Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of ixabepilone in treating patients who have recurrent or persistent ovarian epithelial or primary peritoneal cancer that has not responded to previous chemotherapy. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

- EXPERIMENTAL
- label
- Treatment (ixabepilone)
- description
- Patients receive ixabepilone IV over 1 hour. Treatment repeats every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients with a complete response (CR) receive 2 additional courses after achieving CR.

- Drug: ixabepilone
Primary outcomes (2)
- measure
- Tumor Response
- timeFrame
- Every other cycle until the completion of study treatment with an average of study treatment time as of 3 months.
- description
- Percentage of participants with complete and partial tumor response as assessed by the Gynecologic Oncology Group Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (GOG RECIST) with one-sided 90% Confidence Interval. Complete Response (CR), disappearance of all target and non-target lesions without evidence of new lesion; Partial Response (PR), \>=30% decrease in the sum of the longest dimensions (LD) of all target measurable lesions taking as reference the baseline sum of LD with no unequivocal progression of non-target lesions and no evidence of new lesion, or a 50% decrease in the LD in the case where the ONLY target lesion is a solitary pelvic mass measured by physical exam with no unequivocal progression of non-target lesions and no evidence of new lesion. Complete or partial response requires confirmation at greater than or equal to 4 weeks from initial documentation.
