Single-arm phase II trial of carboplatin and mirvetuximab soravtansine as neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) for advanced- stage ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer (EOC) who are folate receptor α positive (NCT04606914) (578)

Abstract

Objectives: The primary objective is to assess the feasibility and safety of obtaining tissue, assessing alpha-folate receptor status, and initiating treatment based on this data using a 21-day schedule in the advanced-stage ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer patients, without an unacceptable interval debulking surgery (IDS) delay. Secondary objectives include assessing progression-free survival, percentage of disease-free survival at two years, ORR prior to IDS per iRECIST 1.1 and GCIG CA-125 criteria, and percentage of optimal cytoreduction and pathological complete response (pCR) at IDS. Methods: This is a phase II study design with carboplatin and mirvetuximab (FRa receptor monoclonal antibody.) Patients with biopsy-confirmed, newly diagnosed, advanced-stage serous epithelial ovarian cancer appropriate for NACT will have centralized tumor evaluation via immunohistochemistry for FRa receptor overexpression. IHC staining is 2+ in 75% of cells will define eligibility. Patients will receive NACT with one lead-in cycle of single-agent carboplatin AUC 5/6, physician’s choice), followed by AUC 5 carboplatin and Mirvetuximab 6mg/kg adjusted to ideal body weight every 21days for three cycles prior to interval cytoreductive surgery (iCRS.) Patients eligible for surgery will undergo an iCRS no sooner than three weeks but no later than six weeks following the completion of cycle 3. Postoperatively, patients will complete three additional cycles of carboplatin-mirvetuximab for a total of 6 intended cycles. A total of 70 patients will be included. Patients with BRCA mutations are not excluded from this trial and may receive standard of care maintenance therapy, including bevacizumab and/or PARP inhibitors per physician’s choice in the adjuvant setting. After completion of adjuvant treatment, participants will be assessed approximately every 12 weeks by radiologic imaging to monitor disease status using RECIST 1.1 criteria.
