Where does OCRA's clinical trial data come from?

OCRA indexes clinical trials from ClinicalTrials.gov, the official U.S. registry maintained by the National Library of Medicine. Trials are matched to diseases, investigators, and funded research tracked across the platform.

How do I find clinical trials for ovarian cancer?

Search by condition, treatment type, trial phase, or NCT identifier. Each trial page shows current status, eligibility criteria, study locations, and a direct link to the ClinicalTrials.gov source record.

How often is clinical trial data updated?

Trial data is refreshed through periodic ingestion from the ClinicalTrials.gov v2 API. Status changes, new enrollments, and newly registered trials are captured during each update cycle.

A Trial for Patients With Advanced/Recurrent Endometrial Cancer

NCT00377520CompletedPHASE2INTERVENTIONAL

Summary

The intent of this protocol is to screen a new agent for activity in patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial carcinoma. This phase II trial is studying how well pemetrexed disodium works in treating patients with advanced or recurrent endometrial carcinoma.

* Patients must have had one prior chemotherapeutic regimen for management of endometrial carcinoma.
* Patients must have signed an approved informed consent.
* Patients of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test prior to the study entry and be practicing an effective form of contraception during the study and for at least 3 months following the last dose of Pemetrexed.
* Patients must discontinue nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAIDs) medications 2-5 days prior to and for 1-2 days after receiving Pemetrexed, depending on the half-life of the NSAIDs treatment.
* Patients must agree to this schedule in conjunction with every dose of Pemetrexed.
* Patients must receive 350-1000 mcg of folic acid (e.g. one prenatal vitamin) starting 7 days prior to the first treatment with Pemetrexed.
* Patients must be able to ingest 350-1000 mcg of folic acid daily until 3 weeks after the last dose of Pemetrexed.
* Patients must receive 4 mg Dexamethasone by mouth twice daily, 1 day prior to the dose, the day of and the day after every dose of Pemetrexed.
* Patients must receive a 1000 mcg vitamin B12 injection 7 days prior to receiving the first treatment with Pemetrexed.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients who have had prior therapy with Pemetrexed
* Patients who have received radiation to more than 25% of marrow bearing areas

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes

Tumor Response

Best response recorded from the start of treatment until disease progression/recurrence using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria that defines when participants improve ("respond"), stay the same ("stable"), or worsen ("progression") during treatment. Complete response (CR) = disappearance of all target lesions; Partial response (PR) = 30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Progressive disease (PD) = 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Stable disease (SD) = small changes that do not meet above criteria.

Time frame: baseline to measured progressive disease (up to 24 months)

Secondary Outcomes

Number of Participants With Adverse Events by Grade (Measures of Toxicity)

Adverse events were graded using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 3.0 (CTCAE v3.0) for defining and grading specific adverse events. A grading (severity) scale is provided for each adverse event term. Grades range from 0 (none) to 5 (death). The worst grade event per cycle is reported.

Time frame: every 21-day cycle (up to 24 months)
