Filter by:Background: Tumors that have spread to the lining of the abdomen from other cancers, such as cancer of the appendix, colon, or ovary, are called peritoneal carcinomatosis. In most cases, outcomes are poor. Researchers want to test a new treatment. Objective: To learn if the combination of oral nilotinib plus paclitaxel given by IV and directly into the abdomen can reduce tumors enough for people to have surgery. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 and older with peritoneal carcinomatosis that is too widespread for surgery. Design: Participants will be screened with: Physical exam Medical history Blood and urine tests Electrocardiogram Laparoscopy. They will get general anesthesia. Small cuts will be made in their abdomen. Tissue and fluid samples will be taken. Surveys about their health CT scans of their torso Participants will have up to 4 more laparoscopies. During the first procedure, a port will be placed under the skin of their abdomen (an IP port). It will be attached to a catheter that is placed in their abdomen. Participants will get treatment in 3-week cycles, for 3 or 6 cycles. They will take nilotinib by mouth twice daily. They will get paclitaxel by IP port (once per cycle) and by IV (twice per cycle). After cycles 3 and 6, they will have a laparoscopy and CT scans. Then they may take nilotinib and get IV paclitaxel for up to 1 year. At study visits, participants will repeat some screening tests. About 6 weeks after treatment ends and then every 3 months for 3 years, participants will have follow-up visits at NIH or with their local doctor.
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) diagnosed in the initial stage (stage I-II) require complete staging surgery to histologically assess the possible existence of peritoneal or lymph node disease. Systematic pelvic and paraaortic lymphadenectomy in stage I-II EOC is essential since confirming the presence of lymph node metastases means re-staging the disease as stage III. This change of stage has important prognostic and therapeutic implications. However, the lymph node involvement rate is around 10-30% (average of 15%). Systematic pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy carries a risk of intraoperative complications, as well as longer operative time, postoperative complications and longer hospital stay. Moreover, by now there is no evidence suggesting a possible therapeutic value. The sentinel lymph node (SLN) detects the first level of lymph node drainage. The absence of metastases in the SLN predicts the absence of tumor infiltration of the rest of lymph nodes of the same anatomical region and allows to safely avoid lymphadenectomy and its associated morbidity. In addition, the exhaustive evaluation of the SLN by ultrastaging and immunohistochemical study allows to increase the detection of microscopic disease. Sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy, implemented in clinical practice in other gynecological tumors (breast, vulva, cervix or endometrium), has been studied very little in the initial ovarian epithelial cancer. Unlike other gynecological tumors, there are multiple anatomical and technical aspects that largely explain this lack of information. The double ovarian vascularization that accompanies lymphatic drainage explains this higher complexity. Therefore, at the present time, the detection of SLN in the initial EOC remains an experimental area without applicability in clinical practice. There are multiple doubts and issues to be resolved regarding the different tracers, the site and time injection and the actual accuracy of the SLN versus the lymphadenectomy.
Randomized, open label, phase II multicenter study to assess the efficacy niraparib versus niraparib +bevacizumab maintenance in patients with newly diagnosed stage IIIA/B/C high-grade epithelial ovarian cancer with no residual disease after frontline surgery and treatment by adjuvant platinum-basedchemotherapy +/-bevacizumab.
This is an open-label, dose escalation study of the safety and tolerability of Recombinant oncolytic adenovirus L-IFN injection（YSCH-01） when administered via intratumoral injection in patients with advanced solid tumors. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of Recombinant L-IFN adenovirus injectionand to determine the recommended phase 1 dose for further study. The study will also evaluate antitumor activity, objective response rate, pharmacokinetics and virus shedding of Recombinant L-IFN adenovirus injection
Observational study that will be collecting clinical and molecular health information from cancer patients who have received comprehensive genomic profiling and meet the specific eligibility criteria outlined for each cohort with the goal of conducting research to advance cancer care and create a dataset that furthers cancer research.
This is a single-center, observational clinical study that plans to recruit 64 ovarian cancer patients within one year. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the consistency and accuracy of the organoid model derived from patients with ovarian cancer and the patient's clinical medication, so as to predict the clinical efficacy of anti-cancer drugs
In women with an ovarian tumor, it is often unclear whether the tumor is benign or malignant. To differentiate, tumor markers (CA125 and CEA), a transvaginal ultrasound and, depending on the ultrasound image and the CA125 concentration, a CT scan are performed. The quality of radiological imaging in diagnosing abdominal pathology is often not accurate enough, making additional interventions no-dig for proper classification and interpretation of the tumor. Objective: To improve accuracy for distinguishing benign from malignant disease in patients presenting with an ovarian mass by using a computer aided detection algorithm.
This study was designed to explore the safety and efficacy of Bevacizumab combined with Fluzoparib, Bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy or Fluzoparib monotherapy in patients with platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer.
The primary purpose of this study is to compare three interventions, two experimental and one standard of care (usual care), to see if the experimental interventions will increase the likelihood of a participant obtaining guideline-concordant genetic testing. Eligible participants will be randomized (assigned) to one of the following interventions: 1) Virtual genetics navigator, a mobile-optimized website, designed by the investigators, that delivers tailored messages and content; 2) two motivational interviewing (MI) telephone calls delivered by trained genetics health coaches; or 3) usual care.
The study's purpose is to understand the effects of a new treatment (suba-itraconazole and tamoxifen) in epithelial ovarian cancer. Who is it for? Patients may be eligible to join this study with ovarian cancer resistant to platinum-based chemotherapy agents Study Details: Participants will receive different doses of tamoxifen and suba-itraconazole to determine the optimal combination dose. Participants will be seen by the investigators once a week for the first 3 weeks and then once every 4 weeks. Participant will be reviewed by a clinician and undergo regular blood tests, cardiac monitoring and imaging assessments.
