PurposeThe management of recurrent ovarian cancer remains controversial. Single-agent topotecan is an established treatment option, and preliminary evidence suggests improved tumor control by combining topotecan with etoposide or gemcitabine.Patients and MethodsWomen with relapsed ovarian cancer after primary surgery and platinum-based chemotherapy were randomly assigned to topotecan monotherapy 1.25 mg/m2/d, topotecan 1.0 mg/m2plus oral etoposide 50 mg/d, or topotecan 0.5 mg/m2/d plus gemcitabine 800 mg/m2on day 1 and 600 mg/m2on day 8 every 3 weeks. Patients were stratified for platinum-refractory and platinum-sensitive disease according to a recurrence-free interval of less or more than 12 months, respectively. The primary end point was overall survival. Secondary end points included progression-free survival, objective response rates, toxicity, and quality of life (as measured by the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer [EORTC] 30-item Quality-of-Life Questionnaire).ResultsThe trial enrolled 502 patients with a mean age of 60.5 years (± 10.2 years), 208 of whom were platinum resistant. Median overall survival was 17.2 months (95% CI, 13.5 to 21.9 months) with topotecan, 17.8 months (95% CI, 13.7 to 20.0 months) with topotecan plus etoposide (log-rank P = .7647), and 15.2 months (95% CI, 11.3 to 20.9 months) with topotecan plus gemcitabine (log-rank P = .2344). Platinum-sensitive patients lived significantly longer than platinum-refractory patients (21.9 v 10.6 months). The median progression-free survival was 7.0, 7.8, and 6.3 months, respectively. Objective response rates were 27.8%, 36.1%, and 31.6%, respectively. Patients under combined treatment were at higher risk of severe thrombocytopenia.ConclusionNonplatinum topotecan combinations do not provide a survival advantage over topotecan alone in women with relapsed ovarian cancer.

IntroductionThe role of cytoreductive surgery in the poly-ADP ribose polymerase inhibitors era is not fully investigated. We evaluated the impact of surgery performed prior to platinum-based chemotherapy followed by olaparib maintenance in platinum-sensitive BRCA-mutated recurrent ovarian cancer.MethodsThis retrospective study included platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer BRCA-mutated patients from 13 Multicenter Italian Trials in Ovarian cancer and gynecological malignancies centers treated between September 2015 and May 2019. The primary outcomes were progression-free survival and overall survival. Data on post-progression treatment was also assessed.ResultsAmong 209 patients, 72 patients (34.5%) underwent cytoreductive surgery followed by platinum-based chemotherapy and olaparib maintenance, while 137 patients (65.5%) underwent chemotherapy treatment alone. After a median follow-up of 37.3 months (95% CI: 33.4 to 40.8), median progression-free survival in the surgery group was not reached, compared with 11 months in patients receiving chemotherapy alone (P<0.001). Median overall survival was nearly double in patients undergoing surgery before chemotherapy (55 vs 28 months, P<0.001). Post-progression therapy was assessed in 127 patients: response rate to chemotherapy was 29.2%, 8.8%, and 9.0% in patients with platinum-free interval >12 months, between 6 and 12 months, and <6 months, respectively.ConclusionCytoreductive surgery performed before platinum therapy and olaparib maintenance was associated with longer progression-free survival and overall survival in BRCA-mutated platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer patients. In accordance with our preliminary results, the response rate to chemotherapy given after progression during olaparib was associated with platinum-free interval.

5506 Background: ICON6 is a three-arm double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 trial of cediranib in platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer (NCT00532194). The primary analysis (Ledermann et al Lancet 2016) showed a significant (p < 0.0001), 2.3 month extension in progression-free survival (PFS) using cediranib with chemotherapy and as maintenance compared to chemotherapy and placebo. We present the final overall survival (OS) results. Methods: The trial was originally designed to recruit 2000 patients with OS as the primary endpoint. AstraZeneca discontinued cediranib development in Sep 2011, leading to an unplanned redesign prior to analysis. The sample size was reduced and primary outcome became PFS, comparing two arms, placebo (A) to cediranib given with chemotherapy and as maintenance (C). In arm B cediranib was given with chemotherapy followed by placebo maintenance. Analysis of PFS was performed on a sample size of 456 patients receiving a 20mg dose of cediranib. At the primary analysis, 52% patients had died; this mature OS analysis was performed after 85% patients died. Results: The OS analysis was performed at a median 25.6 months follow up; 102/118 (86%) died in A and 140/164 (85%) in C. In A the median survival was 19.9 months (95% CI: 17.4, 26.5) and in C 27.3 months (24.8, 33.0). Using the logrank test the Hazard Ratio estimate was 0.85 (0.66, 1.10) in favour of cediranib (p = 0.21). Evidence of non-proportionality of the survival curves was observed (p = 0.0029), so we measured the Restricted Mean Survival Time as an alternative to the median. Over 6 years, there was a 4.8 month (-0.1, 9.8) increase in time to death in C compared to A, from 29.4 to 34.2 months. The mean for arm B (32.0 months) was consistent with a benefit of increased use of cediranib. Conclusions: Cediranib has demonstrated a significant effect in increasing PFS. The mature survival analysis (85%) shows an improvement in median OS of 7.4 months, and an incremental benefit with increased cediranib use. The previously published significant PFS benefit coupled with the increase in OS highlights the potential value of cediranib in platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer. Further exploration of cediranib in this setting is underway. Clinical trial information: NCT00532194.

ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to assess the safety and feasibility of macroscopically complete (R0) secondary debulking surgery (SDS) in a single-center cohort of patients with recurrent ovarian cancer. The performances of existing prediction models (DESKTOP score, Tian model) for R0 SDS were evaluated in this cohort.MethodsPatient, disease, and treatment characteristics of 102 patients undergoing SDS for recurrent ovarian cancer at the University Hospitals Leuven between 1997 and 2014 were collected.ResultsR0 SDS was achieved in 73% of patients and associated with improved progression-free survival (P = 0.0002) and overall survival (P = 0.0003) compared with non-R0 resection. Variables associated with R0 SDS were site of relapse (P = 0.046) and absence of ascites (P = 0.045). The DESKTOP score and Tian model showed positive predictive values for R0 SDS of 80% and 73%, respectively. However, a false-negative rate for R0 resection of 61% and 70% was observed in our study. Progression-free survival and overall survival did not significantly differ between DESKTOP score–positive and –negative patients with R0 SDS.ConclusionsWe confirmed a high positive predictive value in the selection of candidates for R0 SDS with the DESKTOP score and the Tian model. However, because 61% and 70% of the patients with a negative score were debulked to R0, we suggest that other selection criteria based on anatomic and metabolic imaging such as whole-body diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging should be evaluated when selecting patients for SDS.

5558 Background: For ovarian cancer (OC) patients with platinum-sensitive recurrence the addition of new biologic agents to chemotherapy may improve survival. Panitumumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody specific to the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). The purpose of this trial was to investigate the therapeutic efficacy of panitumumab in the combination with carboplatin-based chemotherapy in relation to the respective standard combination in patients with a KRAS wildtype with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer (NCT01388621). Methods: Major eligibility criteria were pretreated platinum-sensitive epithelial ovarian/ fallopian/ peritoneal cancer and no more than 2 prior treatments for this disease. Only patients with measurable disease or elevated CA125 and with KRAS wild type were eligible. Patients were treated with Carboplatin AUC4/Gemcitabine 1000 mg/m² or Carboplatin AUC5/PLD 40 mg/m² and randomized to panitumumab 6 mg/kg day 1 and day 15, every 3 or 4 weeks. Tumor assessment was performed at baseline and at every third cycle according to CT-scan and CA-125 criteria. Results: In this multi-institutional phase II trial 102 patients were randomized and 96 enrolled for the final analysis. Progression-free survival in the intention-to-treat population (N=96) was 9.5 vs. 10.7 months (HR 0.829, 95%CI of 8.5-11.6 months vs 8.5-13.1 months) for the experimental vs. standard arm, p=0.45. Data of overall survival are not jet evaluable. The most common treatment related grade 3+ toxicities included hematologic toxicity (54%), skin reactions (18%) and gastrointestinal events (16%). Conclusions: The addition of panitumumab to platinum-based chemotherapy for recurrent ovarian cancer does not influence efficacy and progression-free survival in platinum sensitive patients, while no new additional toxicity aspects for panitumumab were evaluated. Clinical trial information: NCT01388621.
