EP-100 Plus Paclitaxel Versus Paclitaxel Alone in Patients With Ovarian Cancer — ESP2011-002  

Ovarian Cancer Recurrent Clinical Trial

Official title: EP-100, a Novel LHRH Receptor-Targeted, Membrane-Disrupting Peptide, Plus Paclitaxel Versus Paclitaxel Alone for Refractory or Recurrent Ovarian Cancer: A Phase II, Randomized, Multicenter Trial

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Primary Objectives: o Run-in Phase: Determine a dose of EP-100 at which the initial benefit/risk of paclitaxel combined with EP-100 can be studied. o Randomized Phase: Compare the anti-tumor effects of EP-100 combined with weekly paclitaxel versus paclitaxel alone in patients with ovarian cancer. Secondary Objectives: o Randomized Phase: Quantify any significant changes in the safety profile of weekly paclitaxel alone compared to the doublet combination of paclitaxel with EP-100. o Determine an initial benefit/risk profile for this new drug combination.

Clinical Trial Description

Total duration of the study for each participant is 9 to 10 months, consisting of a 1 month screening period, a 6 to 7 months treatment period, and a 30 day follow-up. All patients with stable disease or who have achieved partial or complete response and for whom dosing has been safe and reasonably well-tolerated may continue additional treatment cycles on the same regimen. Any patient whose imaging assessment shows disease progression after receiving at least two cycles of single agent weekly paclitaxel on ARM 1 may then be offered treatment with the combination of EP-100 plus paclitaxel in the same dose regimen as ARM 2. ;
