Decitabine and Selinexor in Combination to Reverse Drug Resistance With Standard Chemotherapy in Ovarian Cancer

Recruiting now · Phase 2

Conditions studied: Ovarian Cancer

In brief

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the side effects and effectiveness of this novel four-drug combination of chemotherapy (decitabine, selinexor, carboplatin and paclitaxel) on patients with relapsed ovarian, fallopian or primary peritoneal carcinoma. Recently the investigators have found that the combination of decitabine and selinexor, two Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved chemotherapy agents, may prevent or reverse the development of drug resistance and further the remissions and duration of remissions with standard ovarian cancer chemotherapy with carboplatin and paclitaxel. As decitabine and selinexor are not FDA approved for the participant's cancer, these agents are investigational.

You may not qualify if…

• Participants must not have received Selinexor or another XPO1 inhibitor previously.
• Participants must not have had any concurrent medical condition or disease (eg, uncontrolled active hypertension, uncontrolled active diabetes, active systemic infection, etc.)
• Participants must not have uncontrolled active infection. Participants on prophylactic antibiotics or with a controlled infection within 1 week prior to C1D1 are acceptable.
• Participants must not have known intolerance, hypersensitivity, or contraindication to platinum or taxane therapy
• Participants must not have active, unstable cardiovascular function
• Participants must not have myocardial infarction within 3 months prior to starting
• Participants with untreated central nervous system (CNS) metastases are ineligible.
