NCT ID NCT04931342

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This phase 2 trial is testing several targeted drugs in people with rare types of ovarian cancer that have come back or not gone away. The drugs are chosen based on specific biomarkers in each patient's tumor. The goal is to see if these treatments can shrink or control the cancer. About 176 participants will receive one of four drugs: ipatasertib, cobimetinib, trastuzumab emtansine, or atezolizumab.
