New hope for ovarian cancer patients with residual disease after surgery

NCT ID NCT02884648

Summary

This study is testing whether the drug bevacizumab (Avastin) can help control ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that was discovered during a second surgery after initial treatment. The research involves 35 participants who have completed standard chemotherapy and surgery but still have cancer cells present. Participants receive bevacizumab by IV every 3 weeks for as long as it continues to help them, with regular scans to monitor progress.
