Who may be able to join

  • Histological or cytological confirmation of epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian cancer from any previous time point

Who cannot join

  • Co-morbid systemic illnesses or other severe concurrent disease, which in the judgment of the treating oncologist, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study or interfere significantly with the proper assessment of safety and toxicity of the prescribed regimens
  • Symptoms (other than anxiety, depression, or other psychological symptoms) that, in the opinion, of the treating oncologist are a direct result of cancer recurrence; (examples of symptoms that would preclude enrollment include unintentional weight loss and new abdominal pain)
  • Receiving any other prescribed therapy treatment for ovarian cancer
  • Any of the following because this study involves an agent that has known genotoxic, mutagenic and teratogenic effects:
  • Pregnant women

About this study

Official title: A Pilot Trial to Evaluate the Feasibility Auranofin (Ridaura®) for Asymptomatic Patients With First-Recurrence Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

This pilot clinical trial studies auranofin in treating patients with epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer. Immunosuppressive therapy, such as auranofin, may be an effective treatment for epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To demonstrate the feasibility of conducting a 10-patient pilot study in asymptomatic ovarian cancer patients with cancer antigen (CA 125) elevation.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To explore whether oral gold therapy either stabilizes or lowers the CA 125 level and maintains patients in an asymptomatic state and to provide descriptive data on tumor response and duration of response.

II. To acquire qualitative data on patients' perceptions of learning of CA 125 elevation.

III. To explore whether immunohistochemical staining for PKC iota expression in resected tumor samples appears to be associated with clinical outcomes with auranofin.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive auranofin orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 6 months for 2 years.

Being tested
auranofin, laboratory biomarker analysis
Medical subject headings
Fallopian Tube Neoplasms, Carcinoma, Ovarian Epithelial

What is being measured

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

  1. Feasibility of conducting a 10-patient pilot study in asymptomatic ovarian cancer patients using CA 125 elevation

    To demonstrate the feasibility of conducting a 10-patient pilot study in asymptomatic ovarian cancer patients with CA 125 elevation. This study could potentially serve as a paradigm to investigate agents that might eventually be used as maintenance therapy in patients at high risk for recurrent disease.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Immunohistochemical staining for PKCt expression in resected tumor samples with Auranofin

    To explore whether immunohistochemical staining for PKCt expression in resected tumor samples appears to be associated with clinical outcomes with Auranofin.

    Measured: up to 2 years

  2. Patients' perceptions of learning of CA 125 elevation

    Measured: up to 2 years

  3. Oral gold therapy influence on the CA 125 levels

    To explore whether oral gold therapy either stabilizes or lowers the CA 125 level and maintains patients in an asymptomatic state and to provide descriptive data on tumor response and duration of response.

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing auranofin and laboratory biomarker analysis in people with Recurrent Fallopian Tube Cancer and Recurrent Ovarian Epithelial Cancer, run by Mayo Clinic 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 13 inclusion and 7 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 2 Aug 2019. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Feasibility of conducting a 10-patient pilot study in asymptomatic ovarian cancer patients using CA 125 elevation (time frame: Up to 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01747798, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 2 Aug 2019.
