Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Ovarian Epithelial"

This phase II trial studies how well pUMVC3-IGFBP2 plasmid deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) vaccine (IGFBP-2 vaccine) and combination chemotherapy work in treating patients with stage III-IV ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer undergoing surgery. IGFBP-2 is a protein found in the blood and tumor cells of most who have been diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Too much IGFBP-2 has been associated with more invasive disease. Vaccines made from DNA may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells that express IGFBP-2. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving IGFBP-2 vaccine and combination chemotherapy may work better in treating patients with stage III-IV ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer undergoing surgery.

This is a Phase 1/1b, open-label, multicenter, dose-escalation and dose expansion trial to evaluate the safety, efficacy, PK and PD of defactinib (VS-6063) in combination with avelumab in epithelial ovarian cancer.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of BAX69 monotherapy given either as intraperitoneal (IP) infusion (Single-Route Arm); or as IP infusion after intravenous (IV) infusion (IV+IP) (Double-Route Arm), and to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) for each Arm separately, in subjects with refractory ovarian cancer and recurrent malignant ascites. In both Arms, the plasma pharmacokinetics (PK) of BAX69 will be characterized, and pharmacodynamics (PD) markers will be explored in plasma and ascites. Two expansion cohorts will further assess the tolerability of the RP2D and explore clinical signs of efficacy.

Background: - The new drug BMN 673 (talazoparib) has been shown to fight tumor cells in animals and some people. It is a poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor. It works on tumor cell deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage repair process. Researchers want to see if BMN 673 shrinks cancer again in women with ovarian cancer and whose cancer initially got shrunk but grew back on the first PARP inhibitor. Objective: - To study BMN 673 (talazoparib) in people with ovarian cancer born with a breast cancer (BRCA) mutation and whose cancer got shrunk but became worse after they took a similar drug. Eligibility: Women at least 18 years old: with recurrent and/or metastatic germline breast cancer mutation (gBRCAm)-associated ovarian cancer AND whose disease is growing after already being treated with PARP inhibitors AND with no other treatment(s) in between the first PARP inhibitors and a screening visit. Design: Participants will be screened with medical history, physical exam, and heart and blood tests. Participants will take the study drug by mouth once daily. They will take the drug in 28-day cycles. They will keep a diary of doses and any side effects. Participants will have 4 study visits in cycle 1, then 1 visit every cycle. Visits may include: Blood tests Physical exam Computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. Participants will lie in a machine that takes pictures of their body. Ultrasound Participants will have a biopsy before starting the study drug. A small piece of tumor tissue will be removed by needle, guided by a scan. They may have two more biopsies later. Participants will be followed for 30 days after taking the last dose of study drug. A physical exam, blood tests, and CT or other scans will be done. Participants will have follow-up calls to ask about any side effects.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether DCVAC/OvCa added to chemotherapy may result in prolongation of Overall Survival (OS).

The main purpose of this study is to determine if Triciribine (TCN) and carboplatin are safe and tolerable when given together, and to determine if this combination of drugs can help people with recurrent ovarian cancer.

To determine if AMG 386 plus pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) is superior to placebo plus PLD as measured by progression-free survival (PFS) The hypothesis for this study is that AMG 386 plus PLD will prolong PFS compared to placebo plus PLD in women with recurrent partially platinum sensitive or resistant epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal or fallopian tube cancer.

The early relapse of ovarian cancer occurring within 6 months of chemotherapy including platinum regimen are called relapses 'platinum resistant' consecutively patients die quickly of their disease. For relapses occurring between 6 and 12 months, no recommendation occur and few studies are conducted. Therefore it seems interesting to develop a research on intensive chemotherapy using a combination of carboplatin (a drug widely used in most ovarian cancer) with Topotecan , use in a high dose protocol. Topotecan has demonstrated its efficacy in relapse ovarian cancer and its possible use in high doses, a recent study (ITOV01) have demonstrated the feasibility of dose escalation of topotecan monotherapy (MTD set at 9 mg / m² / dx 5 days). This project is a feasibility research of the combination of topotecan and carboplatin in a high dose escalation protocol for early ovarian cancer relapse occurring 6 to 12 months after conventional chemotherapy-based platinum salts.

This is a study to find out if the study drug, panitumumab, when given with gemcitabine works in treating ovarian cancer and to find out what side effects occur when they are given together.

This phase I clinical trial is studying the side effects and the best dose of vorinostat when given together with paclitaxel and carboplatin in treating patients with metastatic or recurrent solid tumors and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Vorinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving vorinostat together with paclitaxel and carboplatin may kill more tumor cells. NOTE: An administrative decision was made by NCI to halt further study of vorinostat in this specific patient population as of February 1, 2013. No patients remain on vorinostat. Going forward this study will determine the safety and tolerability of the paclitaxel and carboplatin combination in this patient population.
