Lead Sponsor:

NYU Langone Health

Collaborating Sponsors:

GlaxoSmithKline

Conditions:

Ovarian Carcinoma

Eligibility:

FEMALE

18-75 years

Phase:

PHASE1

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess feasibility and safety of using once daily Fondaparinux Sodium (ARIXTRA®) in patients with ovarian cancer who are in 'clinical remission' (no clinical evidence o...

Detailed Description

Rationale: A large body of work supports the association of abnormal coagulation (blood clot formation) and malignancy. A coagulation enzyme thrombin is able to 1) enhance cancer cell adhesion to pla...
