Filter by:Although immunotherapy has revolutionized the treatment of many cancers, ovarian cancer patients have not yet benefitted from the advances. In two consecutive pilot trials at National Center for Cancer Immune Therapy (CCIT-DK), is has been have shown that adoptive cell therapy (ACT) with TILs for patients with advanced ovarian cancer (OC) is feasible and tolerable. In the most recent of these trials ACT was combined with a CTLA-4 inhibitor, Ipilimumab and a PD1-inhibitor, Nivolumab. Only transient clinical responses where observed. Between 90-100 % of infused T-cells in our previous ovarian cancer ACT trial expressed LAG-3. The interaction between LAG-3 on T-cells and MHC-II on tumor cells inhibits T-cell function. In this study adding the LAG-3 antibody Relatlimab to the ACT-regimen described above may therefore well unleash T-cell antitumor efficacy by blocking the known LAG-3-MHC-II interaction. With this study the aim is to demonstrate that adding the lag-3-inhibitor Relatlimab to the above treatment regimen is feasible and tolerable. The study will elucidate whether the combination Relatlimab-Nivolumab leads to objective responses and improves progression free survival (PFS).
This trial will be a phase I dose-escalation study of lapatinib and paclitaxel for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer, which will establish the phase II dose for subsequent efficacy trials.
Cytoreductive surgery is currently the main treatment for advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (AEOC), and the complete disease removal (RT=0) or the achievement of an optimal residual disease (RT < 1 cm) remain the factors with the greatest prognostic impact, both in primary debulking surgery (PDS) and interval debulking surgery (IDS). To achieve the no residual disease (RT=0), several surgical manoeuvres are often needed both at the upper and lower abdomen, including intestinal resections. Recto-sigmoid resection is certainly the most frequent of intestinal resections, and it is also the one with the highest risk of complication. Albeit rare, anastomosis leakage (AL) is a life-threating condition and therefore it is the most feared of intestinal complications. The aim of this large single-center retrospective study was to assess the AL rate in patients subjected to colorectal resection and anastomosis during primary surgery (PDS or IDS) for advanced ovarian cancer, in a third referral centre for gynecologic oncology with ESGO certification. In addition, we evaluated several possible pre/intra and post-operative risk factors for AL in order to identify, at an early stage, the population at greatest risk, and attempt to reduce the morbidity and mortality of this severe post-operative complication
Small cell ovarian carcinomas are rare and have a very poor prognosis affecting a young population. The objective of this study is to increase the efficacy of the initial chemotherapy by providing immunotherapy and to be able to offer to more patients the possibility of benefiting from an intensification of chemotherapy, which is a major prognostic factor in this population.
Ovarian cancer is the most fatal gynecologic cancer; in the US alone an estimated 22,000 women will be diagnosed in 2019, with over 13,000 dying of the disease. Approximately half of epithelial ovarian cancers (EOC) exhibit defective DNA repair through alterations in the homologous recombination (HR) pathway, with 14% accounted for by germline mutations in BRCA genes (mBRCA); this goes up to about one in five (20%) women when one includes tumor-associated (somatic) mBRCA.The approach to women with mBRCA-associated ovarian cancer has heralded precision treatment in our field with the availability of PARP inhibitors. Now indicated as treatment for women with documented mBRCA (genomic or somatic), it also has shown significant benefits for women with recurrent EOC who respond to platinum-based therapy when administered as maintenance treatment.
This monocentric, prospective, observational study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of apatinib in combination with albumin binds paclitaxel and carboplatin or cisplatinum as first-line treatment for stage II-IV epithelial ovarian cancer followed by apatinib maintenance therapy in routine clinical practice. Eligible patients will be followed for approximately 20 months.
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most lethal gynecological malignancy. PARP inhibitors(PARPi) are an important progress in EOC treatment. The available evidence suggests that BRCAmt or HRD-positive is an effective biological marker for PARPi. However, in our previous clinical observation, it was found that the tumor burden may be the potential clinical markers PARPi. We intend to develop a real-world study to confirm the potential clinical markers and explore new clinical markers for PARPi.
This is a phase II, single arm, multi-centre study to assess the efficacy of pembrolizumab in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy (investigator's choice: carboplatin + gemcitabine or carboplatin + pegylated liposomal doxorubicin) administered concurrent to chemotherapy and in maintenance, in patients with low grade ovarian cancer (including patients with primary peritoneal and / or fallopian tube adenocarcinoma) having platinum-sensitive relapse (platinum-free interval > 6 months).
This phase III trial compares minimally invasive surgery (MIS) to laparotomy in treating patients with stage IIIC-IV ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer who are receiving chemotherapy before and after surgery (neoadjuvant chemotherapy). MIS is a surgical procedure that uses small incision(s) and is intended to produce minimal blood loss and pain for the patient. Laparotomy is a surgical procedure which allows the doctors to remove some or all of the tumor and check if the disease has spread to other organs in the body. MIS may work the same or better than standard laparotomy after chemotherapy in prolonging the return of the disease and/or improving quality of life after surgery.
Ovarian cancer is a relatively uncommon but serious disease. It ranks 10th for female cancers, 5th for mortality, and its origin is still imperfectly known. It has a silent history for a long time, is often diagnosed late, and the prognosis is poor with a high relapse rate. It is therefore necessary to assess and prevent the risk of relapse, in order to establish a diagnosis as early as possible, and thus set up the appropriate treatment. Poly-ADP-Ribose Polymerase (PARP) inhibitors such as OLAPARIB and NIRAPARIB are effective in maintenance to prevent the risk of relapse in patients with recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer, as proved by recent data from the medical literature. Nevertheless, there may be a difference between "real life" and clinical trial data. Thus, the objective of this cohort is to assess whether the efficacy and safety of PARP inhibitors is the same in Finistère patients as in the scientific literature.
