Testing two first-treatment options for advanced ovarian cancer
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This Phase 2 trial compares two different treatment strategies as the first chemotherapy after surgery for advanced epithelial ovarian, peritoneal, or fallopian-tube cancer. It may help doctors find a more effective or better-tolerated approach for people in your situation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Have confirmed advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (or primary peritoneal or fallopian-tube cancer), stage III or IV
- Have had surgery within the last 3 weeks (either debulking or diagnostic surgery)
- Be 18 to under 75 years old
- Be able to do normal daily activities with limited impairment (overall health score not too low)
- Blood tests and kidney function must be adequate (white blood cells, platelets, and creatinine clearance)
- Not have had prior chemotherapy for ovarian cancer

This Phase 3 trial compares two chemotherapy drug approaches (nab-paclitaxel vs another taxane drug) as the first treatment for advanced ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer. It aims to find which option works better and is tolerated better in people with stage III–IV disease.
This Phase 3 trial tests whether patients with advanced ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer do better with surgery first versus chemotherapy first. It also groups people based on how extensive the cancer is to choose the best approach.
This trial checks whether having surgery to remove as much tumor as possible, followed by ongoing targeted treatment, helps people with advanced ovarian (and related) cancers live longer and/or control cancer better. It specifically uses tumor-testing results to match patients and then continues treatment after surgery.
This trial tests a different way of giving chemotherapy to people with advanced ovarian cancer that didn't respond well to initial treatment. The goal is to see if changing the dose and schedule can improve outcomes.
This study tests a personalized cancer therapy designed just for you and your tumor. It is for people with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer who can wait a short time before starting treatment and plan to have surgery after 2 cycles of chemotherapy.
This trial studies whether an additional treatment after surgery can help people with early-stage epithelial ovarian cancer live longer and stay well for more time. It is meant for patients who had a detailed staging operation and are able to start treatment within 8 weeks.
