Study Summary

This trial is testing a new cancer treatment that uses a measles virus to carry a cancer-killing substance directly to ovarian, primary peritoneal, and fallopian tube cancer cells.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with recurrent ovarian, primary peritoneal or fallopian tube cancer who have previously been treated with platinum and taxanes. Participants must have adequate organ function, an ECOG performance status of 0-2, a life expectancy of at least 12 weeks, and no history of certain other conditions like severe allergies to measles vaccine or immunodeficiency.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing the safety and effectiveness of MV-NIS infected mesenchymal stem cells in treating recurrent cancers mentioned above. It's looking for the best dose that can carry tumor-killing substances directly to cancer cells without causing too many side effects.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include typical reactions related to stem cell transplantation such as immune response complications, infection risks due to weakened immunity from the virus used in treatment, allergic reactions especially if there's a known allergy to measles vaccine.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (MV-NIS infected mesenchymal stem cells)Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
Patients receive oncolytic measles virus encoding thyroidal sodium iodide symporter IP over 30 minutes on day 1 of cycle 1 and MV-NIS infected MSC (if MSC are not available, MV-NIS may be given alone) IP over 30 minutes of subsequent cycles. Treatment repeats every 28 days for up to 6 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
