8. Any condition that is unstable or could jeopardize the safety of the patient and their compliance in the study
9. Participation in another clinical study with experimental therapy within the 30 days before start of and during treatment. Participation in a non-interventional study should be discussed with sponsor and NC beforehand.

| E.5 End points |
| E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
| Primary Endpoint is the observation of change in QoL. This is measured for every patient as the change from baseline (C1 D1) to end of treatment (EOT) visit (3-4 weeks after C6 D1 or, in case of progression/relapse, 3-4 weeks after day 1 of last treatment Cycle). The primary QoL measure is the mean score of the Trial Outcome Index (TOI). The TOI is based on selected items from the EORTC QLQ-C30 version 3.0 and QLQ-OV28 (TOI-QLQ-OV) and includes the C-30 functional scales physical and role functioning, the symptom scales constipation, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, in addition to the first 24 items of the EORTC Ovar 28 (i.e. all items of the EORTC Ovar 28, excluding sexual functioning). The primary endpoint will be analysed by general linear models for paired samples. |

Definition of the end of the trial and justification where it is not the last
visit of the last subject undergoing the trial
|
Regular end of study treatment is 3-4 weeks after D1C6 or earlier after progression. EOT means end of the active part of the trial. Centers perform follow-up starting with EOT (after regular termination or progression) after 6 and 12 months after baseline.
The extended follow-up phase starts for all patients after the mandatory 1 y follow-up. This phase ends when the study will be terminated, which is defined as the time point when the last patient has completed the mandatory 1 year follow-up. |
