Evaluating Efficacy and Tolerability of Anticancer Drug Therapies for the Treatment of Gynecologic and Breast Cancers
retrospective/prospective observational study. Objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of drugs in terms of objective responses, disease-free survival (DFS), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and side effects compared with registry studies in the medical therapy of breast and gynecologic cancers.
Solid Tumor Analysis for HLA Loss of Heterozygosity (LOH) and Apheresis for CAR T- Cell Manufacturing
Objective To collect information on how often a solid tumor cancer might lose the Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) by next generation sequencing and perform apheresis to collect and store an eligible participant's own T cells for future use to make CAR T-Cell therapy for their disease treatment. Design This is …
Ultrasound-guided Tru-Cut Biopsy in Pelvic Masses.
In a transvaginal tru-cut biopsy, guided by ultrasound, a needle is inserted through the vaginal wall into a pelvic lesion and a few pieces of tissue are obtained for examination. This clinical trial is organized to evaluate the safety and efficacy of transvaginal tru-cut biopsy in a large group of …
Ultrasound-guided Transvaginal Aspiration of Cystic Pelvic Lesions
Adnexal cysts or pseudocysts are a common finding on transvaginal ultrasound, especially in premenopausal women. Due to the size of some cysts, they may cause discomfort. Moreover, a genuine risk of ovarian torsion presents when these lesions grow. During the last decades, great advancements have been made in the correct …
Role of RPL8 Protein Alterations in High-grade Serous Ovarian Carcinoma
Background and rationale of the study: From our preliminary analyses of a dataset on patients with high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC), available in the online database The Cancer Genome Atlas, we found that the gene encoding ribosomal protein L8 (RPL8) is amplified at a high frequency (~30%) in HGSOC. Moreover, …
Tumor Microenvironment in Ovarian Cancer
A detailed understanding of molecular mechanism of cancer genesis is fundamental to develop innovative and personalized therapies. The new frontier in biomedical research is represented by organoids, a three-dimensional cell culture system obtained from a tissue fragment that accurately reproduces the essential properties of the original tissue in vitro, which …
The Immune Landscape of Epithelial Ovarian Cancer
This is a single center prospective observational study to characterize the immune landscape of newly diagnosed epithelial ovarian cancer (OC). Patients with newly diagnosed epithelial OC will be enrolled in 4 different cohorts: A) Newly diagnosed high grade serous or endometroid OC undergoing primary debulking surgery; B) Newly diagnosed high …
Performance of SYMMCORA® vs. V-Loc® Suture Material in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Total Hysterectomy
The aim of this study is to show the superiority of the new unidirectional barbed suture (SYMMCORA® mid-term, unidirectional) to conventional suture material in terms of time to perform the vaginal cuff closure during gynecologic surgeries without an increase in the complication rate. Secondly, the superiority of SYMMCORA®, mid-term unidirectional …
Developing a Test for the Detection of Ovarian Cancer
The study aims to develop a test for early detection of ovarian cancer using DNA from a growth involving the ovary found in a washing of the uterus (womb), and proteins found in the blood. The samples of the wash and the blood will be taken before surgery. After surgery, …
Determining Prognostic Immune Markers in Patients With Ovarian Cancer
The IMPRoVE study is a prospective, non-interventional, explorative cohort study to determine prognostic immune markers in patients with epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, and primary peritoneal cancer (EOC).
