5559 Background: The prognosis of patients with REOC is extremely poor after several lines of chemotherapy. The choice and timing of therapies must be individualized to optimize survival and quality of life. This open-label, nonrandomized, phase II study was aimed at evaluating efficacy and toxicity of Trabectedin as a single-agent therapy in patients with preteated Recurrent Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (REOC). Methods: Sixteen patients (median age 51 yrs, range 44 – 71) with REOC who progressed after 2 (18.7%), 3 (56.3%) or 4 (25.0%) previous lines of chemotherapy were treated with Trabectedin at the dose of 1.1 mg/m2 via a 3-hour i.v. infusion with dexamethasone pretreatment every 3 weeks until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity or when a stability of disease was reached. Clinical objective response was the primary efficacy endpoint; the secondary one was safety. Response to treatment was assessed according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST, version 1.1), and toxicities were graded according to NCI Common Toxicity Criteria, version 2.0. Results: The median number of treatment cycles per patients was 5 (range, 2-9 cycles). A total of 81 cycles were administered. A dose reduction was never required. Main toxicities included anemia (20.9%), leucopenia (15.0%), thrombocytopenia (4.5%) and asthenia (22.2%). No deaths were attributable to therapy. No one showed complete response, while 9/16 partial response (56.2%) and 4/16 stable disease (25.0%) were observed. 3/19 pts (18.8%) progressed on therapy. The median progression-free interval was 18 weeks in patients with partial response; stable disease was maintained for a median time of 12 weeks. Conclusions: Trabectedin 1.1mg/m2 given as a 3-hour i.v. infusion every 3 weeks was well tolerated and has confirmed a very interesting antitumor activity in this heavily pretreated population and it seems also to be a very tolerable regimen. The co-treatment with dexamethasone improves the safety of Trabectedin by reducing drug-induced myelosuppression and hepatotoxicity. Trabectedin has a manageable toxicity profile, and can be safely administered thanks to its secure action profile also in patients with no other viable therapeutic options.

5577 Background: MKC-1 is a novel oral cell cycle inhibitor with preclinical activity in xenograft models of human ovarian and endometrial cancers. MKC-1 also reduces pAKT, an attractive target in endometrial cancer due to frequent PTEN mutations. Methods: The objective of this phase II study is to assess the efficacy of MKC-1 in 2 patient (pt) populations: metastatic or recurrent platinum-resistant ovarian cancer (EOC) and advanced endometrial cancer (EC). Three prior lines of treatment were allowed in both groups. A two arm, parallel group multicenter 2-stage design was used. The primary endpoint was tumor response by RECIST or CA-125. MKC-1 125 mg/m2 was administered orally twice daily for 14 days in 28-day cycles. Results: Accrual to stage one is complete with 21 pts in each arm. 19 pts with EOC (median age 56 yrs, range 31–71) and 9 patients with EC (median 63 range 50–74) were available for efficacy. A total of 66 cycles (EOC/EC: 39/27cycles) median 2 per patient (range 1–8) were delivered. 11/4 pts had prior adjuvant CT, 14/10 had prior systemic CT for advanced disease, and 2/6 received prior radiation. In pts with EOC, 7 pts have stable disease (SD), 12 progressive disease (PD), 2 remain on study. Median time to progression is 1.8 months. In pts with EC 4 pts had SD, 5 PD, 6 remain on study. Toxicity data are available in 28 pts (17/11). Most common adverse events (AE) possibly related to MKC-1 were fatigue, nausea, elevated ALT or AST, urine discoloration, anemia, anorexia, elevated AP and gastrointestinal disorder in 55%, 39%, 36%, 24%, 23%, 21%, 21%, and 21 % of cycles respectively. The only possibly related grade 3+ AEs were neutropenia, leucopenia and hyponatremia in 9 %, 3 %, and 2% of cycles. Conclusions: MKC-1 was well tolerated in both patient populations. Single agent MKC-1 has insufficient activity in platinum resistant EOC to warrant further investigation. Updated clinical data for both patient groups will be presented at the meeting.

PURPOSE Topotecan, a topoisomerase I inhibitor, was evaluated in a multicenter, phase II study of women with epithelial ovarian carcinoma who relapsed after one or two prior regimens that included platinum and paclitaxel. PATIENTS AND METHODS Topotecan 1.5 mg/m2 daily was administered as a 30-minute infusion for 5 consecutive days on a 21-day cycle. Eligibility criteria included bidimensionally measurable disease, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 2 or less, and adequate bone marrow, liver, and renal function. Efficacy was assessed by independent radiologic review. RESULTS One hundred thirty-nine patients were treated; 81% were platinum resistant. Sixty-two patients had received one prior regimen and 77 patients had received two prior regimens. Nine patients were not assessable for response; however, all patients were included in the response analysis. The overall response rate was 13.7%; 12.4% in platinum-resistant and 19.2% in platinum-sensitive patients. Stable disease lasted at least 8 weeks in 27.3% of the patients. The median duration of response and time to progression were 18.1 and 12.1 weeks, respectively. The median survival was 47.0 weeks. Grade 4 neutropenia occurred in 82% of the patients (34% of the courses) and thrombocytopenia in 30% of the patients (9% of the courses). Infectious complications occurred in 6% of the courses. Nonhematologic toxicities were mild. There were no drug-related toxic deaths. CONCLUSION As a single agent, topotecan has modest activity in women with advanced epithelial ovarian carcinoma who have progressed or not responded after one or two prior regimens with platinum and paclitaxel. Further investigation of combination regimens is indicated in the primary therapy for ovarian cancer based on the mechanism of action and tolerability.

Purpose: A phase II study was conducted to determine the efficacy of oxaliplatin therapy in patients with platinum-resistant or refractory epithelial ovarian carcinoma. Materials and Methods: Eligible patients were to receive oxaliplatin 130 mg/m2 intravenously over 2 hours, every 21 days, until progression of disease or adverse effects prohibited further therapy. Results: Of 25 patients entered onto the study, 23 were eligible and assessable. There were no patients with complete response. One patient (4.3%) achieved a partial response, with a response duration of 6.4 months. Nine patients (39.1%) experienced stable disease, with a median duration of 5.6+ months (range, 1.8 to 13.1months). The most frequently reported drug-related toxicities were hematologic, gastrointestinal, and neurologic. Conclusion: Oxaliplatin as a single agent has minimal activity in patients with platinum-resistant or refractory ovarian cancer at the dosage and schedule tested. However, future studies of oxaliplatin combined with other active agents in women with platinum-naïve or platinum-sensitive epithelial ovarian carcinoma may be indicated.
