A Phase 1 interventional study of AVB-S6-500 and Paclitaxel (Pac) in Ovarian Cancer, sponsored by Aravive, Inc.. Completed at 16 sites in United States. Open to female participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2023-02-13.

This is a Phase 1b/2 study of AVB-S6-500 in combination with pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) or paclitaxel (Pac) in patients with platinum resistant recurrent ovarian cancer. The phase 1b portion of the study is open label and patients will receive either AVB-S6-500+PLD or AVB-S6-500+ Pac. The Phase 2 portion of the study is randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to compare efficacy and tolerability of AVB-S6-500 in combination with PLD or Pac versus placebo plus PLD or Pac.
While this study was planned as two-part study consisting of a Phase 1b and a Phase 2 portion, the sponsor decided not to proceed with the Phase 2 portion.
The Phase 1b portion of the study was a multicenter, 2-group, open-label design to evaluate the safety and tolerability of AVB-S6-500 combined with PLD or Pac in subjects with platinum-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer. The decision to enroll in the Phase 2 portion of the study was to be driven by the recommendation of a safe and tolerable dose of AVB-S6-500 in combination with each chemotherapy backbone; however, enrollment into the Phase 2 portion was not initiated per Sponsor decision. Given that sufficient data were obtained in the Phase 1b portion AVB-S6-500 + Pac group, the decision was made to pursue a randomized Phase 3 to further study the benefit of this combination versus paclitaxel alone in patients with platinum resistant ovarian cancer.

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
The diagnosis was confirmed by looking at a sample under a microscope: tissue from a biopsy or surgery (histology), or cells from a fluid or needle sample (cytology).
Your pathology report is the document that shows this.
A biopsy takes a small piece of tissue to examine. “Archival tissue” is a sample already taken, for example at diagnosis, and kept by the hospital.
Whether a stored sample will do depends on when it was taken, how much there is and what the study needs. Ask whether the study accepts your stored sample or needs a new biopsy.
Neoadjuvant treatment is given before the main treatment (usually surgery), often to shrink a tumour. Adjuvant treatment is given after it, to lower the chance of the cancer coming back.
The standard rules for measuring tumours on CT or MRI scans, to tell whether a cancer is shrinking, stable or growing during treatment.
“Measurable disease per RECIST 1.1” usually means at least one tumour 10 mm or more at its longest on a CT scan, or a lymph node 15 mm or more across its short axis.
A scale of how much an illness limits everyday activity. For people being assessed to join a study, scores run from 0 (fully active) to 4; lower is more active.
Studies most often ask for 0–1 or 0–2. Your doctor gives the score; the WHO scale uses the same steps. The full scale also has 5, which records death.
Relapsed: the illness came back after treatment had worked. Refractory: it did not respond to treatment, or stopped responding while still on it.
Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.
Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.
Cancer deposits in the brain from a cancer that started elsewhere in the body (CNS metastases include the spinal cord).
Studies differ: some leave out any brain metastases, some accept ones treated and stable for some weeks. Check what this study allows.
Cancer that has spread from where it began to other parts of the body. “Metastatic” cancer is cancer that has spread this way.
The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.
Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.
Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.
Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.
Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.
After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.

Quality of Life(QOL)
Subject QOL will be assessed every 8 weeks during treatment using the Functional Assessment Of Cancer Therapy - Ovarian Cancer (FACT-O) questionnaire, which consists of 4 subscales: physical well-being (7 questions), social/family well-being (7 questions), emotional well-being (6 questions), and functional well-being (7 questions), and 12 additional concerns specific to ovarian cancer. All items are rated on a 5 point scale with 0 "not at all" and 4 "very much". The scoring algorithm allows for eight summary scales: the four core well-being subscales, a subtotal of the 27 core items, a subtotal of the 12 ovarian-specific additional concerns, a grand total of the 39 items, and a trial outcome index (sum of the 17 physical and functional wellbeing items plus the 12 ovarian-specific items).
