Telmisartan plus chemo for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer
Treatments studied
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests adding telmisartan (a blood pressure medicine) to standard chemotherapy for people with ovarian cancer that no longer responds to platinum-based drugs. The goal is to see if the combination can help control the cancer better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have a type of ovarian cancer called high-grade serous carcinoma.
- Your cancer did not respond to or stopped responding to platinum chemotherapy.
- You are able to get around and take care of yourself (ECOG score 0, 1, or 2).
- Your liver, kidney, and blood cell counts are within safe levels (tests will check this).
- You are not taking certain blood pressure medicines or receiving bevacizumab as part of your current chemo.

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 trial tests a new targeted drug, SHR-A1811, combined with chemotherapy for women whose ovarian cancer has returned but still responds to platinum-based drugs. The goal is to see if the combination works better than chemotherapy alone.
This study tests whether adding a statin (a common cholesterol-lowering drug) to standard chemotherapy can improve outcomes for people with ovarian cancer. It's for women who are about to receive chemotherapy as part of their treatment plan.
This study tests a new drug (INCB123667) given as a pill, compared to standard chemotherapy, for people whose ovarian cancer has stopped responding to platinum-based treatments and whose tumor has high levels of a protein called Cyclin E1. The goal is to see if the new drug works better than standard chemo for this specific type of cancer.
This Phase 2 study tests adding mirvetuximab to carboplatin for people with advanced, high-grade serous ovarian cancer who will first receive “neoadjuvant” chemotherapy. It is designed for tumors that strongly show FRα, which mirvetuximab targets, to see if this improves outcomes.
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.
