A Study of Avutometinib (VS-6766) + Defactinib (VS-6063) in Recurrent Low-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer (RAMP 301)

April 19, 2024 updated by: Verastem, Inc.

A Phase 3, Randomized, Open-Label Study of Combination Therapy With Avutometinib Plus Defactinib Versus Investigator's Choice of Treatment in Patients With Recurrent Low-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer (LGSOC) (RAMP 301)

This study will assess the safety and efficacy of avutometinib (VS-6766) in combination with defactinib versus Investigator's choice of treatments (ICT) in subjects with recurrent LGSOC who have progressed on a prior platinum-based therapy.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This international, randomized, open-label, Phase 3 study will compare the investigational combination of avutometinib plus defactinib versus Investigator's Choice of Treatments (ICT) in patients with recurrent LGSOC who have progressed on a prior platinum-based therapy. Avutometinib and defactinib are both a type of drug called a kinase inhibitor. Kinase inhibitors block cancer cell growth. The study will compare the progression-free survival (PFS) of the combination of avutometinib plus defactinib versus ICT. The study will also evaluate the effect of the combination on safety, overall survival, other efficacy endpoints, and health-related quality of life and disease related symptoms. The study is being conducted by gynecological cancer specialists. Patients who are eligible and agree to participate in this study will be treated with either a combination of avutometinib with defactinib, or with one of five standard of care NCCN and ESMO treatment recommendations for recurrent LGSOC, and then with subsequent follow up appointments. Patients who originally received one of the standard of care treatments who are determined to have progressive disease may be eligible to crossover to receive the investigational combination avutometinib plus defactinib.Avutometinib and defactinib are investigational drugs that have not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)

To assess the health-related quality of life and disease based on European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of life Questionnaire Core module C30 (QLQ-C30).
Time Frame: 24 months
The EORTC QLQ-C30 is a questionnaire to assess quality of life of ovarian cancer patients. It is composed of 30 questions. An overall scoring range is from 0 to 100. A high scales score represents a higher response level. Thus, a high score for a functional scale represents a high/healthy level of function, a high score for the global health status/QOL represents a high QOL, but a high score for a symptom scale/item represents a high level of symptomatology/problems. Quality of life measured by EORTC QLQ-C30. These are validated questionnaires to be answered by patients.
