Study Summary

This trial looks at the side effects of a chemotherapy combination including paclitaxel and bevacizumab, with or without the addition of emactuzumab. Emactuzumab is an antibody that works to block tumor growth by targeting certain cells. The goal is to see if the addition of emactuzumab to paclitaxel and bevacizumab improves treatment of ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.

Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Arm II (paclitaxel, bevacizumab, emactuzumab)Experimental Treatment5 Interventions
Patients receive paclitaxel and bevacizumab as in Arm I. Patients also receive emactuzumab IV over 30 minutes on days 1 and 15. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Group II: Arm I (paclitaxel, bevacizumab)Active Control3 Interventions
Patients receive paclitaxel IV over 60 minutes on days 1, 8, 15, and 22 and bevacizumab IV over 90 minutes on days 1 and 15. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
