Ovarian Cancer
Conditions
Brief summary
The main goal of this study is to employ a novel proteomic approach to identify predictive tumor biomarkers that will increase the efficacy of insulin-like growth factor (IGF1R) targeted therapy in epithelial ovarian cancer. It is expected that these predictive biomarkers will be applied to increase the response rate in selected groups of patients.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Responsive to IGF1R therapy | One year | Mean tumor volume will be calculated and growth inhibition will be reported as the percentage decrease of tumor volume compared with the control. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Proteomic Signature of IGF1R Responsive Tumors | One year | Mass Spectrometry will be used to compare IGF1R responsive and non-responsive tumors to identify the proteins associated with sensitivity to IGF1R therapy. |
