Safety Study of a Genetically Modified Adenovirus in Ovarian Cancer Patients

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2010-06-01
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: Female

Summary

The primary purpose of this study is to determine the maximally tolerated dose and spectrum of toxicities encountered with intraperitoneal delivery of a RGD modified conditionally replicative adenovirus (Ad5-Delta 24RGD) in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer.

Secondary objectives :

• To determine the biologic effects encountered with intraperitoneal delivery of Ad5-Delta 24RGD in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer cells

• To determine immunologic response generated against Ad5-Delta 24RGD when administered intraperitoneally to patients with recurrent ovarian adenocarcinoma

• To determine potential clinical activity of Ad5-Delta 24RGD when administered intraperitoneally to patients with recurrent ovarian adenocarcinoma

• Phase: Phase 1
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients with epithelial ovarian tumors of low malignant potential (with or without invasive implants), with ovarian stromal tumors, or with germ cell tumors of the ovary are ineligible to participate in the study
