Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a randomized, adaptive, open label, multicenter trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intraperitoneal (IP) IMNN-001 plus chemotherapy compared to chemotherapy alone.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Eligible participants will be randomly assigned 1:1 to receive either chemotherapy plus IMNN-001 or chemotherapy alone, followed by standard of care maintenance therapy.

Randomization will stratify by confirmed biomarker tumor homologous recombination deficiency status and stage of cancer.

On both arms, the chemotherapy regimen will consist of paclitaxel 175 mg/m2 IV over 3 hours followed by carboplatin AUC 6 IV over 1 hour on Day 1 of each cycle. This will be repeated every 3 weeks for a total of 6 cycles, 3 in the neoadjuvant period and 3 in the adjuvant period following interval debulking surgery (IDS). On the experimental arm, IMNN-001 at a dose of 100 mg/m2 will be administered IP on Days 8 and 15 of the first chemotherapy cycle and then on Days 1, 8, and 15 of all subsequent 5 chemotherapy cycles for a total of 17 treatments in the neoadjuvant and adjuvant settings. When given on the same day as chemotherapy, IMNN-001 should be given at least 30 minutes after completion of carboplatin infusion. IDS will take place after 3 cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) + IMNN-001 for 8 doses. Additional cycles of NACT are allowed at the discretion of the investigator but with discussion with the medical monitor.

An independent Data Monitoring Committee (iDMC) will monitor participants' safety and study conduct throughout the course of the trial.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Participants must be female, ≥18 years of age, able to understand the study procedures, and agree to participate in the study by providing written informed consent.
2. Participants with a histologically confirmed diagnosis of high-grade non-mucinous epithelial ovarian (serous, endometrioid, carcinosarcoma, mixed epithelial pathologies), fallopian tube or peritoneal cancer that is Stage IIIB/C or IV according to the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) or tumor, node and metastasis staging criteria.
3. Participants eligible to receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
4. Participants will provide a tumor tissue sample at pre-screening or screening, via laparoscopy or image guided core biopsy for determination of confirmed biomarker tumor status (HRD vs. HRP). See biomarker status definitions in the section below.
5. Participants of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test (beta human chorionic gonadotropin) within 14 days prior to initiation of protocol therapy and be practicing an effective form of contraception. If applicable, participants must discontinue breastfeeding prior to study entry.
