Compares treatment options for Ovarian Cancer
Official title A Study Comparing Perioperative Stress Reduction vs. Standard of Care in Ovarian Cancer (PRESERVE)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05429970
What this study is testing
What is Propranolol?
Propranolol is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for ovarian cancer.
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
- The purpose of this study is to see if propranolol and etodolac along with mind-body resilience training/MBRT and music therapy help participants who are experiencing physiological stress before, during, and after primary debulking surgery/PDS or IDS and also if it's better than the standard-of-care approach (no intervention for reducing stress).
