Filter by:This clinical trial focuses on a nurse-led program that is designed to help patients cope with worries, fears, and uncertainty about the future. The purpose of this study is to understand if the program is helpful and practical to carry out at medical centers and community clinics. This study may help patients learn more effective ways to cope and respond to your concerns and any unhelpful thoughts.
The study evaluates the level and molecular profiles of different CTC populations as markers for predicting the risk of developing hematogenous metastases and the effectiveness of treatment in patients with tumors of the female reproductive system (breast cancer, endometrial cancer, and ovarian cancer). The primary objective are: 1. To assess the presence and number of different populations of CTCs at different time points (before biopsy, before surgery, and after surgery). 2. To assess the relationships of different CTCs populations prior to treatment initiation with the effects of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and the risks of recurrence and metastases. 3. To assess the molecular profiles of different CTCs populations in the blood and in ascitic fluid. The secondary objective is to compare the multicolor flow cytometry results with data of ultrasound, CT and/or MRI, serum tumor markers, and immunohistochemical studies in patients with breast cancer, endometrial cancer and ovarian cancer
It has been reported that antiangiogenic drugs combined with chemotherapy as first-line treatment, and subsequent antiangiogenic drugs as maintenance therapy for ovarian cancer can achieve better clinical benefits. Therefore, this study is expected to investigate the efficacy and safety of anlotinib combined with carboplatin/paclitaxel as first-line treatment in patients with advanced ovarian cancer.
This study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapy in patients with malignant refractory/relapsed gynecologic tumors. Autologous TILs are expanded from tumor resections or biopsies and infused i.v. into the patient after NMA lymphodepletion treatment with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide.
The Self-Testing options in the Era of Primary HPV screening for cervical cancer (STEP) trial will evaluate effectiveness of home-based HPV kits for improving cervical cancer screening uptake and its cost-effectiveness. The investigators will compare cervical cancer screening uptake within six months among women randomized to different outreach approaches based on prior screening behavior: A) Adherent and coming due: direct mail HPV kit vs. opt-in HPV kit vs. education; B) Overdue: direct mail HPV kit vs. education; C) Unknown: opt-in HPV kit vs. education.
This study will measure the efficacy of scalp cooling with the Paxman Scalp Cooling (PSC) device in a diverse patient population with success measured as prevention of more than 50% hair loss during chemotherapy. We propose that scalp cooling has distinct efficacy in participants with black or ethnic-minority hair types due to differences in textures, hair thickness. This study will examine the success rate of scalp cooling in black patients receiving chemotherapy for breast or gynecological cancer.
This phase III trial compares a home-based telemonitoring program that collects symptom and daily step information to surgeon only care in improving recovery and stopping complications within 30 days after surgery in patients with gastrointestinal, genitourinary, or gynecologic cancer who are scheduled to undergo abdominal surgery. Patients may experience a decrease in functional capacity and experience symptoms like pain and fatigue after surgery, and this may change their ability to walk and function. Home-based telemonitoring of patient symptoms and their ability to walk and function after surgery may help doctors and nurses find and treat problems early, which may improve the patient's recovery and lower the number of complications after surgery.
This study compares changes in brain waves in women with gynecologic cancers who have or have not received chemotherapy and who are scheduled to receive surgery as part of their standard care. Electroencephalography is a test that measures brain waves and may help learn if sensitivity to anesthesia is higher in women who have received chemotherapy than women who have not. This study may help researchers learn if receiving chemotherapy before surgery can affect the way the brain responds to anesthesia during and after surgery.
PARP inhibitors have changed the treatment paradigm of ovarian cancer. Most patients using PARP(poly-ADP ribose polymerase) inhibitors will suffer different grades of adverse events(AEs), followed by dose reduction. It has not been reported whether the dose-reduced olaparib as maintenance treatment have an impact on efficacy. Both PAOLA-1 and AVANOVA 2 studies showed that combined PARP inhibitors and antiangiogenic drugs have synergistic anti-tumor effect. Anlotinib is a novel multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitor that can inhibit VEGFR(vascular endothelial growth factor receptor), FGFR(fibroblast growth factor receptor), PDGFR(platelet-derived growth factor receptor) α/β, c-Kit, and Ret. And anlotinib has been approved as orphan drug designations for treatment of ovarian cancer by FDA in 2015. Previous studies showed that anlotinib had manageable toxicity and promising antitumor effect. Our study is expected to investigate the efficacy and safety of anlotinib combined with dose-reduced olaparib as maintenance treatment in platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer patients.
Niraparib is an oral, potent and highly selective PARP1/2 inhibitor. It can be used as a single drug in HRD positive ovarian cancer patients for multi-line therapy. Bevacizumab is a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody that inhibits tumor angiogenesis and is also recommended for the treatment of recurrent ovarian cancer. Clinical studies showed that niraparib combined with bevacizumab could significantly prolong progression free survival of platinum sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer. We intend to conduct a single-arm, prospective, open-label, phase II study to observe the efficacy and safety of niraparib combined with bevacizumab in the treatment of FIGO III/IV platinum refractory/resistant ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer and primary peritoneal cancer. The results are expected to provide more effective and precise treatment for platinum resistant recurrent/refractory ovarian cancer patients.
