Adavosertib Before Surgery in Treating Patients With Advanced High Grade Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, or Primary Peritoneal Cancer (NCT02659241)

A Pilot Study of Wee1 Inhibition Induction Prior to Tumor Reductive Surgery in Ovarian Cancer

๐Ÿ”ต Active, Not Recruiting Early Phase1 ๐Ÿ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: M.D. Anderson Cancer Center

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This pilot early phase I trial studies how adavosertib affects the tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) of patients undergoing surgery for high grade (fast growing or aggressive) ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that has spread to other places in the body (advanced). Certain characteristics in the DNA of these patients may affect how well they respond to treatment. Learning how adavosertib affects DNA in tumor cells may help doctors plan effective treatment.
