Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Ovarian Epithelial"

This is a single arm, multi center, exploratory clinical study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fluzoparide combined with alpatinib as neoadjuvant therapy in patients with BRCA1/2 gene mutation or HRD gene mutation, advanced ovarian cancer, primary peritoneal cancer, fallopian tube cancer ((FIGO stage III or IV), who can not achieve R0 tumor reduction surgery after imaging evaluation or laparoscopic evaluation .

The study is designed as an observational cohort study, aiming to evaluate, whether a structured recording of symptoms by a mobile app contributes insight in the follow-up modalities of ovarian cancer patients.

Individuals with ovarian cancer have very poor survival rates. This is because the cancer is not usually detected until it has reached advanced stages. How long an individual survives also is determined by the cancer treatment they receive. Although there are best treatment practices to improve survival, some women have other conditions that limit treatment options. One such condition seen in as many as 50% of women with advanced ovarian cancer is frailty (an age-related decline in function and health). This is a major concern as doctors will often have to change how the cancer is treated based on the patient being frail. For example, patients living with frailty are less likely to have their full tumor removed during surgery. They are also more likely to have complications with surgery, stay in the hospital longer, and recover less well from surgery overall. Patients living with frailty also are more likely to experience delays in their chemotherapy starting, receive lower doses of chemotherapy and/or receive fewer cycles of chemotherapy. These changes in treatment may decrease how long a patient survives after diagnosis. Thus, research is needed to explore strategies to decrease frailty in patients who require treatment for advanced ovarian cancer. An option gaining more attention is physical exercise (e.g. walking, repeatedly rising from a chair). Exercise performed before surgery, which is called prehabilitation, can improve how well a patient recovers after surgery and increase how long they survive. Research has shown that prehabilitation is very beneficial for patients undergoing surgery for heart disease. However, it is not clear whether prehabilitation works for those with advanced ovarian cancer that are going to have surgery. Therefore, the investigators want to explore how a 4+ week exercise program performed while waiting for surgery for advanced ovarian cancer changes frailty and how a patient recovers after surgery. The investigators will specifically look whether the exercise program: 1) reduces how frail a patient is before surgery; 2) improves how well the patient recovers after surgery; and 3) affects the patient's chemotherapy treatment plan. This study will provide important information about the ability of prehabilitation exercise to improve surgical and treatment outcomes in women with advanced ovarian cancer. Overall, it is believed that exercise has the potential to improve the survival of advanced ovarian cancer patients.

Multicenter, randomized, open label study including patients with advanced HRDpositive high-grade ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, primary peritoneal cancer and clear cell carcinoma of the ovary with no residual tumor mass following primary tumor debulking to determine recurrence free survival in patients treated with 3 cycles carboplatin + paclitaxel and maintenance therapy with niraparib vs. 6 cycles carboplatin + paclitaxel and maintenance therapy with niraparib.

This study will be an open-label, single-arm, prospective, exploratory phase II trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of niraparib maintenance retreatment in platinum- sensitive recurrent (PSR) epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients (including patients with primary peritoneal and/or fallopian tube cancer).

This research study is looking at tumor tissue samples from patients who have undergone surgery for advanced stage III or stage IV ovarian epithelial cancer. Studying samples of tumor tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn how tumor infiltrating T cells can predict how patients will respond to treatment.

This is a randomized phase II study of secondary cytoreductive surgery (CRS) in patients with relapsed ovarian cancer who have progressed on PARP inhibitor maintenance.

Optimal Timing of Surgery combined with Maintenance Therapy in the Front-line Treatment of Advanced Ovarian Cancer

The purpose of the study is to test how well patients with advanced solid tumors and ovarian cancer respond to treatment with elimusertib in combination with niraparib. In addition researchers want to find for patients the optimal dose of elimusertib in combination with niraparib, how the drug is tolerated and the way the body absorbs, distributes and discharges the drug. The study medication elimusertib works by blocking a substance produced by the body (ATR Kinase) which is important for the growth of tumor cells. Niraparib works by blocking a substance produced by the body (PARP enzymes) in a way that tumor cells can be killed, or made more susceptible to chemotherapy.

This study is testing whether a 6 week skills-based telehealth intervention can help ovarian cancer patients experiencing PARP inhibitor-related fatigue reduce the impact of fatigue on their daily life and activities.
