Clinical Trials Carolyn Y. Muller is currently running
Ipatasertib + Megestrol Acetate
for Endometrial Cancer
This trial is testing if combining two drugs, ipatasertib and megestrol acetate, is more effective than using megestrol acetate alone for treating women with endometrial cancer that has returned or spread. Ipatasertib blocks enzymes needed for cancer cell growth, while megestrol acetate reduces and blocks estrogen, which some cancer cells need to grow.

Selumetinib + Olaparib
for Ovarian and Endometrial Cancer
This phase II ComboMATCH treatment trial compares selumetinib plus olaparib to selumetinib alone in women with endometrial or ovarian (fallopian tube and primary peritoneal) cancer that has come back (recurrent) or that remains despite treatment (persistent) and harbors a mutation in the RAS pathway. Selumetinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Olaparib is an inhibitor of PARP, an enzyme that helps repair deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) when it becomes damaged. Blocking PARP may help keep tumor cells from repairing their damaged DNA, causing them to die. PARP inhibitors are a type of targeted therapy. The addition of olaparib to selumetinib could increase the percentage of tumors that shrink as well as lengthen the time that the tumors remain stable (without progression) as compared to selumetinib alone.
