Filter by:This study will investigate the tumor-associated vasculature of patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis, or cancer that spreads along the inner abdominal lining. The investigators will use a technology known as intravital microscopy (IVM) in order to visualize in real-time the tumor-associated vessels of peritoneal disease. The IVM observations may determine if an individual patient's tumor vessels would be amenable to receiving systemic therapy, based on the functionality of the vessels.
The purpose of this study is to see if patients undergoing a laparoscopic surgery for removal of ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer following neoadjuvant chemotherapy (neoadjuvant- chemotherapy given before surgery) is feasible, safe, and provides similar outcomes as compared to undergoing a large abdominal incision. Minimally invasive, or laparoscopic, surgery is a type of surgery where only small incisions are made on the abdomen and surgical instruments are placed through these incisions to perform the surgery. This type of surgery has been shown to improve outcomes in many types of surgery, including in gynecologic cancer surgery. Specifically, researchers know that patients who have minimally invasive surgery have less pain after surgery, can go home quicker from the hospital, healing time is more rapid, and potentially this can translate into returning to chemotherapy sooner. Specifically, in ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancer, minimally invasive surgery has not been used as much because these cancers can have tumors all throughout the inside of the abdomen (i.e. wide tumor burden) and located in areas that are sometimes not easily reachable with laparoscopic instruments. However, the reason patients receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy is to shrink the tumor/s to make the surgery less extensive and the recovery easier. It is unknown if minimally invasive surgery can be used in this setting and by studying this, the study team will be able to determine if patient outcomes are improved by implementing (using) this surgical technique.
Currently, there is a lack of knowledge on the effect of additional flushing after HIPEC on tumour platinum exposure, systemic platinum exposure and platinum concentration in drain exudate and thereby personal exposure. Therefore the investigators want to perform a study to investigate the effect of flushing after HIPEC on tumour exposure, systemic exposure and on wound exudate concentration.
As a follow-on study to NCT01416038, this study is designed to identify the optimal dosage of immunotherapeutic survivin vaccine DPX-Survivac and low dose oral cyclophosphamide. The combination treatment is being evaluated in a non-randomized, multi-cohort study as post-chemotherapy treatment for patients with late-stage ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer.
The PIPAC nab-pac study is designed to examine the maximal tolerated dose of albumin bound nanoparticle paclitaxel (nab-pac, Abraxane) administered with repeated pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC), in a multicentre, multinational phase I trial.
This is a study, where the efficacy of Pressurized IntraPeritoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy (PIPAC) against peritoneal metastases will be evaluated. Furthermore, this study will focus on the best evaluation method, where both Quality of Life questionnaires, repeated histology, cytology and MRI will be used.
This study determine the maximal tolerate dose
This is multicentre, open-label, single-arm phase II study that investigates the feasibility, safety, tolerability, preliminary efficacy, costs, and pharmacokinetics or repetitive electrostatic pressurised intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (ePIPAC-OX) as a palliative monotherapy for patients with isolated unresectable colorectal peritoneal metastases.
This phase II trial studies how well hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy works in improving quality of life in patients with stage IIIC-IV ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. In hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy, the chemotherapy is warmed before being used and may help the drugs get into the cancer cells better, minimize the toxicity of the drugs on normal cells, and help to kill any cancer cells left over after surgery.
This is a Phase III, global, double-blind, 2-arm randomized study designed to compare the efficacy and safety of atezolizumab + paclitaxel + carboplatin + bevacizumab versus placebo + paclitaxel + carboplatin + bevacizumab. Study participants will have Stage 3 or 4 ovarian cancer (OC), fallopian tube cancer (FTC), or primary peritoneal cancer (PPC) with macroscopic residual disease postoperatively (i.e., after primary tumor reductive surgery) or who will undergo neoadjuvant therapy followed by interval surgery.
