Filter by:The ATLANTIS-study was designed to determine the safety of a full paracentesis in patients with malignant ascites due to ovarian cancer. The underlying hypothesis states, that full paracentesis does not impair safety, compared to fractioned paracentesis with clamping of the drain. Half of the patients will receive a full paracentesis, while the other half will receive fractioned paracentesis with clamping of the drain after 3 liters of ascites was evacuated. All patients receive extensive monitoring of hemodynamics and kidney function.
This is a prospective observational French multicenter cohort in patients with ovarian and/or primitive peritoneal and/or fallopian tubes carcinoma, histologically confirmed, with an advanced stage at diagnosis (stage III to IV FIGO 2014). The objective is to constitute a clinico-biological database that allows to correlate clinical and progressive features of ovarian cancer patients based on tumor genomics and molecular detected abnormalities.
This research study is evaluating a new type of vaccine called "Personalized NeoAntigen Cancer Vaccine" in combination with Nivolumab (Opdivo®) for ovarian cancer.
This is a study investigating folate deficiency (lack of folic acid in the blood) in patients who take the drug olaparib to treat their advanced ovarian or breast cancer. The primary goal of this study is to determine the frequency and timing of folate deficiency, and to learn more about whether giving folic acid supplements (vitamins) will help delay or avoid deficiency in these patients. Deficiency can cause doctors to reduce or stop treatment with olaparib. In this case, patients are not getting the best treatment for their cancer due to the unwanted side effect.
Rationale: Cancer is primarily diagnosed by clinical presentation, imaging and pathological analysis of tissue biopsies, increasingly supported by molecular diagnostics tests. However, late diagnosis and misdiagnosis due to limitations of tissue biopsy acquisition remains a major problem. Therefore, a general blood test to pinpoint cancer early and adequately can be considered the 'Holy Grail', because diagnosis in an earlier stage significantly improves the chance of cure from cancer. Several blood-based sources are currently being evaluated as liquid biopsies, including circulating tumor (ct) DNA and circulating tumor cells, but none of these have been implemented for primary (multiclass) cancer diagnostics. Protein tumor markers have been used for decades in diagnosis and monitoring of treatment response in different cancers. Tumor-educated platelets (TEPs) can function as potential blood-based source for (early) cancer diagnostics. Blood platelets are implicated in hemostasis and wound healing. Platelets have recently emerged as central players and immediate responders in the systemic and local responses to tumor growth. Confrontation of platelets by tumor cells via transfer of tumor-associated molecules ('education') results in the sequestration of these molecules (derived from both tumor and its micro-environment), causing a distinct platelet messenger Ribonucleic acid (mRNA) profile. We have previously shown that platelets acquire glioblastoma and prostate cancer mRNA biomarkers and that glioblastoma TEP mRNA profiles harbour diagnostic potential. Furthermore, circulating tumor desoxyrubonucleic acid (ctDNA) has recently been implicated as biomarker for therapy effectiveness and survival. Objective: develop and evaluate the potential of combination of tumor markers, TEPs and ctDNA as liquid biomarkers for (early) ovarium cancer diagnostics and as markers for therapy response and survival. Study design: investigator-initiated, longitudinal, observational study. Study population: patients suspected of having ovarium cancer and are therefore planned for surgery. Main study parameters/endpoints: The difference in biomarker profile from benign ovarium lesions versus cancerous lesions. Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness. There is no extra burden/risk for the patients in this study. Three extra vials of blood.
This trial studies the side effects and best dose of AVB-S6-500 when given together with durvalumab in treating patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that is resistant to platinum therapy or has come back. Immunotherapy with AVB-S6-500 and durvalumab, may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
Assessing the safety and efficacy of the bevacizumab, Olaparib and Durvalumab (MEDI 4736) combination in patient with high grade serous or high grade endometrioid or other high grade epithelial non mucinous ovarian tumor, with at least one previous line of platinum-taxane chemotherapy, and present with platinum resistant disease (PRR) or platinum-sensitive relapse (PSR), whatever the line of chemotherapy given at relapse.
The goal of this non-randomized prospective study is to use 18F-EF5-PET/CT imaging to identify and locate intraabdominal hypoxic ovarian cancer lesions. With targeted surgical sampling, precisely obtain hypoxic and potentially chemoresistant cancer tissue for our analyses and identify key molecular differences between hypoxic and non-hypoxic tumors within the same patient. A portion of advanced stage EOC are inoperable at diagnosis and can be treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) before surgery. This approach offers a unique opportunity to study how hypoxic tumor areas respond to treatment.
This research study will test the efficacy of interactive, web-based interventions that improve diet, physical activity and weight management changes among early stage survivors of breast, prostate, colorectal, endometrial, renal, thyroid, and ovarian cancers, as well as multiple myeloma and non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. Overarching outcomes also include physical function and performance, muscle mass, quality of life, and health utilities.
The study is conducted to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of apatinib (375 mg qd) and etoposide capsule (50 mg/d, d1-14, q3w) in subjects with platinum resistant or refractory ovarian cancer compared with weekly paclitaxel (80 mg/m2, d1, d8, d15, q3w).
