Growing lab-mini-tumors for ovarian cancer treatment choices
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial uses a small piece of your cancer tissue (taken during surgery) to grow 'mini-tumors' in the lab. These help doctors find which treatments might work best for you. It is for people with advanced serous ovarian cancer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have advanced ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer (Stage IIIC or higher).
- Your cancer type is 'high-grade serous' on biopsy during surgery.
- You are over 18 years old.
- You are expected to live at least 4 more weeks.
- You are physically active enough for daily tasks (ECOG score of 0 or 1).

This study looks for cancer DNA in your blood to understand advanced ovarian cancer better. It helps doctors see how the disease changes over time and may improve future treatments.
This study uses lab-grown tumor models (organoids) from your tissue or fluid sample to find the best treatment for your ovarian cancer.
This study looks at tumor tissue from ovarian cancer patients to find “biomarkers,” or lab signals, that may predict how the disease behaves or how it might respond to treatment. You may be asked for a biopsy of the relapsed (coming back) tumor or to use an existing archived tumor sample.
This laboratory study uses ovarian cancer fluid collected during surgery to test possible new treatments on cancer and immune cells. It may help researchers find better treatment options in ovarian cancer.
This study uses lab testing to create a “map” of ovarian cancer cells one cell at a time, to better understand the disease. It likely helps researchers learn which cell types are involved, using samples collected around your surgery.
This study is testing a blood test to see if it can catch ovarian cancer early. You may be eligible if you have been recently diagnosed with ovarian cancer and haven't started treatment yet.
