Inclusion Criteria


Eligibility Criteria

Disease Characteristics

- recurrent or persistent epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal
carcinoma with histologic documentation of the original primary tumor.

least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest
diameter to be recorded).

defined by RECIST 1.1 (Section 8.1).

disease containing carboplatin, cisplatin, or another organoplatinum compound. This
initial treatment may have included intraperitoneal therapy, consolidation,
non-cytotoxic agents or extended therapy administered after surgical or non-surgical
assessment.

- one additional cytotoxic regimen for management of recurrent or persistent disease
according to the following definition is allowed: Cytotoxic regimens include any
agent that targets the genetic and/or mitotic apparatus of dividing cells, resulting
in dose-limiting toxicity to the bone marrow and/or gastrointestinal mucosa.

- patients who have received only one prior cytotoxic regimen (platinum-based regimen
for management of primary disease), must have a platinum-free interval of less than
12 months, or have progressed during platinum-based therapy, or have persistent
disease after a platinum-based therapy.

greater than or equal to 130 mEq/L (CTCAE v. 4, grade 0 or 1).

- Urine Protein: Urine protein should be screened by urinalysis. If protein is 2+ or
higher, 24-hour urine protein should be obtained and the level should be <1000 mg
(<1.0 g/24 hrs) for patient enrollment.

- Bilirubin less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN. ALT and AST less than or equal to 3 x
ULN. Alkaline phosphatase less than or equal to 3 x ULN.

- Albumin greater than or equal to 3 (CTCAE v. 4, grade 0 or 1).

- PT such that international normalized ratio (INR) is less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN
(or an in-range INR, usually between 2 and 3, if a patient is on a stable dose of
therapeutic warfarin) and PTT less than or equal to 1.5 x ULN.

- Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) greater than 50% (measured by
echocardiogram or MUGA [multi-gated acquisition] scan).

- negative pregnancy test

- 18 years or older.

Ineligibility Criteria

- non-cytotoxic therapy for management of recurrent or persistent disease. Patients
are allowed to receive, but are not required to receive, biologic (non-cytotoxic)
therapy as part of their primary treatment regimen.

- previous treatment with dalantercept or any other anti-ALK1 (activin receptor-like
kinase 1) agent.

- history of other invasive malignancies, with the exception of non-melanoma skin
cancer and other specific malignancies previously noted, if there is any evidence of
other malignancy being present within the last three years.

- previous cancer treatment contraindicates this protocol therapy.

- prior radiotherapy to any portion of the abdominal cavity or pelvis OTHER THAN for
the treatment of ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer within the
last three years; prior radiation for localized cancer of the breast, head and neck,
or skin is permitted, provided that it was completed more than three years prior to
registration, and the patient remains free of recurrent or metastatic disease.

- prior chemotherapy for any abdominal or pelvic tumor OTHER THAN for the treatment of
ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer within the last three years are
excluded. Patients may have received prior adjuvant chemotherapy for localized breast
cancer, provided that it was completed more than three years prior to registration,
and that the patient remains free of recurrent or metastatic disease.
