Brief summary

In this study, patients with relapsed or refractory ovarian cancer will receive treatment with pazopanib and liposomal doxorubicin (Doxil) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs. The Phase I portion will define the dose limiting toxicity (DLT) of pazopanib and liposomal doxorubicin when administered in combination. Once the maximum tolerated dose has been identified in the Phase I portion, the Phase II portion will evaluate efficacy and safety of this combination in the same patient population.

Detailed description

In this study, patients with relapsed or refractory ovarian cancer will receive treatment with pazopanib and liposomal doxorubicin (Doxil) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs. The Phase I portion will define the dose limiting toxicity (DLT) of pazopanib and liposomal doxorubicin when administered in combination. Once the maximum tolerated dose has been identified in the Phase I portion, the Phase II portion will evaluate efficacy and safety of this combination in the same patient population.

Interventions

DRUGPazopanib

All patients will begin treatment with a 7-day run in period of single-agent pazopanib. Patients will receive pazopanib orally days 1-28 of a 28 day cycle.
