Summary

This trial will test a new combination of drugs to treat ovarian cancer. The drugs will be given through IV and intraperitoneal (IP) infusion. The trial will evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the new combination.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer, who can undergo laparoscopy and have no major abdominal issues or severe allergies to the drugs used. They must not be pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning pregnancy soon. Participants should be in good physical condition (ECOG 0-1) and agree to follow-up monitoring.
What is being tested?
The study tests a combination of intraperitoneal cisplatin and rintatolimod with IV pembrolizumab on patients with first or second recurrence of ovarian cancer. It aims to assess safety and effectiveness in those who responded well previously to platinum-based therapy.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include allergic reactions to medications, kidney problems from cisplatin, immune-related issues due to pembrolizumab like inflammation in organs, fatigue, digestive disturbances, blood disorders, increased risk of infections.
