NCT00727961

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate efficacy and tolerability, and number of positive response to treatment with CAELYX (50 mg/m\^2), administered as monotherapy once per 4 weeks to patients with metastatic epithelial ovarian cancer, resistant to previous platinum therapy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

  • Number of Participants With Complete Response

    Complete response was defined as complete disappearance of all measurable and assessable disease with no new disease or disease-related symptoms as measured by chest x-ray, computed tomography scan, and magnetic resonance imaging.

    4 weeks after chemotherapy completed

  • Number of Participants With Partial Response

    Required 50 percent or greater decrease in sum of products of all bidimensionally measurable lesions without progression of assessable disease and no new lesions as measured by chest x-ray, computed tomography scan, and magnetic resonance imaging.

    4 weeks after chemotherapy completed

  • Number of Participants With Stabilization

    All other subjects (except complete or partial responders and those with progression \[see prior definitions\]) were classified as stable disease as measured by chest x-ray, computed tomography scan, and magnetic resonance imaging.

    4 weeks after chemotherapy completed

  • Number of Participants With Progression

    Progressive disease was defined as 25% or greater increase in the size of measurable lesion. The reappearance of any lesion or clear worsening of assessable disease or the appearance of any new lesion was also considered as progressive disease as measured by chest x-ray, computed tomography scan, and magnetic resonance imaging.

    4 weeks after chemotherapy completed

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Mean Time to Positive (Partial) Treatment Response Achievement

    from the beginning of study drug administration up to 4 weeks after chemotherapy completed

  • Median Time to Progression

    from the beginning of study drug administration up to 4 weeks after chemotherapy completed

  • Mean Survival Time During the Study

    from the beginning of study drug administration up to 18 months
