Program Overview
This study is testing a new treatment approach for patients with advanced ovarian or endometrial cancer that has come back or spread. The treatment combines BMX-001, a drug that may protect healthy cells and boost the effects of chemotherapy, with paclitaxel, a common chemotherapy drug. The goal is to see if this combination can help control the cancer better and reduce side effects like nerve damage, which can affect quality of life. The trial will be conducted at the Duke Cancer Institute and will determine the best dose of BMX-001 to use with paclitaxel. Researchers will also look at how well the treatment works and how it affects patients' quality of life.
Description
This clinical trial is designed to find the best dose of BMX-001 when used with paclitaxel in patients with advanced ovarian or endometrial cancer. The study is in two phases: Phase 1 will test different doses to find the safest and most effective one, while Phase 2 will look at how well the treatment works. Patients will receive weekly doses of paclitaxel and BMX-001, starting with a low dose of BMX-001 and increasing if it is well-tolerated. The study will also measure how the treatment affects cancer growth and patients' quality of life. Up to 27 patients will participate, and the trial will use blood tests and other assessments to track the treatment's effects. The study aims to improve treatment options for patients with these types of cancer by finding a combination that enhances tumor control and reduces side effects.
