New drug combo aims to fight advanced ovarian cancer before surgery
NCT ID NCT07322094
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jul 14, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study tests whether adding an experimental drug called TORL-1-23 to standard chemotherapy before surgery can help women with advanced ovarian cancer. About 60 participants with a specific tumor marker (CLDN6) will receive the combination, then undergo surgery. The goal is to see if the treatment is safe and shrinks tumors more effectively.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- TORL-1-23 (an experimental antibody-drug conjugate) combined with chemotherapy drugs paclitaxel and carboplatin
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a new treatment option that improves outcomes for women with advanced ovarian cancer.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-phase trial with only 60 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The drug combination may cause serious side effects or fail to improve survival.
