AI Article Synopsis

  • Platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer (PSOC) is commonly treated with platinum-based chemotherapy plus bevacizumab, but patients often face disease progression within a year, indicating a need for new treatment strategies.
  • Mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx (MIRV), an antibody-drug conjugate targeting folate receptor alpha, has shown promising results when used with bevacizumab, particularly in patients with high levels of FRα.
  • The ongoing Phase III GLORIOSA trial aims to compare the effectiveness of MIRV plus bevacizumab against bevacizumab alone for patients with FRα-high PSOC after responding to previous treatment.

Article Abstract

At first recurrence, platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer (PSOC) is frequently treated with platinum-based chemotherapy doublets plus bevacizumab, then single-agent bevacizumab. Most patients' disease progresses within a year after chemotherapy, emphasizing the need for novel strategies. Mirvetuximab soravtansine-gynx (MIRV), an antibody-drug conjugate, comprises a folate receptor alpha (FRα)-binding antibody and tubulin-targeting payload (maytansinoid DM4). In FRα-high PSOC, MIRV plus bevacizumab previously showed promising efficacy (objective response rate, 69% [95% CI: 41-89]; median progression-free survival, 13.3 months [95% CI: 8.3-18.3]; median duration of response, 12.9 months [95% CI: 6.5-15.7]) and safety. The Phase III randomized GLORIOSA trial will evaluate MIRV plus bevacizumab vs. bevacizumab alone as maintenance therapy in patients with FRα-high PSOC who did not have disease progression following second-line platinum-based doublet chemotherapy plus bevacizumab.: ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05445778; GOG.org ID: GOG-3078; ENGOT.ESGO.org ID: ENGOT-ov76.
