Article Synopsis
  • Ovarian cancer, especially in its platinum-resistant form (PROC), presents significant challenges due to limited treatment options and poor prognosis for patients.
  • This study aimed to find markers for monitoring treatment response in 123 PROC patients participating in the GANNET53 clinical trial assessing Ganetespib combined with standard chemotherapy.
  • Results showed that the presence of the ERCC1 gene was linked to a higher risk of disease progression, while the CDH1 and ESR1 genes appeared to have a protective effect, suggesting the potential of using liquid biopsy samples for better disease management.

Peripheral neuropathy (PN) is a recognized side effect of microtubule-targeting agents and the most clinically relevant toxicity observed with the epothilone sagopilone (SAG). Studies suggest that acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC) may prevent chemotherapy-induced PN. We conducted a prospective, placebo (PBO)-controlled, double-blind, randomized trial to investigate the safety and efficacy of ALC for the prevention of SAG-induced PN.
