Active clinical trials for "Carcinoma, Ovarian Epithelial"

A study to discuss the advantage of Fapi PET- CT in the initial diagnosis staging and lesion determination of ovarian cancer,whether it can be a evaluation strategy as an R0 evaluation tool or a prediction tool of chemotherapy response and evaluation of prognosis.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the role of lifestyle and environmental factors ( environmental contaminants such as Cd) on the penetrance of BRCA1/2 genes in BRCAm patients with Breast cancer and/or Ovarian cancer and in BRCAm healthy women without cancer diagnosis

The purpose of this study is to retrospectively evaluate treatments and outcomes of patients with low grade serous ovarian carcinomas in Italy.

This study collects information to maintain a database on patients with low-grade ovarian or peritoneal tumors. Collecting information about the type of cancer and treatment, as well as details about follow-up care, may help researchers learn and better understand these tumor types and help develop better treatments for them.

This study will collect the data from existing patient medical records at US cancer centers. The study will include patients with BRCAwt ovarian cancer who have been prescribed first line (1L) olaparib maintenance treatment.

This study aims to evaluate the incidence of low anterior resection syndrome and quality of life after cytoreductive surgery for advanced ovarian cancer patients.

This study collects blood and tissue samples from patients with cancer and without cancer to evaluate tests for early cancer detection. Collecting and storing samples of blood and tissue from patients with and without cancer to study in the laboratory may help researchers develop tests for the early detection of cancers.

To elucidate factors affecting survival of early stage ovarian cancer

The study aims to develop a test for early detection of ovarian cancer using DNA from a growth involving the ovary found in a washing of the uterus (womb), and proteins found in the blood. The samples of the wash and the blood will be taken before surgery. After surgery, doctors will determine whether the participant had ovarian cancer or a benign disease of the ovaries. The tests of the washings and the blood will be examined to see how much the participants with ovarian cancer can be separated from the participants with a benign ovarian disease by the tests. Small amounts from the washing and the blood samples will be sent to four sites for analysis. Statistical analyses of these data will compare tumor DNA found in the washing of the uterus with proteins in the blood to detect cases of ovarian cancer. The primary goal is to find tests that are mostly positive for cases of ovarian cancer and mostly negative for patients with benign disease. It is hoped that if the tests work for participants with symptoms of the disease that these tests will also work when testing women who have no symptoms. A new study would be needed to see if the tests worked in this situation. If the tests work, this could lead to increasing the number of cases detected in early stage disease and decreasing the number of cases detected in late stage disease. If this change in late stage is large, it will likely reduce deaths due to ovarian cancer.

This is a single center prospective observational study to characterize the immune landscape of newly diagnosed epithelial ovarian cancer (OC). Patients with newly diagnosed epithelial OC will be enrolled in 4 different cohorts: A) Newly diagnosed high grade serous or endometroid OC undergoing primary debulking surgery; B) Newly diagnosed high grade serous or endometroid OC undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) followed by interval debulking surgery; C) Rare subtypes of epithelial OC (low grade serous, low grade endometrioid, clear cell, mucinous or carcinosarcoma) undergoing primary debulking surgery; D) Rare subtypes of epithelial OC (low grade serous, low grade endometrioid, clear cell, mucinous or carcinosarcoma) undergoing NACT followed by interval debulking surgery. A cohort of women undergoing adnexectomy for benign pathology will be enrolled (cohort E) for comparative analysis. Enrolled patients will be asked to provide the following biological samples at specified time points: archival and fresh tumor tissue, peripheral blood samples, rectal and vaginal swabs, ascites (when present). The main aim of the study is to characterize the immune landscape of epithelial OC in tumor tissue and peripheral blood and correlate the presence of myeloid-derived suppressive cells (MDSCs) and other immune infiltrates and of the systemic immune response with progression free interval (PFI) in epithelial OC.
