Abstract 5136
Background
Maintenance PARPis are standard of care for pts with recurrent ovarian cancer. Optimal treatment following PARPi resistance is currently unknown. PARPi-resistant recurrent ovarian cancer with expected platinum sensitivity is associated with high mutational load and homologous recombination deficiency. Ataxia telangiectasia and rad3-related (ATR) inhibition combined with immune checkpoint inhibition and DNA-damaging agents, such as carboplatin, has potential for activity following PARPi resistance by increasing DNA damage, immunologic cell death and potential immunological targets.
Trial design
NCT03704467 is an open-label, multicentre, international, 2-part study including participants with PARPi-resistant, recurrent epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal or fallopian tube cancer. Pts must have received ≥2 platinum-based tx (and responded to the last platinum-based tx); last platinum dose ≥ 6 months prior; ≥4 months PARPi maintenance tx before progression (PD) and known BRCA1/2 mutation status. Part A is a safety run-in, with dose de-escalation to find a recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of 3weekly carboplatin + M6620 (an ATR inhibitor) + avelumab (a programmed death ligand-blocking mAB; all iv). Planned starting doses are carboplatin AUC 5; M6620 90 mg/m2; avelumab 1600 mg. In Part B, pts will be randomized (stratified by BRCA gene status) to carboplatin + M6620 (at the RP2D from Part A) + avelumab or SC (platinum-based doublet ± bevacizumab; investigator’s choice). After completion of ≤ 6 triplet cycles in Part A/B, pts can receive avelumab maintenance tx (800 mg every 2 weeks) until PD, unacceptable toxicity, withdrawal of consent, death, or ≥ 12 months tx following confirmed complete response. The primary objective of Part B is progression-free survival. Secondary objectives for Part A/B include safety/tolerability; pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, antitumor activity (BOR, duration of response, time to progression/subsequent tx). Planned enrolment: Part A 3–18 pts (modified 3 + 3 design); Part B ∼72 pts. Enrolment began in Nov 2018 and the first patient is enrolled.
