Waitlist Available
Led By Laura Holman
Research Sponsored by University of Oklahoma
Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial Must have
Women undergoing gynecologic surgery for presumed benign indications that includes the removal of their fallopian tubes. This may include sterilization procedures, hysterectomy or partial or full adnexectomy.
Be older than 18 years old
Must not have
Women less than 21 years of age
Women who have presumed or known gynecologic cancer

Summary
This trial will test if taking a small amount of aspirin daily can reduce inflammation in women who are having their fallopian tubes removed.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for women over 21 who are having surgery to remove their fallopian tubes and have completed childbearing. They should not be at high risk for fallopian tube cancer, nor have a history of gynecologic cancer, bleeding disorders, or regular use of NSAIDs or aspirin. Women with gastritis, peptic ulcers, aspirin allergies, asthma with nasal polyps are excluded.
What is being tested?
The study tests the effects of taking low-dose aspirin (81 mg) daily for two weeks before surgery on the biological and immunological aspects of normal fallopian tube tissue. The tissues removed during surgery will be analyzed to assess these changes.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects from low-dose aspirin may include increased risk of bleeding, gastrointestinal issues like stomach pain or heartburn, allergic reactions in those sensitive to NSAIDs or aspirin.

Other Research
The most common treatments for ovarian cancer include surgery, chemotherapy, and targeted therapies. Surgery aims to remove as much of the tumor as possible, while chemotherapy uses cytotoxic drugs to kill cancer cells or stop them from dividing.
Targeted therapies, such as PARP inhibitors, focus on specific molecular targets associated with cancer. Low-dose aspirin, which is being studied for its anti-inflammatory and antiplatelet effects, may help by reducing inflammation and preventing blood clots, potentially improving drug delivery to residual tumor cells and enhancing overall treatment efficacy.
This matters for ovarian cancer patients as it could lead to better management of the disease and improved outcomes.
