Brief Summary:

This study consists of three parts, whereas Part 1 and Part 2 are performed in Germany only, and Part 3 is a multinational trial.

All patients with suspicion of advanced ovarian cancer are detected in the participating study centers in a pre-screening. The study centers will register all patients with suspected ovarian cancer in a screening log. After the patients have given informed consent, they can be enrolled in different parts of the study.

TRUST-Trial: This part compares two strategies in the therapy of advanced ovarian cancer. En detail, this part of the trial will evaluate if one of two strategies of timing surgery within the therapeutic procedures may show any significant advances in terms of overall survival over the other.


Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Ovarian Cancer Procedure: PDS (Primary Debulkdung Surgery) Procedure: 6 cycles of standard chemotherapy Procedure: Timing of surgery after 3 cycles of standard NACT, IDS Procedure: IDS Drug: 3 cycles of standard chemotherapy Not Applicable

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. overall survival (OS) [ Time Frame: Patients will be followed up for a minimum of 5 years after registration/randomisation or until death ]

    To compare the overall survival (OS) after primary debulking surgery (PDS) versus interval debulking surgery (IDS) following neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) in patients with FIGO (2014) stage IIIB-IVB ovarian, tubal, and peritoneal carcinoma.

    The primary endpoint overall survival time is calculated from the date of randomization until the date of death from any cause or date of last contact (censored observation).



Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Progression-free survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: Patients will be followed up for a minimum of 5 years after registration/randomisation or until death ]
    Progression-free survival time is calculated from the date of randomization until the date of first progressive disease or death, whichever occurs first or date of last contact (censored observation). Progressive disease is defined as clinical or imaging-detected tumor progression or death in cases without prior documented tumor progression.

  2. Progression-free survival 2 (PFS2) [ Time Frame: Patients will be followed up for a minimum of 5 years after registration/randomisation or until death ]
    PFS2 time is calculated from the date of randomization until the date of second progressive disease or death, whichever occurs first or date of last contact (censored observation).

  3. Time to first subsequent anticancer therapy or death (TFST) [ Time Frame: Patients will be followed up for a minimum of 5 years after registration/randomisation or until death ]
    Time to first subsequent anticancer therapy is calculated from the date of randomization until the starting date of the first subsequent anticancer therapy or death, whichever occurs first or date of last contact (censored observation). Maintenance treatments following a cytostatic treatment are not considered separate treatment lines.

  4. Time to second subsequent anticancer therapy or death (TSST) [ Time Frame: Patients will be followed up for a minimum of 5 years after registration/randomisation or until death ]
    Time to second subsequent anticancer therapy is calculated from the date of randomization until the starting date of the second subsequent anticancer therapy or death, whichever occurs first or date of last contact (censored observation). Maintenance treatments following a cytostatic treatment are not considered separate treatment lines.

  5. Quality of life (QoL) [ Time Frame: Patients will be followed up for a minimum of 5 years after registration/randomisation or until death ]
    Quality of life (QoL) as measured by EORTC QLQ-C30 (Version 3), EORTC QLQ-OV28, EQ-5D-3L

  6. Documentation of surgical complications [ Time Frame: Patients will be followed up for 1 year after surgery or until death ]
    Assessment of safety: documentation of surgical complications 28 days after surgery and 1 year after surgery.

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • suspected or histologically confirmed, newly diagnosed invasive epithelial ovarian cancer FIGO stage IIIB-IV (IV only if resectable metastasis)
  • Females aged ≥ 18 years
  • Patients who have given their written informed consent
  • Good performance status (ECOG 0/1)
  • Good ASA score (1/2)
  • Preoperative CA 125/CEA ratio ≥ 25 (if CA-125 is elevated)*
  • If <25 and/or biopsy with non-serous, non-endometroid histology, esophago-gastro-duodenoscopy (EGD) and colonoscopy mandatory to exclude gastrointestinal primary cancer
  • Assessment of an experienced surgeon, that based on all available information, the patient can undergo the procedure and the tumor can potentially be completely resected
  • Adequate bone marrow function: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 x 109/L. This ANC cannot have been induced or supported by granulocyte colony stimulating factors.
  • Platelet count ≥ 100 x 109/L.
  • Renal function: Serum-Creatinine ≤ 1.5 x institutional upper limit normal (ULN).
  • Hepatic function:

  • Neurologic function: Neuropathy (sensory and motor) less than or equal to CTCAE Grade 1.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Non epithelial ovarian malignancies and borderline tumors
  • Secondary invasive neoplasms in the last 5 years (except synchronal endometrial carcinoma FIGO IA G1/2, non melanoma skin cancer, breast cancer T1 N0 M0 G1/2) or with any signs of relapse or activity.
  • Recurrent ovarian cancer
  • Prior chemotherapy for ovarian cancer or abdominal/pelvic radiotherapy
  • Unresectable parenchymal lung metastasis, liver metastasis or bulky lymph-nodes in the mediastinum in CT chest and abdomen/pelvis
  • Clinical relevant dysfunctions of blood clotting (including drug induced)
  • Any significant medical reasons, age or performance status that will not allow to perform the study procedures (estimation of investigator)
  • Pregnancy
  • Dementia or significantly altered mental status that would prohibit the understanding and giving of informed consent
  • Any reasons interfering with regular follow-up
