Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Ovarian Epithelial"

RAD-18-001 is a First-In-Man, Dose Escalation study conducted at 2 sites. The dose escalation will be performed based on a 3 + 3 design. Increasing dose levels starting at 1 MBq will be followed by 2, 4 and 7 MBq. If the highest dose level of 7 MBq is reached without Dose Limiting Toxicicities (which will stop the dose escalation), this will be the recommended dose for further exploration. Each subject will be followed until disease progression (in the abdominal cavity), or for 24 months after the administration of Radspherin® (whichever comes first). In the expansion cohort the subject will receive the recommended dose. The expansion cohort will be conducted at 4 sites. Each subject will be followed until disease progression (in the abdominal cavity), or for 24 months after the administration of Radspherin® (whichever comes first).

The treatment of choice in advanced ovarian cancer is a cytoreductive surgery combined with chemotherapeutic treatment. This complex and aggressive surgery is associated with high postoperative complication rates that may result in a strong negative impact on the clinical results due to the delay with the start of adjuvant chemotherapy as well as the costs from the surgical process. Multimodal prehabilitation has emerged as an innovative intervention that focuses on optimizing physiological and psychological resilience to withstand the upcoming stress of surgery. It has been shown to reduce postoperative complications in major abdominal surgery, but has not been assessed yet in abdominal onco-gynecological surgery.

The purpose of this study is to determine if exercise preconditioning can mitigate the off target effects of chemotherapy treatment on measures of cardiovascular function, peripheral neuropathy, and quality of life.

This pilot study will assess the feasibility of using an implantable microdevice to measure local intratumor response to chemotherapy and other clinically relevant drugs in ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancer. The name of the study intervention involved in this study is: -implantable microdevice

This study is phase II, open label, clinical trial to determine the efficacy of Olaparib maintenance with Bevacizumab and Pembrolizumab by assessment progression-free survival(6 months PFS rate) in BRCA non-mutated patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer.

This is a randomized trial to evaluate the effectiveness of an electronic decision aid tool versus a traditional genetic counselor session for multi-gene panel testing for people with ovarian or pancreatic cancer

To develop a shared decision-making (SDM) tool to help Spanish-speaking patients make decisions about their maintenance therapy

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of nab-paclitaxel with solvent-based taxanes as first-line treatment for patients with advanced primary epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), primary peritoneal carcinoma or fallopian tube carcinoma.

An anticipated 200 women with newly diagnosed ovarian cancer scheduled to receive chemotherapy (adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery or neoadjuvant chemotherapy before surgery) will be recruited from Smilow Cancer Hospital Network at Yale Cancer Center (YCC) and Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center (SCCC) at University of Miami. Participants will be randomized to an exercise and medical nutrition intervention arm with weekly counseling sessions throughout chemotherapy, or a control arm. Study assessments will be conducted at baseline, post-chemotherapy/end of intervention and at 1-year post diagnosis. Women who are prescribed neoadjuvant therapy will have additional assessments prior to surgery. Data required to calculate the primary endpoint (relative dose intensity of chemotherapy) will be abstracted from the medical record directly following each chemotherapy session.

Surgery and chemotherapy combined constitute first line treatment in women with advanced ovarian cancer. The aim of surgery apart from staging is cytoreduction, i.e. surgical resection of tumour. Radical resection of all tumour visible by the naked eye followed by adjuvant chemotherapy is associated with best chance of prolonged survival. However, because of tumour dissemination in the peritoneal cavity, radical surgery is often very extensive with surgery in all quadrants of the abdomen and multi-organ resection with substantial risk of postoperative severe complications and subsequent delay in administration of adjuvant chemotherapy. Longer time-interval between surgery to start of adjuvant chemotherapy has been associated with decrease in survival. Surgery presents opportunities not only for eradicating tumours but, paradoxically, also for proliferation and invasion of residual cancer cells. It increases the shedding of malignant cells into the blood and lymphatic circulations, inhibits their apoptosis and potentiates their invasion capacity. Additionally, the immune system, the inflammatory system and the neuroendocrine system react to surgery with important changes, which have been proven to promote progression of cancer. Several anaesthesia-related factors play an important role in perioperative tumorigenesis such as inhalational anaesthetics, opiate analgesics, local anaesthetics and regional anaesthesia, all of which may impact short-term morbidity and long-term mortality. A previous randomized placebo-controlled pilot study suggests that women who receive local anesthetics intraperitoneally preoperatively have a significantly decreased time-interval to initiation of adjuvant chemotherapy. In a prospective, randomised, multi-centre study, we plan to further assess if intraperitoneal local anaesthetics administered perioperatively during 72 h leads to early start of chemotherapy compared to placebo in patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery for FIGO stage III-IV ovarian cancer.
