Ovarian cancer is the most lethal malignancy of the female genital tract. Cytoreductive surgery combined with chemotherapy is the primary treatment for ovarian cancer, and radical tumor resection is an important means to improve the prognosis. However, even after complete tumor resection, 75% of patients with ovarian cancer still recur within 3 years after the initial treatment and eventually die from recurrence. In ovarian cancer, the lesions are located primarily in the peritoneal cavity. High-grade evidence demonstrates that the use of intraperitoneal hyperthermic chemotherapy (HIPEC) with cisplatin after cytoreductive surgery significantly improves the outcome in some patients with ovarian cancer. Currently, this is the only non-pharmacologic treatment that reduces both the risk of recurrence and death from ovarian cancer with a multi treatment. However, HIPEC with cisplatin can lead to acute kidney injury, and a serious complication that can seriously affect the short and long-term prognosis of patients. Sodium thiosulfate has previously been reported to reduce the incidence of acute kidney injury after HIPEC with cisplatin, but this finding has not been confirmed in a high-level study. Therefore, we propose a multi-center, prospective, open-label, randomized, controlled trial including 110 patients with ovarian cancer who received HIPEC with cisplatin, to evaluate whether sodium thiosulfate combined with hydration (55 patients in the trial group) can reduce the incidence of acute kidney injury after HIPEC with cisplatin compared with hydration alone (55 patients in the control group), and to provide high-level evidence for the rationale of using sodium thiosulfate for nephrotoxicity relief in cisplatin HIPEC.
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is a highly angiogenic tumor and drug targeting of angiogenesis is effective in some selected groups of EOC patients. However, no biomarkers are available to predict the effectiveness of this expensive therapy.Investigators believe that Multimerin-2, an extracellular matrix molecule, could serve as a biomarker that can address this clinical need. Multimerin-2 is deposited throughout the vasculature and its expression in EOC-associated vessels is frequently lost, in part due to increased degradation. Multimerin-2 sequesters VEGFA and other angiogenic factors and their release upon degradation of Multimerin-2 could underlie resistance to anti-angiogenic therapy. Indeed, fragments of degradation of Multimerin-2 are found in high concentrations in sera of EOC patients. Furthermore, the loss of Multimerin-2 impairs the function of the vessels, and this could negatively affect the delivery of the drug and the efficacy of the treatment. With the aim of predicting the efficiency of anti-angiogenic therapy, researchers will evaluate the angiogenic properties and expression of Multimerin-2 in EOC tumors, and develop a new Multimerin-2-based biomarker detectable by liquid biopsy, in order to manage EOC patients in a targeted manner based on the biological characteristics of their tumor.
A Phase 2/3 study to investigate the efficacy and safety of luveltamab tazevibulin versus IC chemotherapy in women with ovarian cancer (including fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancers) expressing FOLR1.
The median age at which ovarian cancer is diagnosed is 63 years (50-75). This is still a significant adverse factor for survival results. Seventy years can be considered the lower limit for the elderly term, since most of age-related changes occur later. Because of this, this group of patients is often not included in clinical trials and sometimes they do not receive adequate treatment. Little information is available on chemotherapy treatments in elderly patients. Data on the use of first-line chemotherapy in this population have recently been published. Trabectedin in combination with PLD is indicated for platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer and is an option for those patients in whom platinum is not the best option. There are some studies with trabectedin in combination with PLD in which some patients with this profile have been included, although not exclusively. Therefore, it is of interest to study the safety and efficacy profile of this treatment in elderly patients. With this information we will be able to know its real use in routine clinical practice at the national level in Spain in this population for which not much information is available. Safety and efficacy data (e.g. PFS, ORR, OS) will be collected retrospectively in order to draw conclusions about the combination of trabectedin + PLD, as a treatment option in this patient profile.
To learn if an MRSI can be performed on a 3T scanner using an investigational contrast drug called hyperpolarized 13-C pyruvate. 3T refers to the "strength" of the MRI machine.
ULTRA-LAP is a prospective study is to investigate the safety, efficacy and feasibility of laparoscopic debulking surgery (LDS) for the treatment of patients with advanced ovarian cancer. The outcomes to measure are: - Safety: the rate of patients experiencing intra- and post-operative early and late morbidities (within the hospitalization and up to 60 days from surgery) - Efficacy: the rate of patients in which the surgical target set pre-operatively (complete resection) is achieved by laparoscopy. - Feasibility: the rate of patients who have their procedure completed by laparoscopy Patients will undergo laparoscopic debulking surgery (LDS) if the surgical target can be met. If it cannot be achieved by laparoscopy the surgeon will convert to laparotomy.
Data from niraparib treatment is not available in real-world setting in Latin America. The present study aims to collect data from patients treated with niraparib within the Latin America Expanded Access Program (EAP) in clinical practice in Brazil and Argentina and who meet the eligibility criteria for this study, without additional intervention.
This is a prospective study to investigate the potential efficacy of 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT for recurrence detection of epithelial ovarian cancer in comparison with 18F-FDG PET/CT.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the added diagnostic and prognostic value of advanced medical imaging procedures in cervical cancer, endometrial cancer and ovarian cancer. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does advanced medical imaging predict survival? - Can advanced medical imaging improve radiotherapy target planning? - Are advanced medical imaging results associated with risk markers found in tumor tissue? Participants will - Undergo four additional imaging procedures, as compared to clinical routine examinations, two at baseline and two after three months. - Be subject to clinical follow-up for five years.
