Ovarian cancer clinical trials around the UK
Women with ovarian cancer told us how hard it was to find information about clinical trials taking place close to them, and that most who took part in our Pathfinder Study in 2009 had not been asked whether they would like to consider taking part in a clinical trial.
There are lots of things to consider when thinking about trials. We have some information currently on our site, with more to come very soon. Please do take a look. Unlike any other website in the UK, we now offer the facility to find out about trials in your local area, and where we have been given permission to publish it, information about how to contact the local team. It will be important to remember that you may or may not be allowed to join a trial, but it will provide a useful starting place for discussions with your clinician.
Just enter your postcode, and the distance you would be prepared to travel.
DNA Methylation single centre, Glasgow A non-randomised, single centre, sample collection trial of changes in ovarian tumour DNA methylation following chemotherapy at relapse.
Enumeration and Molecular Characterisation of Circulating Endothelial Cells (CECs) and Circulating Endothelial Progenitors (CEPs) in patients with Advanced Epithelial Ovarian and Endometrial Cancer Study of blood cells in patients with Advanced Epithelial Ovarian and Endometrial Cancer. In this study we would like to investigate the effect your chemotherapy has on these cells. This information will allow us to monitor the effectiveness of treatment in patients receiving chemotherapy or drugs which effect blood vessels.
ICON8 Ysbyty Gwynedd In this study we want to find out if weekly chemotherapy is more effective than standard chemotherapy treatment in ovarian cancer. We also want to see if weekly chemotherapy causes more or fewer side-effects than standard chemotherapy. Although weekly chemotherapy involves more doses of chemotherapy than standard chemotehrapy, the treatment couse is the same length for both.
ICON8 York District Hospital In this study we want to find out if weekly chemotherapy is more effective than standard chemotherapy treatment in ovarian cancer. We also want to see if weekly chemotherapy causes more or fewer side-effects than standard chemotherapy. Although weekly chemotherapy involves more doses of chemotherapy than standard chemotehrapy, the treatment couse is the same length for both.
ICON8 Yeovil District Hospital In this study we want to find out if weekly chemotherapy is more effective than standard chemotherapy treatment in ovarian cancer. We also want to see if weekly chemotherapy causes more or fewer side-effects than standard chemotherapy.
