Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates include female patients aged 18 and older with high-grade epithelial ovarian cancer that has relapsed after platinum-containing chemotherapy.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with low-grade ovarian cancer or those who have not received prior platinum-containing therapy may not benefit from this study.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This Phase 2, open-label, multicohort study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a combination therapy involving AK104, AK112, and chemotherapy in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer. AK104 is a bispecific monoclonal antibody targeting CTLA-4 and PD-1, while AK112 targets VEGF and PD-1. The study will enroll female participants who have histologically diagnosed high-grade epithelial ovarian cancer that has relapsed after standard chemotherapy. Participants will be monitored for treatment response and safety outcomes throughout the study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this combination therapy could provide a new treatment option for patients with recurrent ovarian cancer.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies involving combination therapies targeting similar pathways have shown promising results, suggesting potential for success in this approach.
