NCT03693248

Brief Summary

Te hypothesized that two cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking surgery would improve survival in advanced epithelial ovarian, fallopian, and primary peritoneal cancer because reduction of one cycle of chemotherapy can lead to the removal of more tumor burden, compared with three cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy. So the investigators aim to compare survival, rate of successful optimal cytoreductive surgery, post-operative complications, and quality of life between two and three cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking surgery for advanced epithelial ovarian, fallopian, and primary peritoneal cancer.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Progression free survival

    the time interval from randomization date to disease recurrence or progression date

    From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death (by any cause, in the absence of disease progression) whichever came first, assessed up to 60 months

Secondary Outcomes (21)

  • Overall survival

    From the date of randomization until death due to any cause, assessed up to 60 months

  • Time to progression

    From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression in the absence of death by any cause, assessed up to 60 months

  • Tumor response 1

    3 weeks after completion of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, up to 6 weeks

  • Tumor response 2

    3 weeks after completion of interval debulking surgery, up to 6 weeks

  • Tumor response 3

    3 weeks after completion of adjuvant chemotherapy, up to 6 weeks

  • +16 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Two cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy

EXPERIMENTAL

* Paclitaxel (175mg/m2) and carboplatin (AUC 5.0 or 6.0) IV, D1, every three weeks. * Two cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and four cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy.

Drug: Two cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy

Three cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy

NO INTERVENTION
