Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?

This phase III trial studies olaparib or cediranib maleate and olaparib to see how well they work compared with standard platinum-based chemotherapy in treating patients with platinum-sensitive ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that has come back. Olaparib and cediranib maleate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Cediranib maleate may stop the growth of ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer by blocking the growth of new blood vessels necessary for tumor growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin, paclitaxel, gemcitabine hydrochloride, and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether olaparib or cediranib maleate and olaparib is more effective than standard platinum-based chemotherapy in treating patients with platinum-sensitive ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.

Treatment Details

Interventions

  • Cediranib Maleate (Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor)
  • Olaparib (PARP Inhibitor)
Trial OverviewThe trial compares the effectiveness of Olaparib alone or combined with Cediranib against standard platinum-based chemotherapy in treating recurrent cancers. It examines if these drugs can better inhibit tumor growth by blocking enzymes and blood vessel formation necessary for tumors.
Participant Groups
3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Arm III (olaparib, cediranib maleate)Experimental Treatment10 Interventions
Patients receive olaparib PO BID and cediranib maleate PO QD. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo ECHO or MUGA during screening and as clinically indicated on study. Patients also undergo CT or MRI as well as blood sample collection throughout the trial.
Group II: Arm II (olaparib)Experimental Treatment9 Interventions
Patients receive olaparib PO BID. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients undergo ECHO or MUGA during screening. Patients also undergo CT or MRI as well as blood sample collection throughout the trial.
Group III: Arm I (platinum-based chemotherapy)Active Control11 Interventions
