NCT ID NCT03877796
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026 · Updated 5 times
Summary
This study is testing a device called a Drug Response Predictor (DRP) that uses a sample of a patient's tumor to see if it will respond to certain cancer drugs. The trial involves 60 people with advanced ovarian cancer that has stopped responding to platinum chemotherapy. The goal is to see if the DRP can guide future treatment choices and also check if it correctly predicts past drug responses.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Drug Response Predictor (DRP) assay
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help doctors choose the right cancer drug for each patient, improving treatment effectiveness.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage study with only 60 participants, and the predictor may not accurately forecast drug response in all cases.
