Filter by:Afuresertib is an AKT inhibitor, a new class of agents under development that may provide physicians with a new clinical option to control platinum resistant ovarian cancer (PROC) progression. Afuresertib plus chemotherapy has demonstrated anti-tumor efficacy and an acceptable safety profile in patients with PROC in a published Phase I/II study. Therefore, the combination of afuresertib plus weekly paclitaxel could represent a clinically meaningful step forward in the clinical management of these difficult-to-treat patients with PROC.
Epithelial ovarian cancer is the most fatal gynecological malignancy. Despite initial therapeutic response, the majority of advanced-stage patients relapse and eventually succumb to chemoresistant disease. The prognosis of patients with platinum-resistant or refractory ovarian cancer was very poor, with the response rate of 20%~25% after chemotherapy. The purpose of treatment for recurrent ovarian cancer is mainly to improve the quality of life of patients and prolong survival. Angiogenesis is essential for tumor growth and metastasis.And VEGF/VEGF receptor(VEGFR) signaling pathway is the most promising angiogenic target due to its key roles in angiogenesis and tumor growth.This study sought to assess the efficacy and safety of the combination therapy of apatinib and PLD, clarifying whether combination therapy could improve the outcomes of patients with platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer.
This is a multicenter, randomized, blinded, 3-arm Phase 3 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Fluzoparib alone or with Apatinib versus Placebo, as maintenance treatment, in patients with Stage III or IV ovarian cancer. Patients must have completed first-line platinum based regimen with Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR). The study contains a Safety Lead-in Phase in which the safety and tolerability of Fluzoparib+Apatinib will be assessed prior to the Phase 3 portion of the study.
MAMOC is a multicenter, randomized, placebo controlled, double blind study including BRCA negative patients with histologically confirmed, advanced (FIGO stage IIIA, IIIB, IIIC, or IV of the 2014 FIGO classification) high grade serous or high grade endometrioid (based on local histopathological findings) ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, primary peritoneal cancer and clear cell carcinoma of the ovary in first line therapy.
This Phase 3 study is designed to compare the efficacy and safety of mirvetuximab soravtansine vs. investigator's choice chemotherapy in patients with platinum-resistant high-grade epithelial ovarian cancer, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer, whose tumors express a high-level of FRα. Patients will be, in the opinion of the Investigator, appropriate for single-agent therapy for their next line of therapy. Folate receptor alpha (FRα) positivity will be defined by the Ventana FOLR1 (FOLR1-2.1) CDx assay.
The purpose of this study is evaluate whether a prehabilitation program is feasible and useful for women with advanced ovarian cancer receiving chemotherapy in preparation for debulking surgery.
A recent study at the Department of Oncology, Vejle Hospital (NCT02399592), investigated bevacizumab and tocotrienol in ovarian cancer patients and concurrently monitored the level of methylated HOXA9 circulating tumor DNA (HOXA9 meth-ctDNA) in the blood. The rate of disease control was 70% with better results than other studies using bevacizumab alone. The toxicity was very low and attributed to bevacizumab only. When the study results were worked up they showed that patients with a significant increase of HOXA9 meth-ctDNA after the first cycle of treatment did not benefit from the treatment whereas those with stable or decreasing HOXA9 meth-ctDNA did. Therefore, in the current study patients with a high increase of HOXA9 meth-ctDNA after the first treatment cycle will discontinue treatment, as it is then considered ineffective. The remaining patients may achieve prolonged survival as predicted by their level of HOXA9 meth-ctDNA.
Surgery and chemotherapy combined constitute first line treatment in women with advanced ovarian cancer. The aim of surgery apart from staging is cytoreduction, i.e. surgical resection of tumour. Radical resection of all tumour visible by the naked eye followed by adjuvant chemotherapy is associated with best chance of prolonged survival. However, because of tumour dissemination in the peritoneal cavity, radical surgery is often very extensive with surgery in all quadrants of the abdomen and multi-organ resection with substantial risk of postoperative severe complications and subsequent delay in administration of adjuvant chemotherapy. Longer time-interval between surgery to start of adjuvant chemotherapy has been associated with decrease in survival. Surgery presents opportunities not only for eradicating tumours but, paradoxically, also for proliferation and invasion of residual cancer cells. It increases the shedding of malignant cells into the blood and lymphatic circulations, inhibits their apoptosis and potentiates their invasion capacity. Additionally, the immune system, the inflammatory system and the neuroendocrine system react to surgery with important changes, which have been proven to promote progression of cancer. Several anaesthesia-related factors play an important role in perioperative tumorigenesis such as inhalational anaesthetics, opiate analgesics, local anaesthetics and regional anaesthesia, all of which may impact short-term morbidity and long-term mortality. A previous randomized placebo-controlled pilot study suggests that women who receive local anesthetics intraperitoneally preoperatively have a significantly decreased time-interval to initiation of adjuvant chemotherapy. In a prospective, randomised, multi-centre study, we plan to further assess if intraperitoneal local anaesthetics administered perioperatively during 72 h leads to early start of chemotherapy compared to placebo in patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery for FIGO stage III-IV ovarian cancer.
This research study is evaluating a new type of vaccine called "Personalized NeoAntigen Cancer Vaccine" in combination with Nivolumab (Opdivo®) for ovarian cancer.
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.
