Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This phase II trial studies how well auranofin and sirolimus work in treating participants with ovarian cancer. Immunosuppressive therapy, such as auranofin and sirolimus, is used to decrease the body?s immune response and may increase blood cell count.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To estimate the overall tumor response rate (ORR, that is, complete response \[CR\] + partial response \[PR\]) of the combination of auranofin and sirolimus in the setting of metastatic serous ovarian cancer across all patients.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To estimate the overall tumor response rate (ORR, that is, complete response \[CR\] + partial response \[PR\]) of the combination of auranofin and sirolimus in the setting of metastatic serous ovarian cancer within patients that have overexpression of PKCiota.

II. To estimate progression-free survival, overall survival, and adverse events from the combination of auranofin and sirolimus.

CORRELATIVE OBJECTIVES:

I. To explore whether PKCiota-relevant biomarkers in serous ovarian cancer tumors are associated with treatment response patterns, such as ORR, progression free survival, and overall survival.

OUTLINE:

Participants receive auranofin orally (PO) once daily (QD) and sirolimus PO QD on days 1-28. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unaccepted toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, participants are followed up every 6 months for 3 years.
