Study Summary

This trial tests a new therapy for ovarian cancer, combining existing drug nivolumab with a new drug, to see if it improves outcomes.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-75 with HLA-A2+ and MAGE-A4 positive recurrent ovarian cancer who've had specific prior treatments, including platinum-based chemotherapy. They must have an ECOG performance status of 0 or 1, be fit for leukapheresis, not pregnant, agree to contraception if applicable, and have adequate organ function. Exclusions include certain heart conditions, uncontrolled illnesses, active infections like HIV/HBV/HTLV or hepatitis C virus (HCV), autoimmune diseases unless stable on treatment, recent major surgery without full recovery from any related toxicities.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests ADP A2M4CD8 cells alone and combined with Nivolumab in patients with ovarian cancer that expresses a protein called MAGE-A4. It's an open-label phase 2 trial where participants are randomly assigned to receive either the monotherapy or combination therapy to assess clinical outcomes.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include immune system reactions due to genetically modified cells or Nivolumab causing inflammation in organs; infusion-related reactions; fatigue; blood disorders; increased risk of infection; allergic responses similar to those seen with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide used during the study.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Has the FDA given authorization for Autologous genetically modified ADP-A2M4CD8 cells to be utilized in conjunction with Nivolumab?

"Our team at Power has rated the safety of Autologous genetically modified ADP-A2M4CD8 cells combined with Nivolumab a 2 due to its Phase 2 status; there is evidence that it can be used without danger, but none suggesting efficacy."

Answered by AI

Is the enrollment phase of this trial still open to participants?

"According to up-to-date information on clinicaltrials.gov, this medical research is currently in need of participants. It was posted on June 26th 2023 and has been updated as recently as the 30th of the same month."
