Abstract

Patients with platinum resistant ovarian cancer (OvCa) respond poorly to existing therapies. Hence there is a need for more effective treatments.The DeCidE1 trial is a multicenter, randomized, open-label, single-arm phase 2 study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of maveropepimut-S (MVP-S) with cyclophosphamide (CPA) in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer. Median follow-up for evaluable subjects was 4.4 months. Data were collected from March 2019 to June 2021. Subjects received two injections of 0.25 mL MVP-S 3 weeks apart, followed by one 0.1 mL doses, every 8 weeks up to progression. Oral CPA, 50 mg twice daily, was administered in repeating weekly on and off cycles.Twenty-two patients were enrolled. Median age was 58 years (38-78 years). Among the evaluable population, ORR was 21% (90% CI, 7.5%-41.9%), with a DCR of 63% (90% CI, 41.8%-81.3%), including 4 (21%) patients with partial responses, 8 (42%) stable disease, and 7 (37%) progressive disease. The ORRs were consistent across subgroups based on platinum-sensitivity, and DCR was higher in the platinum-resistant subpopulation. Four stable disease patients maintained clinical benefit up to 25 months. Most treatment related adverse events (TRAEs) were grade 1 and 2 (87% of unique events). Most common AEs were injection site reactions. Eight subjects reported grade 3 and no grade 4 AEs. Survivin-specific T cell responses were observed in treated patients with clinical benefit.MVP-S with intermittent low-dose CPA is well-tolerated, with clinical benefit for patients with recurrent OvCa. Observed responses are irrespective of the platinum status.
