Brief Summary:
Efficacy of PankoMab-GEX vs Placebo in maintaining a response to chemotherapy in advanced ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Ovarian Epithelial Cancer Recurrent Fallopian Tube Cancer Primary Peritoneal Cancer Drug: PankoMab-GEX Drug: Placebo Phase 2

Detailed Description:
The study is to evaluate the efficacy of PankoMab-GEX vs Placebo in maintaining response after 2nd to 5th line of chemotherapy in patients with epithelial ovarian or fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer. Patients must have responded to platinum based chemotherapy in a previous line, while the response to the most recent Pt-based chemotherapy must not have lasted more than 12 months. In addition the response between most recent 2 lines of chemotherapy prior start of study medication must not have lasted more than 12 months.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: PankoMab-GEX
1700mg, i.v., q3w
Drug: PankoMab-GEX
start dose 500mg at C0D1, maintenance dose 1700mg at CxD1, Number of Cycles: until progression or unacceptable toxicity develops.
Other Name: Gatipotuzumab

Placebo Comparator: Placebo
matching placebo
Drug: Placebo
start dose matching 500mg at C0D1, maintenance dose matching 1700mg at CxD1, Number of Cycles: until progression or unacceptable toxicity develops.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Progression free survival [ Time Frame: from baseline till progression of disease or death ]
    PFS will be determined by radiographic progression based on modified RECIST 1.1 or death of any cause.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. To assess the safety and tolerability of maintenance therapy with single-agent PankoMab-GEX™ compared to placebo in patients with metastatic or recurrent ovarian or fallopian tube carcinoma or primary peritoneal carcinoma. [ Time Frame: from randomization until end of treatment ]
    Safety will be determined on the occurrence of infusion-related reactions (IRR), treatment emergent adverse events (TEAE) and treatment emergent serious adverse events (TESAE).

  2. Patient reported outcome [ Time Frame: from randomization until end of treatment ]
    To evaluate the quality of life (QoL) and other health and health-economy related outcomes

Ages Eligible for Study:   18 Years and older   (Adult, Older Adult)
Sexes Eligible for Study:   Female
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Female patients ≥18 years of age
  2. Histologically-confirmed, TA-MUC1-positive, recurrent epithelial ovarian, or fallopian-tube cancer or primary peritoneal cancer with high-grade (Grade 2 or 3) serous features or a serous component
  3. Availability of tumor tissue samples (slices or block) for immune-histological confirmation of TA-MUC1 status (tissue samples could also be stored for other further specified biomarker assessments)
  4. Patients were to have received at least 2 lines but not more than 5 lines of chemotherapy prior to start of maintenance treatment; neo-adjuvant lines did not count as previous lines of treatment
  5. Patients had to have a documented response to or SD following the most recent line of chemotherapy (any regimen and duration in accordance with local or international guidelines or within IEC-approved studies) and received the last dose of said chemotherapy ≤6 weeks prior to randomization (response to prior chemotherapy was defined as a PR/CR according to radiological response criteria and/or a confirmed decline in tumor marker CA125 ≥50% from the pre-treatment value for patients who had a pre-treatment value ≥2 x the upper limit of normal [ULN]; SD was defined as stable disease according to radiological response criteria with a confirmed lack of increase in tumor marker CA125 from the pre-treatment value for patients who had a pre-treatment value ≥2 × ULN and no clinical progression). Prior to randomization, CA125 had to be below the ULN, or CA125 levels were not to increase >15% within a time frame >7 days if above the ULN
  6. Progression-free interval of ≤12 months immediately preceding the chemotherapy to which the patient had just responded
  7. Sensitive or resistant to the most recent platinum-based chemotherapy preceding the chemotherapy to which the patient had just responded (sensitivity was thereby defined as a recurrence of disease >6 to ≤12 months after the end of platinum-based chemotherapy, and resistantance was defined as a recurrence of disease ≤6 months after the end of the platinum-based chemotherapy)
  8. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status ≤1
  9. Recovered from all chemotherapy-related toxicities to Grade 1 or Grade 0 according to the NCI-CTCAE Version 4.0, with the exception of alopecia (any grade) and peripheral neuropathy (≤Grade 2)
  10. Adequate bone marrow and hepatic function at Screening:

    • Hemoglobin ≥9 g/dL
    • White blood cell count ≥3.0 × 109/L
    • Absolute neutrophil count ≥1.5 × 109/L- Platelet count ≥100 × 109/L
    • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) <3 × ULN (<5 × ULN in case of liver metastases)
    • Bilirubin <1.5 × ULN (<3 × ULN in case of liver metastases)
    • Creatinine <1.5 × ULN
  11. Any patient with childbearing potential (i.e. not surgically sterile or post-menopausal for >1 year) had to use highly effective contraceptives with a Pearl index <1% according to the "Note for guidance on non-clinical safety studies for the conduct of human clinical trials and marketing authorization for pharmaceuticals" (CPMP/ICH/286/95) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA). (Although pregnancy was unlikely to occur in this patient population, any patient with childbearing potential had to be withdrawn from the study in the event of pregnancy)
  12. Life expectancy >3 months
  13. Ability and willingness to give written informed consent

Exclusion criteria:

  1. Refractory to platinum-based chemotherapy (defined as remained progressive or became progressive under any previous platinum-based regimen)
  2. Progression-free interval of >12 months after the most recent antecedent platinum-based chemotherapy regimen

  11. Primary or secondary immune deficiency
  12. Clinically active infections >Grade 2 using NCI-CTCAE version 4.0

  16. Prior or planned major surgery within 30 days prior to randomization and/or incomplete recovery from prior surgery
  17. Concomitant use of systemic steroids, except for inhaled, topical or nasal application within 30 days prior to randomization (steroids used for pre-medication were permitted)
  18. Active drug or alcohol abuse
  19. Any uncontrolled medical condition that could have put the patient at high risk during treatment with an investigational drug, including unstable diabetes mellitus, vena cava syndrome, or chronic symptomatic respiratory disease
  20. Pregnancy or lactation
