Filter by:This study is designed to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and preliminary efficacy of DTA-H19 administered intraperitoneally (IP) in subjects with advanced stage ovarian cancer, or primary peritoneal carcinoma
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation directly into the abdomen may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of intraperitoneal paclitaxel albumin-stabilized nanoparticle formulation in treating patients with advanced cancer of the peritoneal cavity.
The study objective is to compare changes in expression of glucocorticoid-induced genes that may be involved in cell survival signaling in the tumors of ovarian cancer patients before and after an intraoperative dose of 20mg dexamethasone.
This is the first in human study of AGS-8M4 given every 2 weeks to subjects with advanced ovarian cancer. AGS-8M4 will be administered as an IV infusion until the disease worsens.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of cisplatin given together with paclitaxel in treating patients with stage IIB, stage IIC, stage III, or stage IV ovarian epithelial cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cavity cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) and giving them in different ways may kill more tumor cells.
This is a multicenter, open-label, two-arm, 2-stage, Phase 2 study of NKTR-102 in patients with metastatic or locally advanced platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. Approximately 70 patients will be randomized 1:1 into one of two treatment arms. NKTR-102 will be administered at a dose level of 145 mg/m^2 in both arms. In Arm A, NKTR-102 will be given on a q14d schedule. In Arm B, NKTR-102 will be given on a q21d schedule. After the initial 70 patients have been enrolled, Arm B will enroll approximately 110 additional patients.
RATIONALE: Palliative care may help improve the quality of life of patients with ovarian cancer who are undergoing intraperitoneal chemotherapy. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying palliative care in patients with ovarian cancer who are undergoing intraperitoneal chemotherapy.
This was a Phase 1, non-randomized, open-label, multicenter study of the ALVAC(2)-NY-ESO-1(M)/TRICOM vaccine administered with the granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) sargramostim in patients with NY-ESO-1- or LAGE-1-positive epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cavity cancers who had completed standard therapy for primary or recurrent disease and would have normally entered a period of observation. The primary study objective was to determine the safety and tolerability of study vaccination, with secondary objectives including the determination of clinical and immunological responses.
The purpose of this research study is to collect tumor samples at the time of surgery and store them for possible use as part of an experimental vaccine study for the participants cancer in the future.
The folate receptor (FR) is a cell over expressed on the surface of certain cancers, this occurs most frequently in ovarian cancers. Some normal tissues also express the FR, however in these normal tissues, the FR is usually located on the tissue surface that is inaccessible to circulating drugs. As such, drugs which target the FR may potentially be used to target cancers which overexpress the FR while reducing toxicity to normal tissues. Therefore the ability to measure FR levels from different cancer types may help to select patients who are most likely to benefit from treatment with FR targeted therapies. Once such drug BGC945 is currently being tested in preclinical study at the Institute of Cancer Research
