Filter by:Improving current strategies for detection of early stage disease can impact favorably on long-term survival of women with ovarian cancer. To reduce the morbidity and mortality of ovarian cancer, screening for this disease must detect early stage disease rather than advanced stage disease. Thus the challenge for the future is to identify and develop highly sensitive and specific tumor markers that can be applied to population-based screening for the early detection of ovarian cancer.
This multi-institutional phase I/II clinical trial will test the tolerability and efficacy of the combination sorafenib and topotecan in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer, which is platinum-resistant (recurrence within 6 months from completing platinum based therapy) or refractory (progressive disease during platinum based therapy).
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if giving Avastin (bevacizumab) with standard chemotherapy and a blood stem cell transplant, in patients with an advanced solid tumor, can help to shrink the tumor or slow its growth. The safety of this treatment will also be studied.
RATIONALE: Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well sorafenib works in treating patients with ovarian epithelial cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or peritoneal cancer in at least the second remission.
To evaluate the efficacy of voloxicimab when administered at 15 mg/kg qwk in subjects with platinum-resistant, advanced epithelial ovarian cancer or primary peritoneal cancer.
Primary Objectives: - To determine the objective response rate of Letrozole when administered to patients with advanced or recurrent borderline tumors or low-grade epithelial cancers from the ovary , fallopian tube or peritoneum. - To determine the time to tumor progression of patients with advanced or recurrent borderline tumors or low-grade epithelial cancers from the ovary, fallopian tube or peritoneum. - To identify the biological markers to predict response to Letrozole and study the aspects of the hormones in these types of tumors.
Primary Objectives: - To evaluate the effect of glufosfamide on the serum concentrations of CA125 in subjects with ovarian cancer - To evaluate the safety of weekly glufosfamide dosing in subjects with ovarian cancer as compared with every 21-day dosing Secondary objectives: - To evaluate the efficacy of glufosfamide in subjects with ovarian cancer as measured by objective response rate, duration of response, progression-free survival, and overall survival - To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of glufosfamide and isophosphoramide mustard during and after treatment Exploratory objective: - To correlate efficacy endpoints with expression of tumor-associated glucose transporter proteins
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the benefit of vaccination with Abagovomab, an experimental immunotherapy in ovarian cancer patients. The benefit will be evaluated in terms of time the remission status is kept as well as prolongation of life expectancy.
The main purpose of this study is to begin to collect information and try to learn whether or not the combination of oxaliplatin, gemcitabine and bevacizumab works in treating women with recurrent mullerian carcinoma. We will also collect more information about the safety and side effects of this combination of drugs. Gemcitabine and oxaliplatin are chemotherapy drugs that kill cancer cells. Bevacizumab is a new anti-cancer drug that works to slow or stop cell growth in cancerous tumors by decreasing the blood supply to the tumors.
The primary objective is to determine whether the addition of bevacizumab to a regimen of carboplatin plus paclitaxel significantly improves Progression Free Survival (PFS) for patient with Stage III suboptimally cytoreduced or Stage IV ovarian, primary peritoneal or fallopian tube carcinomas.
