Active clinical trials for "Ovarian Neoplasms"

This study is a 2 part, 2 cohort, open-label, dose escalation/de escalation study of AMG 386 in combination with either pegylated liposomal doxorubicin or topotecan in subjects with recurrent ovarian cancer. Up to 100 subjects will be enrolled to receive AMG 386 in combination with either pegylated liposomal doxorubicin every 4 weeks (cohort A) or topotecan weekly on days 1, 8, and 15 of a 28 day dosing schedule (cohort B). Subject enrollment and assignment to either cohort will be based on eligibility and the investigator's discretion. It is hypothesized that AMG 386, in combination with each of the chemotherapy regimens: either pegylated liposomal doxorubicin or topotecan will be safe and well tolerated in subjects with recurrent ovarian cancer.

This is a phase II trial to investigate the effect of bevacizumab and carboplatin in patients with platin resistant ovarian cancer.

This phase II trial studies how well temsirolimus, carboplatin, and paclitaxel as first-line therapy works in treating patients with newly diagnosed stage III-IV clear cell ovarian cancer. Temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving temsirolimus with combination chemotherapy may be an effective treatment for ovarian cancer.

This is an international, randomized phase II trial. The aim is to assess the efficacy and the safety of BI 6727 Versus investigator's best choice single agent cytotoxic in recurrent third and fourth lines platinum resistant/refractory ovarian cancer. 100 patients will be randomised at the study entry to receive either BI 6727 (Arm A: 50 patients) or non-platinum single agent cytotoxic (Arm B: 50 patients) Treatment will be continued until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Primary endpoint: disease control rate at week 24 according to Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumours version 1.1. Secondary endpoints: efficacy (progression free survival, overall survival, biological tumour response, biological progression free survival assessed by serum CA 125 according to Gynecologic Cancer Intergroup criteria, safety according to the NCI CTCAE v.3, disease symptoms control assessed by the EORTC QLQ-C30, QLQ-OV28 and individual symptoms questionnaires, pharmacokinetics of BI 6727. Others endpoints: biomarkers and pharmacogenetics analysis (optional)

The purpose of this study is to determine the objective response rate of ABT-888 when given in combination with temozolomide versus pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) alone in subjects with recurrent high grade serous ovarian cancer.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the antitumor activity and potential adverse effects of the combination celecoxib plus carboplatin in patients with recurrent, heavily pre-treated Ovarian Cancer (OC). The potential changes induced by the experimental combination on angiogenesis-related serum markers and quality of life measures will be also evaluated.The main objective is to evaluate the response rate. Secondary objectives are the following:toxicity;progression free survival;overall survival;duration of response;quality of life;modulation of angiogenesis-related molecules.

Background: - The best treatment for ovarian and related female reproductive tract cancers is not yet known for patients whose disease has not responded to or has recurred after standard treatment. The cancer treatment drug pegaspargase (ONCASPAR (Trademark)), which works differently from standard chemotherapy, has been approved to treat leukemia and has been given to a small number of patient with ovarian and other types of cancer. Because pegaspargase may reduce the development of cancer cells and blood vessel cells that contribute to cancer growth and ability to spread, treatment with pegaspargase could shrink ovarian cancer tumors and help ovarian cancer patients live longer and with fewer symptoms from their disease. Objectives: - To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of pegaspargase in patients with recurrent or refractory ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, and/or primary peritoneal cancer. Eligibility: - Women at least 18 years of age who have been diagnosed with epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer that has not responded to at least one operation, chemotherapy, and/or radiotherapy. Design: Before the start of the study, participants will be screened with a medical history, blood tests, imaging scans of the affected areas, tumor biopsies, and other tests as directed by the study doctors. Participants will receive an infusion of pegaspargase on Day 1 and Day 15 of each 28-day cycle. Participants will have dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) at the start of the study, before beginning pegaspargase, and again 6 weeks into the treatment. This test will determine if pegaspargase is affecting blood flow to the cancer site. Participants will have a computed tomography scan or other imaging every other cycle (approximately every 8 weeks) to determine whether the therapy is affecting the cancer site. The treatment will be repeated as long as the participant tolerates the medication and his or her cancer is either steady or improving.

This phase II trial is studying the side effects and how well RO4929097 works in treating patients with recurrent and/or metastatic epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer. RO4929097 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Monoclonal antibodies can transport and deliver radioactive elements capable of releasing sufficient amounts of energy to destroy tumor cells. In this clinical trial, we will study alpha particle radio immunotherapy using lead-212 (²¹²Pb), an isotope with a short path length targeted to malignant cells by the trastuzumab antibody, as a potential treatment for metastatic diseases. This Phase I trial is designed to determine the toxicity profile of ²¹²Pb-TCMC-Trastuzumab, its dose-limiting toxicities, and its anti-tumor effects in patients with HER-2 positive intraperitoneal cancers.

This phase II trial studies how well belinostat works in treating patients with ovarian epithelial cancer, primary peritoneal cancer, or fallopian tube cancer that have spread to other places in the body or ovarian low malignant potential tumors. Belinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
