About this study

Official title: Orthotopic Propagation of Primary Human Ovarian Tumors for Preclinical Investigation of Novel Anti-Tumor Agents.

RATIONALE: Collecting and storing samples of tumor tissue and ascites fluid from patients to test in the laboratory may help the study of cancer.

PURPOSE: This pre-clinical research study is collecting tissue samples and ascites fluid from patients with stage III or stage IV ovarian/primary peritoneal/fallopian tube epithelial cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • To generate a translational ovarian cancer model using tumor tissue and cells from patients with stage III-IV ovarian/primary peritoneal/fallopian tube epithelial cancer for drug response and development.

OUTLINE: Tissue and fluid samples are collected at the time of surgery or paracentesis and used in laboratory experiments and in animal models. Health data is collected from patient medical records before, during, and after surgery.

After surgery, patients are followed up for 5 years.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Establishment of a "live" library of primary ovarian epithelial tumors

    Our approach is to establish a "live" library of primary tumors from patients diagnosed with ovarian cancer by transplanting this tissue into a host mouse model. This preclinical model system will allow us to test the response to standard and novel therapeutics and will provide a perpetual tumor archive for future experiments that will probe critical molecular pathways involved in the pathogenesis of ovarian cancer and similar cancer types (primary peritoneal and fallopian tube).

    Measured: 5 year follow up of outcome.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ovarian Cancer, run by Vanderbilt University at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Dec 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Establishment of a "live" library of primary ovarian epithelial tumors (time frame: 5 year follow up of outcome.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Dec 2015; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
