Active clinical trials for "Ovarian Neoplasms"

Primary Objectives: To determine the efficacy of Gleevec in patients with recurrent platinum-resistant, taxane-resistant epithelial ovarian cancer, primary peritoneal cancer, or fallopian tube cancer whose tumor expresses either c-KIT, platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGRF), or ABL. To determine the nature and degree of toxicity of Gleevec in this cohort of patients.

The main objective of the trial is to document the response rate in patients affected by metastatic ovarian cancer, treated with NGR-hTNF plus doxorubicin. Safety will be established by clinical and laboratory assessment according to NCI-CTC criteria.

This is a single center phase II trial designed to optimize a clinical platform of lymphodepleting chemotherapy and T-cell suppression to promote the persistence, function, and expansion of allogeneic natural killer (NK) cells in patients with recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube, primary peritoneal cancer and advanced metastatic breast cancer.

This phase II trial studies the side effects of sunitinib malate and how well it works in treating patients with ovarian cancer that is persistent or has come back. Sunitinib malate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor.

To determine the safety and immunogenicity profile of two (2) different doses of the vaccine DPX-0907 to treat breast, ovarian and prostate cancer.

The current standard treatment for ovarian cancer, tubal cancer, and primary peritoneal cancer is maximal cytoreductive surgery followed by chemotherapy. Recent randomized trials of Gynecologic Oncology Group (GOG) revealed the survival gain in intraperitoneal chemotherapy compared to the intravenous chemotherapy after the optimal cytoreduction in ovarian cancer (GOG#104, GOG#114, GOG#172). Experts attributed such survival gain to the earlier cycles of intraperitoneal chemotherapy when adhesion was minimal from extensive cytoreductive procedures. Hyperthermia has an anti-cancer activity itself. Especially, hyperthermia promotes chemotherapy to penetrate deeper into the cancer tissue. Therefore, the combination of intraperitoneal chemotherapy with hyperthermia theoretically could lead to higher response rate and better survival outcomes. *HIPEC: hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy There will be an interim analysis when 50% of patients are enrolled. At the interim analysis, a statistical test will be performed. The nominal significance levels will be determined later. The exact nominal significance level will be determined based on the exact number of events at the time of the interim analysis. The Stopping boundaries will be calculated using an O'Brien-Fleming error spending function

This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of veliparib when given together with carboplatin, paclitaxel, and bevacizumab in treating patients with newly diagnosed stage II-IV ovarian epithelial, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cells to repair themselves from damage and survive. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, 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. Bevacizumab, a type of drug called a monoclonal antibody, blocks tumor growth by targeting certain cells and preventing the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow. Giving veliparib together with carboplatin, paclitaxel, and bevacizumab may kill more tumor cells.

This study is designed to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and preliminary efficacy of DTA-H19 administered intraperitoneally (IP) in subjects with advanced stage ovarian cancer, or primary peritoneal carcinoma

The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose of Genexol®-PM plus Carboplatin and evaluate the efficacy and safety of Genexol®-PM plus Carboplatin regimen in subjects with advanced ovarian cancer.

ON 01910.Na has undergone preclinical and clinical phase I studies showing activity in patients with progressing ovarian cancer resistant to platinum-based chemotherapies. This study will look at a larger population of patients to determine whether treatment with ON 01910.Na has an effect on progression free survival rates in patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. ON 01910.Na will be given as an intravenous infusion over 2 hours on days 1, 4, 8, 11, 15, and 18 of a 28-day cycle. Patients will be treated for 6 or more cycles.
