Researchers are investigating treatments for women with recurrent endometrial cancer that expresses different levels of the HER2 protein. The study has two groups based on the tumor's HER2 score: Cohort 1 includes patients with HER2 IHC 1+ or 2+ who have previously received immune checkpoint inhibitors and platinum-based chemotherapy, while Cohort 2 includes patients with HER2 IHC 3+. The purpose is to compare the effectiveness and safety of the investigational drug BNT323 (also called DB-1303) against chemotherapy in Cohort 1 and to evaluate BNT323 alone in Cohort 2. The study also looks at how the drug affects the immune system, the body's handling of the drug, quality of life, and potential side effects. Participants in Cohort 1 are randomly assigned to receive either BNT323 via intravenous infusion or a chemotherapy drug chosen by the investigator (doxorubicin, paclitaxel, or docetaxel if paclitaxel is unsuitable). Treatment continues until the cancer progresses, unacceptable side effects occur, or the participant withdraws consent. Those in Cohort 2 receive BNT323 alone until disease progression or other discontinuation criteria are met. The study includes a screening period, a treatment period expected to last about six months, followed by safety monitoring, efficacy follow-up, and long-term survival follow-up lasting up to approximately 53 months. During the study, participants undergo regular assessments including imaging scans to measure tumor response by RECIST criteria, safety monitoring for adverse effects, and evaluations of quality of life. Researchers also study the pharmacokinetics of BNT323 and the immune response. The main outcomes measured are progression-free survival in Cohort 1 and objective response rate in Cohort 2. Safety follow-up ensures ongoing monitoring after treatment to evaluate longer-term effects and participant wellbeing.

Researchers are evaluating the experimental antibody COM701 in participants with relapsed platinum sensitive ovarian cancer (PSOC). This trial aims to find out if COM701, given as a maintenance treatment, can delay the progression of ovarian cancer, delay the need for new anti-cancer treatments, and to assess its safety. The study is part of an adaptive-platform trial with multiple sub-studies, focusing initially on COM701 alone compared to a placebo. Participants are randomly assigned in a 1:2 ratio to receive either a placebo or COM701 via intravenous infusion every 3 weeks. The trial includes a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled design for the first sub-study. Future sub-studies will explore COM701 combined with other anti-cancer drugs. During the study, participants will visit the clinic every three weeks for treatment and monitoring. Health checks include physical exams, vital signs, ECGs, blood and urine tests, and pregnancy tests if applicable. Disease response will be assessed with CT or MRI scans and tumor marker tests using tumor tissue samples. The primary measure is progression-free survival, tracking time from randomization until disease progression or death, assessed up to two years.

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of ACR-368 alone or combined with ultra-low dose gemcitabine (ULDG) sensitization in people with endometrial cancer. This is an open-label Phase 2 study involving participants with high-grade endometrial adenocarcinoma. Participants are grouped based on a test called OncoSignature, which predicts sensitivity to ACR-368, or by tumor subtype without requiring the test. Participants in Arm 1 and Arm 4 receive ACR-368 as a single treatment, while those in Arms 2 and 3 receive ACR-368 combined with ULDG sensitization. Arms 1 and 2 are for participants selected by OncoSignature status, while Arms 3 and 4 include participants with serous carcinoma regardless of OncoSignature results. Treatment continues until the disease progresses, unacceptable side effects occur, or the participant withdraws. Participants will have tumor response assessed every 8 weeks from the start of treatment through two years or until death. To join, participants must have measurable metastatic cancer that progressed after prior therapies, provide tumor tissue samples, and meet health and organ function requirements. Safety and response will be closely monitored throughout the study.

This research aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the combination of avutometinib and defactinib compared to standard treatments chosen by investigators in women with recurrent low-grade serous ovarian cancer (LGSOC) who have experienced disease progression after prior platinum-based therapy. Both avutometinib and defactinib are investigational kinase inhibitors designed to block cancer cell growth. The study will also assess overall survival, other measures of treatment effectiveness, safety, and quality of life impacts. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the combination of oral avutometinib and defactinib or one of four standard treatments recommended for recurrent LGSOC: pegylated liposomal doxorubicin and paclitaxel (both given intravenously), or the oral drugs letrozole or anastrozole. Patients treated with standard therapies who experience disease progression may be eligible to switch to the investigational combination. The study is open-label and conducted internationally by specialists in gynecological cancer. Throughout the study, participants will have regular follow-up visits including scans and tests to measure disease progression, with a primary focus on progression-free survival up to 24 months. Researchers will monitor safety, side effects, and overall survival while collecting information on quality of life and symptoms. The study involves ongoing assessments of treatment effects and participant health until the study concludes or disease progression occurs.

Researchers are evaluating the efficacy and safety of a drug called azenosertib (ZN-c3) in women with platinum-resistant, high-grade serous ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. This Phase 2 study focuses on patients whose tumors test positive for Cyclin E1 protein, determined by a specific assay developed by the sponsor. The study aims to understand how well azenosertib works in this group and its safety profile. The study involves administering azenosertib orally to participants. It is divided into two parts: Part 1 included all patients regardless of biomarker status and has completed enrollment; Part 2 requires tumors to be Cyclin E1 positive. Participants receive azenosertib and are monitored throughout the study according to the protocol. Participants will be involved in various assessments including tumor measurements following RECIST version 1.1 criteria up to about 12 months after the last participant enrolls. Researchers will track the objective response rate to evaluate tumor response. Safety and efficacy evaluations, along with monitoring of side effects and overall health, will take place during the study period to gather comprehensive data on the treatment.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of INCB123667 in women with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer that shows overexpression of Cyclin E1. This phase 2 study focuses on participants with high-grade serous epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer who have developed resistance to platinum-based therapies. The trial aims to assess how well the drug works and its safety profile in this specific patient group. Participants will receive INCB123667 orally twice a day. The study includes women who have undergone between one and four prior systemic therapies after their initial diagnosis and have platinum-resistant disease. A pretreatment biopsy is required, preferably a fresh sample but an archival tissue sample not older than five years is also acceptable. The study monitors the participants over time to evaluate their response to the treatment. During the study, researchers will closely observe participants through assessments that include biopsies and monitoring for safety and response to treatment over a period of up to two years. The main outcome measure is the objective response evaluated by an independent review committee. Safety and efficacy data will guide the understanding of INCB123667's potential for treating this challenging form of ovarian cancer.

Researchers are evaluating the safety and effectiveness of Raludotatug Deruxtecan (R-DXd) in people with platinum-resistant, high-grade ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer. This study includes two parts: Phase 2 to find the best dose based on safety and response, and Phase 3 to compare R-DXd with the investigator's choice of chemotherapy. R-DXd is an antibody-drug conjugate that targets CDH6, a protein overexpressed in tumor cells. Participants will receive R-DXd through intravenous infusions. In Phase 2 (Part A), the dose will be optimized, and biopsies will be collected before and during treatment if possible. In Phase 3 (Part B), participants will be randomly assigned to receive either R-DXd or chemotherapy chosen by their doctor, which may include paclitaxel, topotecan, or PLD, all given by IV infusion. The study monitors treatment effects up to 18 months in Phase 2 and up to 26 months in Phase 3. During the study, participants will have regular scans and assessments to measure tumor response and progression-free survival. Researchers will monitor safety and organ function through lab tests and performance status evaluations. Participants must be willing to follow the study visits and procedures, which include biopsy samples in Phase 2 and imaging assessments to evaluate treatment response. The study aims to provide detailed information about how well R-DXd works and its safety in this patient group.

Researchers are evaluating sacituzumab tirumotecan as a second-line treatment for female participants with recurrent or metastatic cervical cancer who have previously received platinum chemotherapy and anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy. This study has two phases: a safety run-in to assess the safety and efficacy of sacituzumab tirumotecan, followed by a Phase 3 portion comparing sacituzumab tirumotecan to treatment chosen by physicians. The study aims to determine if sacituzumab tirumotecan improves overall survival, especially in participants with high TROP2 expression. Participants will receive intravenous infusions of sacituzumab tirumotecan during the safety run-in phase. In the Phase 3 portion, participants are randomized to receive either sacituzumab tirumotecan or one of several physician-chosen treatments including pemetrexed, tisotumab vedotin, topotecan, vinorelbine, gemcitabine, or irinotecan, all given by IV infusion. This setup allows comparison of sacituzumab tirumotecan monotherapy against standard second-line therapies. Throughout the study, participants will undergo evaluations for tumor response, adverse events, and overall survival, with monitoring lasting up to approximately 51 months for the safety run-in and about 43 months for the Phase 3 portion. Researchers will use imaging and tumor tissue analysis to assess measurable disease and TROP2 expression. Safety and treatment tolerability will be closely observed, including tracking discontinuations due to adverse events.

Researchers are evaluating the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of farletuzumab ecteribulin (MORAb-202), a drug that targets folate receptor alpha, in participants with certain tumor types including ovarian cancer, endometrial cancer, non-small cell lung carcinoma, and triple-negative breast cancer. The trial includes dose-escalation, dose-confirmation, and dose-optimization parts to determine safe doses and assess early signs of how well the drug works, alone or combined with lenvatinib. The study also explores the use of oral corticosteroids alongside the treatment and aims to identify the best treatment regimens for further testing. Participants receive farletuzumab ecteribulin through intravenous infusion, with some treatment plans including oral corticosteroids such as prednisone, prednisolone, or dexamethasone. In the dose-optimization phase, the drug is given alone or combined with oral lenvatinib. Treatment is given every 21 days, and the study includes multiple parts lasting up to approximately five years to find the recommended doses and evaluate safety and response. During the study, participants undergo regular assessments including scans, laboratory tests, and safety monitoring to track tumor response and side effects. Researchers measure tumor shrinkage, dose-limiting toxicities, serious adverse events, and overall safety from the start of treatment through follow-up periods. Participants are monitored for up to five years to observe treatment effects and long-term safety, with detailed evaluations during each treatment cycle and after treatment ends.

Researchers are conducting a multi-center, open-label, randomized clinical trial to compare survival outcomes between robotic-assisted laparoscopy and open surgery for patients with early stage cervical cancer. The study tests whether robotically assisted hysterectomy with tumor containment before colpotomy is not worse than abdominal hysterectomy regarding disease-free survival. Patients must have specific cancer types and stages without evidence of metastases to participate. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the robotic surgery group or the open surgery group. In the robotic arm, hysterectomy is performed using a minimally invasive robotic device with specific surgical protocols to close the vagina prior to colpotomy. In the standard arm, an open radical or simple hysterectomy is performed with vaginal closure over the tumor before colpotomy. Both groups may have ovary removal or preservation, and detailed surgical records are maintained. During the study, patients undergo preoperative assessments including imaging and lab tests, and pregnancy tests for pre-menopausal women. Surgeons document operative details and complications. The primary outcome is survival measured over 36 months. Follow-up includes monitoring for disease-free survival and safety. Participants must be able to attend follow-up visits and provide consent to share health information.
