It is a Phase II trial for recurrent endometrial or ovarian cancer with ANY “endometriod” histology including mixed or carcinosarcoma as long as a portion of it had “endometriod” histology. DKN-01 (an inhibitor of DKK1, which modulates both the canonical and noncanonical Wnt signaling pathway) +/- weekly Paclitaxel. DKK1 is thought to promote immune evasion, so blocking it activates the immune system to fight the cancer.
