NCT01504126
This early phase I trial studies giving propranolol hydrochloride with standard chemotherapy in treating patients with ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer. Biological therapies, such as propranolol hydrochloride, blocks certain chemicals that affect the heart and this may stimulate the immune system and allow the chemotherapy to kill more tumor cells.
NCT01196429
This phase II trial studies how well temsirolimus, carboplatin, and paclitaxel as first-line therapy works in treating patients with newly diagnosed stage III-IV clear cell ovarian cancer. Temsirolimus may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. 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 or by stopping them from dividing. Giving temsirolimus with combination chemotherapy may be an effective treatment for ovarian cancer.
NCT01144442
This is an open-label, pilot study in patients with a diagnosis of recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal carcinoma who have undergone standard cytoreductive surgery following by adjuvant chemotherapy. It is expected that this first surgery was optimal - as defined as no residual tumor \> or = 1 centimeter. Patient has clinical evidence of a first recurrence. The patient undergoes surgery and isotonic normal saline (perfusate) heated and administered into the abdomen, followed by hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy infusion (HIPC) administering carboplatin (chemotherapy). Six weeks after surgery patients will receive adjuvant chemotherapy with Paclitaxel and Carboplatin for 6 cycles.
NCT02493972
This is a Multicenter prospective diagnostic study.
NCT01432145

NCT03448354
Ovarian cancer is a lethal malignancy and reported as a fifth leading cause of death in all age in the developed country. Most of the ovarian cancer patients are diagnosed at advanced stages due to an inadequate screening tool and a lack of clinical symptoms. Optimal cytoreductive surgery with no gross residual disease followed platinum-based adjuvant chemotherapy has been the most effective therapeutic strategy in the treatment of advanced ovarian cancer. However, the optimal surgical procedure is not always possible, especially in patients with extensive disease or women with poor performance status. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC) followed interval debulking surgery (IDS) is an alternative therapeutic option for these patients. There is growing interest in the use of HIPEC (hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy) for ovarian cancer, and early data on HIPEC as a component of front-line therapy of advanced ovarian cancer are encouraging. However, intraperitoneal chemotherapy is not actively used in the treatment of ovarian cancer due to the catheter-related complications or inconvenience. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of HIPEC after interval debulking surgery in advanced ovarian cancer patients.
NCT00511641
The goal of this research study is to learn more about how women feel about an ovarian cancer screening program that involves getting a blood test to measure CA 125 levels. This includes finding out about women's quality of life and whether they are concerned or worried about their risk of developing cancer. This study also seeks to find out whether elevated CA 125 levels affect participants in terms of cancer worries or concerns.

The aim of this study is to evaluatie the adhesion to the network of care of people at genetic risk of cancer in Midi-Pyrénées (GENEPY).
NCT02069158
This is a phase Ib single arm, open-label, multiple dose, dose escalating, safety, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic study of the combination of PF-05212384 with paclitaxel and carboplatin. The study will be conducted in adult patients with advanced breast, NSCLC, ovarian or endometrial, small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and Head and Neck (HNSCC) cancer for whom there is an indication to the use of paclitaxel and carboplatin. Successive cohorts of patients will receive escalating doses of PF-05212384 in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin, starting at a dose level determined to be the 60% of single agent MTD. The study will consist of two parts: the dose finding part (Part 1) and the expansion part (Part 2). During Part 1 patients with breast, NSCLC, ovary and endometrial, small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and Head and Neck (HNSCC) cancer will be enrolled. During Part 2, only patients with ovarian cancer will be enrolled. In Part 1, a 3+3 design is employed. Once the MTD of the combination is defined in Part 1, Part 2 is performed for a better definition of the safety profile, of the potential antitumor activity and of the pharmacodynamic effects of the combination; it will be conducted in at least 12 patients with ovarian cancer. Approximately 40 patients are expected to be enrolled in the study overall.

NCT00088413
Background: * Many cancers produce two proteins, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and mucin-1 (MUC-1). * The PANVAC-V (PANVAC vaccinia) priming vaccine and PANVAC-F (PANVAC fowlpox) boosting vaccine contain human genes that cause production of CEA and MUC-1, which can be used as a target for the immune system to attack the cancer. The vaccines also contain genes that cause production of other proteins that enhance immune activity. * Sargramostim is a protein that boosts the immune system. Objectives: * To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of PANVAC-V and PANVAC-F in patients with advanced cancer. * To document the immune response to the vaccines and any anti-tumor responses that may occur. Eligibility: Patients 18 years of age and older with advanced cancer whose tumors produce CEA or MUC-1 protein Design: * This trial has three cohorts: the first cohort includes 10 patients with advanced colorectal cancer and 10 to 15 patients with any advanced non-colorectal cancer that produces either EA or mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter 1 (MCU-1); the second cohort includes 12 patients with advanced breast cancer and the third cohort includes 14 patients with advanced ovarian cancer. * All patients receive PANVAC-V on study day 1, followed by PANVAC-F on days 15, 29 and 43 then every 28 days for up to 12 vaccines followed by every 3 months until disease progression or toxicity. The vaccines are given by injection under the skin. Sargramostim is injected at the vaccination site on the day of each vaccination and for the next 3 days following vaccination. * Patients whose scans show that their disease has progressed, but who are otherwise clinically stable may revert back to monthly injections. * Patients undergo apheresis to collect white blood cells (lymphocytes) on day 1 and day 71 of the study to measure the immune response to the treatment. Blood is collected through a needle placed in one arm and directed through a cell separator machine where the lymphocytes are extracted. The rest of the blood components are returned to the patient through the same needle. * Patients are monitored with frequent blood tests and periodic imaging tests (scans) to monitor for safety and the response to treatment.
NCT00652691
RATIONALE: Giving colony-stimulating factors, such as G-CSF help stem cells move from the patient's bone marrow to the blood so they can be collected and stored. Combination chemotherapy is then given to prepare the bone marrow for the stem cell transplant. The stem cells are returned to the patient to replace the blood-forming cells that were destroyed by the chemotherapy. PURPOSE: This randomized trial is studying the side effects and best dose of topotecan when given together with high-dose cyclophosphamide, and carboplatin followed by an autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplant in treating patients with recurrent ovarian cancer or primary peritoneal cancer.
NCT03412526
Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) with tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in combination with lymphodepletion and high-dose interleukin 2. Most TIL ACT trials have been conducted as salvage therapy for patients who already had failed numerous treatments; many study participants presented with multiple metastases, frequently in visceral organs and even in the brain. The effectiveness of TIL ACT in eradicating metastatic tumors of the responding patients underlines the value of this immunotherapeutic approach. Recent developments in the identification and selection of tumor-specific T-cell populations have facilitated the implementation of TIL ACT also in nonmelanoma malignancies. Building on the experience of Ella Lemelbaum Institute, Sheba Medical Center with ACT TIL in the treatment of metastatic melanoma, the Dept. of Oncology, Tel HaShomer has expanded the use of TIL ACT following a reduced intensity, non-myeloablative, lymphodepleting induction regimen to metastatic Melanoma, Ovarian (OC) and Cervical cancer patients. The rationale supporting these studies is to further develop the ACT TIL procedure and expand its applicability to metastatic OC and cervical cancers.
