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 …
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).
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, …
Cukurova Score Validation Study
Despite significant advancements in imaging technologies, surgical techniques, chemotherapeutic regimens, and treatment strategies in recent years, ovarian cancer continues to remain the most deadly gynecological malignancy. Approximately 90% of ovarian cancers originate from the coelomic epithelium or modified mesothelial cells and are classified as epithelial ovarian cancers. The majority of …
LIVInG With chrONic Cancer TrEatments (LONGEVITI) Study
People with advanced chronic cancers are now living for many years as a result of new targeted anti-cancer treatments. Many of these treatments are quite new and people may take them for months, even years, as long as the treatments are helping. The purpose of this study is to help …
Effect of Early Enteral Nutrition on Postoperative Recovery of Ovarian Cancer Patients
This is a single-center, unblinded, prospective observational study, and the objective is to compare the effects of enteral nutrition via nasojejunal tube and parenteral nutrition via vein on patients' early recovery and prognosis who undergo tumor cytoreduction for ovarian cancer.
