Filter by:Complete macroscopic surgical resection (CMR) requires extensive surgery and combined with chemotherapy confers best chance of survival in advanced ovarian cancer. During cytoreductive surgery 11% of women require a temporary diverting intestinal stoma. Unexpectedly, our results from a unique fully accounted for population demonstrate that survival was not improved when increasing the proportion of women in whom CMR was achieved and in a yet unidentified subgroup of women extensive surgery was detrimental. In these women surgical treatment should be omitted in favor of chemotherapy only. Accordingly, there is an imperative need to improve patient selection to surgical treatment. In Sweden, we treat an unselected population of women in a public healthcare system, where 30% of women with are >75 years. Despite these circumstances guidelines on patient-selection are lacking. Age is an imprecise variable to base clinical decisions on but must be considered with an aging population. The dynamics between physiological changes of aging, comorbidity and medical condition are included in the concept of frailty, that has gained little attention in oncology, despite their potential to stratify risk and mortality. The FOLERO study is a prospective adequately powered national cohort study with aim to determine if frailty instruments may be used to select patient to surgical treatment. In addition, we test the feasibility of early stoma reversal after index cytoreductive surgery in a small phase I trial and follow our patients Health Related Quality of Life after state of the art surgical treatment.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of BL-M07D1 in patients with HER2 expressing advanced tumors.
Participants will be scheduled for primary cytoreductive surgery as part of their standard care. Before surgery, participants will be assigned by chance to a study group. Depending on which group they are in, they will receive either acute normovolemic hemodilution/ANH during surgery or standard surgical management during surgery. The researchers think acute normovolemic hemodilution/ANH may decrease the need for allogenic blood transfusion/ABT in people having primary cytoreductive surgery.
This study aims to evaluate the safety, and early signals of anti-tumor activity of PF-07820435 when administered alone (Part 1A) or in combination with sasanlimab (Part 1B; Part 2) in patients with selected advanced or metastatic solid tumors. Part 1 will be dose-finding and Part 2 of the study will further evaluate PF-07820435 at the recommended dose for combination expansion in patients with selected advanced solid tumors.
Cancer patients are burdened by an increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE), which has a significant impact on morbidity and mortality. Existing Risk Prediction Models (RPMs), including the widely accepted Khorana Risk Score (KRS), have some limitations when used in certain tumor site populations, such as gynecological cancers. Notably, gynecological patients exhibit a variable risk of VTE based on their specific tumor sites, with ovarian cancer representing the highest risk. Moreover, currently available RPMs lack validation in a broad gynecological population and may fail to effectively stratify VTE risk. GynCAT is a prospective cohort study that will be conducted on female patients with gynecologic malignancies scheduled for systemic antineoplastic treatment. During the screening phase, symptomatic VTE will be excluded, and KRS will be assessed. Pharmacological thromboprophylaxis will be considered and prescribed at clinical judgement, for patients with a KRS score of 3 or higher. Clinical, hematological, biochemical, coagulation, and genetic variables will be collected. Follow-up will last for the entire duration of the antineoplastic treatment line, and VTE events, bleeding events, and mortality will be recorded. The primary objective is the development and validation of an RPM for VTE in gynecologic cancer patients undergoing systemic antineoplastic treatment. Secondary objectives are evaluation of the predictive value of the identified model, comparing it with existing general oncology RPMs; assessment of its performance in predicting mortality; evaluation of VTE incidence in patients with KRS≥3 receiving thromboprophylaxis; identification of risk factors for bleeding in this patient population. The sample size calculation is based on an estimated VTE incidence of 5% over a mean follow-up of 12 months. Hence, a sample size of at least 1,200 patients in the derivation cohort is considered sufficient for the determination of a risk prediction model incorporating up to six predictor variables. A split-sample method will be used, with two-thirds of the study participants randomly assigned to the model derivation cohort (n=1,200) and one-third (n=600) to an independent validation cohort. The total number of patients recruited in the study will thus be of 1,800. A competing risk survival analysis with Fine & Gray model will be used to study the association between prognostic variables and VTE occurrence, considering death as a competitive risk. The RPM will be identified through a bootstrap approach to reduce the risk of overfitting. Discrimination power of the RPM will be assessed using time-dependent Receiving Operating Characteristic curve, and model calibration will be evaluated graphically and with the calculation of relative calibration slopes. In conclusion, this prospective cohort study aims to overcome the limitations of current RPMs in gynecologic cancer patients, improving the accuracy of VTE risk stratification in this population.
This study plans to enroll 80 patients with locally advanced cervical cancer (stage IB-ⅣA) confirmed by histology or cytology (according to the 2018 FIGO staging standard), who are expected to receive surgical resection or curative radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Collect baseline tumor tissue samples from patients during the treatment period, as well as peripheral blood samples (20 ml/time) from multiple treatment timepoints. Mutations in tumor tissue were detected by the 1021 genes panel, then personalized MRD monitoring probes were customized for patients, allowing for multi node peripheral blood sample ctDNA detection of enrolled patients. The clinical significance of ctDNA in prognostic stratification, recurrence monitoring, and efficacy prediction in surgical/non-surgical cervical cancer patients was explored. And compare the consistency and differences between ctDNA detection technology, imaging, and blood tumor markers in monitoring tumor disease progression, and evaluate the correlation between ctDNA status after curative treatment and patient PFS and RFS.
Within the context of pleural carcinosis, the present study is a dose escalation with determination of the maximum tolerated doses (MTD) of pressurized cisplatin administration associated to moderate hyperthermia in the pleura. This will be followed by an expansion phase at the recommended dose (RD).
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the treatment effectiveness of physician's choice of chemotherapy and the immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-based therapy in patients with relapsed/refractory ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC), and compare the treatment response with the phase II, single-arm clinical trial INOVA to investigate the efficacy of combinational therapy of sintilimab plus bevacizumab. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the efficacy of physician's choice of chemotherapy in relapsed/refractory OCCC patients in the real world? - Is ICI-based therapy more effective than physician's choice of chemotherapy in real-world for relapsed/refractory OCCC patients? - Dose the combinational regimens of sintilimab plus bevacizumab in Sintilimab Plus Bevacizumab in Recurrent/Persistent Ovarian Clear Cell Carcinoma (INOVA) trial more effective than physician's choice of chemotherapy? Participants will be respectively retrieved and extracted de-identified, longitudinal electronic health records (EHR)-derived data.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether the investigational drug XmAb541 is safe and well tolerated, and to determine an optimal and safe dose(s) for further study. The study will also evaluate effect of XmAb541 on tumor outcomes.
A detailed understanding of molecular mechanism of cancer genesis is fundamental to develop innovative and personalized therapies. The new frontier in biomedical research is represented by organoids, a three-dimensional cell culture system obtained from a tissue fragment that accurately reproduces the essential properties of the original tissue in vitro, which could provide a valuable model for explanation of ovarian cancers pathogenesis and will allow to predict the response to a specific therapy. With this research project, we expect to generate ovarian cancer organoids to characterize in vitro interactions and molecular pathway among tumor cells, immune cells, and resident microbiota (intratumoral bacteria and/or microbial-derived molecules).
