ACTOv will compare standard 3-weekly carboplatin (AUC5), to carboplatin delivered according to an AT regimen. The AT regimen will modify carboplatin dose according to changes in the clinical-standard serum biomarker CA125 as a proxy measure of total tumour burden and an individual patient's response to the most recent chemotherapy treatment. AT could prolong sensitivity to carboplatin and extend tumour control, while simultaneously reducing chemotherapy dose and drug-induced toxicity. Carboplatin is a low cost and low toxicity drug that has an enduring and central role in ovarian cancer treatment.

RECRUITINGModified Progression Free Survival (mPFS)
Measured from the date of randomisation to the date of objective progression (investigator assessed using RECIST v1.1) but comparing CT scans to the baseline CT rather than the radiological nadir), clinical progression or death from any cause (in the absence of progression)
Time frame: From the date of randomisation until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 4 years.
Acceptability (1/2)
the number of eligible patients approached who accept randomisation and continue to receive treatment
Time frame: From the date of randomisation to the first dose of treatment (within 28 days from randomisation)received by patient. Measured as the number of patients approached who accept randomisation.
Acceptability (2/2)
the proportion of eligible patients approached who accept randomisation and continue to receive treatment
Time frame: From the date of randomisation to the first dose of treatment (within 28 days from randomisation)received by patient. Measured as the percent of patients approached who accept randomisation.
Deliverability (1/2)
the number of treatment cycles that are delivered as per protocol, described by trial arm
Time frame: Measured as the number of treatment cycles that are delivered as per protocol, described by trial arm (maximum of 6 cycles in control arm and 12 in experimental arm, approx.. 18 weeks and 36 weeks respectively). Treatment delays, reductions and omissions
Deliverability (2/2)
the proportion of treatment cycles that are delivered as per protocol, described by trial arm
Time frame: Measured as the number of treatment cycles that are delivered as per protocol, described by trial arm (maximum of 6 cycles in control arm and 12 in experimental arm, approx.. 18 weeks and 36 weeks respectively). Treatment delays, reductions and omissions
Compliance
total cumulative carboplatin dose will be calculated for each patient over time on treatment, and described by trial arm
Time frame: Total cumulative carboplatin dose will be calculated for each patient over time on treatment (max. of 6 cycles in control arm and 12 cycles in experimental arm, approximately 18 weeks and 36 weeks respectively
Adverse events (1/2)
adverse events will be categorised using the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 5. The number of patients who suffer a grade 3 or 4 toxicity at any time, and the maximum grade of toxicity for each adverse event term, will be described by trial arm
Time frame: Adverse events will be reported between informed consent and 30 calendar days post last IMP (i.e. max. of 6 cycles in control arm and 12 cycles in experimental arm, approximately 30 days after 18 weeks or 36 weeks respectively)
Adverse events (2/2)
adverse events will be categorised using the NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE), version 5. The percentage of patients who suffer a grade 3 or 4 toxicity at any time, and the maximum grade of toxicity for each adverse event term, will be described by trial arm
Time frame: Adverse events will be reported between informed consent and 30 calendar days post last IMP (i.e. max. of 6 cycles in control arm and 12 cycles in experimental arm, approximately 30 days after 18 weeks or 36 weeks respectively)
Quality of life (1/2) - EORTC questionnaire (assessing the quality of life of patients with ovarian cancer)
measured using European Organization for the Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC questionnaires): Quality of Life cancer 30 (QLQ-C30) (suitable for all cancer types) and Qualify of life questionnaire (QLQ-OV28 (ovarian cancer-specific)) in scale of 4 (1 is not very much and 4 very much)
Time frame: At baseline, during treatment and follow up until the first documented progression or date of death (estimate 6 or 12 months but can be up to 4 years)
Quality of life (2/2) - EQ-5D ((mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression, a single summary index and a visual analogue scale)
measured using European Quality of life questionnaire five dimensions (EQ-5D (descriptive profile of health state)) in scale of 5 (1 is no problem and 5 is extreme problem)
Time frame: At baseline, during treatment and follow up until the first documented progression or date of death (estimate 6 or 12 months but can be up to 4 years)
Fear of progression
measured using Fear of progression questionnaire (FOP-Q SF) in scale of 1 to 5 where 1 is never and 5 is very often
Time frame: At baseline, during treatment and follow up until the first documented progression or date of death (estimate 6 or 12 months but can be up to 4 years)
CA125
measured at baseline, 3-weekly during treatment, 6-weekly during surveillance and 12-weekly during follow-up
Time frame: Measured at baseline, 3 weekly during treatment, 6-weekly during surveillance and 12-weekly during follow-up, through study completion, an average of 1 year.
Further treatment (1/3)
of patients who progress will be described by trial arm including the time-to-next treatment (measured from randomisation)
Time frame: Additional treatment of patients who progress will be described by trial arm, this will include the time-to-next treatment (measured from randomisation).
Further treatment (2/3)
of patients who progress will be described by trial arm including the time treatment received (measured from randomisation)
Time frame: Additional treatment of patients who progress will be described by trial arm, this will include the time treatment received (measured from randomisation)
Further treatment (3/3)
of patients who progress will be described by trial arm including the time response to this treatment (measured from randomisation)
Time frame: Additional treatment of patients who progress will be described by trial arm, this will include the time response to this treatment (measured from randomisation)
Overall survival
measured from the date of randomisation to the date of death from any cause. Patients who are event-free will be censored at the date last seen
Time frame: Measured from the date of randomisation to the date of death from any cause, censored at the date last seen (estimate 2 years but can be up to 4 years)
