Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Progression-free Survival
Baseline to 48 weeks after the last visit or dose of Cvac (up to 104 weeks)

Progression-free survival was defined as the time from randomization to the date of documented disease progression or death from any cause, whichever occurred earlier. Disease progression occurred when a patient met either the Gynecologic Cancer Intergroup (GCIG) cancer-antigen (CA)-125 definition or the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) radiological definition of progressive disease. The GCIG CA-125 definition of disease progression was defined as a CA-125 level ≥ 2 × the upper limit of normal documented on 2 occasions at least 1 week apart. The radiological RECIST criteria of disease progression was defined as the appearance of new lesions or an overall increase ≥ 20% or at least 5 mm in existing tumors.

Non-randomized CvacEXPERIMENTALParticipants received 6-8 intradermal injections of Cvac at 4 sites along both upper arms and both thighs. The 6-8 injections contained \~ 60 × 10\^6 dendritic cells. Following evaluation after the first dose, participants received additional injections as described for the randomized Cvac group below.
Randomized CvacEXPERIMENTALParticipants received 6-8 intradermal injections of Cvac at 4 sites along both upper arms and both thighs every 4 weeks for 24 weeks (7 doses at Weeks 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, and 32), and then every 8 weeks for 24 weeks (3 doses at Weeks 40, 48, and 56). The 6-8 injections contained \~ 60 × 10\^6 dendritic cells.
Observational standard of careNO_INTERVENTIONParticipants in this group did not receive any treatment during the study.

Interventions

NameTypeDescription
CvacBIOLOGICALCvac consists of autologous dendritic cells (DCs) incubated with the antigen, mannosylated fusion protein (M-FP), to target the DCs to the specific mucin 1 antigen.

Frequently asked questions about Cvac

What is Cvac used for in epithelial ovarian cancer?

Cvac is an investigational monoclonal antibody being studied for epithelial ovarian cancer. It was evaluated in a Phase 2 clinical trial for patients in remission. The trial enrolled 63 female participants aged 18 years and older in the United States and Australia. Cvac is not approved and remains in clinical development.

Who makes Cvac?

Cvac is being developed by Immutep Limited, a biopharmaceutical company listed on the stock exchange under the ticker IMMP. The company is conducting clinical research on Cvac for the treatment of epithelial ovarian cancer.

What phase is Cvac in?

Cvac is in Phase 2 clinical development. It has completed one Phase 2 trial, which was a randomized, open-label study with no treatment control. The trial has finished, and no active trials are currently listed for Cvac.

What clinical trials is Cvac in?

Cvac has one completed clinical trial, identified as NCT01068509, titled "Ovarian Cancer Vaccine for Patients in Remission." This Phase 2 study enrolled 63 participants with epithelial ovarian cancer and was conducted in the United States and Australia. The trial was randomized and biomarker-selected.

Is Cvac the same as an ovarian cancer vaccine?

Cvac is an investigational monoclonal antibody being studied for epithelial ovarian cancer. The completed clinical trial for Cvac is titled "Ovarian Cancer Vaccine for Patients in Remission," but Cvac itself is described as a monoclonal antibody, not a vaccine.
