Filter by:Around 15-25% of ovarian cancer (OC) patients carry germ-line mutation in BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes. Recent evidences showed that OC women with germline BRCA1/2 mutations (gBRCAmut) have an improved survival and higher platinum-sensitivity compared to BRCA1/2 naive (BRCAwt). Interestingly, disease appearance in BRCAmut women is more diffuse than in BRCAwt cases, with significantly higher peritoneal tumour load. Nonetheless, BRCAmut women additionally show a higher benefit of platinum-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) plus interval debulking surgery compared with BRCAwt women in terms of clinical and pathological responses, suggesting that BRCA mutational status might be used as a molecular tool to personalize treatment in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) patients. OLAPARIB in BRCA mutation carriers Olaparib is a potent oral poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor that causes synthetic lethality in BRCA1/2-deficient tumour cells. In patients with platinum-sensitive relapsed serous ovarian cancer, olaparib maintenance treatment significantly improved the duration of progression-free survival compared with placebo (hazard ratio [HR] 0.35 [95% CI (confidence interval) 0.25-0.49]; p<0.0001), with the greatest clinical benefit in patients with BRCA mutations (HR 0.18 [95% CI 0.10-0.31]; p<0.0001). Preclinical data suggest that olaparib might also potentiate the efficacy of DNA-damaging chemotherapies, including platinum-containing drugs such as carboplatin. In a recent phase Ib/II study, olaparib plus weekly carboplatin and paclitaxel in relapsed ovarian cancer patients was shown to be safe, well tolerated and effective, especially in germline BRCA mutated (gBRCAmut) patients. Possibly, the addition of a PARP inhibitor (olaparib) to NACT in HGSOC patient with germline or somatic BRCA1/2 mutation is able to increase the pathological complete response rate to conventional chemotherapy. Combination of intermittent olaparib with weekly carboplatin and paclitaxel might achieve a higher pathological response rate, with an acceptable toxicity profile.
Assessment of efficacy of primary cyto-reductive surgery in patients with advanced primary epithelial ovarian cancer in Comparison to patients receiving neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by surgery in complete excision of the tumor reaching R0 without significant morbidity.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of niraparib combined with oral etoposide in platinum resistant or platinum refractory recurrent ovarian cancer.
This early phase I trial studies how well heated intra-peritoneal chemotherapy with doxorubicin and cisplatin work for the treatment of abdominal or pelvic tumors that can be removed by surgery (resectable), does not respond to treatment (refractory), or has come back (recurrent). Heated intra-peritoneal chemotherapy is a procedure performed in combination with abdominal surgery for cancer that has spread to the abdomen. It involves the infusion of a heated chemotherapy solution that circulates into the abdominal cavity. Chemotherapy drugs, such as doxorubicin and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Heating a chemotherapy solution and infusing it directly into the abdomen may kill more cells.
This is a phase I, open-label, study of BP1001-A in participants with advanced or recurrent solid tumors. The dose escalation phase will determine the safety and the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or maximum administered dose (MAD) of BP1001-A as a single agent. After the MTD or MAD of BP1001-A is established, the dose expansion phase will commence and determine the safety, toxicity and response of BP1001-A in combination with paclitaxel.
Little is known about the characteristics of genetic mutation in a large multi-gene panel in epithelial ovarian cancer. This study is to explore the targeted genetic mutations via a multi-gene panel, which consists of more than 500 hundred genes. The mutation characteristics are to be revealed in single nucleotide variants, copy number variations, insertion-deletion variations, and genomic structural variations. The total mutation burden (TMB) will be calculated. The status of microsatellite instability, expression of PD-1 and PD-L1 antibodies are also tested. These findings will be studies in association with the patients' prognosis and sensitivity to platinum-based chemotherapy.
The homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) status in Chinese population with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is little known. This study would recruit 1300 Chinese EOC patients. A multi-panel testing of 36 genes would be given for these patients in their peripheral blood and tumor tissues. These 36 genes include: BRCA1, BRCA2, ABRAXAS1(FAM175A), ATM, ATR, BAP1, BARD1, BRIP1, C11ORF30(EMSY), CDK12, CHEK1, CHEK2, FANCA, FANCC, FANCD2, FANCI, FANCL, MRE11A, NBN, PALB2, PPP2R2A, PTEN, RAD50, RAD51B, RAD51C, RAD51D, RAD54B, RAD54, MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2, EPCAM, STK11, TP53, CDH1. The study would select 150 patients with pathogenic or likely pathogenic mutations in BRCA1/2 and 150 patients without these mutations to further explore the HRD status. The HRD model is based on the loss of heterozygosity (LOH), telomere allele imbalance (TAI) and large-scale state transitions (LST). The mutated genes, HRD score model and their relationship with the prognosis, would provide a full description of for the Chinese EOC patients.
Background: Ovarian cysts are common in women. The vast majority is benign; yet, ovarian cancer (OC) is seen in 500 women every year in Denmark. OC is often diagnosed in advanced stages, and OC is the fifth most deadly cancer in women in more developed countries. It can be a clinical challenge to distinguish benign ovarian cysts from OC. Currently, the Risk of Malignancy Index (RMI) is used to detect women at high risk of OC in Denmark, however, new methods to correctly differentiate benign ovarian cysts from OC at an early stage is needed. New promising studies suggest an improved diagnostic accuracy by adding the biomarker Human Epididymis Protein 4 (HE4) and systemized ultrasound imaging International Ovarian Tumor Analysis (IOTA). Purpose: The purpose is to evaluate the diagnostic performance of HE4 and IOTA in a Danish clinical setting. Furthermore, to develop an optimized diagnostic algorithm to differentiate ovarian cysts based on a combination of symptoms, biomarkers and IOTA. Methods: The study is a prospective, observational study. Women with ovarian cysts are included from gynecological practitioners and departments in the Capital Region of Denmark. Detailed information on health and symptoms are registered, and the cysts are systematically described by the gynecologist in accordance to the IOTA terminology. HE4 will be analyzed in those women who routinely needs a diagnostic blood test for CA125. Data will be coupled with data from the patient file and Danish Gynecological Cancer Database (DGCD). The diagnostic utility of HE4 and IOTA will be evaluated both alone and in combinations with health information, symptoms, and CA125. The study has been approved by the Regional Committee on Health Research Ethics (H-19021342) and the Data Protection Agency (P-2019-340). Significance: This study establishes a unique database which will form the basis for developing an optimized method for differentiating ovarian cysts, and thus optimize referral and diagnosis.
