3 Background Induction chemotherapy with a platinum agent and paclitaxel (T) is a standard of care for Stage IC-IV ovarian cancer (OC). Combination gemcitabine and carboplatin (GC) is approved for use in recurrent platinum-sensitive OC. Phase II trials have previously shown the combination of G plus cisplatin to be active as first-line therapy for OC. 1-3 Evidence suggests (SWOG 9701/GOG 178) that 12 ‑ month T consolidation (Tcon) improves progression-free survival (PFS). 4 The current study was designed to compare GC to standard first-line therapy, followed by Tcon. 1 Belpomme D, et al.

4 Background The study was initiated in October 2002 as a multi- center, open-label, dual-arm, randomized, Phase III, superiority trial. In June 2004, Tcon was changed from mandatory to elective after 362 patients had been enrolled. Planned enrollment was 1208 patients. In August 2006, the protocol was modified to allow PFS as primary endpoint. Subsequently, enrollment was stopped at 919 patients, an adequate sample size for estimation of PFS. The trial was stopped in October 2009 after an ad hoc futility analysis showed low probability of a positive PFS result.

5 Objectives Primary Objective To compare PFS in the experimental arm (GC) to the control arm, paclitaxel and carboplatin (TC) Secondary Objectives To compare efficacy of the two regimens with respect to response rate and OS To compare adverse events related to each regimen

7 Methods IRB approval was required at all sites. Surgery had to be ≤12 weeks prior to enrollment and performance status (PS) was 0, 1, or 2. A pathologic diagnosis of primary peritoneal, epithelial ovarian, or fallopian tube carcinoma was required, Stage IC, II, III, or IV. No prior gemcitabine (G), prior radiation, or prior chemotherapy for any abdominal or pelvic tumor. Abbreviations: IRB, Institutional Review Board.

8 Best tumor response was assessed in patients with measurable disease using RECIST criteria. CA-125 assessments in patients with non-measurable disease followed GCIG criteria. Adverse events were assessed using the NCI Common Toxicity Criteria (v 2.0). The 2-sided Fisher’s exact test was used to determine P-values for response and toxicity. Survival was assessed using Kaplan-Meier method and log rank test for P-values.

20 Summary In 2006 the protocol was modified to allow PFS as primary endpoint and enrollment was stopped at 919 patients. Demographics were well balanced between arms. Toxicity profiles were consistent with prior clinical experience. Response results were not statistically different comparing the two induction or crossover arms.

21 Summary For PFS, the primary endpoint, there was no difference for induction, consolidation, and crossover groups. Adjusting for significant covariates, there was no significant difference in OS between the two arms. Subset analysis suggested that OS may be improved for patients receiving Tcon after achieving CR. The OS analysis was severely limited by: early study closure, the high rate of censored data, unrecoverable data, and non-randomization for the consolidation treatment.

22 Conclusions GC did not offer an advantage over standard of care TC for first-line chemotherapy in OC. Paclitaxel consolidation may have improved OS, but analysis was limited by study design and high censorship. The utility of paclitaxel consolidation cannot be answered by this trial.
