-Summary

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat ovarian cancer (OC). Current treatment for OC may start with surgery to remove as much of the cancer as possible. After surgery, people may receive chemotherapy. After chemotherapy, standard care options may include:

Maintenance treatment, which is used after another therapy to keep the cancer from growing, spreading, or coming back. Bevacizumab is a targeted therapy used as standard maintenance treatment. Targeted therapy works to control how specific types of cancer cells grow and spread.

Observation, which is watching to see if cancer grows or worsens. The study medicine, raludotatug deruxtecan- R-DXd, is a targeted therapy. The goal of this study is to learn if people who receive R-DXd maintenance treatment with or without bevacizumab live longer without the cancer getting worse than people who receive standard care.

+Arms and interventions

ArmTypeInterventionsDescription
Arm 1: R-DXd with or without bevacizumabExperimentalBiological: R-DXd; Drug: BevacizumabParticipants will receive intravenous (IV) raludotatug deruxtecan (R-DXd)with or without IV bevacizumab for up to 2 years until progressive disease (PD), unacceptable toxicity, or other protocol-specified reason for discontinuation.
Arm 2: Standard of care (bevacizumab or observation only)Active comparatorDrug: BevacizumabParticipants will receive bevacizumab 15 mg/kg IV q3w for up to 22 cycles (each cycle=21 days) until disease progression, prohibitive toxicity, or other protocol-defined reason for discontinuation of study intervention or will be observed and actively followed if not receiving bevacizumab.
  • R-DXd (Biological): R-DXd administered as an intravenously (IV) infusion
  • Bevacizumab (Drug), also known as Avastin®, MVASI®, Altuzan®: Administered as an intravenously IV infusion

+Outcome measures

Primary outcomes

  • Progression-Free Survival (PFS) [Up to approximately 4 years]: PFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first documented progressive disease (PD) per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 by blinded independent central review (BICR) or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. Per RECIST 1.1, PD is defined as ≥20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also have demonstrated an absolute increase of ≥5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered PD.
  • Overall Survival (OS) [Up to approximately 5.5 years]: OS is defined as the time from randomization to death due to any cause.

Secondary outcomes

  • Progression-Free Survival 2 (PFS2) [Up to approximately 5.5 years]: PFS2 as assessed by investigator is defined from time from randomization to the documented subsequent objective disease progression after initiation of new anticancer therapy, or death from any cause, whichever occurs first
  • Change From Baseline in Global Health Status/Quality of Life (GHS/QoL) Score (Item 30) Using the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer QoL Questionnaire-Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) [Baseline and up to approximately 4 years]: The EORTC QLQ-C30 is a questionnaire to assess the overall quality of life of cancer patients. Participant responses to the questions "How would you rate your overall health during the past week?" and "How would you rate your overall quality of life during the past week?" are scored on a 7-point scale (1= Very poor to 7=Excellent). Using linear transformation, raw scores are standardized, so that scores range from 0 to 100. A higher score indicates a better overall health status. The change from baseline in EORTC QLQ-C30 score will be presented.
  • Change From Baseline in Abdominal/Gastrointestinal (GI) Symptoms Combined Score Using the EORTC QLQ-Ovarian Cancer Module 28 (OV28) [Baseline and up to approximately 4 years]: EORTC QLQ-OV28 is an OC-specific module to supplement the EORTC QLQ-C30. Participant responses to the 6 abdominal/GI symptoms scale questions are scored on a 4-point scale (1=not at all, 4=very much). The combined score is computed by averaging the raw scores of the 6 items and then applying a linear transformation to standardize the average score, so that the combined score ranges from 0 to 100. The change from baseline in abdominal and gastrointestinal symptoms (EORTC QLQ-OC28 Items 31-36) score will be presented. A lower score indicates a better outcome.
  • Number of Participants who Experience an Adverse Event (AE) [Up to approximately 4 years]: An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. The number of participants who experience an AE will be reported.
  • Number of Participants who Discontinue Study Treatment due to an AE [Up to approximately 4 years]: An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant, temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. The number of participants who discontinue study treatment due to an AE will be reported.
