Active clinical trials for "Ovarian Neoplasms"

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Thalidomide may stop the growth of ovarian cancer by stopping blood flow to the tumor. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well giving carboplatin together with thalidomide works compared to carboplatin alone in treating patients with ovarian epithelial cancer.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of liposomal cisplatin in treating patients who have recurrent ovarian cancer.

RATIONALE: Radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. Peripheral stem cell transplantation may be able to replace immune cells that were destroyed by therapy used to kill tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of radiolabeled monoclonal antibody plus peripheral stem cell transplantation in treating patients who have refractory or recurrent ovarian epithelial cancer.

SU5416, a novel antiangiogenesis agent, has been shown to be a potent and selective inhibitor of the tyrosine kinase activity of FlK-1 (a downstream effector of VEGF) in vitro and to inhibit the growth of endothelial cells. Since VEGF mRNA levels and vessel counts in tumor tissues have been shown to be inversely related to prognosis in ovarian cancer, SU5416 may prove to be a useful agent in this disease. Platinum agents currently provide the most effective treatment for ovarian cancer. However, ovarian cancer often becomes refractory to platinum therapy, leaving the patient with a poor prognosis. This is a phase I study designed to: a) determine a dose level of carboplatin to use in combination with an established dose of SU5416 for treatment of patients with platinum-refractory ovarian cancer, b) assess the side effect profile of SU5416 and carboplatin combination therapy, c) characterize any alterations in SU5416 pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters when given in combination with carboplatin, d) characterize carboplatin pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters when given in combination with SU5416, e) do exploratory studies to assess the effect of SU5416 on platinum-DNA adduct levels, f) do exploratory studies to assess any alterations in ERCC1 mRNA levels when carboplatin is administered with SU5416, and g) obtain preliminary evidence of the ability of SU5416 to reverse platinum resistance in patients with platinum-refractory ovarian carcinoma.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known if carboplatin is more effective with or without liposomal doxorubicin in treating recurrent ovarian epithelial or primary peritoneal cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to determine the effectiveness of carboplatin with or without liposomal doxorubicin in treating patients who have recurrent ovarian epithelial or primary peritoneal cancer.

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of ISIS 5132 in treating patients who have metastatic or recurrent ovarian cancer that has not responded to previous chemotherapy.

Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of gene therapy in treating patients with ovarian cancer that has not responded to previous treatment. Inserting the p53 gene into a person's cancer cells may improve the body's ability to fight cancer or make the cancer cells more sensitive to treatment.

Clinical trials, with a particular focus on recurrent ovarian cancer, play a crucial role in assessing the safety and efficacy of novel treatments for this condition. These trials serve as essential tools to determine whether new medications outperform traditional therapies, providing substantial evidence to support their widespread adoption. By actively participating in recurrent ovarian cancer observational study serves pivotal role in expanding the boundaries of medical knowledge and advancing the quality of care provided to those enduring the same condition.

According to the definition of National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN), ovarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a less common subtype of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) . The preliminary trial ANNIE (NCT04376073) shows a promising efficacy and safety profile for the ANNIE combo (anlotinib+niraparib). There is limited progress in targeted therapy for those less common ovarian cancers. In this study (CC-ANNIE), we aim to evaluate the antitumor activity and safety of niraparib combined with anlotinib in patients with platinum-resistant or platinum-refractory OCCC.

Four phase III trials in ovarian cancer consistently showed that front-line poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibition can significantly improve progression-free survival. Based on these findings, current clinical guidelines recommend the olaparib + bevacizumab combination as a maintenance therapy for ovarian cancer patients with BRCA1/2 wild-type or unknown mutation status who have a complete response (CR)/ partial response (PR) after completing bevacizumab-containing first-line therapy. However, bevacizumab is not a NATIONAL MEDICAL PRODUCTS ADMINSTRATION（NMPA）-approved agent for ovarian cancer patients. In this setting, olaparib mono-maintenance therapy has been implemented among patients with BRCA-wild type tumors in clinical practice in China.
