboplatin and paclitaxel as well as the combination of carboplatin with
gemcitabine. Choice of therapy is individual due to missing randomized comparisons between
the regimes. Topotecan has shown good efficacy in second-line therapy of ovarian cancer as
well as a good, especially, non-hematoxic toxicity profile. Several phase II-studies have
demonstrated a synergistic effect of topotecan in combination with carboplatin exhibiting
good efficacy and tolerability.

It shall be tested in this randomized phase III-study if the combination of topotecan and
carboplatin shows improvement of progression-free survival in comparison to the standard
regimes.
