NCT02311907
This randomized phase III trial is studying glutathione to see how well it works in preventing peripheral neuropathy caused by paclitaxel and carboplatin in patients with ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, and/or primary peritoneal cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Chemoprotective drugs, such as glutathione, may help prevent peripheral neuropathy caused by paclitaxel and carboplatin. It is not yet known whether glutathione is more effective than a placebo in preventing peripheral neuropathy.
NCT02262455
This is a Phase I study to test the safety, pharmacokinetics and effectiveness of STM 434 alone, or in combination with liposomal doxorubicin, in patients with ovarian cancer or other advanced solid tumors.
NCT00158379
Time to progression (physical examination and radiologic imaging
NCT02317120
Primary objective To determine BRCA1 and BRCA2 variants in 250 Romanian women with breast/ovarian cancer selected for likeliness to harbor germline mutations in these genes by specific criteria for high-risk status including age at disease onset. Secondary objective Considering the fact that BRCA testing is not a routine procedure in Romania and mutation prevalence varies in different populations, we intend to look for the founder mutation in our population, running full BRCA genes sequencing to a representative population sample. This would allow a more targeted approach to real-life practice and would ensure personalized solutions for every patient in need.
NCT00003657
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the combination of amifostine and high dose chemotherapy with blood stem cell support. Amifostine is a druf developed to protect normal tissues against the toxicities of chemotherapy and radiotherapy and has reduced the side effects of chemotherapy given at conventional doses.
NCT00550654
RATIONALE: Specialized radiation therapy that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to the tumor may kill more tumor cells and cause less damage to normal tissue. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well conformal radiation therapy works in treating patients with metastatic cancer outside the brain.
NCT01308944
This research is looking at the effect of biobehavioral factors such as stress and whether these factors alter how the body responds to chemotherapy, one of the purposes of this study is to determine if the addition of a beta-blocker such as Propranolol (Inderal) is tolerable when given with chemotherapy in the treatment of newly diagnosed ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. An additional purpose of the study is to understand if behavioral factors such as depression and anxiety can alter different blood markers that affect tumor vascularity. The Investigator wishes to determine whether the use of beta-blocker drugs such as Inderal, might alter these behavioral factors by drawing blood prior to and after the administration of Inderal as well as giving behavioral questionaires at different time points. Beta-blockers are commonly used for the treatment of hypertension, protection of the heart after a heart attack, and irregularities in heartbeats. Altering these factors might boost the immune system and affect other areas of cancer biology, thereby allowing the chemotherapy to be more effective. The significance of this research is that it may help improve our treatments of this disease in the future.
NCT01469793
This multicenter, open-label, dose-escalating study will assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of DMOT4039A in participants with unresectable pancreatic or platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. Cohorts of participants will receive multiple ascending intravenous doses of DMOT4039A.
NCT01521143
As \< 10% of the necessary patients required by the protocol were recruited and the data were not intended to support a labeling claim, it was determined that the abbreviated clinical study report (CSR) was the appropriate reporting format. No efficacy analyses were performed as the trial was terminated early with incomplete enrollment of \< 10%. The purpose of this study is to determine if an investigational cell therapy called Cvac can help epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) from returning when administered to patients who are in complete remission after surgical removal of their tumor followed by standard first-line (Part A) or second-line (Part B) chemotherapy. Following remission, patients will undergo leukapheresis for the manufacture of the study agent. After completion of chemotherapy and confirmation of remission, patients will enter the treatment phase of the study.
NCT00637390
Ovarian cancer cannot grow without recruiting new blood vessels. Studies in humans have identified a novel cell population, termed vascular leukocytes (VLCs). While VLCs are not cancer cells, they support the growth of ovarian cancer cells by stimulating the growth of new blood vessels which provide the cancer with nutrients. VLCs make a protein termed CD52. An antibody therapeutic, Alemtuzumab (also know as Campath), that kills cells that make the CD52 protein has been successfully used to treat certain lymphomas (a type of blood cell cancer) that make CD52 protein. The purpose of this study is to determine if Alemtuzumab given subcutaneously (under the skin)can be safely given to patients with ovarian, fallopian, or primary peritoneal cancers to kill VLCs and determine if Alemtuzumab, by eliminating VLCs, can restrict tumor growth or increase response rates to chemotherapy given after the discontinuation of chemotherapy.
NCT01472783
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of veliparib in ovarian cancer patients with known BRCA 1/2 mutations who do no longer respond to conventional chemotherapy.
NCT00744718
This is a phase II trial to investigate the effect of bevacizumab and carboplatin in patients with platin resistant ovarian cancer.
NCT02963688
PURPOSE: To investigate the prevalence and clinical correlation of the germline BRCA 1/2 mutation in Korean patients with high grade(HG) serous and/or endometrioid epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). PATIENTS AND METHODS: In a nationwide case-control study on EOC conducted in Korea between 2010 and 2015, 298 Korean women with HG serous and/or endometrioid EOC were tested for gBRCA 1/2 mutation, regardless of the family history. Mutation screening was performed using the Ion AmpliSeq BRCA 1/2 Panel (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA) and Ion PGM platform according to the manufacturer's instructions. Clinical characteristics including survival outcome was assessed in gBRCAm carriers.
NCT01600573
This clinical trial shall clarify the efficacy and safety of pazopanib in combination with weekly topotecan in patients with platinum-resistant or intermediate platinum-sensitive recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian and peritoneal carcinoma
NCT00862836
This multi-centre, non-randomized open phase I/randomized phase II study will be conducted in 70 patients (10 in phase I, 60 in phase II) with platinum-refractory recurrent epithelial cancer of the ovary, fallopian tube or peritoneum. A total of approximately 5 national centers will participate in phase I of the study. If the starting criteria for phase II of the study are met at the end of phase I, a total of approximately 20 national centers will participate in phase II of the study.
NCT01522820
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best schedule of vaccine therapy with or without sirolimus in treating patients with cancer-testis antigen (NY-ESO-1) expressing solid tumors. Biological therapies, such as sirolimus, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Vaccines made from a person's white blood cells mixed with tumor proteins may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells that express NY-ESO-1. Infusing the vaccine directly into a lymph node may cause a stronger immune response and kill more tumor cells. It is not yet known whether vaccine therapy works better when given with or without sirolimus in treating solid tumors.
NCT01521325
This research is being conducted to determine the biodistribution of radiolabeled amatuximab in tumor and non-tumor tissues in subjects with mesothelin over expressing cancer including mesothelioma, pancreatic, ovarian or non small cell lung cancer.
NCT02033551
This is an extension study to evaluate the safety of Veliparib monotherapy or in combination with Carboplatin plus Paclitaxel or modified Folinic Acid/Fluorouracil/Irinotecan (FOLFIRI) in subjects with solid tumors.
NCT02910622
The choice of treatments for cancers by systemic way - chemotherapy, hormone therapy and targeted therapies - is currently defined by criteria for population groups and not to an individual. These expensive treatments - in financial terms and quality of life - will be effective for some and administered unnecessarily for other because there is no predictive test of response for a given individual. For breast cancer, the usual treatment includes the first surgery and adjuvant therapies (chemotherapy, hormonal therapy ...) whose effectiveness will be assessed after many years as the occurrence or not of a recurrence or metastases. These systemic treatments can also be administered before surgery to reduce the tumor volume and secondarily allow less mutilating surgery: it is the principle of treatment neo adjuvant. In this case, the efficiency will be evaluated more quickly. In practice, a patient with breast cancer suspicion has a biopsy which confirms the diagnosis and defined the parameters (hormone receptors, cytological grade, receptor monoclonal antibodies ...) that guide to the most appropriate type of treatment. Tumor size is evaluated in neo adjuvant pre-treatment by imaging: mammography, ultrasound and MRI. At the end of this medication, the evaluation of the response is achieved by radiology and surgery. Pathological examination evaluates and precise response by the criteria of Chevallier and / or Sataloff. An ex vivo test for predicting the response of cells to different chemotherapy regimens, the oncogramme, was developed by Oncomedics, a young company whose technology is derived from the University of Limoges. Clinical response and / or histopathological could be compared in a reasonable time (2-6 months), the results of the oncogramme proposed by Oncomedics whether the efficiency obtained in vivo is that predicted by the ex vivo test. It is the same in the metastatic setting when there is an available target for biopsy and assessment of response. The management of ovarian cancer in advanced stages can also benefit from a radiological and histopathological evaluation strategy before and after systemic treatment to compare the in vivo results with those predicted by ex vivo by Oncomedics.
NCT01630018
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of belotecan or topotecan in patients with recurrent or refractory ovarian cancer (AOC).
