Official Title: A Phase 1b Study of OMP-305B83 Plus Weekly Paclitaxel in Subjects With Platinum Resistant Ovarian, Primary Peritoneal or Fallopian Tube Cancer

Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy and safety of an experimental drug, OMP-305B83, when given in combination with paclitaxel. OMP-305B83 is a humanized monoclonal antibody and was developed to target cancer stem cells. Based on preclinical studies, it is believed that OMP-305B83 may block the growth of cancer stem cells and may also impair the productive growth of new blood vessels, which tumors need to grow and spread.
