Weekly Paclitaxel/Carboplatin With Neupogen in Gynaecological Cancers

Summary

Rationale: The administration of prophylactic G-CSF may reduce the toxicity of a weekly paclitaxel/carboplatin regimen in gynaecological cancers. Purpose: This multicenter phase II trial is studying the side effects of weekly paclitaxel/carboplatin when given with prophylactic G-SCF in patients with recurrent epithelial ovarian-, primary peritoneal or fallopian tube cancers, endometrial carcinoma or cervical carcinoma. Data obtained in this trial will be compared with historical data as published earlier. The trial will include 3 cohorts of 36 patients: * Subjects with ovarian, fallopian tube or peritoneal carcinoma * Subjects with endometrial cancer * Subjects with cervical carcinoma Treatment: Subjects will receive Paclitaxel 60 mg/m² followed by Carboplatin AUC 2.7 intravenously weekly during 18 weeks. Filgrastim (Neupogen) will be given to all patients on day 5 and possibly on day 6 of each course. Subjects will be evaluated by CT/MRI scan after 9 cycles of chemotherapy (week 10), after 18 cycles of chemotherapy, then every 6 months for the next 2 years and then if clinically indicated. Subjects who develop disease progression will discontinue therapy. Subjects who have no evidence of disease progression after completion of study therapy will be followed until disease progression, withdrawal of informed consent, or death.
