Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Ovarian Epithelial"

Phase 2, single arm, study to assess the efficacy and safety of maveropepimut-S (MVP-S) and low-dose cyclophosphamide (CPA) in subjects with recurrent, platinum resistant ovarian cancer.

Recently results have shown that Bevacizumab is active both in monotherapy and in combination therapy in patients with ovarian cancer. One of our objectives is to evaluate whether the addition of neoadjuvant bevacizumab improves the response and whether this affects the evolution of patients.

This is a two-part, Phase 1, open-label, multicenter, dose escalation study of KHK2866 as monotherapy in patients with advanced solid tumors, and in combination with chemotherapy in subjects platinum-sensitive and platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.

The purpose of this study is to determine, whether there is clinical benefit of using fdg-PET/CT (F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose- positron emission tomography/computed tomography)compared to contrast-enhanced CT in primary treatment of advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) Objectives the impact of preoperative PET/CT compared to CT on EOC stage definition to compare the value of preoperative PET/CT, CT and laparoscopy in intra-abdominal tumour assessment. Laparotomy findings evaluated by surgeon and histopathologic results serve as the reference standard. to compare serum markers HE4(human epididymis protein 4) and CA125 (cancer antigen 125) with FDG-PET/CT and CT in treatment response evaluation during neoadjuvant chemotherapy and primary treatment of EOC to compare FDG PET/CT based treatment response evaluation with RECIST and GCIG criteria Methods All the patients will undergo FDG-PET/CT prior surgery, after possible neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) and 4 weeks after completion of primary platinum-based chemotherapy. CA125 and HE4 levels are measured pre-operatively, with every chemotherapy cycle and regularly during follow-up until 1st disease relapse

This study will test the feasibility of combining 3 drugs, Revlimid with Doxil and Bevacizumab,and gather preliminary data on the potential activity of the combination in patients with platinum resistant/refractory ovarian cancer.

Preclinical studies showed that metronomic chemotherapy can induce tumor regression secondary to apoptosis of the tumor blood vessels. This effect was increased by combining metronomic chemotherapy with anti-angiogenic drugs. Metronomic chemotherapy has already proved clinical effects too, especially on patients with breast or prostate carcinoma. This study is aimed to test the efficacy of an experimental metronomic chemotherapy regimen in a cohort of patients with ovarian cancer. Patients will receive the proposed regimen as maintenance treatment following response induction by the conventional maximal tolerated dose (MTD) regimen of Carboplatin and Paclitaxel. Our regimen will include Cytophosphan combined with two agents which are expected to act as indirect angiogenic inhibitors: (a) celecoxib, as a selective COX-2 inhibitor and (b) low-dose Methotrexate, as successfully practiced for suppressing the inflammatory manifestations of rheumatoid arthritis. All components of our regimen will be administered orally and continuously for one year based on the hypothesis that its anti-angiogenic properties will be able to suppress the recovery of residual disease, thus extending the time to progression (TTP), and possibly the overall survival as well.

The first part of this study is to find the recommended dosages of a combination of two drugs: pazopanib and fosbretabulin, which will be given to female patients with relapsed ovarian cancer. The second part of the study involves comparing the recommended dose of pazopanib and fosbretabulin in combination against pazopanib alone in female patients with relapsed ovarian cancer to determine whether the combination is more beneficial that pazopanib on it's own.

Older woman with ovarian cancer have a worse prognosis compared to younger patients. However, the reason is not known. Currently, the standard of care is to evaluate younger and older patients with cancer the same way. However, older patients with cancer often have more complicated issues to manage. For example, older patients often have other medical problems, take more medications, and be dependent on others for help and transportation. Too often, the medical team is unaware of these issues which can effect the patients care. The purpose of this study is to apply a set of questions designed specifically for patients with cancer who are older than 65 years of age. These questions are called a geriatric assessment. The investigators want to better understand which older patients with ovarian cancer will be able to tolerate the chemotherapy and surgery and why. This study will also see if a telephone call from a nurse who specializes in caring for older patients will improve patient care. This study will determine how feasible it is to perform geriatric assessments and telephone calls in patients with ovarian cancer.

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).

The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety and tolerability, identify a recommended dose for expansion (RDE) / recommended phase II dose (RP2D), pharmacodynamics, and antitumor activity of Oregovomab vaccination in combination with Nivolumab as a novel combinatorial immunotherapeutic strategy in in female patients with recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) who progressed after two or more prior lines of cytotoxic chemotherapy.
