Filter by:The biological spatial and temporal heterogeneity of High Grade Serous Ovarian Carcinoma (HGSOC) severely impacts the effectiveness of therapies and is a determinant of poor outcomes. Current histological evaluation is made on a single tumour sample from a single disease site per patient thus ignoring molecular heterogeneity at the whole-tumour level, key for understanding and overcoming chemotherapy resistance. Imaging can play a crucial role in the development of personalised treatments by fully capturing the disease's heterogeneity. Radiomics quantify the image information by capturing complex patterns related to the tissue microstructure. This information can be complemented with clinical data, liquid biopsies, histological markers and genomics ("radiogenomics") potentially leading to a better prediction of treatment response and outcome. However, the extracted quantitative features usually represent the entire tumour, ignoring the spatial context. On the other hand, radiomics-derived imaging habitats characterize morphologically distinct tumour areas and are more appropriate for monitoring the changes in the tumour microenvironment over the course of therapy. In order to successfully incorporate the habitat-imaging approach to the clinic, histological and biological validation are crucial. However, histological validation of imaging is not a trivial task, due to issues such as unmatched spatial resolution, tissue deformations, lack of landmarks and imprecise cutting. Patient-specific three-dimensional (3D) moulds are an innovative tool for accurate co-registration between imaging and histology. The aim of this study is to optimize and integrate such an automated computational 3D-mould co-registration approach in the clinical work-flow in patients with HGSOC. The validated radiomics-based tumour habitats will also be used to guide tissue sampling to decipher their underlying biology using genomics analysis and explore novel prediction markers.
The goal of this research study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the use of cytokine-induced memory-like (CIML) natural killer (NK) cell therapy combined with IL-15 superagonist (N-803) in recurrent, high grade ovarian cancer (HGOC). Names of the study therapies involved in this study are: - CIML NK (cellular therapy) - N-803 (a novel immune-cell stimulator)
Ovarian cancer (OC) has one of the highest mortality rates for female malignant tumors, attributed to advanced cancer stages upon diagnosis as well as a high recurrence rate. Piwi-interacting RNA-823 (piR-823) is a single-stranded non-protein coding RNA (ncRNA) star molecule in epigenetics research. Extensive cellular regulatory functions and aberrant expression of piR-823 have been implicated in carcinogenesis. Therefore, the findings of piwi-ncRNA dysregulated-expression in OC Egyptian female patients' cohort could be employed as a potential novel mechanism for OC precision, a step toward ncRNA-precision
The present study aims to collect early bright field image of patient-derived organoids with ovarian cancer. By leveraging artificial intelligence, this study will seek to construct and refine algorithms that able to predict growth of ovarian cancer organoids.
Solid tumors pose significant challenges in current therapeutic approaches. Targeted therapy has emerged as a promising avenue, aiming to enhance treatment efficacy while minimizing adverse effects. This clinical trial focuses on an innovative combination of two targeted inhibitors, Palbociclib and Bevacizumab, for their potential synergistic effects in addressing these challenging malignancies. Moreover, this study incorporates a molecular approach by considering Long Non-Coding RNAs (LncRNAs) as biomarkers. Initiating with a focus on colorectal cancer, the study aims to expand its scope to other solid tumors, including lung, breast, ovarian and other cancers. Palbociclib, a cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor, disrupts the cell cycle progression, particularly in cancer cells with specific molecular characteristics. Bevacizumab, a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitor, targets angiogenesis-a critical process for tumor growth and metastasis. The rationale behind combining these agents lies in their complementary mechanisms of action, potentially leading to enhanced antitumor effects. LncRNAs have shown promise in predicting treatment response and prognosis in various cancers, providing an additional layer of precision to the treatment strategy. By elucidating the molecular basis through LncRNA analysis, the trial aims to tailor the treatment to the specific molecular profile of each patient, ultimately striving for better outcomes and improved survival rates. This novel combination therapy, coupled with a personalized biomarker-driven approach, represents a cutting-edge strategy in the pursuit of more effective and individualized treatment for solid tumors.
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and tolerability of using a new treatment called autologous T lymphocyte chimeric antigen receptor cells against the B7-H3 antigen (iC9-CAR.B7-H3 T cells) in patients with ovarian cancer that came back after receiving standard therapy for this cancer. The iC9.CAR.B7-H3 treatment is experimental and has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration. The study team wants to know how much (dose) of the iC9-CAR.B7-H3 T cells are safe to use in patients without causing too many side effects and what is the maximum dose could be tolerated. There are two parts to this study. In part 1, approximately blood will be collected from subjects to prepare the iC9.CAR.B7-H3 T cells. The study team will collect disease-fighting T cells from the blood and modify them to prepare the iC9.CAR.B7-H3 T cells. In part 2, the iC9.CAR.B7-H3 T cells will be given to eligible subjects by infusion three days after completion of lymphodepletion chemotherapy.
The main objective of this prospective study is to assess the clinical outcomes of platinum based chemotherapy cases either cisplatin or carboplatin according to BRCA status in neoadjuvant and recurrent ovarian cancer.
The purpose of this multicentric, open label trial (NAPISTAR 1-01) is to evaluate the safety/tolerability, pharmacokinetics and preliminary efficacy of TUB-040 and to find the best dose of TUB-040 in patients with ovarian cancer and Non Small Cell Lung Cancer. TUB-040 is an antibody-drug-conjugate which delivers a topoisomerase I inhibitor to tumor cells which overexpress the target NaPi2b. The study consists of two parts: In dose escalation, ovarian cancer patients and lung cancer patients receive increasing doses of TUB-040 until the maximal tolerated dose is found. In dose optimization, at least two doses are compared with each other to determine which dose is optimal for patients. TUB-040 is given IV every 3 weeks until the disease progresses or the patient has to stop due to side effects.
This is a first-in-human, open-label, multi-center, Phase 1, dose-escalation study with expansion cohorts to evaluate NM32-2668 for safety and immunogenicity, to determine the maximal tolerated dose and recommended Phase 2 dose, define the pharmacokinetics, to explore the pharmacodynamics, and to obtain preliminary evidence of the clinical activity in adult patients with selected advanced solid tumors.
Complete macroscopic surgical resection (CMR) requires extensive surgery and combined with chemotherapy confers best chance of survival in advanced ovarian cancer. During cytoreductive surgery 11% of women require a temporary diverting intestinal stoma. Unexpectedly, our results from a unique fully accounted for population demonstrate that survival was not improved when increasing the proportion of women in whom CMR was achieved and in a yet unidentified subgroup of women extensive surgery was detrimental. In these women surgical treatment should be omitted in favor of chemotherapy only. Accordingly, there is an imperative need to improve patient selection to surgical treatment. In Sweden, we treat an unselected population of women in a public healthcare system, where 30% of women with are >75 years. Despite these circumstances guidelines on patient-selection are lacking. Age is an imprecise variable to base clinical decisions on but must be considered with an aging population. The dynamics between physiological changes of aging, comorbidity and medical condition are included in the concept of frailty, that has gained little attention in oncology, despite their potential to stratify risk and mortality. The FOLERO study is a prospective adequately powered national cohort study with aim to determine if frailty instruments may be used to select patient to surgical treatment. In addition, we test the feasibility of early stoma reversal after index cytoreductive surgery in a small phase I trial and follow our patients Health Related Quality of Life after state of the art surgical treatment.
