Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Phase II Study of Interaction of Lovastatin and Paclitaxel For Patients With Refractory or Relapsed Ovarian Cancer (NCT NCT00585052)

NCT ID: NCT00585052

Last Updated: 2018-01-05

Results Overview

Lesions that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded) as \>/= 20 mm with conventional techniques. The same method of assessment and the same technique should be used to characterize each identified and reported lesion at baseline and during follow up. Image based evaluation is preferred to evaluation by clinical examination * Clinical Examination: Clinically detected lesions will only be considered measurable when they are superficial (e.g. skin nodules and palpable lymph nodes.) * Image based evaluation (CT and MRI): Conventional CT and MRI are currently the most reproducible methods of measuring lesions for response assessment.
