Brief Summary:
This phase II trial tests how well darolutamide in combination with leuprolide acetate and exemestane works in treating patients with ovarian granulosa cell tumors that have come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Darolutamide is in a class of medications called androgen receptor inhibitors. It works by blocking the effects of androgen (a male reproductive hormone) to stop the growth and spread of tumor cells. Leuprolide acetate is in a class of medications called gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists. It works by decreasing the amount of certain hormones in the body. Exemestane is in a class of medications called aromatase inhibitors which has anti-estrogen and anticancer activities. Exemestane binds to and inhibits the enzyme aromatase, thereby blocking the conversion of androgens to estrogens. This lowers estrogen levels in the blood circulation causing the tumor cells to grow more slowly or stop growing completely. The combination of darolutamide, leuprolide acetate, and exemestane may be an effective approach to shrinking or stabilizing recurrent ovarian granulosa cell tumors or preventing them from coming back.

Detailed Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To determine the objective response rate of darolutamide, leuprolide acetate, and exemestane in recurrent adult-type granulosa cell tumors of the ovary (AGCT).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine duration of response of darolutamide, leuprolide acetate, and exemestane in recurrent adult-type granulosa cell tumors of the ovary (AGCT).

II. To determine progression-free survival of darolutamide, leuprolide acetate, and exemestane when used in recurrent adult-type granulosa cell tumors of ovary (AGCT).

III. To determine overall survival of darolutamide, leuprolide acetate, and exemestane when used in recurrent adult-type granulosa cell tumors of ovary (AGCT).

IV. To elucidate the toxicities of darolutamide, leuprolide acetate, and exemestane when used in recurrent adult-type granulosa cell tumors of ovary (AGCT).

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:

I. To determine biomarkers predictive of response to darolutamide, leuprolide acetate, and exemestane.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive exemestane orally (PO) once daily (QD) and darolutamide PO twice daily (BID) starting on days -14 to -7 prior to cycle 1, day 1 (C1D1) and then on days 1-28 of each cycle. Patients receive leuprolide acetate intramuscularly (IM) on day 1 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo chest computed tomography (CT) or chest x-ray and CT, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or positron emission tomography (PET)/CT as well as blood sample collection throughout the study. Patients undergo collection of archived tissue during screening.

Upon completion of study treatment, patients are followed up every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months for 3 years.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Objective response rate [ Time Frame: Within 9 months of initiating study treatment ]
    Defined as a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 criteria. Exact 95% confidence limits, accounting for interim analysis, will be provided in the final report.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Duration of response [ Time Frame: From the time measurement criteria are met for CR or PR (whichever is first recorded) until the first date that recurrent or progressive disease is objectively documented, assessed up to 5 years ]
    Median duration of response with a corresponding 95% confidence interval will be estimated. The duration of overall CR is measured from the time measurement criteria are first met for CR until the first date that progressive disease is objectively documented. Stable disease is measured from the start of the treatment until the criteria for progression are met, taking as reference the smallest measurements recorded since date of study entry, including the baseline measurements.

  2. Progression-free survival (PFS) [ Time Frame: From study entry to time of progression or death, whichever occurs first, or date of last contact with known progression free status if neither progression nor death has occurred, assessed up to 5 years ]
    Will be graphed using Kaplan-Meier methods. Median PFS will be estimated with corresponding 95% confidence intervals.

  3. Overall survival (OS) [ Time Frame: From study entry to time of death or the date of last contact, assessed up to 5 years ]
    Will be graphed using Kaplan-Meier methods. Median OS will be estimated with corresponding 95% confidence intervals.

  4. Incidence of adverse events [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]
    Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5 will be used to grade and categorize adverse events. Safety will be assessed beginning with the initial dose of any treatment. Descriptive statistics, including frequencies of maximum grade of adverse events by term and category will be reported. Adverse events categorized as grade 5 will be individually reported.


Other Outcome Measures:
  1. Biomarkers predictive of response [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years ]
    Local estrogen receptor and progesterone receptor immunohistochemistry results will be examined as possible predictive biomarkers of response to darolutamide, leuprolide acetate, and exemestane.

In addition:

  • The effects of the combination of darolutamide, leuprolide acetate, and exemestane on the developing human fetus are unknown. For this reason, and because androgen receptor inhibitor agents as well as other therapeutic agents used in this trial are known to be teratogenic, participants of child-bearing potential must agree to use adequate contraception (hormonal or barrier method of birth control; abstinence) during study therapy and for 1 month following the completion of study therapy. Should a participant become pregnant or suspect pregnancy while participating in this study, they should inform their treating physician immediately

Measurable disease is defined as at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded). Each lesion must be ≥ 10 mm when measured by CT or MRI. Lymph nodes must be ≥ 15 mm in short axis when measured by CT or MRI
    • Patient must have had ≥1 treatment regimen
    • Subject must have progressed on an aromatase inhibitor (letrozole, exemestane, anastrozole) in a prior treatment line
    • Age ≥ 18 years

    • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 1.5 x institutional ULN
    • Patients with known history or current symptoms of cardiac disease, or history of treatment with cardiotoxic agents, should have a clinical risk assessment of cardiac function using the New York Heart Association Functional Classification. To be eligible for this trial, patients should be class 2B or better
