24 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This randomized trial studies transdermal or oral telapristone acetate in treating patients undergoing surgery to remove the breast (mastectomy). Telapristone acetate may help prevent breast cancer from forming in premenopausal women. Giving telapristone acetate transdermally may be safer and have fewer side effects than oral administration.
This phase Ib/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of olaparib and vistusertib (AZD2014) or olaparib and capivasertib (AZD5363) when given together in treating patients with endometrial, triple negative breast cancer, ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer that has come back (recurrent). Olaparib, vistusertib, and capivasertib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
This phase II trial studies how well veliparib works in treating patients with epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that has come back or does not respond to treatment. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

RATIONALE: Chemoprevention is the use of certain drugs to keep cancer from forming, growing, or coming back. The use of fenretinide may prevent ovarian cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying how well fenretinide works in preventing ovarian cancer in participants who are at high risk of developing ovarian cancer and planning to undergo surgery to remove the ovaries.
RATIONALE: Chemoprevention therapy is the use of certain drugs to try to prevent the development or recurrence of cancer. The use of celecoxib before prophylactic oophorectomy may be an effective way to prevent the development of ovarian epithelial cancer. PURPOSE: A controlled pilot trial to study the effectiveness of celecoxib in preventing cancer in patients at high-risk for ovarian epithelial cancer who are undergoing prophylactic oophorectomy.
RATIONALE: Chemoprevention therapy is the use of certain drugs to try to prevent the development or recurrence of cancer. Deslorelin combined with low-dose add-back estradiol and testosterone (given to replace hormones suppressed by deslorelin) may be effective in preventing breast cancer in at-risk women. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving deslorelin together with estradiol and testosterone works in preventing breast cancer in premenopausal women who are at high risk for this disease.
This randomized phase III trial studies metformin hydrochloride to see how well it works compared to placebo in preventing breast cancer in patients with atypical hyperplasia or in situ breast cancer. Chemoprevention is the use of certain drugs to keep cancer from forming. The use of metformin hydrochloride may prevent breast cancer.
This randomized clinical trial studies a group-based lifestyle intervention or usual care in measuring biomarker levels in participants at high risk for breast cancer. Studying the effects that changes to daily eating and exercise habits can have on the body's hormone levels and the body's ability to activate proteins may help doctors identify interventions for individuals at high risk for breast cancer.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and the best dose of veliparib when given together with capecitabine and oxaliplatin in treating patients with advanced solid tumors. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as capecitabine and oxaliplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving veliparib together with capecitabine and oxaliplatin may kill more tumor cells.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of giving ABT-888 together with gemcitabine hydrochloride in treating patients with advanced solid tumors. ABT-888 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving ABT-888 together with gemcitabine hydrochloride may kill more tumor cells.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of veliparib in treating patients with malignant solid tumors that do not respond to previous therapy. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of veliparib when given together with carboplatin and paclitaxel in treating patients with advanced solid cancer. Veliparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving veliparib together with carboplatin and paclitaxel may help kill more tumor cells.
The primary objective of the study is to assess the progression-free survival (PFS) of oral veliparib in combination with TMZ or in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel compared to placebo plus carboplatin and paclitaxel in subjects with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation and locally recurrent or metastatic breast cancer.
This study is to find out if 3.0 Tesla (3.0-T) Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) will improve in diagnosing breast cancer in women with high-risk of breast cancer.
RATIONALE: Chemoprevention is the use of certain drugs to keep cancer from forming. The use of recombinant human chorionic gonadotropin may prevent breast cancer in premenopausal women with BRCA1 mutations. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying recombinant human chorionic gonadotropin in preventing breast cancer in premenopausal women with BRCA1 mutations.
The research study is being conducted to test an experimental vaccine to potentially prevent cancer for people with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations. This study will test if the vaccine is safe (without significant side effects) and test a new way of administering vaccines. It will also test whether the vaccine activates your immune system.
This randomized pilot early phase I trial studies how well denosumab works in BRCA1/2 mutations carriers scheduled for risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy. Denosumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
The purpose of this study is to examine how a single dose of MIFEPREX® (mifepristone) affects the breast tissue in patients with BRCA1 (a gene that normally acts to restrain the growth of cells in the breast, but if it mutates may lead to breast cancer) mutations undergoing a planned prophylactic mastectomy (having one or both breasts removed).
The goal of this clinical research study is to compare ovarian cancer screening, risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy (RRSO), and prophylactic salpingectomy with delayed oophorectomy (PSDO). The safety of RRSO and PSDO will also be studied. Ovarian cancer screening does not involve a surgical procedure. Instead, physical exams, blood tests, and ultrasound are used to check for ovarian, fallopian tube, and peritoneal cancer. The surgical procedures, RRSO and PSDO, are designed to lower your risk of ovarian cancer. In RRSO, the fallopian tubes and ovaries are removed at the same time. In PSDO, the fallopian tubes are removed and the ovaries remain in place so that the patient does not go through menopause. The ovaries are removed at a later date. The main goal of this study is to learn how many patients actually have their ovaries removed at a later date. Researchers also want to learn whether the removal of fallopian tubes will decrease the risk of ovarian cancer.
