Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of CHRONO trial is to compare the DFS when surgery is performed after 3 courses of NACT, or after 6 courses of NACT, in a prospective multi institutional randomized setting,considering only patients initially unsuitable for primary surgery.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Interval Debulking Surgery (IDS)

Complete surgery after 3 courses of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT)

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Standard IDS (Interval Debulking Surgery)

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Patient will receive 3 courses of i.v carboplatine and paclitaxel every 3 weeks followed by IDS (Interval Debulking Surgery) within 6 weeks from C3D1. After surgery patient will undergo 5 more courses of carboplatine and paclitaxel chemotherapy.

Treatment accepted :

Paclitaxel and carboplatin could will be administred according to the site practice and Saint-Paul-de-Vence recommendation (Joly et al, 2017):

* paclitaxel 175 mg/m² + carboplatin AUC 5-6, D1=D21 or
* paclitaxel 80 mg/m² at J1-J8-J15 + carboplatin AUC 5-6, D1=D21 or
* paclitaxel 60 mg/m² D1-D8-D15 + carboplatin AUC2 D1-D8-D15, D1= D21
* Adjuvant therapy and maintenance (optional)according to national recommendations (Saint Paul de Vence)

Retarded Interval Debulking Surgery (IDS)

Complete surgery after 6 courses of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT)

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Retarded IDS (Interval Debulking Surgery)

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Patient will receive 6 courses of i.v carboplatine and paclitaxel every 3 weeks followed by IDS (Interval Debulking Surgery) within 6 weeks from C6D1. After surgery patient will undergo 2 more courses of carboplatine and paclitaxel chemotherapy

Treatment accepted :

Paclitaxel and carboplatin could will be administred according to the site practice and Saint-Paul-de-Vence recommendation (Joly et al, 2017):
