Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
I. To demonstrate that bevacizumab, an anti-VEGF antibody therapy, (or an anti-VEGF antibody biosimilar) in combination with carboplatin, paclitaxel, and pembrolizumab is superior to carboplatin, paclitaxel, and pembrolizumab (the control arm) or carboplatin, paclitaxel, and bevacizumab in prolonging progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with pMMR, TP53 mutated advanced stage (III or IV) or recurrent endometrial cancer.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To demonstrate that bevacizumab in combination with carboplatin, paclitaxel, and pembrolizumab is superior to carboplatin, paclitaxel, and pembrolizumab or carboplatin, paclitaxel, and bevacizumab in prolonging overall survival (OS) in patients with pMMR, TP53 mutated advanced stage (III or IV) or recurrent endometrial cancer.
II. To examine the impact of the addition of bevacizumab in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel or with carboplatin, paclitaxel, and pembrolizumab on PFS and OS based on type of p53 immunohistochemistry (IHC) aberrancy (over expression/cytoplasmic expression versus null \[complete absence of staining\]) and mutation type.
III. To evaluate toxicity on treatment with bevacizumab when combined with carboplatin, paclitaxel, and/or pembrolizumab as assessed by Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version (v.)5.0.
IV. To explore the anti-tumor activity in each treatment arm as assessed by objective response rate in the subset of patients with measurable disease by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1.
OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 3 arms.
ARM 1 (REFERENCE ARM): Patients receive paclitaxel intravenously (IV) over 3 hours, carboplatin IV and pembrolizumab IV over 30 minutes on day 1 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 3 weeks for up to 6-10 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Starting 3 weeks after last combination phase cycle, patients may continue to receive maintenance pembrolizumab IV over 30 minutes on day 1 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 6 weeks for up to an additional14 cycles. Additionally, patients undergo urine and blood sample collection and computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) throughout the study.
ARM 2 (EXPERIMENTAL TRIPLET ARM): Patients receive paclitaxel IV over 3 hours, carboplatin IV, and bevacizumab IV or anti-VEGF antibody biosimilar on day 1 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 3 weeks for up to 6-10 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Starting 3 weeks after last combination phase cycle, patients may continue to receive maintenance bevacizumab IV on day 1 of each cycle. Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for up to an additional 28 doses. Additionally, patients undergo urine and blood sample collection and CT or MRI throughout the study.
ARM 3 (EXPERIMENTAL QUADRUPLET ARM): Patients receive paclitaxel IV over 3 hours, carboplatin IV, pembrolizumab IV over 30 minutes, and bevacizumab IV or anti-VEGF antibody biosimilar on day 1 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 3 weeks for up to 6-10 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Starting 3 weeks after last combination phase cycle, patients may continue to receive maintenance pembrolizumab IV over 30 minutes every 6 weeks for up to an additional 14 cycles and bevacizumab IV every 3 weeks for up to an additional 28 doses. Additionally, patients undergo urine and blood sample collection and CT or MRI throughout the study.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years then every 6 months for up to 3 years.
