Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- Histologically confirmed International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage (67) III or IV ovarian epithelial cancer or primary peritoneal cancer at presentation. Patients must have achieved a clinical complete response (disappearance of all clinical and radiological evidence of tumor) after only one regimen (4-6 cycles) of platinum and taxane-based standard chemotherapy received after tumor debulkment.
- Normal serum CA125 (cancer-associated tumor marker) level within 7 days of first dose of sorafenib.
- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1.
- All scans used to document complete response must be done within 30 days prior to randomization.
- Patients must be able to swallow and retain oral medication.
Exclusion Criteria
- Patients with any residual cancer tissue after the completion of chemotherapy detectable by standard Computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
- Prior local radiotherapy, neoadjuvant chemotherapy or intraperitoneal chemotherapy.
- Histologic subtypes of ovarian cancer other than epithelial (i.e. sarcoma, lymphoma, germ cell).
- Major surgery, open biopsy, or significant traumatic injury within 30 days prior to randomization.
