e17032 Background: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of weekly paclitaxel or cisplatin with electro-hyperthermia in patients with recurrent or persistent epithelial ovarian, fallopian tubal or primary peritoneal carcinoma. Methods: This prospective trial employed ‘3+3 design’ with no dose escalation. Initially, patients were randomized to weekly paclitaxel (70mg/m2) or weekly cisplatin (40mg/m2) with electro-hyperthermia until three patients in each arm were evaluable for dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs). A cycle was 4 weeks long and paclitaxel or cisplatin was administered at day 1, 8, 15. Targeting tumor beds, electro-hyperthermia was administered semi-weekly (8 time/cycle) for 1 hour per session. DLT was defined as any adverse event possibly or probably related to therapy, that required intensive care or was not recovered to grade 2 or lower within 3 weeks. If ≤1 patient in an arm experienced DLT, additional 3 patients were enrolled to that arm. Unevaluable patients (n = 4) were replaced. Finally, 12 patients (6 in each arm) were evaluated for toxicities, response rate, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Results: Nine patients had high grade serous histology. Median number of previous regimen was 2 (range 1- 5) and median treatment-free interval from previous chemotherapy was 6 months (range 0 – 27). Nine patients were platinum resistant or refractory. No DLT was observed. Four grade 3 toxicities were observed (nausea 1, hematologic 3) in cisplatin arm. Overall response rate was 42% (5/12), median PFS was 4.3 months (range 1.7 – 11.8), and median OS was over 13.8 months (range 3.9 – > 38.5). Conclusions: Both weekly paclitaxel and cisplatin with electro-hyperthermia are safe enough to be tested in further studies. Chemotherapy with electro-hyperthermia was seems to be an effective treatment strategy for recurrent or persistent epithelial ovarian, fallopian tubal or primary peritoneal carcinomas. No significant differences in oncologic outcomes and toxicities were observed between paclitaxel and cisplatin arms. Clinical trial information: NCT02344095.

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of weekly paclitaxel and cisplatin chemotherapy (wTP) in patients with ovarian cancer who developed carboplatin hypersensitivity reaction (HSR). Methods: We retrospectively investigated 86 patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, and peritoneal carcinoma who developed carboplatin HSR during previous chemotherapy (carboplatin and paclitaxel) at our institution between 2011 and 2019. After premedication was administered, paclitaxel was administered over 1 h, followed by cisplatin over 1 h (paclitaxel 80 mg/m2; cisplatin 25 mg/m2; 1, 8, 15 day/4 weeks). We investigated the incidence of patients who successfully received wTP for at least one cycle, treatments compliance, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). Results: The median number of wTP administration cycles was 4 (Interquartile Range IQR, 3–7), 71 patients (83%) successfully received wTP, and 15 patients (17%) developed cisplatin HSR. The efficacy of treatment was as follows: 55 (64%) patients completed the scheduled wTP, 9 (10%) patients discontinued due to HSR to cisplatin within 6 cycles, 1 (1%) patient discontinued due to renal toxicity (grade 2) at the 6th cycle, and 21 (24%) patients discontinued due to progressive disease within 6 cycles. The median PFS and OS after administration of wTP were 10.9 months (95% CI: 7.7–17.7) and 25.9 months (95% CI: 19.0–50.2), respectively. Conclusions: wTP was safe and well-tolerated in patients who developed carboplatin HSR.
