Carboplatin/paclitaxel is the standard first-line chemotherapy for patients with advanced ovarian cancer. Multicentre Italian Trials in Ovarian Cancer-2 (MITO-2), an academic multicenter phase III trial, tested whether carboplatin/pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) was more effective than chemotherapy.Chemotherapy-naive stage IC to IV cancer (age ≤ 75 years; Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 2) were randomly assigned carboplatin area under curve (AUC) 5 plus paclitaxel...
PURPOSE To investigate whether the addition of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) to secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCS) without neoadjuvant has a benefit on progression-free survival (PFS), as opposed SCS alone in patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer (platinum-free interval, >6 months). METHODS This was multicenter randomized phase III study. Random assignment performed at time cases residual tumor ≤0.25 cm. HIPEC cisplatin (CDDP) 75 mg/m...
Introduction Endometrial cancer (EC) is the only gynecologic malignancy showing increasing trends in incidence and mortality. While standard treatment has been effective primarily for early-stage EC, precision medicine with tailored therapy revolutionized management of this disease. Genome sequencing analyses have identified four sub-types EC. Treatments primary metastatic disease can now be more accurately to achieve better oncologic results.
Purpose Platinum-based chemotherapy (PBC) for patients with progressing ovarian cancer (OC) is more effective a longer time interval from previous platinum treatment (platinum-free [PFI]). In 1999, it was hypothesized that prolonging PFI single-agent non-PBC (NPBC) may offer strategy to improve overall outcome. MITO-8 aimed verify this hypothesis commonly used in clinical practice although has not been prospectively tested. Methods an open-label, prospective, randomized, superiority trial....
The worldwide approval of the combination maintenance therapy olaparib and bevacizumab in advanced high-grade serous ovarian cancer requires complex molecular diagnostic assays that are sufficiently robust for routine detection driver mutations homologous recombination repair (HRR) genes genomic instability (GI), employing formalin-fixed (FFPE) paraffin-embedded tumor samples without matched normal tissue. We therefore established a DNA-based hybrid capture NGS assay an associated...
5502 Background: The prognosis of advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer (AEC) is dismal. antiangiogenic drug Bevacizumab (B) has reported activity in AEC with response rates ranging from 13 to 22% and 6-month disease control up 40%. This randomized phase II trial was designed compare CP vs CP-B the treatment terms progression free survival (PFS).(EUDRACT Number 003301-16) Methods: Eligible pts had (stage III-IV) (progression > 6 months after completion previous platinum chemotherapy)...
