A Phase I Trial of Dose Dense (Biweekly) Carboplatin Combined With Paclitaxel and Pegfilgrastim (Neulasta): A Feasibility Study in Patients With Untreated Stage III and IV Ovarian, Tubal or Primary Peritoneal Cancer
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
- Establish the feasibility of adjuvant dose-dense carboplatin and paclitaxel followed by
pegfilgrastim, in terms of absence of grade 3 or 4 nonhematologic toxicities without
major dose delays or additional hematological support (e.g., red blood cell or platelet
transfusions or admission for febrile neutropenia), in patients with stage III-IV
ovarian epithelial, fallopian tube, primary peritoneal cancer, or carcinosarcoma
cancer.
Secondary
- Estimate the percentage of patients who develop ≥ grade 2 peripheral neurotoxicity from
this regimen.
- Estimate the clinical response rate in patients with measurable disease treated with
this regimen.
- Assess the toxicity of this regimen.
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
Patients receive carboplatin IV and paclitaxel IV over 3 hours on day 1. Patients also
receive pegfilgrastim subcutaneously on day 2. Treatment repeats every 2 weeks for up to 8
courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 40 patients will be accrued for this study.

Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment
Number of patients who have ≥ 1 dose-limiting toxicity during 6 courses of treatment
