About this trial
The proposed study design is a single arm Phase II trial to document the feasibility of carboplatin-mirvetuximab - in patients with advanced-stage EOC. Patients with biopsy confirmed, newly diagnosed, advanced-stage serous EOC deemed appropriate for NACT will have their tumors evaluated for FRα receptor over-expression via a centralized immunohistochemical assay (IHC) and identified as appropriate for study participation if IHC staining is PS2+ in \>75% of cells (40% of all serous patients). Eligible patients will receive NACT with one cycle of carboplatin, followed by mirvetuximab + carboplatin (if FRα +) every 21 days for three cycles prior to interval cytoreductive surgery (iCRS). A total of 70 will be included in the study. Following completion of 4 cycles total of NACT and after allowing for appropriate recovery of cycle # 4, patients eligible for surgery, will undergo an iCRS. Patients will then complete 3 more cycles of mirvetuximab + carboplatin for a total of 7 intended cycles of treatment. It is up to the treating physician if they want to add bevacizumab to the last 2 cycles or use any type of maintenance therapy. The decision to add bevacizumab or use maintenance therapy does not need to be made upfront. Patients will sign a screening consent form prior to tissue biopsy. If a patient is found to be FRα negative, their treating physician can select the treatment they deem appropriate and the patient will be declared a screen failure. Patients with BRCA mutations are not excluded from this trial and are allowed to receive standard of care maintenance therapy including bevacizumab and/or PARP inhibitors.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers

Patients must be willing to provide an archival tumor tissue block or slides, or undergo procedure to obtain a new biopsy using a low-risk, medically routine procedure for immunohistochemistry (IHC) confirmation of FRα positivity
Patients must have a performance status of 0 or 1.
Disqualifiers
Patients who have previously been treated with a systemic anti-cancer therapy
Patients with low-grade serous, endometrioid, clear cell, or mucinous histology
Patients with active or chronic corneal disorders, history of corneal transplantation, or active ocular conditions requiring ongoing treatment/monitoring, such as uncontrolled glaucoma, wet age-related macular degeneration requiring intravitreal injections, active diabetic retinopathy with macular edema, macular degeneration, presence of papilledema, and /or monocular vision
History of hepatitis B or C infection (whether or not on active antiviral therapy)

Treatments tested in this trial
mirvetuximab soravtansine (MIRV; IMGN853)
DrugMirvetuximab soravtansine (also known as IMGN853 and MIRV) is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that consists of a high affinity humanized monoclonal antibody against folate receptor α (FRα, the protein product of the folate receptor 1 \[FOLR1\] gene) that is conjugated to a cytotoxic maytansinoid by the hindered disulfide succinimidyl 4-(pyridin-2-yl)disulfanyl)-2-sulfo-butyrate linker (sulfo-SPDB) linker. FRα is a glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol (GPI)-linked protein, which shows limited normal tissue expression and high expression on the surface of solid tumors, particularly epithelial ovarian cancer, fallopian tube cancer, and primary peritoneal cancer (referenced herein collectively as EOC), endometrial cancer, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and renal cell cancer.
