Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of radiolabeled monoclonal antibody, paclitaxel, and interferon alfa in treating patients who have ovarian cancer. Radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Interferon may interfere with the growth of cancer cells. Combining monoclonal antibody, chemotherapy, and interferon alfa may kill more tumor cells.

- description
- Patients receive interferon alfa subcutaneously on days 1, 3, 5, and 7; paclitaxel intraperitoneally (IP) on day 4 or topotecan IP on day 6; and 177Lu-CC49 IP on day 6. Treatment continues every 6 weeks for 2 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Cohorts of 3-5 patients receive escalating doses of paclitaxel and decreasing doses of 177Lu-CC49 until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose preceding that at which 3 of 5 patients experience dose limiting toxicity. Once the MTD of paclitaxel is determined, the dose of 177Lu-CC49 is escalated. Once the MTD of 177Lu-CC49 is determined, 90Y-CC49 is substituted. The MTD of 90Y-CC49 is then determined when administered with paclitaxel. Topotecan is then substituted for paclitaxel (administered with the MTD of 177Lu-CC49 and interferon alfa only) and escalated until the MTD is determined.
