Phase II Trial in Platinum-Refractory Ovarian Cancer: A Randomized Multicenter Trial With SU11248 to Evaluate Dosage, Tolerability, Toxicity and Effectiveness of a Multitargeted Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor Monotherapy


This study in patients with ovarian cancer refractory to platinum based chemotherapy is
designed as a randomized, 2-schedule and dose-level, open-label, multicenter phase II study
to select the better dose and schedule arm for further investigation.

72 patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive oral SU11248 therapy either 37.5
mg/day continuously or 50mg/day for 4 weeks followed by 14 days off.

Patients will get outpatients treatment. At screening the patients' eligibility will be
assessed, their baseline and demographic characteristics obtained, and the baseline values
for the effect variables collected. Patients with measurable lesions as well as
non-measurable disease will be included into this trial. Measurable lesion will be
documented by CT or MRI scan and CA-125 values, non-measurable lesions will be monitored by
analysis of CA°125 levels.

The patients' safety will be monitored during and up to 30 days after termination of SU11248
therapy.

In patients with measurable lesions at baseline, the (post)-treatment values for effect
according to the RECIST criteria will be collected as shown in table 6. In case of CR or PR,
a confirmatory CT or MRI scan is required after an interval of at least four weeks.
Antitumor effects according to CA°125 levels will be determined in the same time intervals
and, in addition, 28 days after last SU11248 application in patients with CA°125 response
according to GCIG guidelines during therapy.

For post study follow-up, patients and/or their physicians will be contacted via phone for
overall survival and TTP (including the method of diagnosis and additional treatment) every
2 months for their life time.


Inclusion Criteria:



- Women, 18 years and older, written (signed and dated) informed consent

- Histological confirmed epithelial ovarian cancer, primary cancer of the peritoneum or
fallopian tube

- Up to three prior chemotherapies, at least one platinum based chemotherapy

- Platinum refractory or resistant ovarian cancer (defined as stable (SD) or
progressive disease (PD) during platinum containing chemotherapy, or treatment free
interval < 6 months after stop of platinum based chemotherapy)

- Measurable or non-measurable disease

- Elevated CA°125 level (> 2 x ULN in case of normal CA°125 after prior chemotherapy;
or ≥ 2 x nadir CA°125 value after prior chemotherapy, when CA° 125 levels remained
elevated above normal) in case of non-measurable disease

- ECOG performance status 0-2

- Negative pregnancy test within 5 days before randomization and adequate contraception
in women with childbearing potential

Adequate organ function as defined by the following criteria:

- Serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST; serum glutamate-oxalate transferase [SGOT])
and serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT; serum glutamate-pyruvate transferase [SGPT])
<=2.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN). If liver function abnormalities are due to
underlying malignancy, then AST and ALT may be <=5x ULN

- Total serum bilirubin <=1.5 x ULN

- Prothrombin time (PT) and partial thromboplastin time (PTT) <=1.5 x ULN

- Serum albumin >= 3.0 g/dL

- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >=1500/µl

- Platelets >=100,000/µl

- Hemoglobin >=9.0 g/dL

- Serum creatinine <=1.5 x ULN

- TSH within normal range Willingness and ability to comply with scheduled visits,
treatment plans, laboratory tests, and other study procedures Resolution of all toxic
effects of any prior chemotherapy, surgical procedures, radiotherapy, or other cancer
related therapies to NCI CTCAE (Version 3.0) grade >=1 and to the baseline laboratory
values as defined in inclusion criterion (see before)

Exclusion Criteria:

- Borderline tumor of the ovaries

- Acute or chronic infection

- Any required concurrent cancer chemotherapy or antineoplastic endocrine therapy or
radiotherapy

- Exposure to investigational trial medication, cancer chemo- or radiotherapy within
the last 28 days prior to start of study treatment

- Known or suspected hypersensitivity to investigational compound

- Second malignancy interfering with prognosis of the patient

- Cachectic patients with a body weight <45 kg

- Patients requiring parenteral nutrition

- Patients with ileus within the last 28 days

- Any of the following within the 12 months prior to study drug administration:
myocardial infarction, severe/unstable angina, coronary/peripheral artery bypass
graft, symptomatic congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular accident or transient
ischemic attack, pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, or other thromboembolic
event

- Current treatment with therapeutic doses of anticoagulant

- Current treatment with CYP3A4 inhibitors or -inducers

- Hypertension that cannot be controlled by medications (>150/100 mmHg despite optimal
medical therapy)

- Ongoing cardiac dysrhythmias of NCI CTCAE grade >=2, atrial fibrillation of any
grade, or prolongation of the QTc interval to >470 msec for females

- Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) <=50% as measured by echocardiogram

- NCI CTCAE Grade 3 hemorrhage within 4 weeks of starting study treatment

- Evidence of neurological signs/symptoms suggestive of brain metastases, spinal cord
compression, or new evidence of brain or leptomeningeal disease

- Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positivity or acquired immunodeficiency
syndrome (AIDS)-related illness

- Patients with any other severe concurrent disease, which is an undue risk for the
patient by participating in the present study

- Any further condition which according to the investigator results in an undue risk of
the patient by participating in the present study

- Major surgery, radiation therapy, or systemic therapy within 3 weeks of first study
treatment. At least 7 days should elapse from the time of minor surgical procedure
including placement of an access device or fine needle aspiration before
randomization into this study can occur.

- Wounds that have not completely healed, active ulcer(s), or bone fracture(s).

- Prior high-dose chemotherapy requiring hematopoietic stem cell rescue.

- Prior radiation therapy to >25% of the bone marrow.
