Filter by:T cell activating therapy DPX-Survivac, low dose oral cyclophosphamide, and IDO1 inhibitor epacadostat will be tested together for the first time in patients with recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer to determine the safety and potential immune-modulating activity of the combination of these agents.
ANGLE has developed the Parsortix™ Cell Separation System (Parsortix), an automated system capable of harvesting rare circulating cells for analysis from a sample of peripheral blood based on cellular size and deformability. In a small pilot study, scientists at the Medical University of Vienna demonstrated that measurement of a combination of mRNA markers extracted from CTCs captured using the Parsortix system could be used to identify women with ovarian cancer. This study is designed to provide specimens for optimization of an assay using clinical and biomarker information (i.e. demographics, imaging results and/or serum tumor markers) in combination with mRNA extracted from rare cells in the blood of women presenting with a pelvic mass for the detection of malignancy. Primary Objective: Optimization of an assay/algorithm for the differentiation of women with benign pelvic masses from those with malignant pelvic masses using clinical and biomarker information (i.e. demographics, imaging results and/or serum tumor markers) in combination with mRNA markers extracted from rare cells isolated from whole blood. Multiple serum protein markers and mRNA markers will be measured, and the results will be compared to the actual clinical diagnosis made for each subject through other recognized methods (i.e. histopathology). Statistical modeling will be used to combine the clinical information, serum protein markers and/or mRNA markers for estimation of the risk of malignancy. If successful, the resulting risk algorithm will be evaluated in future, appropriately powered, prospective studies. Exploratory Objective: Use statistical modeling to determine the need for and/or preliminary design of a mathematical algorithm to combine the clinical information, serum protein markers and/or mRNA markers for estimation of the risk of malignancy.
The primary objective is to administer a cross-sectional survey to directly compare the differences patients and physicians hold regarding ovarian cancer prognosis and survival, complications arising from treatment, and counseling on advance directives, living wills, palliative care, and hospice services. Overall, the project will pinpoint opportunities for better patient physician communication regarding prognosis and end-of-life care and allow for more informed and tailored decision-making.
Phase II single arm, open label, nonrandomized study. The aim of our study is to assess the Progression Free Survival (PFS) in suboptimally cytoreduced epithelial ovarian/ primary peritoneal/ fallopian tube cancer patients treated with the novel combination of carboplatin every 21 days (triweekly) /weekly paclitaxel IV with pembrolizumab IV followed by maintenance pembrolizumab IV.
This is a Phase 2 clinical trial, which tests two investigational drugs: TPIV200/huFR-1 (also called TPIV200), which is a vaccine consisting of proteins from the folate receptor alpha mixed with GM-CSF, and durvalumab (MEDI4736) , which is an antibody drug that help un-block parts of the immune system. The aim of this study is to find out whether these drugs, when given together are safe, and whether they are effective in treating cancer.
This phase II trial studies how well surgery works in preventing ovarian cancer in patients with genetic mutations at risk of ovarian cancer. Risk reducing salpingo oophorectomy (RRSO) is surgery to remove the fallopian tubes and ovaries at the same time. Interval salpingectomy with delayed oophorectomy (ISDO) is surgery to remove the fallopian tubes. It is not known whether ISDO works better than RRSO at lowering risk of ovarian cancer and improving the sexual function and psychosocial well-being in patients with genetic mutation.
The purpose of this study is to determine if GL-ONC1 oncolytic immunotherapy is well tolerated with anti-tumor activity in patients diagnosed with recurrent or refractory ovarian cancer and peritoneal carcinomatosis.
Epithelial ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecological malignancy in developed countries and the fifth most common cause of cancer-related death in women. Poor prognosis is due to challenges in early diagnosis and development of inevitable resistance to chemotherapy in majority of patients despite of good initial treatment response. The purpose of this prospective study is to analyze variation in microRNA expression in prediction of primary treatment response and the role of microRNAs in development of chemoresistance in epithelial ovarian cancer. • Objectives: To screen microRNAs from prospectively collected plasma, urine and tumor samples from patients diagnosed with epithelial ovarian cancer. Samples are analyzed for microRNA expression and differential expression is correlated with primary treatment response, progression-free survival and overall survival. • Methods: Plasma, urine and tumor samples are collected at primary surgery (open surgery or diagnostic laparoscopy) or interval debulking surgery, at 1st, 3rd and 6th neoadjuvant or adjuvant chemotherapy and at progression for high-throughput screening of microRNA expression by array technology.
This phase I/II trial studies how well birinapant and carboplatin work in treating patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that has come back. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as birinapant and carboplatin 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.
Anetumab ravtansine is developed for the treatment of patients with recurrent platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. The purpose of the proposed trial is to identify the maximum tolerated dose of anetumab ravtansine that could be safely combined with pegylated liposomal doxorubicin in this indication.
