NCT00460200

Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Measuring levels of interleukin-6 and depression may help doctors understand the relationship between interleukin-6 and depression. It may also help the study of cancer in the future. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying depression and interleukin-6 production in patients with ovarian epithelial cancer.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (7)

  • Correlation of tumor production of interleukin (IL)-6, serum levels of IL-6, and IL-6 coding or promoter single nucleotide polymorphisms with IL-6 protein production

  • Correlation of tumor culture supernatant, ascitic fluid, and/or serum IL-6 level with levels of depression and/or anxiety

  • Effects of neuroendocrine activity on modulation of IL-6 production

  • Comparison of immune response to autologous tumor tissue in "MLR-like" reactions between tumor and peripheral blood mononuclear cells in vitro

  • Correlation of levels of immunologic response with relapse and/or survival times, clinical response to CA 125 antibody treatment, and IL-6 parameters

  • Establishment of a major histocompatibility complex (MHC) tetramer assay for assessing cytotoxic T lymphocyte levels in peripheral blood

  • Incidence of herpes virus infections
