Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To explore the effect of adding DCVAC/OvCa to Standard of Care chemotherapy on PFS measured at 2 years after randomization in women with ovarian cancer who have undergone debulking surgery;Secondary Objective: •Proportion of patients staying in remission at 6 months after the last dose of first line chemotherapy •Proportion of patients staying in remission at 12 months after the last dose of first line chemotherapy •Biological progression free interval •Immunological response •Proportion of patients requiring second line chemotherapy •Time to second line chemotherapy •OS •Safety •Changes in quality of life (QoL) ;Primary end point(s): Progression free survival (PFS; time from randomization to documented disease progression, or death from any cause) measured at 2 years after randomization where disease progression is defined as unequivocal progression of any existing lesions or appearance of any measurable lesion or development of tumor-related symptoms documented by computerized tomography (CT) scan or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan. The median PFS will be presented if at least 50% of patients progress;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At 2 years after randomization. The median of PFS will be presented if at least 50% of patients progress | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): •Proportion of patients staying in remission at 6 months after the last dose of first line chemotherapy •Proportion of patients staying in remission at 12 months after the last dose of first line chemotherapy •Biological progression free interval defined by increasing CA 125 levels (PFIBIO) (Gynecologic Cancer Intergroup [GCIG]: http://www.gcig.igcs.org/CA125/respdef_nov2005.pdf) •Immunological response – detection of entire anti-tumor response (samples to be collected and frozen) •Proportion of patients requiring second line chemotherapy treatment •Time to second line therapy (after the last dose of first line chemotherapy) •OS (time from randomization to death from any cause) until End of Study (EOS) Adverse Events (AEs), including laboratory abnormalities Evaluation of QoL using standardized FACT-O (Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Ovarian) questionnaire ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Proportion of patients staying in remission at 6 month after the last dose of first line chemotherapy Proportion of patients staying in remission at 12 months after the last dose of first line chemotherapy Time to second line therapy (after the last dose of first line chemotherapy) OS (time from randomization to death from any cause) until at least 50% of patients in each group have died | — |
