The Efficacy and Safety of Tivozanib in Recurrent, Platinum-Resistant Ovarian, Fallopian Tube or Primary Peritoneal Cancer


PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the clinical activity of tivozanib in patients with platinum-resistant,
recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Determining the potential survival advantage and characterizing the safety of single
agent tivozanib in patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive tivozanib hydrochloride orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-21. Courses
repeat every 4 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for 2 years and
then every 6 months for 3 years.


Inclusion Criteria:



- • Patients must have recurrent or persistent, platinum resistant epithelial ovarian,
fallopian tube or primary peritoneal carcinoma; platinum-resistant disease is defined
as a recurrence within 6 months of completing adjuvant, platinum-based chemotherapy

- Patients must have measurable disease or non-measurable (detectable) disease:

- Measurable disease is defined as at least one lesion that can be accurately
measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded); each
lesion must be greater than or equal to 10 mm when measured by computed
tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or by clinical exam; or
greater than or equal to 20 mm when measured by chest x-ray; lymph nodes
must be greater than or equal to 15 mm in short axis when measured by CT or
MRI

- Non-measurable (detectable) disease in a patient is defined in this
protocol as one who does not have measurable disease based on Response
Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria but does have a
cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) greater than or equal to two times the upper
normal limit within the last 60 days (confirmatory at baseline) and at
least one of the following conditions:

- Ascites and/or pleural effusion attributed to tumor

- Hypermetabolic lesions on positron emission tomography (PET) scan

- Patients with measurable disease must have at least one "target lesion" to be
used to assess response on this protocol as defined by RECIST

- Patients must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance
status of 0, 1, or 2

- Recovery from effects of recent surgery, radiotherapy, or chemotherapy:

- Patients should be free of active infection requiring antibiotics (with the
exception of uncomplicated urinary tract infection [UTI])

- Any other prior therapy directed at the malignant tumor, including
chemotherapy, biological/targeted (non-cytotoxic) agents and immunologic
agents, must be discontinued at least three weeks prior to registration

- At least 4 weeks must have elapsed since the patient underwent any major
surgery (e.g., major: laparotomy, laparoscopy, thoracotomy, video assisted
thorascopic surgery (VATS); there is no restriction on minor procedures
(e.g., minor: central venous access catheter placement, ureteral stent
placement or exchange, paracentesis, thoracentesis)

- Patients must have had one prior taxane and platinum-based chemotherapeutic
regimen for management of primary disease containing carboplatin, cisplatin, or
another organo platinum compound; this initial treatment may have included
intraperitoneal therapy, consolidation, non-cytotoxic (biologic/targeted agents,
such as bevacizumab) or extended therapy administered after surgical or
non-surgical assessment; there is no maximum number of prior regimens;

- patients may not have had any prior systemic therapy (including interleukin-2,
interferon-alpha, chemotherapy, bevacizumab, investigational or licensed drug
that targets vascular endothelial growth factor [VEGF] or VEGF receptors/pathway
or are mammalian target of rapamycin [mTOR] inhibitors) for treatment of
recurrent ovarian cancer

- Patients must have signed an approved informed consent and authorization
permitting the release of personal health information

- Patients must meet pre-entry requirements

- A female is eligible to participate if she is of non-childbearing potential or
as documentation of a negative pregnancy test prior to the start of the study
treatment; sexually active pre-menopausal female subjects must agree to use
adequate, highly effective contraceptive measures, while on study and for 45
days after the last dose of last study drug; effective birth control includes
(a) intrauterine device (IUD) plus one barrier method; (b) oral, implantable or
injectable contraceptives plus one barrier method; or (c) 2 barrier methods;
effective barrier methods are male or female condoms, diaphragms, and
spermicides (creams or gels that contain a chemical to kill sperm)

Study Design:

Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment

Outcome Measure:

Overall response rate to treatment with single agent tivozanib as measured by physical exam findings, serum CA-125 levels and/or measurement of index lesions via appropriate imaging studies using RECIST criteria

Outcome Description:

Response frequencies and percentages will be tabulated for all four groups and then an overall frequency of response (complete response [CR] or partial response [PR]) v. non-response (stable disease [SD] or progressive disease [PD]) will be calculated along with a one-sided lower limit 95% confidence interval, consistent with the approach used to specify staging of accrual.
