Brief Summary:
This phase II/III trial tests whether adding trastuzumab and hyaluronidase-oysk (Herceptin HylectaTM) or pertuzumab, trastuzumab and hyaluronidase-zzxf (PhesgoTM) to the usual chemotherapy (paclitaxel and carboplatin) works to shrink tumors in patients with HER2 positive endometrial serous carcinoma or carcinosarcoma. Trastuzumab and pertuzumab are monoclonal antibodies and forms of targeted therapy that attach to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of tumor cells, known as HER2 receptors. When trastuzumab or pertuzumab attach to HER2 receptors, the signals that tell the cells to grow are blocked and the tumor cell may be marked for destruction by the body's immune system. Hyaluronidase is an endoglycosidase. It helps to keep pertuzumab and trastuzumab in the body longer, so that these medications will have a greater effect. Hyaluronidase also allows trastuzumab and trastuzumab/pertuzumab to be given by injection under the skin and shortens their administration time compared to trastuzumab or pertuzumab alone. Paclitaxel is a taxane and in a class of medications called antimicrotubule agents. It stops cancer cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works in a way similar to the anticancer drug cisplatin, but may be better tolerated than cisplatin. Carboplatin works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Giving Herceptin Hylecta or Phesgo in combination with paclitaxel and carboplatin may shrink the tumor and prevent the cancer from coming back in patients with HER2 positive endometrial serous carcinoma or carcinosarcoma.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Progression free survival (Phase II) [ Time Frame: From study entry to time of progression or death, whichever occurs first, or date of last contact if neither progression nor death has occurred, assessed up to 5 years from randomization ]
    At the end of Phase 2 analysis, if both experimental arms demonstrate superiority to the reference, the experimental arms will be compared to each other.

  2. Incidence of dose limiting toxicities (Phase II) [ Time Frame: Up to end of cycle 3 (week 12) ]
    A dose limiting toxicity is any treatment-related adverse event requiring permanent discontinuation of the experimental therapy prior to the completion of treatment cycle 3.

  3. Overall survival (Phase III) [ Time Frame: From study entry to time of death or the date of last contact, assessed up to 5 years from randomization ]
    If both experimental arms demonstrate superiority to the reference arm, the experimental arms will be compared to each other.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Objective response rate (ORR) [ Time Frame: Within 12 months of initiating maintenance therapy ]
    Defined as the binomial proportion of evaluable patients with a best overall response of complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) (by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors [RECIST] 1.1) within 12 months of initiating maintenance therapy. Responses reported by the treating physician will be used for these analyses. The ORR estimates by treatment arm will be supported by their 2-sided, 95% Wilson-Score confidence intervals (Wilson, 1927; Agresti, 1998). The relative odds of response in each experimental group (vs the reference group) will be estimated using a multivariable logistic regression model specified with main effects for the treatment groups and covariate adjustments for the stratification factors reported at baseline.

  2. Duration of objective response [ Time Frame: From documentation of either PR or CR until disease progression or death, whichever is observed first, assessed up to 5 years from randomization ]
    Treatment group differences in response duration will be graphed using Kaplan-Meier methods and compared using logrank tests, stratified by the minimization factors defined at randomization. The relative hazards of progression or death in each experimental group (vs the reference group) will be estimated using a multivariable proportional hazards regression model specified with main effects for the treatment indicators and covariate adjustments for the stratification factors reported at baseline.

  3. Incidence of adverse events (AEs) [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years from randomization ]
    The nature, frequency, and degree of toxicity will be tabulated at the System Organ Class and AE-specific term levels using Common Terminology Criteria (CTCAE) version 5.0. Each patient will be represented according to the maximum grade observed for each term. Tabulations will show the number and percentage of patients by maximum grade, within the treatment group received, regardless of the randomized treatment assignment.

  4. HER2 expression [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years from randomization ]
    Correlation of HER2 immunohistochemistry (IHC) expression and in situ hybridization (ISH) amplification with clinical outcome and response to HER2 targeted therapies will be explored.

  5. Quality of life [ Time Frame: Up to 5 years from randomization ]
    Measured by Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Endometrial Trial Outcome Index (FACT-En-TOI).

  • Histologic confirmation of the original primary tumor is required. Submission of surgical pathology report (or endometrial biopsy pathology report in patients who never undergo hysterectomy) is required
  • Patients must be within 8 weeks of primary surgery (or endometrial biopsy in patients who never undergo hysterectomy) at the time of study registration
  • Patients may have measurable disease, non-measurable disease, or no measurable disease. In patients with measurable disease, lesions will be defined and monitored by RECIST v 1.1. 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 computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Lymph nodes must be >= 15 mm in short axis when measured by CT or MRI
  • For patients with uterine-confined (stage I) disease, the tumor must be invasive into the myometrium. Any amount of myoinvasion is acceptable for eligibility. Patients with non-invasive disease, endometrial intraepithelial carcinoma alone, or disease confined to a polyp will be excluded
  • Additionally, patients must have the following histologic types to be eligible:

    • Serous adenocarcinoma (may include =< 10% non-serous histology)
    • Carcinosarcoma with serous epithelial component (only the serous component needs to be HER2 positive; may include =< 10% non-serous histology)
    • In cases where determination of serous is equivocal or challenging, aberrant p53 immunohistochemistry (IHC) (defined as overexpression of p53 compared to internal controls) will be sufficient for inclusion
  • All patients must have tumors that are HER2 positive as defined by American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO)/College of American Pathologists (CAP) 2018 Breast Cancer guidelines (https://documents.cap.org/documents/algorithim-evaluation-her2.pdf. In general HER2 positivity is defined as any of the following:

    • 3+ immunohistochemistry (IHC),
    • 2+ IHC with positive in situ hybridization (ISH)
    • Average HER2 copy number >= 6.0 signals/cell
    • Average HER2 copy number >= 4.0 and < 6.0 signals/cell, with concurrent IHC 3+
    • HER2/CEP17 ratio >= 4.0 signals/cell
    • HER2/CEP 17 ratio >= 2.0 and < 4.0, with concurrent IHC 3+ IHC and ISH testing will be done locally, at each participating institution and interpreted by local pathologists. Alternatively, patients could be eligible if next generation sequencing (NGS) demonstrates HER2 (ERBB2) amplification. NGS testing can be performed through any designated labs as per the National Cancer Institute (NCI) MATCH/NCI Combo-MATCH trial (https://ecog-acrin.org/nci-match-eay131-designated-labs).
