Brief summary

The purpose of this trial is to investigate if maintenance DCVAC/OvCa after second-line chemotherapy of carboplatin/gemcitabine or carboplatin/paclitaxel improves efficacy outcomes in women with FIGO stage III and IV epithelial ovarian carcinoma who experienced relapse more than 6 months after complete remission of first line platinum-based chemotherapy (platinum sensitive ovarian cancer)

Detailed description

All patients who fulfill all eligibility criteria will undergo a leukapheresis procedure. All eligible/enrolled patients will receive standard-of-care therapy with carboplatin/gemcitabine or carboplatin/paclitaxel starting 2 to 7 days after leukapheresis. After 6 cycles of chemotherapy, patients will start maintenance treatment with DCVAC/OvCa. Treatment will continue irrespective of tumor progression until completion, refusal, intolerance of treatment or death.

Interventions

BIOLOGICALDCVAC/OvCa

Inclusion criteria

* Patients with histologically confirmed FIGO stage III or IV epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal or fallopian tube carcinoma (serous,endometrioid, or mucinous) who had complete remission after first-line platinum-based chemotherapy * Radiologically confirmed relapse after \>6 months of remission ( platinum-sensitive cancer) * Laboratory parameters per protocol

Exclusion criteria

* FIGO I, II epithelial ovarian cancer * FIGO III, IV clear cells epithelial ovarian cancer * Non-epithelial ovarian cancer * Borderline tumors ( tumors of low malignant potential) * Prior or current systemic anti-cancer therapy for ovarian cancer (chemotherapy, monoclonal antibody therapy, tyrosine kinase inhibitory therapy, vascular endothelial growth factor or hormonal therapy) except first-line Pt based chemotherapy ( with or without bevacizumab) * fertile women of child-bearing potential not willing to use a highly effective method of contraception or a combination of methods * Pregnant of lactating women * Pre-defined co-morbidities * Known hypersensitivity to any constituent of DCVAC/OVCa or the selected chemotherapy compounds

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Progression Free Survival by modifications to the RECIST 1.1Assessed from enrollment up to 104 weeksPFS as defined as the time from the first dose of Standard-of-Care (SoC) therapy administerd until tumor progression or death from any cause

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Biological progression-free intervalCA-125 assessed every 6 weeks up to 104 weeksDefined by increasing CA-125 levels per Gynecologic Cancer Intergroup (GCIG) criteria
Objective Response rateResponse is assessed every 8 weeks up to 104 weeksCR and PR measured by the modifed RECIST 1.1 criteria
Immunologic ResponseBlood samples collected 5 times throughout the study from enrolment up to 104 weeksDetection of entire anti-tumor immune response int he serum
Overall survivalAssessed from enrolment through study completion approximately 5 yearsDefined as the time from first dose of SoC therapy administered until death due to any cause assessed until study completion
CA-125 responseCA-125 assessed every 6 weeks up to 104 weeksDefined by GCIG criteria
Time to either tumor or biologic ResponseFrom first dose of chemotherapy until either objective or serologic progression for up to 104 weeks.Response according to RECIST or CA-125 measurements as increased to \>2 times ULN
Incidence of Treatment-emergent adverse events [safety and tolerability]Screening through 30 days after completion of treatmentSafety profile as determined by the nature, incidence, duration, severity and outcome of adverse events (AEs) including serious AEs (SAEs) as assessed by CTCAE v. 4.0
