Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: - Written informed consent and patients awareness and willingness to comply with the study requirements - Primary diagnosis is confirmed by specialized pathology review (Germany only) - Age = 18 years - Histologically confirmed, newly diagnosed epithelial ovarian carcinoma, fallopian tube carcinoma or primary peritoneal carcinoma and FIGO stage IIB - IV (all grades and all histological types) - Patients should have already undergone surgical debulking and no planned surgical debulking prior to disease progression.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: - Non-epithelial origin of the ovary, the fallopian tube or the peritoneum - Borderline tumours and FIGO stage IA – IIA - Planned intraperitoneal cytotoxic chemotherapy - Surgery (including open biopsy) within 4 weeks prior to anticipated first dose of bevacizumab or anticipation of interval cytoreductive surgery during study treatment - Uncontrolled hypertension - Any previous radiotherapy to the abdomen or pelvis - Previous Cerebro-Vascular Accident, Transient Ischaemic Attack or Sub-Arachnoid Haemorrhage within 6 months prior to randomisation - Malignancies other than ovarian cancer within 5 years prior to randomisation, except for adequately treated carcinoma in situ of the cervix and/or basal cell skin cancer and/or non-melanomatous skin cancer, carcinoma in situ of the breast and/or early endometrial carcinoma - Patients with synchronous primary endometrial carcinoma, or a past history of primary endometrial carcinoma, are excluded unless the given single criterion is met - Non healing wound, active ulcer or bone fracture - History or evidence of thrombotic or hemorrhagic disorders - Clinically significant cardiovascular disease, including Myocardial infarction or unstable angina within 6 months of randomisation, NYHA = Grade 2, poorly controlled cardiac arrhythmia despite medication, Grade = 3 peripheral vascular disease - Current or recent (within 10 days prior to randomisation) chronic use of aspirin > 325 mg/day or use of any other inhibitor of platelet aggregation.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To compare progression-free survival (PFS) (by RECIST v1.1, clinical or symptomatic) of patients randomized to front-line paclitaxel/carboplatin with bevacizumab for 15 months or 30 months.;Secondary Objective: - Objective response rate by RECIST v1.1 - Overall survival - Health related Quality of life using EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-OV28 questionnaires - Safety and tolerability Further exploratory outcome measures on ancillary studies will include: - Translational Sub Studies - Complementary and Alternative Treatment Qestionnaires;Primary end point(s): Progression-free survival (PFS);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At least 697 PFS events have been observed or after data base closure on 30th of November 2020, which ever comes first.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): - Objective response rate (ORR) - Overall survival (OS) - Quality of life (QoL) - Safety and tolerability Further exploratory outcome measures on ancillary studies will include: - Translational Sub Studies - Complementary and Alternative Treatment Questionnaires;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: OS: 7.5 years appr.
