Clinical Pre-screening Protocol for Ovarian Cancer
United States, United Kingdom60 participantsStarted 2019-04-11
Plain-language summary
The patient's local archival tumor tissue (FFPE) from original tumor, or from the metastatic tissue, will be collected to potentially identify if they - at a later stage of their disease - will be likely to benefit from treatment with any of the investigational cancer drugs available to Allarity Therapeutics. Data from this study can further be used to explore in a retrospective fashion, sensitivity to other chemotherapeutic drugs previously used in the treatment of their ovarian cancer, to investigate whether or not the DRP® method can predict and confirm the obtained sensitivity to the prior given drugs as well as prospective analyses guiding the Investigators on future treatments.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Patients with histological confirmed epithelia ovarian cancer
* Patients must have platinum-resistant disease, defined as progression within 6 months after the last dose of platinum-based chemotherapy, or are platinum ineligible.
* Patients have received no more than one prior line of therapy in the platinum resistant or platinum ineligible setting
* FFPE tumor tissue available
Exclusion Criteria:
* Patients who have platinum-refractory disease, defined as progression during the last platinum-based chemotherapy.
* Other malignancy with exception of any stage I and II cancer that is deemed cured by the Investigator
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
