Abstract

Objective: Pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) promotes insulin-like growth factor (IGF) pathway activity, which directly correlates to ovarian cancer (OC) tumorigenesis. Because inhibition of PAPP-A with a novel monoclonal antibody to PAPP-A (mAb-PA) had preliminary activity in an OC patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model, we hypothesize that adding mAb-PA to carboplatin/paclitaxel (CP) would partially overcome platinum resistance in a panel of OC PDX.
