Brief Summary:
Phase 1 safety study of the antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) XMT-1536 (upifitamab rilsodotin) administered as an intravenous infusion once every four weeks in combination with Carboplatin in participants with high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC, including fallopian tube and primary peritoneal cancer). The trial consists of dose escalation (DES) and expansion (EXP) portion. In addition to safety assessments, the pharmacokinetics of the drug will be assessed along with ADC activity.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Platinum-sensitive Ovarian Cancer (UPGRADE-A) Drug: XMT-1536 (Upifitamab Rilsodotin) Drug: Carboplatin Phase 1

Detailed Description:
This trial is an open-label, multi-center Phase 1 study of upifitamab rilsodotin administered as an intravenous infusion once every 28 days in combination with Carboplatinin patients with high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC, including fallopian tube and primary peritoneal cancer). The trial consists of dose escalation (DES) and expansion (EXP) portion. The primary objective of the dose escalation (DES) portion is to establish the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for upifitamab rilsodotin in combination with Carboplatin. In the EXP portion of the trial, participants will initiate treatment at the MTD or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) determined in the DES for the combination.

  • Participant has received prior treatment with mirvetuximab soravtansine or another ADC containing an auristatin or maytansinoid payload.
  • Participant has untreated CNS metastases (including new and progressive brain metastases), history of leptomeningeal metastasis, or carcinomatous meningitis.
