carmustine and Ovarian Neoplasms

carmustine has been researched along with Ovarian Neoplasms in 21 studies

Carmustine: A cell-cycle phase nonspecific alkylating antineoplastic agent. It is used in the treatment of brain tumors and various other malignant neoplasms. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p462) This substance may reasonably be anticipated to be a carcinogen according to the Fourth Annual Report on Carcinogens (NTP 85-002, 1985). (From Merck Index, 11th ed)
carmustine : A member of the class of N-nitrosoureas that is 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)urea in which one of the nitrogens is substituted by a nitroso group.

Ovarian Neoplasms: Tumors or cancer of the OVARY. These neoplasms can be benign or malignant. They are classified according to the tissue of origin, such as the surface EPITHELIUM, the stromal endocrine cells, and the totipotent GERM CELLS.

Trial Overview

Trial Outcomes

Duration of Response

Defined as the time from date of first documented confirmed response to date of disease progression or relapse from complete response as defined by the International Working Group (IMW)-revised response criteria for malignant lymphoma (Cheson 2007). This criteria categorizes the response of a patient's tumor to treatment as Complete Response (CR): the disappearance of all disease evidence; Partial Response (PR): regression of measurable disease and no new sites; Stable Disease (SD): less than a PR but not progressive disease (PD); Relapsed Disease or PD: Any new lesion or increase by ≥ 50% of previously involved sites from nadir. Patients who are alive and free from disease progression will be censored at the date of last tumor assessment. Patients who begin further anticancer therapy prior to disease progression will be censored at the date of last tumor assessment prior to the start date of the anticancer therapy. (NCT01626352)
Timeframe: After cycles 3 and 6 of each 21-day cycle and every 3 months thereafter until disease progression or relapse from complete response for up to 38 months

Number of Patients With a Complete Response

Disease response assessments will be performed using the International Working Group (IMW)-revised response criteria for malignant lymphoma (Cheson 2007). Complete response requires a disappearance of all evidence of disease. (NCT01626352)
Timeframe: 18 months

Number of Patients With Treatment-Related Adverse Events (AEs) as a Measure of Safety

A treatment-related adverse event was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant which was considered to have a relationship with the study drug (suspected to be possibly or probably related to the study drug per the Investigator's assessment). Adverse events were evaluated using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v4.0. (NCT01626352)
Timeframe: after cycles 3 and 6 of each 21-day cycle, and up to 30 days after last dose, projected 24 weeks

Overall Response (OR)

Overall response is the number of patients with observed complete or partial response (CR or PR) as assessed using the International Working Group (IMW) revised response criteria for malignant lymphoma (Cheson 2007). Complete response requires disappearance of all evidence of disease. Partial response requires regression of measurable disease and no new sites. (NCT01626352)
Timeframe: after cycles 3 and 6 of each 21-day cycle, and every 3 months thereafter, projected 18 months

Overall Survival (OS)

Defined as the time from Day 1 of study drug administration to date of death from any cause. (NCT01626352)
Timeframe: every 3 cycles during treatment and every 3 months thereafter until progression or death from any cause, projected 18 months

Progression-free Survival

Defined as the time from first treatment until objective tumor progression, relapse from complete response, or death from any cause. Tumor response is defined by the International Working Group (IMW)-revised response criteria for malignant lymphoma (Cheson 2007). This criteria categorizes the response of a patient's tumor to treatment as Complete Response (CR): the disappearance of all disease evidence; Partial Response (PR): regression of measurable disease and no new sites; Stable Disease (SD): less than a PR but not progressive disease (PD); Relapsed Disease or PD: Any new lesion or increase by ≥ 50% of previously involved sites from nadir. Patients who are alive and free from disease progression will be censored at the date of last tumor assessment. (NCT01626352)
Timeframe: After cycles 3 and 6 of each 21-day cycle, and every 3 months thereafter until progression or relapse from complete response for up to 40 months

Time to Progression (TTP)

Defined as the time from date of first treatment to the date of first documented disease progression or relapse from complete response as defined by the International Working Group (IMW)-revised response criteria for malignant lymphoma (Cheson 2007). This criteria categorizes the response of a patient's tumor to treatment as Complete Response (CR): the disappearance of all disease evidence; Partial Response (PR): regression of measurable disease and no new sites; Stable Disease (SD): less than a PR but not progressive disease (PD); Relapsed Disease or PD: Any new lesion or increase by ≥ 50% of previously involved sites from nadir. (NCT01626352)
Timeframe: After cycles 3 and 6 of each 21-day cycle, and every 3 months thereafter until progression or relapse from complete response for up to 40 months
