Study summary

The study is evaluated the effacy and safety of apatinib combined with chemotherapy in the advanced ovarian cancer

Read the detailed description

Ovarian cancer and fallopian tube cancer are common gynecological malignancies in our country. Ovarian cancer ranks the second in the incidence of gynecologic malignancies. The mortality rate is the highest. The following three major characteristics exist: First, 70% of the patients are advanced patients; 70% of the patients Easy to relapse after treatment; Third, 5-year survival rate of about 30%, a serious threat to women's health. Our hospital ovarian cancer, tubal cancer patients because of regional constraints, the economy is poor, the more the past, the use of simple chemotherapy, relapse rate and mortality were higher.

In the latest National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines, bevacizumab plus CP is recommended for patients with stage II, III, and IV ovarian cancer and fallopian tube cancer, and clinical trials of new drugs are recommended for recurrent / metastatic ovarian cancer. Apatinib mesylate is a small molecule VEGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor authored by Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., whose chemical name is N- [4- (Cyanocyclopentyl) phenylmethane sulfonate ] [2 - [(4-picolyl) amino] (3-pyridyl)] carboxamide of the formula C25H27N5O3S with a molecular weight of 493.58 (mesylate salt).Apatinib can effectively inhibit VEGFR-2 at a very low concentration, while higher concentrations can inhibit the action of apatinib, such as platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR), c-Kit and c- The site is the intracellular ATP binding site of the protein tyrosine receptor. Pharmacodynamic studies show that apatinib can inhibit the VEGFR-2 tyrosine kinase activity, blocking VEGF signaling after binding, resulting in inhibition of tumor angiogenesis. Preclinical studies have shown that apatinib has a strong inhibitory effect on the growth of many human nude mice xenografts such as sarcoma, colorectal cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, gastric cancer and liver cancer and is a broad-spectrum anti-tumor drug.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • diagnosed as epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, stage II-IV period, the expected survival of> 6 months;
  • \<2;
  • Liver and kidney function is normal;
  • No uncontrollable high blood pressure, bleeding, perforation, obstruction.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Serious cardiopulmonary insufficiency, can not tolerate chemotherapy;
  • Pregnant or lactating women;
  • 3 years have occurred in other tumors (cervical cancer in situ, has cured basal cell carcinoma, except for bladder epithelial tumors);
  • Allergic to apatinib or its accessories.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Histologically or cytologically confirmed

The diagnosis was confirmed by looking at a sample under a microscope: tissue from a biopsy or surgery (histology), or cells from a fluid or needle sample (cytology).

Your pathology report is the document that shows this.

ECOG performance status

A scale of how much an illness limits everyday activity. For people being assessed to join a study, scores run from 0 (fully active) to 4; lower is more active.

0
Fully active, no restrictions.
1
Limited in strenuous activity, but walking and able to do light work, such as housework or office work.
2
Walking and able to look after yourself, but unable to work; up and about more than half of waking hours.
3
Able to look after yourself only in part; in bed or a chair more than half of waking hours.
4
Unable to look after yourself at all; in bed or a chair all day.

Studies most often ask for 0–1 or 0–2. Your doctor gives the score; the WHO scale uses the same steps. The full scale also has 5, which records death.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. PFS(Progress free survival)

    he length of time during and after the treatment of a disease, such as cancer, that a patient lives with the disease but it does not get worse.

    Time frame: 24 month

  2. carcinoma antigen 125 (CA125)

    Cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) is a protein found on the surface of many ovarian cancer cells. It also can be found in other cancers and in small amounts in normal tissue. A CA-125 test measures the amount of this protein in the blood.

    Time frame: 24month

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Aug 2017 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Dec 2018, 16 months after the start.

Of 228 non-industry phase 2 interventional studies under Ovarian Neoplasms, half reached primary completion within 54 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 40 and three quarters within 80. This study's planned 16 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 344 studies reached it within 47 months; a quarter within 33 and three quarters within 72.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jan 16, 2018, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
