Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: COMPLETED
• Clinical Phase: PHASE2
• Total Enrollment: 36 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2008-09-30

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of sunitinib on participants with ovarian, fallopian tube or peritoneal cancer. Sunitinib is a newly discovered drug that may stop cancer cells from growing by blocking the blood supply to the tumor.

Detailed Description

This study used a two-stage design to evaluate efficacy of sunitinib based on overall response (OR) defined as complete response (CR) or partial response (PR). The null and alternative OR rate were 5% and 20%. If one or more patients enrolled in the stage one cohort (n=17 patients) achieved PR or better than accrual would proceed to stage two (n=18 patients). There was 42% probability of stopping the trial at stage one if the true OR rate was 5%. With 35 patients, this design had 85% power to detect the 15% difference in OR rates assuming 2-sided type I error rate of 0.05.
