---|---|
Experimental: Open Label
On Day 1 of every 3-week cycle (Q3W) for 6 cycles, MIRV will be given at the dosage of 6 mg/kg of adjusted ideal body weight (AIBW) along with carboplatin given at area under the concentration curve (AUC) 5 administered through intravenous (IV) infusion (maximum dosing per National Comprehensive Cancer Network [NCCN] guidelines [NCCN 2021]). Upon completion of carboplatin plus MIRV treatment, single-agent MIRV will be continued at the tolerated dose on Day 1 Q3W in patients with investigator determined stable disease, PR, or CR.

Drug: Mirvetuximab soravtansine
Mirvetuximab Soravtansine (MIRV) is an investigational antibody drug conjugate designed to selectively kill cancer cells. The antibody (protein) part of MIRV targets tumors by delivering a cell-killing drug to the tumor cells carrying a tumor-associated protein called folate receptor alpha (FRα). It is being developed for the treatment of subjects with recurrent platinum-sensitive, high grade epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancers with FRα expression. FRα positivity will be defined by the Ventana FOLR1 Assay.

Drug: Carboplatin Carboplatin is considered to be the treatment agent of choice in relapsed PSOC. |
