This multicenter, open-label, randomized phase II/III trial will compare primary debulking surgery (PDS) with neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking surgery (NACT-IDS) in patients with newly diagnosed stage IIIC or IV epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer who are recommended for PDS by the MERITS clinical decision tool and are clinically eligible for either treatment strategy.
The optimal timing of cytoreductive surgery in advanced epithelial ovarian cancer remains uncertain. Earlier randomized trials did not clearly identify which patients benefit from PDS rather than NACT-IDS. Using data from 489 participants in the SUNNY trial, the Multi-Endpoint RMST Ensemble for Individualized Treatment Selection (MERITS) model was developed and internally evaluated in the previous SUNNY-AI trial (NCT06839157). The model uses seven pretreatment clinical variable groups: BRCA status, TNM stage, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status, histologic type, tumor burden, presence of omental metastasis, and age (≤65 vs >65 years). In internal cross-validation, MERITS recommended PDS for 78.1% of patients and achieved a concordance index of 0.63. The current study will prospectively evaluate the clinical utility of feature-based selection and determine whether PDS improves overall survival in the selected population.
All participants must be recommended for PDS by MERITS and judged clinically suitable for both PDS and NACT-IDS. A 20-participant randomized pioneer study will first assess feasibility and early safety. Formal phase II enrollment may begin if major protocol deviations are observed in no more than 4 of 20 participants, 30-day grade ≥3 postoperative complications in no more than 6, 30-day postoperative deaths in no more than 1, at least 18 undergo the planned debulking procedure, and all operated participants have ascertainable 30-day safety outcomes.
The randomized phase II will enroll 100 participants. Phase II will be assessed after the 100th participant has completed 18 months of follow-up and surgical safety data have been verified. The phase II decision is exploratory and does not establish confirmatory noninferiority. The phase III will enroll 414 participants. The final phase III analysis will be performed after at least 247 deaths and at least 60 months of follow-up for the last phase III participant. Overall survival will be compared using a stratified log-rank test, with a stratified Cox model estimating the hazard ratio for PDS versus NACT-IDS and its two-sided 95% confidence interval. Stratification factors are TNM stage, cPCI tumor burden, and BRCA status. PDS will be considered superior only if the estimated hazard ratio is \<1 and the two-sided stratified log-rank P value is \<0.05.

Exclusion Criteria:
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.
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.
A biopsy takes a small piece of tissue to examine. “Archival tissue” is a sample already taken, for example at diagnosis, and kept by the hospital.
Whether a stored sample will do depends on when it was taken, how much there is and what the study needs. Ask whether the study accepts your stored sample or needs a new biopsy.
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.
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.
The number of neutrophils, white blood cells that help fight infection, in a given amount of blood. Too few raises the risk of infection.
It is a count, not a percentage of the white cells. Limits are written in units that mean the same: ≥ 1.5 × 10⁹/L is ≥ 1,500 per mm³ (µL). Each lab has its own reference range.
Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.
The protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen. A low level is anaemia, which can cause tiredness and breathlessness. Measured in g/dL or g/L (9 g/dL is 90 g/L).
The top of the normal range for a blood test, as set by the laboratory that runs it. Each lab prints its own range next to your result.
“≤ 2.5 × ULN” means the result can be up to two and a half times that top value.
How quickly the kidneys clear creatinine, a waste product, from the blood. A study may estimate it from a blood test with age, weight and sex (often by the Cockcroft–Gault formula), or measure it using blood and urine collected over a set time. Given in mL/min; higher is better.
A yellow substance made when red blood cells are broken down, which the liver clears. A high level can mean a problem with the liver or the bile ducts.
Criteria often allow more for people with Gilbert’s syndrome, a harmless inherited condition that raises bilirubin.
Two enzymes measured in a routine blood test of the liver. Higher levels can mean the liver is under strain or damaged. SGPT and SGOT are older names for ALT and AST.
Criteria usually give a limit as a multiple of the upper limit of normal (ULN), often higher when cancer has spread to the liver.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.
Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.
Neoadjuvant treatment is given before the main treatment (usually surgery), often to shrink a tumour. Adjuvant treatment is given after it, to lower the chance of the cancer coming back.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: long-term lung disease that makes it hard to breathe out, including emphysema and chronic bronchitis.
Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.
The share of blood the heart’s main pumping chamber (the left ventricle) pushes out with each beat, measured by an echocardiogram (heart ultrasound) or a MUGA scan. About 50–70% is normal.
