Filter by:This multicenter prospective study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of Avastin (bevacizumab) in routine clinical practice in patients with advanced/metastatic epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer or primary peritoneal cancer. Data will be collected from eligible patients until death, withdrawal of consent, loss to follow-up, or study closure.
The goal of this clinical research study is to compare ovarian cancer screening, risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy (RRSO), and prophylactic salpingectomy with delayed oophorectomy (PSDO). The safety of RRSO and PSDO will also be studied. Ovarian cancer screening does not involve a surgical procedure. Instead, physical exams, blood tests, and ultrasound are used to check for ovarian, fallopian tube, and peritoneal cancer. The surgical procedures, RRSO and PSDO, are designed to lower your risk of ovarian cancer. In RRSO, the fallopian tubes and ovaries are removed at the same time. In PSDO, the fallopian tubes are removed and the ovaries remain in place so that the patient does not go through menopause. The ovaries are removed at a later date. The main goal of this study is to learn how many patients actually have their ovaries removed at a later date. Researchers also want to learn whether the removal of fallopian tubes will decrease the risk of ovarian cancer.
A Phase III, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-centre study to assess the efficacy of olaparib maintenance monotherapy in relapsed high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) patients (including patients with primary peritoneal and / or fallopian tube cancer) or high grade endometrioid cancer with BRCA mutations (documented mutation in BRCA1 or BRCA2 that is predicted to be deleterious or suspected deleterious (known or predicted to be detrimental/lead to loss of function)) who have responded following platinum based chemotherapy.
Olaparib Monotherapy in Patients with BRCA Mutated Ovarian Cancer following First Line Platinum Based Chemotherapy.
Bevacizumab has been found to prolong progression free survival in first line, and more recently, in second line treatment for platinum sensitive ovarian cancer patients who had not received prior treatment with bevacizumab. Recently reported data suggest that patients with colon cancer who receive bevacizumab in more than one line of therapy (beyond progression) have better results. In ovarian cancer, the role of bevacizumab administered in both first and second-line therapies needs to be defined. This study aims to evaluate whether administering bevacizumab in combination with chemotherapy in second-line therapy to patients with recurrent ovarian cancer who have received first-line bevacizumab will be more effective than chemotherapy alone.
The addition of bevacizumab to first-line chemotherapy has been shown to improve progression free survival for patients with ovarian cancer. The purpose of this study is to explore the potential role of clinical and biologic factors in identifying those patients who benefit most from this combined therapy in terms of progression free and overall survival.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the role of secondary cytoreduction (SCR) and validate the risk model of patient selection criteria in platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer.
Older woman with ovarian cancer have a worse prognosis compared to younger patients. However, the reason is not known. Currently, the standard of care is to evaluate younger and older patients with cancer the same way. However, older patients with cancer often have more complicated issues to manage. For example, older patients often have other medical problems, take more medications, and be dependent on others for help and transportation. Too often, the medical team is unaware of these issues which can effect the patients care. The purpose of this study is to apply a set of questions designed specifically for patients with cancer who are older than 65 years of age. These questions are called a geriatric assessment. The investigators want to better understand which older patients with ovarian cancer will be able to tolerate the chemotherapy and surgery and why. This study will also see if a telephone call from a nurse who specializes in caring for older patients will improve patient care. This study will determine how feasible it is to perform geriatric assessments and telephone calls in patients with ovarian cancer.
The goal of this clinical research study is to see if ovarian cancer patients who add Juice PLus+ and Juice Plus+ Complete to their diets have better outcomes when compared to ovarian cancer patients who receive only dietary counseling alone.
CHIPOR hypothesis is that the adjunction of platinum HIPEC in first relapsed epithelial ovarian cancer is able to improve the median Overall Survival (OS) by 12 months. In that hypothesis, with alpha risk of 5%, a power beta of 80%, during a 3 years period of inclusion and a 3 years follow-up, the number of patients to include is 404. Taking into account a 10% failure, an overall number of 444 patients is required.
