Temsirolimus in Treating Patients With Refractory or Recurrent Ovarian Epithelial, Fallopian Tube, or Primary Peritoneal Cancer

NCT ID: NCT00429793

Last Updated: 2019-07-24

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: COMPLETED
• Clinical Phase: PHASE2
• Total Enrollment: 60 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2007-02-28
• Study Completion Date: 2012-01-31

Brief Summary

This phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well temsirolimus works in treating patients with refractory or recurrent ovarian epithelial cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer. Temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES: Primary I. Determine the 6-month progression-free survival (PFS) or objective tumor response in patients with refractory or recurrent ovarian epithelial, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cavity cancer treated with temsirolimus.

II. Determine the toxicity of this drug in these patients.

Secondary I. Determine the duration of PFS and overall survival of these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a nonrandomized, multicenter study.

Patients receive temsirolimus IV over 30 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, and 22. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months for 3 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 52 patients will be accrued for this study.

• See Disease Characteristics
• Recovered from prior surgery, radiotherapy, or chemotherapy
• At least 1 week since prior hormonal therapy directed at the malignant tumor

• No prior radiotherapy to any portion of the abdominal cavity or pelvis, except for the treatment of ovarian cancer
• No prior non-cytotoxic therapy for management of recurrent or persistent ovarian disease, except for therapy that was part of the primary treatment regimen
• Two additional cytotoxic regimens (defined as 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) for management of recurrent or persistent ovarian disease allowed
