Evaluation of Mirvetuximab Soravtansine (IMGN853) in Women With Folate Receptor-α Positive Endometrial Cancer

June 23, 2026 updated by: Alessandro Santin

A Phase II Evaluation of the Safety and Efficacy of Mirvetuximab Soravtansine (IMGN853) in Women With Folate Receptor-α Positive Persistent or Recurrent Endometrial Cancer

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the activity and safety profile of mirvetuximab soravtansine (IMGN853) in patients with type II endometrial cancers that overexpress folate receptor alpha (FRα).

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This study will enroll patients with persistent or recurrent FRα-positive uterine serous carcinoma (pure or mixed), Grade 3 endometrial adenocarcinoma, or carcinosarcoma with high grade serous or Grade 3 endometrioid components. All patients must have measurable disease. The primary objective of the study is to assess the activity of IMGN853 as measured by objective response rate (ORR). The secondary objectives are to assess the duration of overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and durable disease control rate (DDCR), as well as the safety profile of IMGN853 in endometrial carcinoma patients. Exploratory/correlative objectives are to correlate ORR, PFS, and OS with the level of folate receptor α expression and explore use of circulating tumor (ct) DNA as a biomarker for disease response and compare its performance to cancer antigen 125 (CA-125). All enrolled patients will receive IMGN853 at a dose of 6 mg/kg administered intravenously once every 3 weeks until unacceptable toxicity or progression of disease requiring discontinuation of treatment.

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 to 100 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No
