A Study of VB-111 With Paclitaxel vs Paclitaxel for Treatment of Recurrent Platinum-Resistant Ovarian Cancer (OVAL)
Trial Status: complete
The purpose of this phase 3, randomized, multicenter study is to compare VB-111 and
paclitaxel to placebo and paclitaxel in adult patients with Recurrent Platinum-Resistant
Ovarian Cancer.
Inclusion Criteria
Female patients ≥18 years of age
Histologically confirmed epithelial ovarian cancer and documented disease.
Patients must have platinum-resistant disease
Patients must have disease that is measurable according to RECIST 1.1 and require chemotherapy treatment.
ECOG PS 0-1.
Adequate hematological functions:
ANC ≥ 1000/mm3
PLT ≥ 100,000/mm3
PT and PTT (seconds) < 1.2 X ULN. Patients who are anticoagulated do not need to meet criteria for PT and PTT.
Patients who are known to carry a BRCA mutation may be enrolled only after (following PARP inhibitor treatment failure, or being intolerant of, or ineligible for PARP inhibitor treatment).
Exclusion Criteria
Non-epithelial tumors (Carcino-sarcomas are excluded)
Ovarian tumors with low malignant potential (i.e. borderline tumors) clear cell carcinomas, grade 1 serous tumors or mucinous tumors.
History of other clinically active malignancy within 5 years of enrollment, except for tumors with a negligible risk for metastasis or death, such as adequately controlled basal-cell carcinoma, adequately controlled, non-metastatic squamous-cell carcinoma of the skin, or carcinoma in situ of the cervix or breast.
Previous ovarian cancer treatment with >5 anticancer regimens.
Any prior radiotherapy to the pelvis or whole abdomen.
Inadequate liver function, defined as serum creatinine > ULN, unless calculated creatinine clearance > 50ml/min (by Cockroft & Gault formula):
Serum (total) bilirubin > ULN (Exception: documented Gilbert's disease patients can be enrolled)
Alkaline phosphatase, AST/SGOT or ALT/SGPT ≥2.5 x ULN (or ≥ 5 x ULN in the presence of liver metastases).
