Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug (ZN-c3) to see if it is safe and works well with other drugs.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women over 18 with high-grade serous ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal carcinoma that's resistant to platinum-based therapy. They must have had 1-2 prior treatments and measurable disease. Participants need proper organ function, a negative pregnancy test, and agree to use contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests ZN-c3 in combination with other cancer drugs (Carboplatin, Pegylated liposomal doxorubicin, Paclitaxel, Gemcitabine) on patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. It aims to assess safety, tolerability and preliminary effectiveness of the drug mix.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions related to each drug such as nausea from chemotherapy agents like Carboplatin or nerve damage from drugs like Paclitaxel. The specific side effects of ZN-c3 are being studied but could be similar.

Trial Design

4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Combination with paclitaxelExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants will take: (1) ZN-c3 orally and continuously once daily (QD) in 28-day treatment cycles, and (2) paclitaxel 80 mg/m^2 administered intravenously over 60 minutes (± 10 minutes) on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each 28-day cycle
Group II: Combination with gemcitabineExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants will take: (1) ZN-c3 orally and continuously once daily (QD) in 21-day treatment cycles, and (2) gemcitabine 1000 mg/m^2 intravenously over 30 minutes or longer every 3 weeks, on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle. If the dose of 1000 mg/m2 is deemed to have unacceptable toxicity in combination with ZN-c3, lower doses may be assessed.
Group III: Combination with carboplatinExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants will take: (1) ZN-c3 orally and continuously once daily (QD) in 21-day treatment cycles (± 3 days), and (2) carboplatin 5 mg/mL*min intravenously over 15 minutes or longer every 3 weeks, on Day 1 of each 21-day cycle (± 3 days)
Group IV: Combination with PLDExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants will take: (1) ZN-c3 orally and continuously once daily (QD) in 28-day treatment cycles (± 3 days), and (2) PLD 40 mg/m^2 intravenously over 60 minutes every 4 weeks, on Day 1 of each 28-day cycle

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

From how many central points is this research coordinated?

"To limit participant burden, the clinical trial sites were chosen to be in close proximity to 4 major metropolitan areas. The cities with sites are Nashville, Boston, Houston, and 4 other locations."

Answered by AI

Does this type of research project have any precedent?

"Alfacell conducted the first study on ZN-c3 in 1997, which then allowed the drug to enter Phase 3 clinical trials. Presently, there are 1756 active trials in 3860 cities and 89 countries."

Answered by AI

What is the maximum number of people who can take part in this trial?

"One hundred and forty patients are required for this clinical trial to have the desired sample size. K-Group Beta, the sponsor of this study, will be conducting the trial at different locations. For example, Site 0196 in Nashville, Tennessee and Site 0104 in Boston, Massachusetts."

Answered by AI

By what margin does this trial hope to improve patient outcomes?

"The main objective of this trial is to investigate the safety and tolerability of ZN-c3 in combination with PLD and with carboplatin, respectively. Secondary outcomes include obtaining estimates of clinical activity by determining the duration of response (DOR) of ZN-c3 in combination with PLD, carboplatin, paclitaxel, or gemcitabine, which is defined as Duration of response (DOR) as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors RECIST version 1.1, To obtain estimates of clinical activity by determining the progression-free survival (PFS) of"

What medical purposes does ZN-c3 usually serve?

"ZN-c3 can be used to treat various cancers, such as non-hodgkin lymphoma, Kaposi's sarcoma, and non-small cell lung cancer."

Answered by AI

Are there other ZN-c3 studies that have previously been completed?

"ZN-c3 was first studied in 1997 at the Spectrum Health Hospital - Butterworth Campus. As of now, there have been a total of 2700 completed clinical trials. Out of these, 1756 are live studies. A large number of these ongoing trials are taking place in Nashville, Tennessee."

Answered by AI

I have peritoneal carcinomatous. I had ovarian cancer in 2019, it has now spread to my abdomen. My oncologist wants to treat me with chemo.,, Not sure that is the correct treatment. Feel that that treatment will not really help me.
