Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of irofulven in treating patients who have recurrent or persistent ovarian epithelial cancer or primary peritoneal cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

Primary outcomes (2)
- measure
- Tumor Response
- timeFrame
- From entry into study until documented progression or death, assessed up to 5 years.
- description
- Per Gynecologic Oncology Group(GOG) Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors(RECIST) Criteria: Complete Response is disappearance of all target and non-target lesions; Partial Response is at least a 30% decrease in the sum of longest dimensions (LD) of all target measurable dimensions; Increasing Disease is at least a 20% increase in the sum of LD of target lesions taking as reference the smallest sum LD or the appearance of new lesions within 8 weeks of study entry. Response is to be evaluated every 42 days for the first 6 months and every 6 months thereafter while the patient is receiving study treatment, then every 3 months for 2 years and every 6 months for the next 3 years until documented progression or death.
