Multicenter, Randomized, Phase II Comparative Study to Compare Efficacy & Safety of Taxotere®/Carboplatin Combination Therapy vs Sequential Therapy w/ Taxotere® Then Carboplatin as Second-line Treatment of Patients w/ Relapsed, Platinum-sensitive Ovarian Cancer
Primary Objective
The primary objective of the study is to compare the progression-free survival of two
treatment regimens:
Taxotere® 30 mg/m2 IV on Days 1 and 8, combined with carboplatin AUC 6 IV on Day 1, repeated
every 21 days for 6 cycles or until disease progression. (A patient who has completed 6
cycles of treatment and who has achieved a partial response or stable disease may either
continue or stop treatment at the investigator's discretion.)
Versus
Taxotere® 30 mg/m2 IV on Days 1 and 8, repeated every 21 days up to 6 cycles or until
disease progression. Followed by carboplatin (AUC 6) IV every 21 days if the patient does
not achieve a complete response or has disease progression on Taxotere®. A patient who has
achieved a complete response on Taxotere® will be followed until the subsequent recurrence
at which time she will then receive single-agent carboplatin. Carboplatin treatment will be
discontinued if the patient has completed 6 cycles of treatment and has achieved a complete
response or has disease progression. (A patient who has completed 6 cycles of carboplatin
treatment and who has achieved a partial response or stable disease may either continue or
stop treatment at the investigator's discretion.)
Secondary Objectives
The secondary objectives of the study are to compare the objective response rates (defined
as a complete response plus partial response), duration of tumor response, median survival,
QOL and safety in patients treated with the two regimens described above.

Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment
Progression-free Survival (PFS)
Progression in measurable disease is defined as any of the following: At least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter target lesions; appearance of one or more new lesions; Death due to disease without prior objective documentation of progression; deterioration in health status attributable to the disease requiring a change in therapy without objective documentation of progression Progression in non-measurable disease according to CA125 levels is defined as any of the following: CA125 that begins in normal range increases to twice the upper limit of normal; CA125 level that begins elevated increases 25% over two previous samples, a 50% increase over three previous samples, or a persistent elevation over 100 U/ml for more than 2 months without a 50% decrease.
Every 6 months, to 18 months
