Ovarian cancer is the seventh most common type of cancer and the fifth leading cause of cancer death among women worldwide. The current usual therapeutic approach in this disease includes optimal cytoreductive therapy followed by platinum-based adjuvant chemotherapy, along with neoadjuvant chemotherapy prior to surgery in selected cases. The platinum-free interval (PFI) continues to be the most useful tool to assist in the selection of the subsequent therapy and to predict response to treatment. The combination of trabectedin and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) is useful in patients with partially platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer, in patients who have previously received two or more platinum-based chemotherapy regimens, in patients who have already experienced a platinum-induced hypersensitivity reaction and in patients who have previously failed to respond to a platinum-based treatment. Case Presentation: A 64-years-old postmenopausal woman with pain, abdominal distension, and an altered intestinal transit and with partially platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer, was successfully treated with a second line of trabectedin chemotherapy in combination with PLD, followed by trabectedin in monotherapy. This case proves the effectiveness of the combination of trabectedin and PLD and demonstrates how the administration of trabectedin, even in monotherapy, allows to maintain an adequate clinical response with good tolerance to the treatment during more than two years of drug administration.

PurposeThe objective of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of trabectedin plus pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) with that of PLD alone in women with recurrent ovarian cancer after failure of first-line, platinum-based chemotherapy.Patients and MethodsWomen ≥ 18 years, stratified by performance status (0 to 1 v 2) and platinum sensitivity, were randomly assigned to receive an intravenous infusion of PLD 30 mg/m2followed by a 3-hour infusion of trabectedin 1.1 mg/m2every 3 weeks or PLD 50 mg/m2every 4 weeks. The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS) by independent radiology assessment.ResultsPatients (N = 672) were randomly assigned to trabectedin/PLD (n = 337) or PLD (n = 335). Median PFS was 7.3 months with trabectedin/PLD v 5.8 months with PLD (hazard ratio, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.65 to 0.96; P = .0190). For platinum-sensitive patients, median PFS was 9.2 months v 7.5 months, respectively (hazard ratio, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.56 to 0.95; P = .0170). Overall response rate (ORR) was 27.6% for trabectedin/PLD v 18.8% for PLD (P = .0080); for platinum-sensitive patients, it was 35.3% v 22.6% (P = .0042), respectively. ORR, PFS, and overall survival among platinum-resistant patients were not statistically different. Neutropenia was more common with trabectedin/PLD. Grade 3 to 4 transaminase elevations were also more common with the combination but were transient and noncumulative. Hand-foot syndrome and mucositis were less frequent with trabectedin/PLD than with PLD alone.ConclusionWhen combined with PLD, trabectedin improves PFS and ORR over PLD alone with acceptable tolerance in the second-line treatment of recurrent ovarian cancer.

Gemcitabine and oxaliplatin have shown single-agent activity in relapsed ovarian cancer. This combination was used to determine response rates, time-to-event efficacy measures, and toxicity in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer. Patients with prior platinum-based chemotherapy who had measurable lesions and/or elevated CA-125 levels were identified as group A (platinum-refractory/platinum-resistant patients) and group B (platinum-sensitive patients). All patients received gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 on days 1 and 8 and oxaliplatin 130 mg/m2 on day 8 every 21 days for up to eight cycles. Seventy-five patients (21 in group A and 54 in group B), with a median age of 58 years (range, 37–78), were enrolled. A median of six cycles (range, 1–8) was administered. By intent-to-treat analysis, 15 patients with measurable disease achieved partial response for an overall best response rate of 20.0% (9.5% in group A and 24.1% in group B). CA-125 response was observed in 48.4% patients (30.0% in group A and 57.1% in group B). Median time to progressive disease was 7.1 months (95% CI, 5.6–9.0 months) with 5.0 months in group A and 8.3 months in group B. Median overall survival was 17.8 months (95% CI, 12.9–21.3 months) with 9.2 months for group A and 20.0 months for group B. Major grade 3/4 toxicities were neutropenia (61.3%), leukopenia (24.0%), nausea (16.0%), and vomiting (22.7%). We conclude that the combination of oxaliplatin and gemcitabine is active in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer, but the regimen is unsatisfactory for further study due to modest response and relatively high toxicity.

5032 Background: DMXAA (AS1404) is a small-molecule vascular disrupting agent, which in animal models shows additive or supra-additive effects with cytotoxics, including taxanes and platinum agents. This phase II study evaluated DMXAA in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel in recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer patients with a progression-free interval of more than 6 months after response to platinum-based chemotherapy. Methods: Patients had first diagnosed disease FIGO stage Ic-IV, with presence of recurrent disease confirmed by imaging. Patients were randomised 1:1 to receive up to 6 cycles of carboplatin (AUC 6 mg/ml × min) and paclitaxel (175 mg/m2) with or without DMXAA (1200 mg/m2). Safety assessments included EKG, adverse events, laboratory screens and ophthalmic exam. Efficacy endpoints are objective response rates, time to progression, duration of response and stable disease, and median and 1-year survival. Results: 55 patients have been enrolled to date from a planned total of ∼70. Initial safety findings in the two arms are comparable. Preliminary investigator-assessed RECIST response data show the following unconfirmed outcomes: of 17 patients in the DMXAA arm, there are 10 with partial responses (PRs), 7 with stable disease (SD) and 0 with progressive disease (PD); of 14 patients in the control arm, there are 8 PRs, 6 SDs and 0 PDs. Conclusions: Initial safety findings suggest that addition of DMXAA to standard doses of carboplatin and paclitaxel did not add significantly to toxicity. Efficacy assessments are ongoing to determine the value of the triple combination in recurrent ovarian cancer. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Given the high rate of recurrence of ovarian cancer, the search for new therapeutic strategies are topical issue. According to various studies the effectiveness of drug treatment relapse depends on the platinum-free interval, increasing in proportion to its duration. If therapy is platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer is a standard approach, the treatment of platinum-sensitive recurrent algorithm is not fully defined. Comparison of platinum and non-platinum combinations revealed the advantage of combined platinum- treatment for patients with platinum-free interval of more than 6 months without an increase in life expectancy. Non-platinum combination of trabectedin with pegylated liposomal doxorubicin has shown comparable efficacy with an advantage in overall survival in patients with platinum-free interval of 6–12 months. A platinum-free interval prolongation by the use of non-platinum mode increases the efficiency of subsequent platinum-based therapy, increasing the life expectancy of patients . Currently under study molecular markers and prognostic factors allowing to define a group of patients who have the greatest benefit from the use trabectedin with pegylated liposomal doxorubicin as second-line chemotherapy.

TPS5112 Background: Most women with ovarian cancer have disease recurrence after responding to their first treatment with platinum-based chemotherapy and are considered to have platinum-sensitive disease if the relapse-free period is more than 6 months. Although CbP is standard first-line chemotherapy for ovarian cancer, patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent disease are often retreated with CbP. Ombrabulin (AVE8062) is a vascular disrupting agent and analogue of combretastatin A4 that damages established tumor vasculature causing tumor necrosis and has synergistic antitumor activity with platinum agents in tumor models in vivo (Cancer Sci. 2003;94:200). A phase I study showed that treatment with vivo ombrabulin plus CbP is feasible in patients with advanced solid tumors (NCI-AACR-EORTC 2010;Abs 386). We initiated OPSALIN, a phase II randomized trial, to evaluate whether the addition of ombrabulin to CbP improves outcomes in patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer (NCT01332656; EFC10260). Methods: Eligibility criteria include age of at least 18 years, ECOG PS 0–2, measurable carcinoma of the ovarian epithelium, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneum that is platinum sensitive, and completion of only one previous line of platinum-based chemotherapy. Exclusion criteria include uncontrolled brain metastases, peripheral neuropathy >grade 1, and a prior history of cardiovascular disease. Patients are being randomized (1:1) to receive either ombrabulin 35mg/m2 or placebo plus CbP every 3 weeks. Assigned treatment will continue until disease progression or death, unacceptable toxicity, or consent withdrawal. The primary endpoint is progression-free survival stratified by the time of first disease recurrence (6–12 months or >12 months). Secondary endpoints include safety, response rate, overall survival, pharmacokinetics, and analysis of predictive/prognostic biomarkers. Planned randomization is a total of 150 patients at approximately 45 sites globally. Sixty-five patients have been randomized as of January 2012.

5534 Background: NORA is the first, phase III, randomized controlled trial (RCT) that demonstrated individualized starting dose regimen of niraparib, which significantly improved PFS in Chinese patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer (PSROC). This sub-group analysis evaluated the efficacy of niraparib maintenance therapy with and without secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCS) in PSROC. Methods: The NORA phase III RCT included adult (≥18 years) Chinese women with PSROC who were randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive oral niraparib (n = 177) or matched placebo (n = 88). This retrospective subgroup analysis was based on the progression-free survival (PFS) of niraparib maintenance therapy in these two groups of patients with PSROC, patients with SCS, and patients without SCS. The PFS was assessed by blinded independent central review. The Kaplan-Meier (KM) estimator and log-rank test were performed to calculate the median PFS time. Results: Of the 265 evaluable patients, 69 (26.0%) patients received the SCS (niraparib, n = 48; placebo, n = 21), and 196 (74.0%) patients were without SCS (niraparib, n = 129; placebo, n = 67). Among patients with and without SCS, baseline characteristics for BRCA mutation were 26.1% vs 41.8%, complete response to last platinum-based chemotherapy were 68.1% vs 43.9%, time (6-12 months) to progression after penultimate therapy were 23.2% vs 34.7%, respectively. Treatment with niraparib led to a significant reduction of risk to disease progression compared with placebo in patients with SCS (Hazard ratio [95% CI]: 0.32 [0.13–0.78]; P = 0.0102) and without SCS (0.34 [0.23–0.50]; P< 0.001). Moreover, in the subgroups of patients who received SCS, niraparib maintenance therapy had a significantly longer PFS compared with placebo (Median [95% CI]: not reached [18.33 – not estimable] vs 5.75 months [3.68 – not estimable]; P = 0.0102). This trend was also similar in the subgroup of patients who did not receive SCS (Median [95% CI]: 10.28 months [7.49 – 18.37] vs 4.90 months [3.71 – 5.52]; P < 0.0001). Conclusions: The results from this retrospective sub-group analysis revealed that niraparib maintenance therapy provided significant clinical efficacy in patients with PSROC, irrespective of SCS. Clinical trial information: NCT03705156.
