• A Phase 2 Trial of Ribociclib (LEE011) and Letrozole in ER Positive Relapsed Ovarian Cancer, Fallopian Tube Cancer, Primary Peritoneal Carcinomas, and Endometrial Cancers. Jacksonville, Fla., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Rochester, Minn.

  This phase II trial studies how well ribociclib and letrozole work in treating patients with estrogen receptor (ER) positive ovarian, fallopian tube, primary peritoneal, or endometrial cancer that has returned (come back) after a period of improvement. Ribociclib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some enzymes needed for cell growth. Cancer cells that are estrogen receptor positive may need estrogen to grow. Letrozole lowers the amount of estrogen made by the body and this may stop the growth of tumor cells that need estrogen to grow. Giving ribociclib together with letrozole may be an effective treatment in patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, primary peritoneal, or endometrial cancer.

• A Phase III Study Comparing Single-Agent Olaparib or the Combination of Cediranib and Olaparib to Standard Platinum-Based Chemotherapy in Women With Recurrent Platinum-Sensitive Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, or Primary Peritoneal Cancer Rochester, Minn., La Crosse, Wis., Mankato, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

  This randomized phase III trial studies olaparib or cediranib maleate and olaparib to see how well they work compared with standard platinum-based chemotherapy in treating patients with platinum-sensitive ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer that has come back. Olaparib and cediranib maleate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Cediranib maleate may stop the growth of ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer by blocking the growth of new blood vessels necessary for tumor growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin, paclitaxel, gemcitabine hydrochloride, and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known whether olaparib or cediranib maleate and olaparib is more effective than standard platinum-based chemotherapy in treating patients with platinum-sensitive ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.

• A Randomized Multicenter Phase II Trial to Evaluate the Safety, Efficacy and Immunogenicity of Vaccination With Folate Receptor Alpha Peptides With GM-CSF Versus GM-CSF Alone in Patients With Platinum Sensitive Ovarian Cancer and a Response or Stable Disease to Platinum Therapy Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Jacksonville, Fla., Rochester, Minn.

  This is a double-blind, randomized, Phase II trial. Patients with advanced ovarian cancer that has not progressed following completion of standard-of-care chemotherapy are eligible to participate. Patients will be randomized to either the vaccine regimen with GM-CSF adjuvant or GM-CSF adjuvant alone as a control group. Treatment will be administered as a consolidation therapy beginning within one year of the last administration of platinum.

• A Randomized Phase 2 Study of Cabozantinib in Combination With Nivolumab in Advanced, Recurrent Metastatic Endometrial Cancer Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

  The purpose of this study is to determine how well cabozantinib and nivolumab work in treating patients with endometrial cancer that has come back or spread to other places in the body.

• Avatar-Directed Chemotherapy in Platinum-Resistant Ovarian, Primary Peritoneal and Fallopian Tube Cancers Jacksonville, Fla., Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

  This phase II trial studies how well Avatar-directed chemotherapy works in treating patients with ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer that does not respond to platinum anti-cancer drugs. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, gemcitabine hydrochloride, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride, topotecan hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Using an Avatar, a living tumor sample with similar genetic characteristics to the original tumor, may help determine which chemotherapy is most effective. 

• Chemotherapy Toxicity in Elderly Women with Ovarian, Primary Peritoneal or Fallopian Tube Cancer Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz.

  This trial studies the chemotherapy toxicity on quality of life in older patients with stage I, stage II, stage III, or stage IV ovarian epithelial, primary peritoneal cavity, or fallopian tube cancer. Learning about the side effects of chemotherapy in older patients may help doctors plan better ways to treat cancer.

• Phase I/II Clinical Study of Niraparib in Combination with Pembrolizumab in Patients with Advanced or Metastatic Triple-Negative Breast Cancer and in Patients with Recurrent Ovarian Cancer (TOPACIO) Rochester, Minn., Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz., Jacksonville, Fla.

  The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of combined treatment with niraparib and pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in patients who have triple-negative breast cancer that is advanced or has spread, or ovarian cancer that has returned after previous treatment.
