Filter by:The receptor tyrosine kinase AXL is a pathway that plays a crucial role in metastasis and chemoresistance. Overexpression of AXL has been associated with metastasis, recurrence, and chemoresistance in various cancer including ovarian cancer[16, 17]}. Targeting AXL is an attractive approach because it is overexpressed among patients with epithelial ovarian cancer and strongly associated with advanced stages, high grade cancer and shorter median survival time. AVB-S6-500 is a potent AXL inhibitor by binding to the ligand Gas6. Pre-clinical studies found that AVB-S6-500 was efficacious in ovarian cancer xenograft tumor models. Interventions which would increase the proportion of patients achieving pCR in this patient population could impact survival favorably and are of interest for study.
The combination of optimal cytoreductive operation (according to Desktop II criteria), HIPEC with Carboplatin 800 mg/m² KOF (Körperoberfläche) and following platinum-based systemic chemotherapy should be executed In patients with platinum-sensitive recurrence of ovarian carcinoma. Condition for HIPEC is attainment of optimal cytoreduction (R0) and experts judgement of a complication-free prolongation of narcosis after finishing the surgery. HIPEC will be administered additionally to standard therapy. If HIPEC was executed the number of systemic given platinum-based chemotherapy decreases for one cycle. This regime should be investigated in terms of safety of performance, quality of life for the patients and consequences for the following systemic chemotherapy.
The primary purpose of this study is to explore the safety and tolerability of AZD0530 in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel in Japanese patients with non small cell lung cancer and epithelial ovarian cancer.
