Collection of Tissue Samples From Patients With Stage III or Stage IV Ovarian Epithelial Cancer

December 9, 2015 updated by: Dineo Khabele, Vanderbilt University

Orthotopic Propagation of Primary Human Ovarian Tumors for Preclinical Investigation of Novel Anti-Tumor Agents.

RATIONALE: Collecting and storing samples of tumor tissue and ascites fluid from patients to test in the laboratory may help the study of cancer.

PURPOSE: This pre-clinical research study is collecting tissue samples and ascites fluid from patients with stage III or stage IV ovarian/primary peritoneal/fallopian tube epithelial cancer.

Conditions

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

  • To generate a translational ovarian cancer model using tumor tissue and cells from patients with stage III-IV ovarian/primary peritoneal/fallopian tube epithelial cancer for drug response and development.

OUTLINE: Tissue and fluid samples are collected at the time of surgery or paracentesis and used in laboratory experiments and in animal models. Health data is collected from patient medical records before, during, and after surgery.

After surgery, patients are followed up for 5 years.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Establishment of a "live" library of primary ovarian epithelial tumors
Time Frame: 5 year follow up of outcome.
Our approach is to establish a "live" library of primary tumors from patients diagnosed with ovarian cancer by transplanting this tissue into a host mouse model. This preclinical model system will allow us to test the response to standard and novel therapeutics and will provide a perpetual tumor archive for future experiments that will probe critical molecular pathways involved in the pathogenesis of ovarian cancer and similar cancer types (primary peritoneal and fallopian tube).
5 year follow up of outcome.
