Patupilone Versus Doxorubicin in Patients With Ovarian, Primary Fallopian, or Peritoneal Cancer
This study is currently recruiting participants.
Verified by Novartis, December 2008
Sponsored by: Novartis
Information provided by: Novartis
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00262990
  Purpose

The objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of patupilone compared to pegylated liposomal doxorubicin. Additionally, this study will assess the ability of patupilone to extend the survival time and potential beneficial effects in women who have nonresponsive or recurrent ovarian, primary fallopian, or primary peritoneal cancer.
