Experimental antibody boosts chemo in ovarian cancer trial
NCT ID NCT05605535
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This phase 2 trial tests whether adding an experimental antibody called oregovomab to standard chemotherapy (paclitaxel and carboplatin) helps control advanced ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer better than chemo alone. About 88 women with newly diagnosed stage III or IV disease will receive the combination or a placebo before and after surgery. The main goal is to see if the combination improves progression-free survival at 12 months.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Oregovomab (an experimental antibody) plus chemotherapy (paclitaxel and carboplatin)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could lead to a new treatment option that helps control advanced ovarian cancer for longer before surgery.
- What could go wrong
- This is a mid-stage trial with only 88 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The drug could cause side effects or not improve outcomes compared to chemo alone.
