Scientific titleRandomised phase III trial of paclitaxel plus carboplatin (TC) therapy versus irinotecan plus cisplatin (CPT-P) therapy as a first-line chemotherapy for clear cell carcinoma of the ovary
Study acronymCCC-1 (JGOG 3017/GCIG)
Study objectivesTo compare the efficacy and safety of standard arm of paclitaxel plus carboplatin and experimental arm of irinotecan plus cisplatin in clear cell carcinoma of the ovary.

Primary objective: progression-free survival
Secondary objectives: overall survival, response assessment, adverse events (frequency and grade)
Ethics approval(s)North West 5 Research Ethics Committee, 11/11/2008, ref: 08/H1010/100
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedTopic: National Cancer Research Network; Subtopic: Gynaecological Cancer; Disease: Ovary
InterventionExperimental arm:
Irinotecan 60 mg/m^2 intravenous (IV) on days 1, 8 and 15
Cisplatin 60 mg/m^2 IV on day 1
This combination is given every 4 weeks (28 days) for 6 cycles. Patients will be followed up for 2.25 years after completing or discontinuing the study treatment.

Standard arm:
Paclitaxel: 175 mg/m^2 IV on day 1
Carboplatin: AUC 6 IV on day 1
This combination given every 3 weeks (21 days) for 6 cycles. Patients will be followed up for 2.25 years after completing or discontinuing the study treatment.

Follow-up length: 27 months
Study entry: registration and one or more randomisations
Intervention typeDrug
PhasePhase III
Drug / device / biological / vaccine name(s)Paclitaxel, carboplatin, irinotecan, cisplatin
Primary outcome measure(s)

Progression-free survival: patients are followed up clinically every 2 months until disease progression

Key secondary outcome measure(s)

1. Adverse events: adverse event data will be collected during the treatment phase of the study
2. Overall survival: patients will be followed up at least until 36 months post-treatment
3. Response rate: to confirm best response to treatment, patients are scanned (computed tomography [CT]/magnetic resonance imaging [MRI]) pre-treatment

Completion date31/12/2010

5. Patients must be enrolled within 6 weeks of comprehensive surgery
6. Females aged over 18 years
Key exclusion criteria1. Patients with a current diagnosis of epithelial ovarian cancer of low malignant potential (borderline carcinomas)
2. Patients with a synchronous primary endometrial cancer, or a past history of primary endometrial cancer
3. Prior chemotherapy or radiation to treat the current disease
4. Patients who received intraperitoneal chemotherapy at time of operation
5. Prior diagnosis of malignancy (other than non-melanoma skin cancer or other malignancies curatively treated and greater than 5 years without evidence of recurrence)
6. Patients with diarrhoea greater than Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) grade 1
