p53 Activation in Platinum-Resistant High Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer, a Study of PLD With APR-246

March 6, 2025 updated by: Aprea Therapeutics

PiSARRO-R: p53 Suppressor Activation in Platinum-Resistant High Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer, a Phase II Study of Systemic Pegylated Liposomal Doxorubicin Chemotherapy With APR-246

The purpose of this study is to make a preliminary assessment of the efficacy of a combined APR-246 and PLD chemotherapy regimen in patients with platinum-resistant recurrent high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) with mutated TP53. In addition, the study aims to assess the safety profile of the combined APR-246 and PLD chemotherapy regimen, to evaluate potential biomarkers, and to assess the biological activity in tumor and surrogate tissues. The trial will enroll at least 25 evaluable patients.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Confirmed High Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer, and positive nuclear immunohistochemical (IHC) staining for p53
  • Disease Progression between 4 weeks - 6 months after the last platinum-based treatment was administered
  • At least a single measurable lesion
  • Adequate organ function prior to registration
  • Toxicities from previous cancer therapies (excluding alopecia) must have recovered to grade 1 (defined by National Cancer Institute [NCI] Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events [CTCAE] version 4.0). Chronic stable grade 2 peripheral neuropathy secondary to neurotoxicity from prior therapies may be considered on a case by case basis
  • ECOG performance status of 0 to 2

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Prior exposure to cumulative doses of doxorubicin >400 mg/m2 or epirubicin >720 mg/m2
  • Hypersensitivity to PLD or to any of the excipients
  • Unable to undergo imaging by either CT scan or MRI
  • Evidence of any other medical conditions (such as psychiatric illness, infectious diseases, neurological conditions, physical examination or laboratory findings) that may interfere with the planned treatment, affect patient compliance or place the patient at high risk from treatment related complications
  • Concurrent malignancy requiring therapy (excluding non-invasive carcinoma or carcinoma in situ)
  • Is taking concurrent (or within 4 weeks prior to registration) chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy, or any ancillary therapy that is considered to be investigational (i.e., used for non-approved indications(s) and in the context of a research investigation). Supportive care measures are allowed. Palliative limited radiation therapy for pain reduction is allowed

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Overall Response Rate (ORR)
Time Frame: Up to 18 months
Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.0) for target lesions and assessed by MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR.
Up to 18 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Treatment-emergent Adverse Events With Combined APR-246 and PLD Regimen
Time Frame: Treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were defined as AEs that occurred on or after the first dose of study medication up to and including 30 days after last dose. Median number of 28d Cycles=2.5 (Min = 1, Max = 14)
Treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were defined as AEs that occurred on or after the first dose of study medication up to and including 30 days after last dose. AEs were graded according to NCI CTCAE (Version 4.0). Patients with multiple TEAEs were only counted once within a summary category: SOC, PT, maximum grade, or relationship to treatment. Patients with events in more than one category were counted once within each category.
