What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial explores a new treatment, AZD5335, for women with a specific type of ovarian cancer that does not respond well to platinum-based treatments. The researchers aim to determine if AZD5335 can help these patients live longer without their cancer worsening compared to standard treatments. The trial involves different groups based on the levels of a protein called FRα, which may be present in cancer cells. Women with high-grade ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer who have experienced progression after platinum treatments might be suitable for this study. As a Phase 3 trial, this study represents the final step before FDA approval, offering participants a chance to contribute to potentially groundbreaking treatment advancements.

Will I have to stop taking my current medications?

The trial information does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications. It's best to discuss this with the trial coordinators or your doctor.

Is there any evidence suggesting that this trial's treatments are likely to be safe?

A previous study found AZD5335 to be safe for patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. While some side effects occurred, they were mostly mild and manageable by doctors. Early research suggests AZD5335 may be effective against this cancer type.

Research also shows that Mirvetuximab Soravtansine is generally well-tolerated by patients with FRα-positive, platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. Studies have demonstrated significant benefits over traditional chemotherapy, with fewer severe side effects.

For those considering joining this clinical trial, these findings indicate that both AZD5335 and Mirvetuximab Soravtansine have undergone safety studies in humans, with usually manageable side effects.12345

Why are researchers excited about this trial's treatments?

Researchers are excited about AZD5335 because it offers a novel approach for treating platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. Unlike standard treatments such as paclitaxel, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin, or topotecan, which rely on traditional chemotherapy mechanisms, AZD5335 targets specific genetic markers in cancer cells, potentially improving effectiveness and reducing side effects. Additionally, AZD5335 is administered intravenously and designed to work well in patients with both FRa-high and FRa-low tumors, offering a more personalized treatment option. This targeted therapy could change the game by providing a more precise attack on cancer cells, leading to better outcomes for patients.

What evidence suggests that this trial's treatments could be effective for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer?

Research has shown that AZD5335, one of the treatments in this trial, could be promising for treating ovarian cancer. It targets a protein called FRα on cancer cells and delivers a potent cancer-fighting drug directly to them. In studies with cancer models similar to human cases, AZD5335 had a response rate of 82%, indicating it might effectively slow or stop cancer growth.

Mirvetuximab Soravtansine, another treatment option in this trial, has demonstrated superior efficacy compared to traditional chemotherapy for patients with FRα-positive, platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. It helps patients live longer without cancer progression and also increases overall survival time. These findings suggest that both treatments could be beneficial for managing difficult-to-treat ovarian cancer.12567

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?

This trial is for women with high-grade, platinum-resistant ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. They must have had a limited number of prior treatments and shown progression after their most recent therapy. Participants need to provide a tumor tissue sample and those with BRCA mutations should have tried PARPi unless contraindicated.

Inclusion Criteria

Key
I have been diagnosed with high-grade serous ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer.
I have a BRCA mutation and have tried PARPi treatment unless I couldn't due to health reasons.

What Are the Treatments Tested in This Trial?

Interventions

  • AZD5335
  • Mirvetuximab Soravtansine

Trial Overview

The study tests AZD5335 against standard chemotherapy drugs (Paclitaxel, PLD, Topotecan) or MIRV in patients with different levels of FRα expression. The goal is to see if AZD5335 can extend the time without disease progression better than current treatments.
