Paclitaxel and Carboplatin or Ifosfamide in Treating Patients With Newly Diagnosed, Persistent or Recurrent Uterine, Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, or Peritoneal Cavity Cancer

A Randomized Phase III Trial of Paclitaxel Plus Carboplatin Versus Ifosfamide Plus Paclitaxel in Chemotherapy-Naive Patients With Newly Diagnosed Stage I-IV, Persistent or Recurrent Carcinosarcoma (Mixed Mesodermal Tumors) of the Uterus, Fallopian Tube, Peritoneum or Ovary

Summary

This randomized phase III trial studies paclitaxel and carboplatin see how well they work compared with paclitaxel and ifosfamide in treating patients with fallopian tube, or peritoneal cavity cancer that is newly diagnosed, persistent, or has come back (recurrent). Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, carboplatin, and ifosfamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether paclitaxel is more effective when given with carboplatin or ifosfamide in treating patients with uterine, ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cavity cancer.

Detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine if treatment with combination paclitaxel and carboplatin (TC) chemotherapy does not result in an inferior death rate when compared to ifosfamide, mesna, and paclitaxel chemotherapy. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine if treatment with combination paclitaxel and carboplatin (TC) chemotherapy does not result in an inferior progression-free survival when compared to ifosfamide, mesna, and paclitaxel chemotherapy. II. To determine if acute toxicity, specifically physician-assessed neurotoxicity and infection, associated with combination paclitaxel and carboplatin chemotherapy is reduced compared to that of ifosfamide, mesna, and paclitaxel chemotherapy. III. To determine if treatment with combination paclitaxel and carboplatin chemotherapy is associated with superior patient-reported quality of life and neurotoxicity scores compared to that of ifosfamide, mesna, and paclitaxel chemotherapy. TERTIARY OBJECTIVES: I. To bank formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) extracted from whole blood for future research. OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms. ARM I: Patients receive paclitaxel intravenously (IV) over 3 hours followed by carboplatin IV over 30-60 minutes on day 1. ARM II: Patients receive ifosfamide IV over 1 hour on days 1-3 followed by paclitaxel as in Arm I. In both arms, treatment repeats every 21 days for 6-10 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for 2 years, every 6 months for 3 years, and then annually thereafter.
