Active clinical trials for "Ovarian Neoplasms"

A first-in-human study using HKT288 in solid tumors, including epithelial ovarian cancer and renal cell carcinoma

This study describes the survival outcomes of advanced stage breast, colorectal, ovarian and pancreatic cancer patients receiving advanced integrative oncology (AIO) treatment at participating North American integrative oncology clinics. This study also aims to describe the integrative treatments recommended by naturopathic doctors (NDs) for these participants alongside their conventional care treatments. Sub-studies will evaluate health-related quality of life, cost of cancer care, and qualitative experience of care in a subset of Canadian participants.

An Open-label Phase 1b Study of ARQ 092 in Combination with other Antineoplastic Agents in Subjects with Selected Solid Tumors

This is a Phase 1a/1b study of SC-003 as a single agent and in combination with ABBV-181 in patients with platinum-resistant/refractory ovarian cancer. SC-003 is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) comprised of a monoclonal antibody linked to a potent chemotherapy. ABBV-181 is a humanized, recombinant, mAb that binds to cell surface expressed programmed cell death 1 (PD-1).

Brain metastases are the most common intracranial malignancy occurring in 20-40% of all cancers, and the presence of CNS metastases is associated with a poor prognosis. As such, the median overall survival of patients with symptomatic brain lesions is a dismal 2-3 months regardless of tumor type. Because standard chemotherapy largely does not cross the blood brain barrier at a meaningful concentration, standard treatment is limited and usually involves surgical resection and/or stereotactic radiosurgery for isolated lesions and whole brain radiation for multiple lesions. Unfortunately, the median overall survival is only improved by about 6 months with this multimodality approach2, and there is a paucity of second-line therapies to treat recurrence. Furthermore, re-resection and re-radiation are often not feasible options due to concern for increasing complications or neurotoxicity, respectively. Thus, there is a dire clinical need for additional treatment options for this patient population. Checkpoint blockade therapy, in particular PD-1 and PD-L1 inhibition, has recently shown clinical efficacy in multiple types of solid tumors. The investigators propose to study the efficacy of checkpoint blockade therapy in patients with solid tumors and refractory/recurrent brain metastases. The investigators will assess the efficacy of MEDI4736, a novel PD-L1 inhibitory monoclonal antibody, in this study.

This was an open-label, single-arm, Phase II study in which amcasertib (BBI503) was administered to adult, asymptomatic patients with recurrent ovarian cancer who had elevated CA-125.

Background: - Some people with gastrointestinal or ovarian cancer also have ascites. That is free fluid built up in the abdomen. Researchers want to see if a new drug can affect some of the immune cells in the ascites. This may also treat the cancer. Objective: - To look at the immune markers the ascites of people with gastrointestinal or ovarian cancer. Eligibility: - Adults age 18 and older with a malignancy of the gastrointestinal tract (GI) tract or metastatic ovarian cancer. As a result, they have ascites in the abdomen. Design: Participants will be screened with: Medical history, physical exam, and blood tests. Echocardiogram: sound waves make images of the heart. Electrocardiogram: measures electrical activity of the heart. Paracentesis: a needle will be inserted in the abdomen and will remove some of the ascites fluid. They may have a tumor biopsy. Participants will get AZD9150 through a vein for 3 hours. They will get this 6 times in cycle 1 and 4 times all other cycles. Each cycle is 28 days. Each cycle, participants will: Have a physical exam. Have blood tests weekly. Be asked about how they feel and any medicines they are taking. After every 2 cycles (about every 2 months), participants will have scans and x-rays of their tumor. Participants will have paracentesis 2 more times during the study. They will have another echocardiogram. At the end of therapy, participants will have a physical exam and blood tests. They will be asked about how they feel and any medicines they are taking.

The main purpose of this Pilot Study is to test the safety, tolerability and quality of life in women who take Fermented Wheat Germ Extract (FWGE), to determine if an active form of FWGE can be detected in the blood, and determine whether short-term therapy with FWGE has any effect on the tumor marker, cancer antigen 125 (CA-125).

This randomized pilot clinical trial studies health care coach support in reducing acute care use and cost in patients with cancer. Health care coach support may help cancer patients to make decisions about their care that matches what is important to them with symptom management.

This study was designed to evaluate the effect of two dose levels of NUC-1031 (500 mg/m2 and 750mg/m2) in patients with ovarian cancer. The primary objective was to determine the anti-tumor activity of NUC-1031 at the selected dose level (500 mg/m2 or 750 mg/m2).
