Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to see if timed fasting (periods of time that you don't eat) in participants who are receiving chemotherapy prior to surgery is achievable, safe and can improve quality of life, symptoms and outcomes (results) compared to participants who receive standard dietary recommendations in individuals being treated for epithelial ovarian cancer . The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is it feasible to use intermittent fasting during neoadjuvant chemotherapy? - Is it safe to use intermittent fasting during neoadjuvant chemotherapy? - Do participants find it acceptable to use intermittent fasting during neoadjuvant chemotherapy? Researchers will compare participants who receive standard dietary recommendations to see which method is more achievable, safe, and able to improve quality of life, symptoms and outcomes. Participants will: - Receive either the fasting intervention (schedule of times when you do not eat) or standard diet recommendations for 6-9 weeks prior to your surgery starting with the second cycle of chemotherapy. - All participants will be asked to complete chemotherapy and surgery, cancer imaging, baseline screening tests, nutritional assessments, food diaries, blood tests, and surveys about wellbeing. - Participants in the intervention group will be asked to follow a fasting schedule that consists of not eating for 16 hours a day followed by normal eating for the remaining 8 hours of the day for 5 days in a row followed by 2 days of regular eating each week.
This clinical trial is looking at UCB4594. This is the first time the drug is being tested in humans. UCB4594 is a type of drug called a monoclonal antibody. It has been designed to work by targeting a protein called human leucocyte antigen G (HLA-G) that is found in high levels on some cancer cells. By attaching itself to this protein it may help the immune system to attack and kill the cancer cells. The four main aims of the clinical trial are to find out: 1. The best dose of UCB4594 that can be given safely to participants in the trial. 2. What the side effects of UCB4594 are and how they can be managed. 3. What happens to UCB4594 inside the body and how it affects cancer cells. 4. Whether UCB4594 can cause cancer to shrink.
Despite significant advancements in imaging technologies, surgical techniques, chemotherapeutic regimens, and treatment strategies in recent years, ovarian cancer continues to remain the most deadly gynecological malignancy. Approximately 90% of ovarian cancers originate from the coelomic epithelium or modified mesothelial cells and are classified as epithelial ovarian cancers. The majority of patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (70-80%) present in advanced stages. The primary treatment for advanced-stage (stage 3-4) disease consists of primary cytoreductive surgery followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. Cytoreductive surgery aims to remove all visible tumor implants regardless of the extent of the disease and achieve no visible residual tumor (complete cytoreduction, R0) at the end of the surgery. In cases where R0 cannot be achieved (due to poor general condition and/or extensive tumor that cannot be completely excised surgically), the option of neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval cytoreductive surgery is considered. Primary cytoreductive surgery is still the preferred option and is considered a quality indicator for centers performing advanced-stage ovarian cancer surgeries. Despite advancements in surgery, the decision for interval surgery following primary surgery or neoadjuvant chemotherapy is often based on the surgeon's experience, imaging results, and clinic preferences. Various methods and scores have been published and applied to predict which patients are suitable for primary surgery. The Cukurova score developed in our clinic conceptualizes prioritizing surgical procedures using radiological imaging and diagnostic exploratory laparoscopy to achieve complete cytoreduction in harmony with the patient's clinical and performance status, rather than focusing solely on tumor burden. The score showed high success rates for complete cytoreduction and also was useful in terms of predicting the morbidity and mortality. However, the Cukurova score study was conducted in single center. Validation of scores in centers with different capacities is expected to facilitate their widespread use and acceptance. Therefore, in this study, the investigators plan to conduct a validation study of the score in a total of 20 centers in Turkey, including our center. This study aims to evaluate the validity of the Cukurova score in predicting outcomes of primary cytoreduction in advanced ovarian cancer patients and thus determining the decision for primary cytoreductive surgery or neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval cytoreductive surgery.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, dosimetry and preliminary efficacy of [177Lu]Lu-EVS459 and the safety and imaging properties of [68Ga]Ga-EVS459 in patients aged ≥ 18 years with advanced high-grade serous ovarian cancer (OC) or locally advanced unresectable or metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung carcinoma (non-sq. NSCLC).
Safety and Immunogenicity of InnocellTM Autologous Cellular Immunotherapy Administered in Patients with Recurrent Epithelial Ovarian Cancer
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the incidence rate and severity of pre-specified mirvetuximab soravtansine (MIRV)-related ocular treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and assess prophylaxis strategies in all participants (symptomatic and asymptomatic) undergoing prospective ophthalmic evaluation with recurrent ovarian cancer (participants with either platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer [PSOC] or platinum-resistant ovarian cancer [PROC]) with high folate receptor alpha (FRα) expression.
The goal of this observational case-control study is to learn about the circulating and tissue microRNA expression, imaging and radiomic profiles of malignant ovarian germ cell tumours (MOGCT) compared to patients with a benign OGCT and no ovarian pathology. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: 1. To understand the circulating miRNA expression of malignant ovarian germ cell tumours (MOGCTs) compared to those with benign ovarian germ cell tumours (BOGCTs) 2. To understand the imaging profile of MOGCTs compared to that of BOGCTs 3. To establish the relationship between serum and plasma miRNA expression in response to treatment and relapse of disease 4. To discover if miRNA expression correlates with radiomic features of OGCTs on both ultrasound and MRI 5. To see if we can link the micro RNAs in tumour samples to those found in blood samples, and to find a plausible explanation for why these micro RNAs are raised (in terms of the tumour biology itself).aims Participants will have serial blood tests at different time points in their care to assess how circulating miRNA levels are affected by treatment and/or remission and/or relapse. If they have surgery, a pathology sample will be taken from the main tumour specimen. Radiomic analysis will take place on existing ultrasound images of their mass. Researchers will compare the circulating miRNA profile of patients with a benign ovarian germ cell tumour and no ovarian pathology to see where the differences lie. If a patient with a BOGCT requires surgery, a pathology sample will be taken from the main tumour specimen. Radiomic analysis will take place on existing ultrasound images of their benign mass.
Study D0817R00081 is a retrospective study using NCID database to assess the safety of Olaparib in Chinese patients with ovarian cancer by examining the incidence, seriousness, and severity of all AEs, including but not limiting to AESIs and SAEs, AEs related to Olaparib, and AEs leading to dose reduction, interruption or discontinuation of Olaparib. The first Olaparib prescription date will be set as the index date. The baseline period is from the patient's first ovarian cancer diagnosis recorded in the database to the patient's first treatment with Olaparib (as early as the database start date of January 1, 2013) to the index date for derivation of lines of therapy or one year pre-index date for other baseline variables. Patients will be followed until the patient's last medical record in the database, 30 days after the last dose of Olaparib, death, or June 30, 2023, whichever comes first. All patients who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria will be enrolled.
