Predictors of Relapse of Ovarian, Peritoneal, and Fallopian Tube Cancers

This study will develop a blood test that can be used to predict a relapse of ovarian, peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer. The type of testing is called proteomics, or the study of proteins in living cells. The test will identify certain proteins that might represent a pattern, or "fingerprint," indicating increased risk of disease relapse. Women with Stage III or IV epithelial ovarian cancer, primary peritoneal cancer, or fallopian tube cancer that is in remission may be eligible for this study. Candidates are screened with a medical history and physical examination, blood tests, review of pathology report from surgery, and computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of the abdomen and pelvis (and chest if the cancer spread to the chest). Participants have a clinic visit every 3 months for a physical examination (including a pelvic examination), blood draw for routine and research tests, and review of how they have been feeling. Every 6 months they have CT scans of the abdomen, pelvis, and possibly the chest. When a patient has been in remission for 4 years, blood draws are done every 6 months and CT scans are done yearly. Patients whose cancer returns (based on a CA-125 blood test, CT scans, or physical examination) end their participation in the study. Patients with an abnormal CT scan or physical examination may be asked to undergo a tumor biopsy (surgical removal of a piece of tumor tissue) for research purposes.

A Study of TRK-950 in Combinations With Anti-Cancer Treatment Regimens in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

The main purpose of this study is to establish the safety and the recommended dose of TRK-950 in combination with FOLFIRI, Gemcitabine / Cisplatin, Gemcitabine / Carboplatin, Ramucirumab / Paclitaxel, PD1 inhibitors (Nivolumab or Pembrolizumab), and Imiquimod Cream, Bevacizumab, Gemcitabine / Carboplatin / Bevacizumab, Pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD), Carboplatin / PLD / Bevacizumab and Paclitaxel for selected advanced solid tumors.

A Study to Assess Anti-Tumor Activity of Intravenously (IV) Infused Carboplatin With Mirvetuximab Soravtansine in Participants With Newly Diagnosed Folate Receptor Alpha (FRα)Expressing Advanced-Stage Serous Epithelial Ovarian, Fallopian Tube or Primary Peritoneal Cancer.

Cancer is a condition where cells in a specific part of body grow and reproduce uncontrollably. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of neoadjuvant carboplatin and mirvetuximab soravtansine in participants with folate receptor alpha (FRα) -expressing advanced-stage serous epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer (EOC). Mirvetuximab Soravtansine (MIRV) is an investigational antibody drug conjugate designed to selectively kill cancer cells. The antibody (protein) part of MIRV targets tumors by delivering a cell-killing drug to cancer cells carrying a protein called folate receptor alpha (FRα). This is a single arm study in adult participants with advanced-stage Fédération Internationale de Gynécologie et d'Obstétrique (FIGO) III-IV FRα-expressing serous EOC. Around 140 participants will be enrolled in the study at approximately 80 sites in the United States. Participants will receive intravenous infusion of MIRV in combination with carboplatin on day 1 of each cycle, every 21 days for up to 6 - 9 Cycles. The total study duration will be approximately 3 years . There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic and may require frequent medical assessments, blood tests, and scans.

89Zr-DFO-Mirvetuximab PET/CT Imaging for Companion Diagnosis and Response Evaluation in Ovarian Cancer

Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the fifth leading cause of cancer-related death in women, with approximately 320,000 new cases and 200,000 deaths annually worldwide, and its incidence is rising. Current treatment mainly relies on surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy, but EOC frequently develops platinum resistance and recurrence. Mirvetuximab soravtansine, a folate receptor alpha (FRα)-targeting antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), was approved by the FDA in 2024 for FRα-positive, platinum-resistant EOC. However, it carries significant toxicities (ocular, interstitial lung disease, peripheral neuropathy) and a modest objective response rate of 33%, with rapid acquired resistance, underscoring the need for patient selection and response prediction via targeted imaging. FRα, a GPI-anchored cell-surface glycoprotein encoded by FOLR1, is minimally expressed in normal adult tissues but overexpressed in various epithelial tumors, including ovarian cancer. Its overexpression promotes invasion, metastasis, and potentially drug resistance, making it a promising theranostic target. While ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT is widely used, it has limitations in detecting low-activity or small lesions and shows suboptimal sensitivity/specificity for nodal metastases. Radiolabeled folate probes (e.g., ⁹⁹ᵐTc-EC20) have demonstrated excellent FRα-targeting and clinical utility in selecting patients for FRα-directed therapies. Our team has developed ⁸⁹Zr-DFO-Mirvetuximab by conjugating the anti-FRα monoclonal antibody with the chelator p-isothiocyanatobenzyl-desferrioxamine B and radiolabeling with ⁸⁹Zr. Preclinically, this probe exhibited favorable stability, safety, and specific targeting of FRα-high tumors in xenograft models. Building on these results, we plan a clinical study enrolling 20 patients with newly diagnosed stage IV or first-recurrent EOC, who will undergo both ⁸⁹Zr-DFO-Mirvetuximab PET/CT and ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT. The study aims to correlate radiotracer uptake with FRα expression and to demonstrate the superior performance of ⁸⁹Zr-DFO-Mirvetuximab in identifying and delineating ovarian cancer lesions compared to ¹⁸F-FDG

Fasting During Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Patient With Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

The goal of this clinical trial is to see if timed fasting (periods of time that you don't eat) in participants who are receiving chemotherapy prior to surgery is achievable, safe and can improve quality of life, symptoms and outcomes (results) compared to participants who receive standard dietary recommendations in individuals being treated for epithelial ovarian cancer . The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is it feasible to use intermittent fasting during neoadjuvant chemotherapy? * Is it safe to use intermittent fasting during neoadjuvant chemotherapy? * Do participants find it acceptable to use intermittent fasting during neoadjuvant chemotherapy? Researchers will compare participants who receive standard dietary recommendations to see which method is more achievable, safe, and able to improve quality of life, symptoms and outcomes. Participants will: * Receive either the fasting intervention (schedule of times when you do not eat) or standard diet recommendations for 6-9 weeks prior to your surgery starting with the second cycle of chemotherapy. * All participants will be asked to complete chemotherapy and surgery, cancer imaging, baseline screening tests, nutritional assessments, food diaries, blood tests, and surveys about wellbeing. * Participants in the intervention group will be asked to follow a fasting schedule that consists of not eating for 16 hours a day followed by normal eating for the remaining 8 hours of the day for 5 days in a row followed by 2 days of regular eating each week.

Centralization and Oncologic Outcomes in Ovarian Cancer

This is a multicenter, observational, retrospective and prospective study conducted within the REMO (Reggio Emilia - Modena) network in the Emilia-Romagna region (Italy), promoted by AUSL-IRCCS of Reggio Emilia.

Health-Economic Evaluation of Early Diagnosis of Epithalial Ovarian Cancer Recurrence Using the ROMA Score: a Prospective Multicenter Randomized Trial

In this study, we hypothesize that calculating the ROMA score (CA125 + HE4 blood marker assay) will enable faster, more targeted diagnosis and management of epithelial ovarian cancer recurrence than the CA125 marker assay alone. This early identification of recurrence would then improve patients' quality of life, since it would increase the chances of benefiting from less invasive and less morbid surgery. It would also reduce the cost of patient management following disease progression. If our hypothesis is confirmed, the results of this study will enable us to update the recommendations for post-treatment follow-up of patients in remission from epithelial ovarian cancer, as well as reimbursing the HE4 marker assay (and thus the calculation of the ROMA score).
