NCT ID: NCT03811899 Completed - Clinical trials for Stage IV Ovarian Cancer

18F-DCFPyL PET/CT in High-grade Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (PET HOC)

Start date: April 1, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to determine whether high grade epithelial ovarian cancers (=HG EOC) are 18F-DCFPyL (=2-(3-(1-carboxy-5-[(6-[18F]fluoro-pyridine-3-carbonyl)-amino]-pentyl)-ureido)-pentanedioic acid)-avid and to compare the performance of this PET to CT and findings at time of surgery Background: There is a need for better noninvasive tools that will map disease extent in HG EOC. A recent study has shown that at immunohistochemistry GCP=II is overexpressed in ovarian cancer tumors, both primary and metastatic. Glucose carboxypeptidase-II (=GCP-II), also known as prostate specific membrane antigen (= PSMA) has been used clinically to assess patients with prostate cancer and many other tumors have been shown to be PSMA-avid on PET (including renal cell carcinomas). 18F-DCFPyL has the potential to improve patient selection for primary therapy. If successful, this may decrease the rate of futile surgeries and associated morbidity and better direct patients to the most appropriate therapy primary debulking surgery (PDS) vs neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). Furthermore, if high-level GCP-II expression is shown at preoperative imaging in patients with HG EOC, this may be used in considering feasibility of future theranostic applications. Study Design: This is a single arm pilot study to assess whether HG EOC are 18F-DCFPyL-avid. In this prospective trial, the investigators will recruit 20 women whom will undergo conventional staging with contrast-enhanced CT of the abdomen and pelvis as per standard of care. All disease sites, primary and metastatic will be recorded using a standardized reporting template. Subsequently, 18F-DCFPyL-PET/CT will be performed (within 6 weeks of CT). All disease sites on PET will be recorded using same reporting template in addition to qualitative and semiquantitative evaluation (SUV measurement) of all known tumor sites.

NCT ID: NCT03297489 Completed - Clinical trials for Primary Peritoneal Carcinoma

Intravital Microscopy in Evaluating Patients With Primary Peritoneal, Fallopian Tube, or Stage IA-IV Ovarian Cancer

Start date: November 6, 2017
Phase: Early Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This pilot clinical trial studies how well intravital microscopy works in evaluating patients with primary peritoneal, fallopian tube, or stage IA-IV ovarian cancer. Intravital microscopic evaluation of tumor blood vessels, blood flow, immune cell interactions, and drug uptake may be eventually visualized and may lead to valuable prognostic information.

NCT ID: NCT03188432 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Stage IV Ovarian Cancer

Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy Trial Comparing Quality of Life in Patients With Stage IIIC-IV Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, or Primary Peritoneal Cancer

Start date: October 13, 2017
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial studies how well hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy works in improving quality of life in patients with stage IIIC-IV ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. In hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy, the chemotherapy is warmed before being used and may help the drugs get into the cancer cells better, minimize the toxicity of the drugs on normal cells, and help to kill any cancer cells left over after surgery.

NCT ID: NCT03154190 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Health Care Coach Support in Reducing Acute Care Use and Cost in Patients With Cancer

Start date: August 8, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This randomized pilot clinical trial studies health care coach support in reducing acute care use and cost in patients with cancer. Health care coach support may help cancer patients to make decisions about their care that matches what is important to them with symptom management.

NCT ID: NCT03029611 Terminated - Clinical trials for Stage IV Ovarian Cancer

IGFBP-2 Vaccine and Combination Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Stage III-IV Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, or Primary Peritoneal Cancer Undergoing Surgery

Start date: April 3, 2017
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This phase II trial studies how well pUMVC3-IGFBP2 plasmid deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) vaccine (IGFBP-2 vaccine) and combination chemotherapy work in treating patients with stage III-IV ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer undergoing surgery. IGFBP-2 is a protein found in the blood and tumor cells of most who have been diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Too much IGFBP-2 has been associated with more invasive disease. Vaccines made from DNA may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells that express IGFBP-2. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel 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. Giving IGFBP-2 vaccine and combination chemotherapy may work better in treating patients with stage III-IV ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer undergoing surgery.

NCT ID: NCT02872519 Withdrawn - Clinical trials for Stage IV Ovarian Cancer

PET Imaging of Ovarian Carcinoma With 18F-FSPG

Start date: June 2018
Phase: Early Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This clinical trial studies positron emission tomography (PET) imaging utilizing 18F-FSPG [(S)-4-(3-[18F]Fluoropropyl)-L-glutamic acid], a glutamic acid derivative, to image patients with ovarian cancer before undergoing surgery or transplant. Diagnostic procedures, such as 18F-FSPG PET, may help find and diagnose ovarian cancer and find out how far the disease has spread.

NCT ID: NCT02833506 Withdrawn - Clinical trials for Recurrent Ovarian Carcinoma

Sirolimus and Vaccine Therapy in Treating Patients With Stage II-IV Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, or Primary Peritoneal Cancer

Start date: December 8, 2017
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This phase I clinical trial studies the side effects of sirolimus and NY-ESO-1 protein with MIS416 in treating patients stage II-IV ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. Sirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Vaccine therapy, like Y-ESO-1 protein with MIS416, may strengthen the immune system to find and kill tumor cells. Biological therapies, such as sirolimus, use substances made from living organisms that may stimulate or suppress the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Giving sirolimus and vaccine therapy may work betting in treating patients with ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer.

NCT ID: NCT02646319 Completed - Clinical trials for Stage IV Breast Cancer

Nanoparticle Albumin-Bound Rapamycin in Treating Patients With Advanced Cancer With mTOR Mutations

Start date: January 2016
Phase: Early Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This pilot trial studies how well nanoparticle albumin-bound rapamycin works in treating patients with cancer that as has spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced cancer) and that has an abnormality in a protein called mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR). Patients with this mutation are identified by genetic testing. Patients then receive nanoparticle albumin-bound rapamycin, which may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking the mTOR enzyme, which is needed for cell growth and multiplication. Using treatments that target a patient's specific mutation may be a more effective treatment than the standard of care treatment.

NCT ID: NCT02567396 Withdrawn - Clinical trials for Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Talazoparib in Treating Patients With Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors That Cannot Be Removed by Surgery and Liver or Kidney Dysfunction

Start date: June 2016
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of talazoparib in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other places in the body and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment (advanced) or have spread to other places in the body (metastatic) and cannot be removed by surgery and liver or kidney dysfunction. Talazoparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

NCT ID: NCT02470559 Withdrawn - Clinical trials for Recurrent Ovarian Carcinoma

Activated T-cell Therapy, Low-Dose Aldesleukin, and Sargramostim in Treating Patients With Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, or Primary Peritoneal Cancer That is Stage III-IV, Refractory, or Recurrent

Start date: June 2015
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of activated T-cell therapy when given together with low-dose aldesleukin and sargramostim in treating patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that is stage III-IV, has not responded to previous treatment, or has come back. Activated T cells that have been coated with bi-specific antibodies, such as anti-cluster of differentiation (CD)3 and anti-human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Aldesleukin may stimulate white blood cells to kill tumor cells. Colony-stimulating factors, such as sargramostim, may increase the production of blood cells. Giving activated T-cell therapy with low-dose aldesleukin and sargramostim may be a better treatment for ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.
