Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to see if the investigators can improve the treatment of this type of cancer. They want to find out what effects, good and/or bad, giving heated chemotherapy into the belly, known as hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), has on the patient and this type of cancer.

The goal of HIPEC is to expose any cancer left in the abdomen after surgery to high doses of chemotherapy. The chemotherapy is heated in the hope that this will make it easier for it to get into and kill the cancer cells. The drug used for HIPEC will be carboplatin, a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved drug for use in ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer.

  • Procedure: Secondary Cytoreductive Surgery
  • Drug: Carboplatin Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC)

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Secondary Cytoreductive Surgery with HIPEC

secondary cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with or without carboplatin-based hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) followed by systemic combination chemotherapy for recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. Patients will be randomized intraoperatively to undergo CRS with HIPEC (arm A) or CRS only (arm B) in a manner 1:1. Both arms will receive a standard platinum-based systemic chemotherapy postoperatively (5 cycles in arm A and 6 cycles in arm B). In some patients randomized to HIPEC at MSKCC only , peritoneal fluid and blood samples will be drawn before, during and after the HIPEC procedure.

Procedure: Secondary Cytoreductive Surgery

Drug: Carboplatin Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC)

Drug: platinum-based systemic chemotherapy postoperatively
5 cycles

Experimental: Secondary Cytoreductive Surgery without HIPEC

secondary cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with or without carboplatin-based hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) followed by systemic combination chemotherapy for recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. Patients will be randomized intraoperatively to undergo CRS with HIPEC (arm A) or CRS only (arm B) in a manner 1:1. Both arms will receive a standard platinum-based systemic chemotherapy postoperatively (5 cycles in arm A and 6 cycles in arm B).

Procedure: Secondary Cytoreductive Surgery

Drug: platinum-based systemic chemotherapy postoperatively
6 cycles

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. determine the proportion of patients who are without evidence of disease progression [24 months]

    A proportion of patients ≥ 40%, who are without evidence of disease progression at 24 months, is considered acceptable, whereas a proportion of ≤ 25% is considered not acceptable in this patient population.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. To determine the toxicity and postoperative complications rate [4 weeks post op]

    The safety endpoint of our trial is to determine toxicity and postoperative complication rates in both arms using NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0. and MSKCC Surgical Secondary Events Grading System for complications.

  2. determine the completion rate of four cycles [5 years]

    A secondary analysis of estimating the completion rate will be conducted. The completion rate and a 95% confidence interval will be calculated for each arm separately. Completion is defined as patients being able to complete ≥ 4 out of 5 or 6 cycles of a standard systemic chemotherapy.

  3. pharmacokinetics [5 years]

    in a subset of patients randomized to receive HIPEC in the OR. In patients randomized to HIPEC, peritoneal fluid and blood samples only from MSKCC patients will be drawn before, during and after the HIPEC procedure.

Eligibility Criteria

Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study:
21 Years and Older
Sexes Eligible for Study:
Female
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
No
Inclusion Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria for Eligibility Prior to Surgery:
  • Age ≥ 21 years old.

  • Patients with histologic diagnosis of epithelial ovarian carcinoma, primary peritoneal carcinoma, or fallopian tube carcinoma that has recurred >6 months since platinum-based chemotherapy (first recurrence) and who are scheduled for secondary surgical evaluation/cytoreduction.

  • Histologic epithelial cell types include serous, endometrioid, clear cell, or undifferentiated carcinomas, transitional cell carcinoma, mixed epithelial carcinoma, malignant Brenner's tumor, or adenocarcinoma N.O.S.

  • Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) of ≥ 70%.

  • Disease-free interval ≤ 30 months.

  • No prior chemotherapy in the recurrent setting. Prior hormonal therapy is permitted. Concomitant anti-neoplastic anti-hormonal therapy (including tamoxifen, aromatase inhibitors etc.) is not allowed for patients participating in study treatment. Low-dose (physiologic) estrogen hormone-replacement therapy (HRT) may be given.

  • Patients receiving maintenance biologic therapy are eligible, provided their recurrence is documented more than 6 months from completion of primary cytotoxic chemotherapy (includes maintenance chemotherapy) and a minimum of 3 weeks has elapsed since their last infusion of biologic therapy at the start of protocol intervention, day 1.

  • Patients must be, after evaluation by the investigator, appropriate candidates for the administration of 5 to 6 cycles of standard platinum-based combination chemotherapy (carboplatin and paclitaxel, carboplatin and liposomal doxorubicin, or carboplatin and gemcitabine) following CRS with or without HIPEC.

  • Bone marrow function:

  • Hemoglobin ≥ 8.5 g/dL.

  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,000/mm3.

  • Platelets ≥ 100,000/mm3.

  • Renal function:

  • Creatinine ≤ 1.5mg/dl

  • Hepatic function:

  • Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 times ULN.

  • ALT ≤ 3 times the ULN.

  • AST ≤ 3 times the ULN.

  • Neurologic function:

  • Peripheral neuropathy ≤ CTC AE grade 2.

  • Blood coagulation parameters:

  • PT with an INR of ≤ 1.5 and a PTT ≤ 1.5 times the ULN. For patients on full-dose oral anti-coagulation (such as warfarin or rivaroxaban), in-range INR (usually between 2 and 3) and a PTT <1.2 times the ULN.

  • Patients of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 2 weeks prior to CRS and must be practicing an effective form of contraception during the study period.

Inclusion Criteria for Eligibility Post-Surgery:
  • Patients will be consented prior to the surgical evaluation/cytoreductive surgery. Patients must have less than or equal to 0.5cm residual disease at the completion of the secondary surgery to be eligible for the study.

  • Subjects with known active acute hepatitis.

  • Subjects with active infection that requires parenteral antibiotics.

  • Active coronary artery disease (defined as unstable angina or a positive cardiac stress test).

  • Patients with a history of coronary artery disease may be included if they have had a normal stress test within 30 days of enrollment.
