Filter by:This phase II trial studies how well pembrolizumab works when given in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel in treating patients with stage III-IV ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, 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 pembrolizumab in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel may be a better treatment for ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well nivolumab works with or without ipilimumab in treating patients with epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer that has not responded after prior treatment (persistent) or has come back (recurrent). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
This is an observational and sample collection study involving patients (alive or deceased) from several clinical trials who had received the investigational drug, olaparib in other research studies. There is no intervention given for this study. This research is being done to understand of the mechanisms involved in patients whose cancer responds well and whose cancer does not respond well to investigational drug, olaparib, to help better understand how olaparib works and to better identify patients who may benefit from this therapy.
This is a study that will look at the effects and how useful investigational drug olaparib is as a neoadjuvant treatment (treatment given as to shrink a tumor before the main treatment) prior to surgery in patients with recurrent ovarian, primary peritoneal or fallopian tube cancer.
The combination of optimal cytoreductive operation (according to Desktop II criteria), HIPEC with Carboplatin 800 mg/m² KOF (Körperoberfläche) and following platinum-based systemic chemotherapy should be executed In patients with platinum-sensitive recurrence of ovarian carcinoma. Condition for HIPEC is attainment of optimal cytoreduction (R0) and experts judgement of a complication-free prolongation of narcosis after finishing the surgery. HIPEC will be administered additionally to standard therapy. If HIPEC was executed the number of systemic given platinum-based chemotherapy decreases for one cycle. This regime should be investigated in terms of safety of performance, quality of life for the patients and consequences for the following systemic chemotherapy.
This dose escalation study will determine a maximum tolerated dose and/or optimal biological dose of GEN-1 for carboplatin/paclitaxel combination in newly diagnosed ovarian cancer.
The presence of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes involved in platinum and taxane metabolism and detoxification have been correlated to increased risk of severe adverse events (AEs) when patients receive these drugs. The investigators propose studies to validate a comprehensive panel of twelve SNPs in ovarian cancer patients that may predict AEs when treated with therapies that include platinum and taxanes. Using these results to stratify patients to different dosing regimens, routes of administration, or in recurrent cancer to aid in drug selection, may improve outcome and reduce costs for the management of drug related side effects while not changing standard of care. Since these differences can be detected from blood, the determination of genotypes can be done using a standard blood sample taken after ovarian cancer is confirmed on the patient's pathology report. These genetic differences can be detected by QPCR and Next Generation Sequencing.
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.
There is a move towards personalized medicine in cancer care, and significant effort is underway to evaluate new targeted therapeutics for the treatment of ovarian cancer. One way to identify potential new drug targets is by screening a drug library to determine whether drugs in the library target key kinase or enzymatic sites in cellular signaling pathways. Previous preclinical work and pilot studies demonstrated that ketorolac (a type of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) inhibits GTPase activity in ovarian cancer cells retrieved from the post-operative peritoneal cavity. The purpose of this study is to confirm that this inhibitory effect is ketorolac driven and not a specific effect of the post-operative peritoneal compartment.
This is a randomized pilot trial to test the addition of 2 investigational agents, Montanide and poly-ICLC (a TLR3 agonist) to a backbone of autologous oxidized tumor cell lysate vaccine (OC-L) administered with GMCSF in subjects with primary epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.
