Filter by:This is a multi-center, randomized, open-label, phase 1/2 study of continuous weekly paclitaxel and escalating doses of intermittent or continuous OSI-906 in patients with recurrent/relapsed ovarian and other solid tumors.
This phase II trial studies how well elesclomol sodium and paclitaxel work in treating patients with ovarian epithelial cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer that has returned after a period of improvement (recurrent) or is persistent. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as elesclomol sodium and paclitaxel, 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. Elesclomol sodium may also help paclitaxel work better by making tumor cells more sensitive to the drug.
This is a multi center international observational study of subjects receiving myelotoxic regimens, with an investigator assessed risk of Febrile Neutropenia (FN) ≥ 20%, for the treatment of solid tumors (breast, ovarian and lung). Approximately 100-150 sites will contribute information on 10-15 subjects treated at their institution.
Background: - Endometrial and ovarian cancers are, respectively, the fourth and eighth most common cancers among women in the United States. Although some routine Pap tests may detect the presence of cancer cells, there are no convincing early detection approaches for either cancer. Better methods of detection are needed. - Two possible methods for cancer detection involve samples taken with a tampon or a special kind of brush, called a Tao brush. Researchers would like to know more about how well these methods work. Objectives: - To assess the quality of DNA collected by the tampon and Tao brush sampling methods. - To detect genetic markers in collected DNA and determine if these markers are related to an individual s cancer status. Eligibility: - Women age 45 years and older with confirmed or suspected endometrial or ovarian cancer, who will be having surgery. - A control group of postmenopausal women having surgery for benign gynecological conditions will be included. Design: - Shortly before hysterectomy or more extensive procedures to treat either cancer or the benign condition: - A tampon will be inserted into the vagina to collect cell samples, and removed after 30 minutes. - After the tampon is removed, the cervix will be swabbed with the Tao brush to collect cell samples. - Following the hysterectomy, samples of healthy and cancerous tissue will be taken, and tested by researchers.
The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose of Genexol®-PM plus Carboplatin and evaluate the efficacy and safety of Genexol®-PM plus Carboplatin regimen in subjects with advanced ovarian cancer.
This study is being done to see if most patients are willing and able to report how they are feeling after surgery using the internet, and if this information can help doctors and nurses detect concerning symptoms after surgery. This study uses a special new website called WEBCORE. Patients can logon to WEBCORE and answer questions about how they are feeling. Then, doctors and nurses can look at this information during clinic appointments. We are doing this study to see if WEBCORE is a helpful way for us to keep track of information about how patients are feeling and quality of life. If WEBCORE is helpful, we will use it in the future to collect more information about patients' symptoms and quality of life. We can use what we learn to help find better ways of helping patients to prepare for what they will go through while they recover from surgery.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the combination of bevacizumab and pemetrexed have an effect on recurrent ovarian and primary peritoneal carcinoma by looking at progression and survival at 6 months.
The study design is a non-randomized, open label, single center Phase II trial. Eligible patients are women who have a confirmed diagnosis of ovary, fallopian tube cancer or primary peritoneal serous papillary carcinoma who have relapsed or are refractory to therapy after primary treatment of their disease. Patients will be treated with bendamustine Hydrochloride 90 mg/m2 intravenously on days 1(± 1 day) and 2 (± 1 day) every 28 days. If no grade ≥3 hematologic adverse event appears the dose will be escalated to 120 mg/m2 on days 1(± 1 day) and 2 (± 1 day) every 28 days at cycle 2. 20 patients will be enrolled in the study. OBJECTIVES Hypothesis/Rationale: To determine the efficacy and safety of bendamustine hydrochloride, in women with platinum and taxane refractory ovarian cancer.
This was a study to determine whether therapy with pazopanib was effective and safe in women with epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer whose cancer had not progressed on first line chemotherapy.
