This trial is for adult women with high-grade serous ovarian cancer that progressed within six months after their last platinum chemotherapy. There is no limit on earlier treatment lines.
The idea: repurpose oral atovaquone, an infection medicine, as a cancer treatment. Researchers test its proposed inhibition of STAT3 signaling and examine changes in tumor immune cells. Everyone receives atovaquone; there is no chemotherapy comparison arm. CT scans and biopsy or abdominal-fluid sampling track the study.
This phase 2 study plans 28 patients. Namita Khanna leads Emory's recruiting Atlanta site.
