Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Arm I (paclitaxel, carboplatin, metformin hydrochloride)Experimental Treatment6 Interventions
Patients receive paclitaxel IV over 3 hours on day 1, carboplatin IV over 30 minutes on day 1, and metformin hydrochloride PO BID (approximately every 10-12 hours apart) on days 1-21 (QD in course 1). Treatment repeats every 21 days for 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients then receive maintenance therapy comprising metformin hydrochloride PO BID on days 1-21. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
In both arms, patients who achieve SD or PR and still have measurable disease at the completion of course 6 may continue to receive paclitaxel IV and carboplatin IV (with metformin hydrochloride or placebo) for an additional 4 courses at the discretion of the treating investigator.
Group II: Arm II (paclitaxel, carboplatin, placebo)Active Control6 Interventions
Patients receive paclitaxel IV and carboplatin IV as in Arm I. Patients also receive placebo PO BID (approximately every 10-12 hours apart) on days 1-21 (QD in course 1). Treatment repeats every 21 days for 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients then receive maintenance therapy comprising placebo PO BID on days 1-21. Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
In both arms, patients who achieve SD or PR and still have measurable disease at the completion of course 6 may continue to receive paclitaxel IV and carboplatin IV (with metformin hydrochloride or placebo) for an additional 4 courses at the discretion of the treating investigator.
