This Phase 3 trial compares two different chemotherapy approaches for women with ovarian sex cord–stromal germ cell tumors. It aims to see which treatment works better and is safer for newly diagnosed stage IIA to IVB disease after surgery.
Jinan, ShandongAges 14–65 - NCT03184753RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Modified immune T cells for high-risk ovarian cancer
This early-phase study tests modified immune T cells to treat high-risk stage III–IV ovarian cancer. It aims to see whether the treatment can be given safely and whether it can help control the cancer.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT07125391RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo plus propranolol before surgery for advanced ovarian cancer
This trial tests adding propranolol (a heart medication) to standard chemotherapy before surgery for advanced high-grade serous ovarian cancer. The goal is to see if this combination helps shrink tumors more effectively.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT07444814RecruitingPhase 1
HWK-007 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called HWK-007, which is designed to target and attack cancer cells while sparing healthy ones. It is for people with specific advanced solid tumors (lung, endometrial, or ovarian cancer) that have not responded well to standard treatments.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT07447050RecruitingPhase 2
Riluzole to Prevent Chemo-Related Cognitive Problems
This pilot study tests whether the drug riluzole can help prevent the thinking and memory problems (often called 'chemobrain') that some people experience during chemotherapy. If you are about to start a chemo regimen containing an anthracycline or platinum drug, you may be able to join.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07460180RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
PARP inhibitor with chemo and HIPEC for ovarian cancer
This trial tests if adding a drug called a PARP inhibitor (which helps block cancer cells from repairing themselves) to standard chemotherapy and heated chemotherapy during surgery (HIPEC) can work better together for ovarian cancer that has already been treated with initial chemo. It is for people with a specific type of advanced ovarian cancer who are planning surgery after chemo.
AmsterdamAges 18–100 - NCT07472140RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
PARP inhibitor with or without anti-angiogenesis drug for ovarian cancer
This trial tests whether adding a drug that blocks blood vessel growth (angiogenesis inhibitor) to a PARP inhibitor works better than the PARP inhibitor alone for ovarian, fallopian-tube, or peritoneal cancers that have a specific DNA repair problem called HRD. It aims to find a more effective treatment for people with these cancers.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ovarian cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 609 recruiting ovarian cancer studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a ovarian cancer trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a ovarian cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
