New treatment option for Metastatic Ovarian Carcinoma
Official title Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy (PIPAC) Associated With Systemic Chemotherapy in Women With Advanced Ovarian Cancer
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04811703
What this study is testing
What is Combined PIPAC / IV chemotherapy treatment?
Combined PIPAC / IV chemotherapy treatment is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for metastatic ovarian carcinoma.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- Women with a history of tumor response insufficient to allow complete cytoreductive surgery after three cycles of prior neoadjuvant systemic carboplatin-paclitaxel chemotherapy will be prospectively enrolled in this phase I study. After providing written informed consent and confirmation of unresectable disease by multidisciplinary assessment, patients will undergo three cycles of combined chemotherapy consisting of Pressurized Intraperitoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy (PIPAC) with doxorubicin and cisplatin at escalating dose levels, combined with systemic intravenous chemotherapy using carboplatin and paclitaxel at standard doses.
