First seen Apr 13, 2026 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 12 times

Summary

This study tested whether combining three drugs—nivolumab, bevacizumab, and rucaparib—can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth in people whose ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer has returned after standard treatment. About 72 adults took part. The goal was to see how many patients had their tumors shrink or disappear. This is not a cure, but aims to control the disease.
