Who may be able to join

Show all 18Show fewer
  • absolute neutrophil count >/= 1500/mcL
  • Platelets > /= 100,000 /mcl
  • Hemoglobin >/= 8 g/dl
  • Total bilirubin </= 1.5 x the institutional ULN
  • AST, ALT </= 3 x the institutional ULN
  • Creatinine </= the institutional ULN
  • Women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) prior to study entry, for the duration of study participation, and for 90 days following completion of therapy. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician immediately.
  • A female of child-bearing potential is any woman (regardless of sexual orientation, having undergone a tubal ligation, or remaining celibate by choice) who meets the following criteria:
  • Has not undergone a hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy; or
  • Has not been naturally postmenopausal for at least 12 consecutive months (i.e., has had menses at any time in the preceding 12 consecutive months).
  • Patients must be able to swallow and retain oral medications.
  • Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent.

Who cannot join

  • Chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or other cancer therapy within 4 weeks prior to starting study treatment. Subjects must have recovered from prior treatment-related to toxicities to grade 1 or baseline (excluding alopecia and clinically stable toxicities requiring ongoing medical management, such as hypothyroidism from prior immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment).
  • Subjects may not be receiving any other investigational agents for the treatment of the cancer under study.
  • Brain metastases
  • History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to Lynparza or other agents used in study.
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that, in the opinion of the investigator, would limit compliance with study requirements.
  • Subjects must not be pregnant or nursing due to the potential for congenital abnormalities and the potential of this regimen to harm nursing infants.

About this study

Official title: Pre-Surgical Window Pilot Investigation of the Effect of PARP Inhibition on the Cellular and Molecular Changes in Primary Ovarian and Breast Cancer

Study involves surgery for cytoreduction or laparoscopy to determine if you are a candidate for tumor debulking or a tissue biopsy. Following this surgery you will receive chemotherapy. This study will administer 7 days of treatment with a targeted therapy called Lynparza. Lynparza and/or other PARP inhibitors have been FDA approved for the treatment of ovarian and breast cancer. Tissue biopsy will be done before a 7 day course of Lynparza in order to correlate molecular changes to response to treatment. Participation in this trial will require an additional tumor biopsy which will occur either before or after treatment of Lynparza.

What is being measured

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

  1. Measure DNA damage response to PARP inhibition

    Paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test will be used to examine if there is a significant change in ADP ribosylated proteome, DNA damage, apoptosis and change in RAD 51 foci between pre-and post-treatment cancer specimens.

    Measured: Following 7 days of Lynparza

  2. Characterize changes in ADP ribosylation to PARP inhibition

    Spearman rank correlation will be computed to estimate the correlation between the changes in ADP ribosylation with the response (measured by immunohistochemistry: γH2AX and caspase -3 cleavage)

    Measured: Following 7 days of Lynparza

  3. Correlate DNA damage response to ADP ribosylated proteome

    Paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test will be used to examine if there is a significant change in ADP ribosylated proteome, DNA damage, apoptosis and change in RAD 51 foci between pre-and post-treatment cancer specimens

    Measured: Following 7 days of Lynparza

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Lynparza in people with Ovarian Cancer and Breast Cancer, run by University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center 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 18 inclusion and 6 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 20 Mar 2023. 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?

Measure DNA damage response to PARP inhibition (time frame: Following 7 days of Lynparza). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 20 Mar 2023.
