Vismodegib Combined With Atezolizumab in Platinum Resistant Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, and Primary Peritoneal Cancer (NCT05538091)

Phase II Clinical Trial Combining the Hedgehog Inhibitor Vismodegib With the PD-L1 Inhibitor Atezolizumab in Patients With Platinum Resistant Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, and Primary Peritoneal Cancer

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Phase2 ๐Ÿ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: Ronald Buckanovich

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

This trial will treat patients with platinum resistant ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer as defined by a progression free interval within six months of completion of most recent platinum-based treatment with a combination of vismodegib and atezolizumab. Despite recent improvements in treatment of ovarian cancer with the introduction of PARP inhibitors, response rates to therapy in the platinum resistant setting remain dismal with response rates of only 10-20% reported for single agent cytotoxic therapies. Given the poor prognosis and limited treatment options for these patients, this population is considered appropriate for trials of novel therapeutic candidates.
