Filter by:The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence of distress, anxiety and psychosexual anguish in patients diagnosed with borderline ovarian tumor (BOT) compared to controls confronted with surgical treatment for benign ovarian tumors.
Removing in situ and metastasis lesions completely during gynecological surgery is central to reduce the recurrence and death, and the identification of lesions in traditional gynecological surgery often depends on the experience of surgeons. The identification of nerves is often needed in gynecological surgery, such as the obturator nerves in pelvic lymphadenectomy, and the pelvic autonomic nerves in nerve-sparing radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer. Nerve identification also relies heavily on the experience of surgeons. This project aims to realize the identification of lesions and nerves under the navigation of indocyanine green fluorescent imaging, and evaluate the accuracy of fluorescent imaging of lesions and the effectiveness of nerves identification by near-infrared imaging. This project may reduce the recurrence or death caused by residual lesions and postoperative dysfunction caused by nerves injury, thus, improve the survival rate and quality of life for patients with gynecological diseases.
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of niraparib combined with oral etoposide in platinum resistant or platinum refractory recurrent ovarian cancer.
This early phase I trial studies how well heated intra-peritoneal chemotherapy with doxorubicin and cisplatin work for the treatment of abdominal or pelvic tumors that can be removed by surgery (resectable), does not respond to treatment (refractory), or has come back (recurrent). Heated intra-peritoneal chemotherapy is a procedure performed in combination with abdominal surgery for cancer that has spread to the abdomen. It involves the infusion of a heated chemotherapy solution that circulates into the abdominal cavity. Chemotherapy drugs, such as doxorubicin and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Heating a chemotherapy solution and infusing it directly into the abdomen may kill more cells.
Little is known about the characteristics of genetic mutation in a large multi-gene panel in epithelial ovarian cancer. This study is to explore the targeted genetic mutations via a multi-gene panel, which consists of more than 500 hundred genes. The mutation characteristics are to be revealed in single nucleotide variants, copy number variations, insertion-deletion variations, and genomic structural variations. The total mutation burden (TMB) will be calculated. The status of microsatellite instability, expression of PD-1 and PD-L1 antibodies are also tested. These findings will be studies in association with the patients' prognosis and sensitivity to platinum-based chemotherapy.
The homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) status in Chinese population with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is little known. This study would recruit 1300 Chinese EOC patients. A multi-panel testing of 36 genes would be given for these patients in their peripheral blood and tumor tissues. These 36 genes include: BRCA1, BRCA2, ABRAXAS1(FAM175A）, ATM, ATR, BAP1, BARD1, BRIP1, C11ORF30（EMSY）, CDK12, CHEK1, CHEK2, FANCA, FANCC, FANCD2, FANCI, FANCL, MRE11A, NBN, PALB2, PPP2R2A, PTEN, RAD50, RAD51B, RAD51C, RAD51D, RAD54B, RAD54, MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2, EPCAM, STK11, TP53, CDH1. The study would select 150 patients with pathogenic or likely pathogenic mutations in BRCA1/2 and 150 patients without these mutations to further explore the HRD status. The HRD model is based on the loss of heterozygosity (LOH), telomere allele imbalance (TAI) and large-scale state transitions (LST). The mutated genes, HRD score model and their relationship with the prognosis, would provide a full description of for the Chinese EOC patients.
Background: Ovarian cysts are common in women. The vast majority is benign; yet, ovarian cancer (OC) is seen in 500 women every year in Denmark. OC is often diagnosed in advanced stages, and OC is the fifth most deadly cancer in women in more developed countries. It can be a clinical challenge to distinguish benign ovarian cysts from OC. Currently, the Risk of Malignancy Index (RMI) is used to detect women at high risk of OC in Denmark, however, new methods to correctly differentiate benign ovarian cysts from OC at an early stage is needed. New promising studies suggest an improved diagnostic accuracy by adding the biomarker Human Epididymis Protein 4 (HE4) and systemized ultrasound imaging International Ovarian Tumor Analysis (IOTA). Purpose: The purpose is to evaluate the diagnostic performance of HE4 and IOTA in a Danish clinical setting. Furthermore, to develop an optimized diagnostic algorithm to differentiate ovarian cysts based on a combination of symptoms, biomarkers and IOTA. Methods: The study is a prospective, observational study. Women with ovarian cysts are included from gynecological practitioners and departments in the Capital Region of Denmark. Detailed information on health and symptoms are registered, and the cysts are systematically described by the gynecologist in accordance to the IOTA terminology. HE4 will be analyzed in those women who routinely needs a diagnostic blood test for CA125. Data will be coupled with data from the patient file and Danish Gynecological Cancer Database (DGCD). The diagnostic utility of HE4 and IOTA will be evaluated both alone and in combinations with health information, symptoms, and CA125. The study has been approved by the Regional Committee on Health Research Ethics (H-19021342) and the Data Protection Agency (P-2019-340). Significance: This study establishes a unique database which will form the basis for developing an optimized method for differentiating ovarian cysts, and thus optimize referral and diagnosis.
This clinical trial is evaluating a drug called BT5528 alone and in combination with nivolumab in participants with advanced solid tumors historically known for expression of EphA2. The main goals of this study are to: - Find the recommended dose(s) of BT5528 that can be given safely to participants alone and in combination with nivolumab - Learn more about the side effects of BT5528 - Learn about how effective BT5528 is for the treatment of ovarian cancer, urothelial/bladder cancer, lung cancer (NSCLC), triple-negative breast cancer, head and neck cancer (HNSCC), and gastric/upper gastrointestinal cancer. - Learn more about BT5528 therapy alone and in combination with nivolumab.
The purpose of this project is to establish a bank at UVa of tampon samples, cervical swabs, blood, associated tumor specimens that would otherwise be discarded, and relevant medical data from consenting patients that have suspected and/or confirmed gynecological cancer diagnoses. The specimens collected will be saved for analysis on future projects to determine if factors in the specimens are predictive and/or correlated to gynecological cancer diagnoses and/or outcomes
