Study of NMS-03305293 in Adult Patients With Relapsed Ovarian Cancer

What this study is about

This is a conducted at multiple hospitals, where both patients and doctors know the treatment given Phase Ia/b study on the safety and effectiveness of the combination of NMS-03305293 and topotecan in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer, with dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) escalation.

View original scientific description

This is a multicenter, open-label Phase Ia/b study on the safety and efficacy of the combination of NMS-03305293 and topotecan in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer, with dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) escalation. The aim of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability, as well as to evaluate the anti-tumor efficacy and pharmacokinetics of NMS-03305293 in combination with topotecan.

Who can participate

This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.

Inclusion criteria

  • Histologically confirmed diagnosis of high-grade serous epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or peritoneal cancer. Sponsor might opt to restrict enrollment to either platinum refractory, primary or secondary platinum-resistant patients based on data emerging from the trial.
  • Patients must have received no more than 5 prior lines of therapy and failed all evidence based local standards of care as per Investigator judgment. Sponsor might opt to restrict prior lines of therapy to 3 in any moments, based on data emerging from the trial.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤ 2.
  • Patient must have progressed radiographically on or after their most recent line of anticancer therapy and have measurable disease as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 (radiologically measured by the Investigator).
  • Resolution of all acute toxic effects (excluding alopecia) of any prior anticancer therapy to National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) (version 5.0) Grade ≤ 1 or to the baseline laboratory values as defined in the protocol
  • Patients with childbearing potential must use highly effective contraception or true abstinence.

Exclusion criteria

  • Current enrollment in another interventional clinical trial.
  • Current treatment with other anticancer agents or devices.
  • BReast CAncer gene (BRCA) mutation.
  • Prior therapy with PARP inhibitor, outside of approved indication and schedules. Sponsor might opt to restrict prior use of PARP inhibitor (PARPi) in any moments, based on data emerging from the trial.
  • Prior therapy with topoisomerase inhibitors including payloads of Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADCs). Sponsor has the option to allow prior ADC, if not last line of treatment, prior to enrollment.
  • Major surgery, other than surgery for recurrent Ovarian Cancer (OC), within 4 weeks prior to treatment start.
  • Patients with low-grade/borderline ovarian tumor.
  • Prior anti-tumor treatment within 2 weeks prior to treatment start or 5 half-lives, whichever is shorter.
  • Patients with prior wide-field radiotherapy (RT) affecting at least 20 percent of the bone marrow.
  • Use of full-dose anticoagulants unless the INR or activated thromboplastin time (aPTT) is within therapeutic limits (according to the medical standard in the institution) and the patient has been on a stable dose of anticoagulants for at least 2 weeks before enrollment.
  • Treatment with concomitant medications known to be sensitive substrates of CYP2D6 and CYP2C19 that cannot be replaced with another treatment.
  • History of interstitial lung disease or relevant lung disease in the opinion of the Investigator.
  • Treatment with systemic immune modulators such as corticosteroids at prednisone equivalent dose of \> 10 mg/day, cyclosporine and tacrolimus or radiotherapy within 28 days before Cycle 1 Day 1.
  • Pregnant women. All female patients with reproductive potential must have a negative pregnancy test (serum or urine) within the screening period prior to start of study drug.
  • Breast-feeding women or women planning to breast feed during the study or within 3 months after study treatment.
  • Known hypersensitivity to any component of NMS-03305293 or topotecan drug formulations.
  • Known active, life-threatening or clinically significant uncontrolled systemic infection (bacterial, fungal, viral including Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) positivity or Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) or Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infections) requiring systemic treatment; HIV or AIDS-related illness are allowed as long as controlled more than 6 months to undetectable on anti-HIV medications.
  • Patients with QTc interval ≥ 450 milliseconds or with risk factors for torsade de pointes (e.g., uncontrolled heart failure, uncontrolled hypokalemia, history of prolonged QTc interval or family history of long QT syndrome). For patients receiving treatment with concomitant medications known to prolong the QTc interval, replacement with another treatment prior to enrollment is mandatory. If concomitant use of anti-emetics is considered essential for the care of the patients, follow instruction in this protocol.
  • Known active gastrointestinal disease (e.g., documented gastrointestinal ulcer, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or short gut syndrome) or other malabsorption syndromes or structural issues or ulcer that would impact on drug absorption.
  • Any of the following in the previous 6 months: myocardial infarction, unstable angina, coronary/peripheral artery bypass graft, symptomatic congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular accident or transient ischemic attack, pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, active bleeding disorder and interstitial lung disease.
  • History of long QT disorder or familial sudden death syndromes or related syndromes in the opinion of the Investigator.
  • Currently active second malignancy, except for adequately treated basal or squamous cell skin cancer and/or cone biopsied or post curative intention in situ carcinoma of the cervix uteri and/or superficial bladder cancer.
  • Symptomatic, or untreated Central Nervous System (CNS) lesions except stable and well-controlled with no neurological symptoms; patients receiving corticosteroids to control neurological symptoms should be on stable doses for at least 14 days before study entry.
  • Other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or study drug administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the Investigator, would make the patient inappropriate for entry into this study or could compromise protocol objectives in the opinion of the Investigator and/or the Sponsor. NOTE: Other protocol defined inclusion and exclusion criteria may apply.

Frequently asked questions

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.

Is it safe to participate?

Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.

Will I be compensated?

Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.

Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?

When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.

Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?

Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.

How long does a clinical trial last?

Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
