Study Summary

This trial is testing the effectiveness of monoclonal antibody therapy to treat ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with certain types of cancer (ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal) who've had only one prior platinum-based chemo treatment. They should have no signs of current disease but a high CA 125 level and be expected to live at least another 6 months. People can't join if they're pregnant, have uncontrolled health issues like heart failure or hypertension, other cancers within the last 5 years (except some skin cancers), allergies to mouse proteins, or are on immunosuppressants.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing monoclonal antibody therapy's ability to target and kill cancer cells without harming normal ones in patients with specific gynecological cancers. It's a phase II trial where participants are randomly assigned to receive this treatment.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Monoclonal antibody therapy might cause allergic reactions due to mouse proteins used in the drug development process. Other side effects could include fatigue, fever from infections since it affects the immune system, and potential anemia or low blood counts.
