BackgroundImprovement in clinical outcomes of patients with platinum-resistant disease is an unmet medical need and trials in this population are urgently needed. Checkpoint-inhibitors have already shown activity in multiple other tumor entities and ovarian cancer, especially in the combination with anti-angiogenic treatment.Primary objectiveTo test if the activity of non-platinum-based chemotherapy and bevacizumab could be improved by the addition of atezolizumab.Study hypothesisThe addition of atezolizumab to standard non-platinum combination of chemotherapy and bevacizumab improves median overall survival from 15 to 20 months.Trial designPatients are randomized to chemotherapy (paclitaxel weekly or pegylated liposomal doxorubicin) + bevacizumab + placebo vs chemotherapy + bevacizumab + atezolizumab. Stratification factors are: number of prior lines, planned type of chemotherapy, prior use of bevacizumab, and tumor programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) status.Major inclusion/exclusion criteriaRecurrent epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer with up to three prior therapies and a treatment-free interval after platinum of less than 6 months. Patients with three prior lines of chemotherapy are eligible irrespective of the platinum free-interval. A de novo tumor tissue sample biopsy for determination of PD-L1 status prior to randomization for stratification is mandatory. Major exclusion criteria consider bevacizumab-specific and immunotherapy-specific criteria.Primary endpointOverall survival and progression-free survival are co-primary endpoints.Sample sizeIt is planned to randomize 664 patients.Trial registrationNCT03353831.

TPS5601 Background: A standard non-platinum based treatment option in patients with relapsed ovarian cancer is bevacizumab in combination with paclitaxel or pegylated liposomal doxorubicin, but responses are still short-lived. Checkpoint-inhibitors as single agent have limited activity in ovarian cancer. However, the role of the checkpoint-inhibitor like atezolizumab, in addition to chemotherapy and bevacizumab in ovarian cancer is so far undefined. Methods: AGO-OVAR 2.29 is a randomized (1:1), double blinded, phase III trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of atezolizumab plus bevacizumab and chemotherapy (weekly paclitaxel or pegylated liposomal doxorubicin) compared with placebo plus bevacizumab and chemotherapy in patients with recurrent ovarian-, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer with 1st or 2nd relapse within 6 months after platinum-based chemotherapy or 3rd relapse. A tumor biopsy available at study entry for PD-L1 testing is mandatory. Patients are treated with chemotherapy plus bevacizumab +/- atezolizumab/placebo until progression or prohibitive toxicity. Co-primary endpoints are overall survival and progression-free survival. It is planned to randomize 664 patients. A safety interim analysis will be done when 24 patients have been randomized and completed at least cycle 1. As of 1st February 2019, 24 patients have been randomized. Clinical trial information: NCT03353831.

BackgroundPrimary cytoreductive surgery followed by chemotherapy has been considered standard management for patients with advanced ovarian cancer over decades. An alternative approach of interval debulking surgery following neoadjuvant chemotherapy was subsequently reported by two randomized phase III trials (EORTC‐GCG, CHORUS), which were criticized owing to important limitations, especially regarding the rate of complete resection.Primary ObjectiveTo clarify the optimal timing of surgical therapy in advanced ovarian cancer.Study HypothesisPrimary cytoreductive surgery is superior to interval cytoreductive surgery following neoadjuvant chemotherapy for overall survival in patients with advanced ovarian cancer.Trial DesignTRUST is an international open, randomized, controlled multi-center trial investigating overall survival after primary cytoreductive surgery versus neoadjuvant chemotherapy and subsequent interval cytoreductive surgery in patients with FIGO stage IIIB–IVB ovarian, tubal, and peritoneal carcinoma. To guarantee adequate surgical quality, participating centers need to fulfill specific quality assurance criteria (eg, ≥50% complete resection rate in upfront surgery for FIGO IIIB–IVB patients, ≥36 debulking-surgeries/year) and agree to independent audits by TRUST quality committee delegates. Patients in the primary cytoreductive surgery arm undergo surgery followed by 6 cycles of platinum-based chemotherapy, whereas patients in the interval cytoreductive surgery arm undergo 3 cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy after histologic confirmation of the disease, followed by interval cytoreductive surgery and subsequently, 3 cycles of platinum-based chemotherapy. The intention of surgery for both groups is complete tumor resection according to guideline recommendations.Major Inclusion/Exclusion CriteriaMajor inclusion criteria are suspected or histologically confirmed, newly diagnosed invasive epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian tube carcinoma, or primary peritoneal carcinoma FIGO stage IIIB–IVB (IV only if resectable metastasis). Major exclusion criteria are non-epithelial ovarian malignancies and borderline tumors; prior chemotherapy for ovarian cancer; or abdominal/pelvic radiotherapy.Primary EndpointOverall survival.Sample Size772 patients.Estimated Dates for Completing Accrual and Presenting ResultsAccrual completion approximately mid-2019, results are expected after 5 years' follow-up in 2024.Trial RegistrationNCT02828618.

5551 Background: There is a continuing debate over the role of combination, platinum-based chemotherapy for PS, recurrent ovarian cancer (OC). Although this phase 3 trial was closed prematurely by the SWOG Data Safety and Monitoring Committee (DSMC) due to slow patient accrual, it provided provocative results nonetheless. Methods: Patients with recurrent stage III or IV OC, with a progression-free and platinum-free interval of 6- 24 months after completion of first-line platinum-based chemotherapy, and up to 12 courses of non-platinum containing chemotherapy or biologic therapy as consolidation treatment after the first-line regimen were eligible and observed for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Patients were randomized to either IV PLD (30 mg/m2) plus IV carboplatin (AUC=5 mg/mL × min) once every 4 weeks (PLD arm) or IV carboplatin (AUC=5mg/ML × min) once every four weeks alone. Results: The PLD arm enrolled 31 patients and the carboplatin alone arm enrolled 30 for a total of 61 patients out of the 900 planned. The response rates were 67% (18/27) for the PLD arm and 32% (9/28) for the carboplatin only arm (Fisher’s exact p=0.02). The estimated median PFS on the PLD arm was 12 months and 8 months on the carboplatin only arm. The estimated median OS on the PLD arm was 26 months and 18 months on the carboplatin only arm (p=0.02). 26% of the patients on the PLD arm reported grade 4 toxicities, all hematological in nature. Conclusions: Although this study was closed early, because of slow patient accrual the results for the PLD arm are intriguing for response rates, median progression-free survival and overall survival. These data suggest that there may be an advantage to the PLD plus carboplatin combination treatment in patients with PS, recurrent disease. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

TPS5613 Background: Folate receptor (FR) is expressed on the majority of epithelial ovarian cancers and FR expression appears to be a negative prognostic factor in this setting. Vintafolide (EC145) is a folate-conjugate designed to selectively deliver desacetylvinblastine monohydrazide (DAVLBH) to FR-expressing cells. 99mTc-Etarfolatide (EC20) is a technetium-labeled folate that identifies FR-expressing tumors. In a phase 2 study comparing vintafolide + PLD with PLD alone, the combination demonstrated a statistically and clinically significant delay in PFS (5.0 months) compared with PLD alone (2.7 months) in women with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer (Naumann et al, ASCO 2011). Data also indicated that 99mTc-etarfolatide may have utility for selecting patients most likely to benefit from vintafolide therapy. Methods: This is an international, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 study of PLD ± vintafolide therapy compared in patients with primary or secondary platinum-resistant ovarian cancer (NCT01170650). Key eligibility criteria include: ≥18 years, pathology-confirmed epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal carcinoma, prior platinum-based chemotherapy, a RECIST v1.1 measureable lesion, and ECOG performance status 0 or 1. At baseline, patients undergo 99mTc-Etarfolatide imaging to identify FR-positive lesions and are subsequently randomized to the vintafolide ± PLD. PLD (50 mg/m2) adjusted for Ideal Body weight is administered on day 1 of a 4-week cycle and treatment continues until the maximum allowable cumulative dose (550 mg/m2) is reached or until disease progression or intolerable toxicity. Vintafolide (2.5 mg) or placebo is administered on days 1, 3, 5, 15, 17, and 19 of a 4-week cycle and treatment can continue for up to 20 cycles or until unacceptable toxicity or disease progression. The primary objective is to assess PFS based on investigator assessment (RECIST v1.1) in FR positive patients. Secondary objectives include OS, safety/tolerability, overall response rate, and disease control rate. Enrollment to the study is currently ongoing. Clinical trial information: NCT01170650.

IntroductionThe role of cytoreductive surgery in the poly-ADP ribose polymerase inhibitors era is not fully investigated. We evaluated the impact of surgery performed prior to platinum-based chemotherapy followed by olaparib maintenance in platinum-sensitive BRCA-mutated recurrent ovarian cancer.MethodsThis retrospective study included platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian cancer BRCA-mutated patients from 13 Multicenter Italian Trials in Ovarian cancer and gynecological malignancies centers treated between September 2015 and May 2019. The primary outcomes were progression-free survival and overall survival. Data on post-progression treatment was also assessed.ResultsAmong 209 patients, 72 patients (34.5%) underwent cytoreductive surgery followed by platinum-based chemotherapy and olaparib maintenance, while 137 patients (65.5%) underwent chemotherapy treatment alone. After a median follow-up of 37.3 months (95% CI: 33.4 to 40.8), median progression-free survival in the surgery group was not reached, compared with 11 months in patients receiving chemotherapy alone (P<0.001). Median overall survival was nearly double in patients undergoing surgery before chemotherapy (55 vs 28 months, P<0.001). Post-progression therapy was assessed in 127 patients: response rate to chemotherapy was 29.2%, 8.8%, and 9.0% in patients with platinum-free interval >12 months, between 6 and 12 months, and <6 months, respectively.ConclusionCytoreductive surgery performed before platinum therapy and olaparib maintenance was associated with longer progression-free survival and overall survival in BRCA-mutated platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer patients. In accordance with our preliminary results, the response rate to chemotherapy given after progression during olaparib was associated with platinum-free interval.
