Nivolumab for Recurrent/Metastatic Carcinosarcoma
Recurrent/Metastatic CarcinosarcomaCarcinosarcoma is a malignant neoplasm that is composed of both epithelial and mesenchymal elements and aggressive tumor that are staged as high-grade cancer in NCCN guideline. They are regarded as rare aggressive malignancies with a high potential to develop distant metastases and are associated with an overall poor survival. The aggressive nature of this malignancy coupled with a high relapse rate defines a poor clinical course for most patients. First line treatment of patients with advanced uterine carcinosarcoma with paclitaxel plus carboplatin achieved an objective response rate of 54% of patients. For this orphan tumor, carcinosarcoma, as these drugs would hypothetically act only on tissues with overexpression of PD-L1, they theoretically provide a more precise therapeutic effect on tumor cells with considerably less side effects. Therefore, the investigators suggest phase II trial of nivolumab for metastatic/recurred carcinosarcoma who have progressed after prior chemotherapy.
EPOCH: Eribulin and Pembrolizumab in Ovarian/Uterine Carcinosarcoma
Ovarian CarcinosarcomaUterine CarcinosarcomaThe EPOCH study population is patients with tubo-ovarian carcinosarcoma or uterine carcinosarcoma with evidence of recurrence or progression. The study aims to determine the activity of eribulin as a single agent and the combination of eribulin and pembrolizumab as measured by clinical benefit rate (CBR) at 12 weeks. Additionally, the study aims to establish whether high mobility group A2 (HMGA2) protein expression is a good functional biomarker to predict response to eribulin and pembrolizumab.

Does Cediranib With Paclitaxel, or Cediranib and Olaparib, Treat Advanced Endometrial Cancer Better...
CarcinosarcomaEndometrial NeoplasmsThe COPELIA trial is evaluating two new tablet medications in endometrial cancer for the first time. It will include 129 women aged 16 years or older with advanced endometrial cancer whose cancer has worsened after their initial chemotherapy treatment. Participants will be allocated at random to one of three groups: The first group (Arm 1) will receive a standard (routine) treatment for patients with endometrial cancer known as paclitaxel. This is a chemotherapy drug that is routinely used to treat patients with different cancers including ovarian, breast, lung and endometrial cancer. Paclitaxel works by stopping the growth of cancer cells. The second group (Arm 2) will receive the standard paclitaxel treatment once a week in addition to a new drug called cediranib. Cediranib is a tablet medication and works by blocking new blood vessel formation. Cediranib has been tested in women with endometrial cancer before but not alongside chemotherapy treatment. The third group (Arm 3) will receive two new tablet medications, cediranib and olaparib. Olaparib works by preventing cancer cells repairing DNA effectively. The use of olaparib and cediranib together has been shown to be effective in a common type of ovarian cancer but has not been evaluated as a treatment for endometrial cancer before. The main objectives of the COPELIA trial are to work out: Whether the two new treatments, cediranib-paclitaxel (Arm 2) and cediranib-olaparib (Arm 3) are more effective at controlling endometrial cancer than standard paclitaxel chemotherapy (Arm 1) Whether the two new treatments cause more or fewer side-effects than standard chemotherapy How each of these treatments impact on the daily life of women receiving the treatment by asking trial participants to regularly complete quality of life questionnaires Whether we can learn how these treatments work in women with endometrial cancer by taking some additional blood tests for research.

Ovarian CancerOvarian Neoplasms8 moreDICE is a randomised study recruiting 126 women over 3 years from hospitals in the UK and Germany. Eligible patients will have tissue based diagnosis of advanced/recurrent ovarian cancer (clear cell, endometrioid or high grade serous or carcinosarcoma), have had chemotherapy before, and be platinum-resistant (the cancer has returned/grown significantly during or within 6 months of platinum-containing chemotherapy).
Metformin Hydrochloride and Doxycycline in Treating Patients With Localized Breast or Uterine Cancer...
Breast CarcinomaEndometrial Clear Cell Adenocarcinoma3 moreThis phase II trial studies how well metformin hydrochloride works together with doxycycline in treating patients with localized breast or uterine cancer. Metformin hydrochloride may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Doxycycline may stop the growth of bacteria by keeping them from making proteins and minimized the toxic side effects of anti-cancer therapy. It is not yet known whether giving metformin hydrochloride together with doxycycline may be a better way in treating patients with localized breast or uterine cancer.

Measles virus, which has been changed in a certain way, may be able to kill tumor cells without damaging normal cells.
Recurrent Ovarian CarcinoSarcoma Anti-pd-1 Niraparib
Ovarian CarcinosarcomaEndometrial CarcinosarcomaCarcinosarcomas (CS) (malignant mixed Müllerian tumors) are highly aggressive and rare tumors with a worldwide annual incidence between 0.5-3.3 cases/100.000 women. Gynecological CS, i.e. ovarian CS (OCS) and uterine CS (UCS), have a 5-year overall survival (OS) < 10% and a poor prognosis. After initial treatment (surgery +/- adjuvant radiotherapies +/- chemotherapies (CT)), vast majority of patients relapsed and received diverse CT producing modest benefits, and nearly all patients will die. After first line CT including platinum salt, monotherapy (doxorubicin or paclitaxel) is frequently used for relapsed patients, but the response rate (RR) is <20%, progression-free survival (PFS) <4 months, and OS <1 year. In this unmet need situation, a better knowledge of these aggressive neoplasms is essential to propose new therapeutic options.
