Purpose This study compared the efficacy and safety of patupilone with those of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) in patients with platinum-refractory or -resistant epithelial ovarian, primary fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. Patients and Methods Patients with three or fewer prior regimens were eligible if they had received first-line taxane/platinum-based combination chemotherapy and were platinum refractory or resistant. Patients were randomly assigned to receive patupilone (10 mg/m2 intravenously every 3 weeks) or PLD (50 mg/m2 intravenously every 4 weeks). Results A total of 829 patients were randomly assigned (patupilone, n = 412; PLD, n = 417). There was no statistically significant difference in overall survival (OS), the primary end point, between the patupilone and PLD arms (P = .195; hazard ratio, 0.93; 95% CI, 0.79 to 1.09), with median OS rates of 13.2 and 12.7 months, respectively. Median progression-free survival was 3.7 months for both arms. The overall response rate (all partial responses) was higher in the patupilone arm than in the PLD arm (15.5% v 7.9%; odds ratio, 2.11; 95% CI, 1.36 to 3.29), although disease control rates were similar (59.5% v 56.3%, respectively). Frequently observed adverse events (AEs) of any grade included diarrhea (85.3%) and peripheral neuropathy (39.3%) in the patupilone arm and mucositis/stomatitis (43%) and hand-foot syndrome (41.8%) in the PLD arm. Conclusion Patupilone did not demonstrate significant improvement in OS compared with the active control, PLD. No new or unexpected serious AEs were identified.

TPS6103 Background: Elevated FRα expression is a characteristic of several solid tumors, including epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), thereby providing an attractive candidate for targeted therapeutic approaches. Mirvetuximab soravtansine is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) comprising a FRα-binding antibody, cleavable linker, and the maytansinoid DM4, a potent tubulin-targeting agent that has shown consistent and meaningful single agent clinical activity, along with favorable tolerability, in patients with high FRα expressing tumors. Methods: MIRASOL is a randomized phase III study designed to evaluate the efficacy of mirvetuximab soravtansine compared with that of standard-of-care chemotherapy in adult patients with platinum-resistant EOC, primary peritoneal cancer, or fallopian tube cancer. Confirmation of high FRα positivity by immunohistochemistry (high expression; ≥ 75% of cells with PS2+ staining intensity) and ≤ 3 prior lines of therapy are required for inclusion. MIRASOL is designed to randomize 430 patients, 1:1 to Arm 1 (intravenous mirvetuximab soravtansine at a dose of 6 mg/kg, calculated using adjusted ideal body weight, on Day 1 of a 21-day cycle) or Arm 2 (investigators’ choice chemotherapy: paclitaxel, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin, or topotecan). The primary efficacy endpoint is progression-free survival (PFS; by investigator) and secondary endpoints include objective response rate, quality of life, overall survival, and safety and tolerability. MIRASOL opened for enrollment in December 2019. Clinical trial information: NCT04209855.
