Filter by:This early phase I trial studies how well a genetic test called pharmacogenomics works in directing the optimal use of supportive care medications in patients with stage III-IV cancer. Pharmacogenomics is the study of how genes may affect the body's response to and interaction with some prescription medications. Genes, which are inherited from parents, carry information that determines things such as eye color and blood type. Genes can also influence how patients process and respond to medications. Depending on the genetic makeup, some medications may work faster or slower or produce more or fewer side effects. Pharmacogenomics testing may help doctors learn more about how patients break down and process specific medications based on their genes and improve the quality of life of cancer patients receiving clinical care.
Surgery and chemotherapy combined constitute first line treatment in women with advanced ovarian cancer. The aim of surgery apart from staging is cytoreduction, i.e. surgical resection of tumour. Radical resection of all tumour visible by the naked eye followed by adjuvant chemotherapy is associated with best chance of prolonged survival. However, because of tumour dissemination in the peritoneal cavity, radical surgery is often very extensive with surgery in all quadrants of the abdomen and multi-organ resection with substantial risk of postoperative severe complications and subsequent delay in administration of adjuvant chemotherapy. Longer time-interval between surgery to start of adjuvant chemotherapy has been associated with decrease in survival. Surgery presents opportunities not only for eradicating tumours but, paradoxically, also for proliferation and invasion of residual cancer cells. It increases the shedding of malignant cells into the blood and lymphatic circulations, inhibits their apoptosis and potentiates their invasion capacity. Additionally, the immune system, the inflammatory system and the neuroendocrine system react to surgery with important changes, which have been proven to promote progression of cancer. Several anaesthesia-related factors play an important role in perioperative tumorigenesis such as inhalational anaesthetics, opiate analgesics, local anaesthetics and regional anaesthesia, all of which may impact short-term morbidity and long-term mortality. A previous randomized placebo-controlled pilot study suggests that women who receive local anesthetics intraperitoneally preoperatively have a significantly decreased time-interval to initiation of adjuvant chemotherapy. In a prospective, randomised, multi-centre study, we plan to further assess if intraperitoneal local anaesthetics administered perioperatively during 72 h leads to early start of chemotherapy compared to placebo in patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery for FIGO stage III-IV ovarian cancer.
To compare the Overall survival of adjuvant chemotherapy versus observation in stage I epithelial ovarian cancer after comprehensive staging surgery
This phase II trial studies the side effects of ONC201 and paclitaxel and how well they work in treating patients with platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that has come back (recurrent), or that does not respond to treatment (refractory). ONC201 is the first in its class of drugs that antagonize some specific cell receptors on cancer cells, leading to their destruction. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving ONC201 and paclitaxel may work better in treating patients with platinum-resistant epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer compared to paclitaxel alone.
This is a phase II/III randomized controlled trial to evaluate efficacy of platinum-based chemotherapy vs conventionally prescribed non-platinum monochemotherapy in patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer
The ATLANTIS-study was designed to determine the safety of a full paracentesis in patients with malignant ascites due to ovarian cancer. The underlying hypothesis states, that full paracentesis does not impair safety, compared to fractioned paracentesis with clamping of the drain. Half of the patients will receive a full paracentesis, while the other half will receive fractioned paracentesis with clamping of the drain after 3 liters of ascites was evacuated. All patients receive extensive monitoring of hemodynamics and kidney function.
This is a Phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation ,and multidose study, aiming to investigate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of Gimatecan in Advanced Ovarian Epithelial Cancer, Fallopian Tube Cancer or Primary Peritoneal Cancer. To explore the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) and the maximum tolerable dose (MTD) of oral administration of Gimatecan capsules 5 consecutive days, every 28 days.
This is a prospective observational French multicenter cohort in patients with ovarian and/or primitive peritoneal and/or fallopian tubes carcinoma, histologically confirmed, with an advanced stage at diagnosis (stage III to IV FIGO 2014). The objective is to constitute a clinico-biological database that allows to correlate clinical and progressive features of ovarian cancer patients based on tumor genomics and molecular detected abnormalities.
This research study is evaluating a new type of vaccine called "Personalized NeoAntigen Cancer Vaccine" in combination with Nivolumab (Opdivo®) for ovarian cancer.
This trial studies the side effects and best dose of AVB-S6-500 when given together with durvalumab in treating patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that is resistant to platinum therapy or has come back. Immunotherapy with AVB-S6-500 and durvalumab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
