About this study

Official title: A Clinical Trial to Develop a Peritoneal Carcinomatosis Index (PCI) in Ovarian

  • Primary objectives: To develop peritoneal carcinomatosis index (PCI) for ovarian cancer, tubal cancer and primary peritoneal cancer that can represent perioperative intraperitoneal tumor burden objectively
  • Secondary objectives: To establish the relationship and find out clinical significance between PCI, tumor location and tumor characteristics
Read the detailed description

Patients with primary ovarian cancer

  • Informed consent
  • Digital photography \& Checking PCI (tumor size, number, and Characteristics)
  • Postoperative surveillance(tumor marker, image and physical examination)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ovarian Cancer, run by National Cancer Center, Korea at 1 site in South Korea.

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 4 inclusion and 1 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 28 Mar 2013. 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 South Korea. 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?

Devleopment for the peritoneal carcinomatosis index (PCI) (time frame: 55 months). 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 28 Mar 2013.
