Official title

A Phase 1, Open Label, Dose Escalation Study of the Safety, Tolerability and Preliminary Efficacy of Intraperitoneal EGEN-001 in Patients With Recurrent Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Ovarian cancer may be caused by a build-up of genetic defects, or damaged genes within the cells of the body. Because the genes are damaged, the body is unable to produce a group of proteins called cytokines which are used by the immune system to fight cancer and some infections. The investigational gene transfer agent EGEN-001 (phIL-12-005/PPC) contains the human gene for interleukin-12 \[IL-12\] (a cytokine) in a special carrier system designed to enter the cells and help the body produce cytokines. This study has two purposes; the first is to determine what different strengths of EGEN-001 can be given safely without major side effects, and the second is to see if EGEN-001 is able to slow down the growth of ovarian cancer.
