Filter by:A pragmatic, two armed, study comparing 2 standard doses of an anti-cancer drug called bevacizumab, given in combination with Chemotherapy. The study will be offered to ovarian cancer patients whose disease is platinum chemotherapy resistant . Higher doses of anti-cancer based drugs are not always better than lower doses and can cause more side effects without improvement of cancer. These patients will be randomly assigned either 7.5 mg/kg or 15mg/kg of bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy . Comparing these two doses will determine if the lower dose-level is non-inferior, and could lead to practice changes.
PARP inhibitors are most effective in homologous recombinant (HR) deficient tumors. There are clear indications that besides BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutated EOC, there is an additional group of EOC having deficiencies in HR (i.e. BRCAness) that might benefit from treatment with PARP inhibitors. Assessment of HR in high grade EOC might therefore serve as a better predictive biomarker and allow the identification of a larger group of patients that could benefit most from platinum based chemotherapy and maintenance treatment with a PARP inhibitor. We recently developed a robust ex vivo functional assay (RAD51 assay;) to test HR in viable tumor tissue. In the proposed study, we will evaluate whether the RAD51 assay predicts sensitivity to therapy with olaparib, in patients with recurrent EOC. With the RAD51 assay we aim to identify a larger number of patients who will benefit from treatment with the PARP inhibitor olaparib than patients with a germline or somatic BRCA mutation only. Furthermore, we aim to identify molecular markers (including genomic markers) that are associated with the outcome of the RAD51 assay. Finally, we will explore whether these molecular markers can be measured in liquid biopsies by analysing ctDNA.
This is a monocentric prospective observational pilot study of translational research in women with advanced ovarian epithelial cancer. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the predictive value of response to treatment with bevacizumab of the circulating levels of Ang1, Tie2 and VEGF before start of therapy. Secondary aims of the study are to explore the predictive value of response / resistance to bevacizumab of changes in circulating levels of Ang1 and Tie2 during treatment and at progression of disease, and to explore the possible role of circulating VEGF in the modulation of bioavailability of bevacizumab.
The tumor organoids platform can provide the precise genetic information and phenotype, as well as the heterogeneity of the tumor, thus provide information on drug sensitivity specific to the patient.This is an exploratory research to see if organoids testing could help guide precision treatment for ovarian cancer(OC) patients.
EFFECTS OF CYTOTOXIC CHEMOTHERAPY AND PARP INHIBITION ON THE GENOMIC CONTEXTURE OF OVARIAN CANCER: TR_NACT_OV/17 In order to approach the above open questions, ultimately aiming in understanding the effects of cancer drugs on tumor biology and hence in selecting the proper drugs for the patients in the context of Precision Medicine, the objective of this study is to study the genomic characteristics of ovarian tumors before and after treatment with classic neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) and with the more recently approved PARP inhibitor olaparib.
This study was designed to assess the safety and efficacy of neoadjuvant therapy with mitomycin C plus cisplatin (MP) in BRCA1-mutated ovarian cancer versus standard regimen (paclitaxel plus carboplatin (TP)).
This prospective, multicenter, open-label, randomized phase II maintenance study is evaluating the efficacy of UV1-olaparib-durvalumab combination as maintenance therapy after platinum combination therapy for BRCAwt patients with relapsed ovarian cancer.
This study is phase II, open label, clinical trial to determine the efficacy of Niraparib re-treatment with Bevacizumab of assessment progression-free survival(6 months PFS rate) with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer patients previously treated with a PARP inhibitor.
The study is a prospective, single-arm, open label, exploratory phase 2 clinical trial, which aims to study the therapeutic effect of letrozole combined with anlotinib hydrochloride in platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer.
The aim of the study to evaluate the feasibility and accuracy of sentinel lymph node technique in ovarian cancer.
