Study Summary

This trial is testing if Nivolumab, Bevacizumab, and Rucaparib can help treat relapsed ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with relapsed ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer who've had standard therapy and up to 3 chemo regimens. They must not be pregnant, breastfeeding, have certain allergies or infections, uncontrolled illnesses, recent surgeries or severe psychiatric conditions. Participants need measurable disease by RECIST criteria and agree to use contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a combination of Nivolumab (an immune system booster), Bevacizumab (a blood vessel growth inhibitor), and Rucaparib (a DNA repair blocker) in patients with specific types of relapsed cancers. It aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of this drug trio.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include allergic reactions to the drugs; bleeding issues; high blood pressure; bowel obstruction risks; wound healing complications; infusion reactions similar to monoclonal antibodies; increased risk of infections due to immunosuppression.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Is Bevacizumab safe for human use?

"There is some data supporting Bevacizumab's safety, but none yet for efficacy. Our team scores it a 2."

Answered by AI

For what medical reasons is Bevacizumab typically prescribed?

"Bevacizumab is a medication used to treat melanoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer. It can also be given to patients with a high risk of recurrence."

Answered by AI

Could you please give a brief overview of the research Bevacizumab has undergone?

"At this moment in time, there are 1131 ongoing clinical trials evaluating the efficacy of Bevacizumab. 183 of these investigations are classified as Phase 3 trials. Most of the research is being conducted in Taibei, Taiwan; however, clinical trials for Bevacizumab can be found at 60430 locations worldwide."

Answered by AI

Are people still able to sign up for this experiment?

"From what is indicated on clinicaltrials.gov, it seems as though this trial is still recruiting patients. The first posting was on November 10th, 2016 with the most recent edit being on May 17th, 2022."

Answered by AI

How many people are enrolled in this clinical research project?

"That is correct, the online information hosted on clinicaltrials.gov affirms that this experiment is still recruiting patients. The trial was initially posted on November 10th, 2016 but has since been updated on May 17th, 2022. In total, the study needs 76 individuals at 3 separate locations."

Answered by AI

What are researchers hoping to study with this clinical trial?

"The aim of this trial, which will be assessed over the course of 2 years, is to evaluate Cohort 3 for safety and tolerability. Secondary outcomes include assessing the association of baseline PD-L1 expression with anti-tumor activity (using a Wilcoxon rank sum test), determining the best overall response rate (using RESIST 1.1 criteria or modified GCIG CA-125 criteria), and measuring progression free survival (defined as the percentage of patients who are progression-free at 6 months)."
