Study summary

Most ovarian cancer will relapse after standard therapy. Patients with recurrent ovarian cancer are resistant to platinum. Due to the high heterogeneity between ovarian cancer, individual precise therapy is of great importance. The study will establish ovarian cancer organoids, whose original tissues from the patients with advanced or recurrent ovarian cancer, their tumors cannot be excised completely. The organoids will be identified at the histopathological level and gene level for evaluating the consistency with the original tumor tissue. The drug's sensitivity and specificity are detected through the organoids model. Compared with the clinical efficiency of the actual drug regimen, the efficacy of the organoid drug screening model can be assessed. The aim is to construct a precise drug screening platform for advanced and recurrent ovarian cancer patients and innovate drug research and development.

Read the detailed description

This trial is a single-arm and prospective observational study. The subjects are the advanced or recurrent ovarian cancer patients, who are planned to undergo surgery, but the neoplastic lesions can't be excised thoroughly. They voluntarily participate in the study and sign an informed consent form. General information will be collected, including name, age, address and contact information. Comprehensive physical examination will be performed. Ovarian cancer tumor markers and imaging examinations (gastroenterostomy, ultrasound / CT / MRI or PET / CT) should be taken within 4 weeks before treatment. Histopathological and genetic characteristics were analyzed in organoids and paired primary tumors to confirm whether organoids faithfully recapitulated the original tumor tissues. The sensitivity and specificity of first-line and second-line drugs from NCCN guidelines will be detected on the organoids. Ovarian cancer (CA125、HE4、CEA、CA-199) markers will be tested within one week. After the treatment period of 3 and 6 months, the short-term efficacy will be evaluated according to the efficacy evaluation standard of solid tumor (Recist1.1) (the window period is 4 weeks). Biochemical indexes, adverse reactions, and prognosis (PFS, OS) will be followed. Compared with the efficacy of the actual clinical regimen, the potency of organoid as a drug screening model will be assessed.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Mar 2022 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Dec 2024, 33 months after the start.

Of 197 non-industry observational studies under Ovarian Neoplasms, half reached primary completion within 70 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 38 and three quarters within 238. This study's planned 33 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 238 studies reached it within 59 months; a quarter within 35 and three quarters within 152.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Aug 31, 2023, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
