Summary

This study tests whether combining a cancer vaccine (DPX-Survivac) with an immunotherapy drug (pembrolizumab) and low-dose chemotherapy can shrink tumors in people with advanced ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. The vaccine trains the immune system to attack cancer cells, while pembrolizumab helps the immune system stay active. The study includes 47 participants whose cancer has returned after prior treatment.
