  1. Evaluation Of Topotecan For Ovarian Cancer • First-relapse therapy • Front-line in combination • 2-drug regimens • 3-drug regimens

  2. First-Relapse TherapySummary Of Topotecan Efficacy • Only published phase III in relapsedovarian cancer • Only drug proven comparable to paclitaxel • Set the standard for Independent Radiologic Review in relapsed trials • Platinum-sensitive RR ~ 30% to 33% • Response should be evaluated after 4 to 6 cyclesof therapy • Significant % of patients with stabilization of disease • may be clinically beneficial

  4. Topotecan For First-Relapse TherapyGOG 146-C Study Design • Platinum-sensitive patients (N = 46) • median PFI = 9.6 mo • Topotecan 1.5 mg/m2 over 30 min QD x 5, q21d • 1 or 2 prior regimens • Patients received a median of 6 cycles PFI = progression-free interval. McGuire et al. J Clin Oncol. 2000;18:1062.

  8. Second-Line Therapy“Artificial” Extension of PFI • 30 patients with platinum “resistant” disease  12 refractory 18 resistant • Treated with paclitaxel or docetaxel monotherapy then carboplatin post-taxane progression No CR 7 PR 6 Stable • Response rate of 23%; would predict < 12% based upon Blackledge & Markman data • Can this same concept convert platinum sensitive to very platinum sensitive disease Kavanagh et al. J Clin Oncol 13;1584, 1995.

  13. Lower-Dose Topotecan Study Design • Patient population • measurable and assessable disease • 65% refractory, 35% resistant • median performance status = 0 • median number of prior chemotherapies = 3 • Topotecan 1 mg/m2/d x5d q3wk • Chi square analysis • vs Bookman et al. J Clin Oncol. 1998;16:3345. Rodriguez et al. SGO Proc. 2000:A122.

  14. Lower-Dose Topotecan Results • 23 Assessable patients • 6/23 (26%) responded to lower-dose topotecan • 4/6 (67%) of responders had measurable disease • 11/23 (47.8%) experienced grade IV neutropenia • Bookman reported 82% grade IV neutropenia (P=.0016) • grade III neutropenia also statistically significant • 2/23 (8.6%) experienced grade IV leukopenia • Bookman reported 30.1% grade IV leukopenia (P=.03) Rodriguez et al. SGO Proc. 2000:A122.

  15. Ongoing Clinical StudiesWith TopotecanDaily x 3 Regimens • Phase II dose is 2.0 mg/m2 x 3 • West coast collaboration (Brown, Karlan, Peters) • 9 patients enrolled (sensitive and resistant patients) • Washington University (Mutch, Herzog) • 6 patients enrolled (sensitive patients only) • GOG 146-K • open to accrual (sensitive patients only)

  16. Ongoing Clinical StudiesWith TopotecanWeekly Regimens • Hoskins et al reported 1.75 mg/m2/wk ineffective vs QD x 5 regimen • Phase I/II data suggest efficacy of 4 to5 mg/m2/wk in ovarian and endometrial cancers • fatigue was dose limiting • Phase II studies to confirm efficacy ongoing • starting at 4 mg/m2

  17. Ongoing Clinical StudiesWith TopotecanCIV Topotecan In Ovarian Cancer • 0.4 mg/m2/day CIV x 21d q28d • 24 patients with prior platinum therapy • 11 refractory or resistant (<6 mo) • 13 sensitive (>6 mo) • Overall response rate = 38% Hochster et al. J Clin Oncol. 1999;17:2553.
