AbbVie Inc. Announces Positive Topline Results from Phase 2 PICCOLO Trial Evaluating Mirvetuximab Soravtansine (ELAHERE®) for High Folate Receptor-Alpha Expressing Platinum-Sensitive Ovarian Cancer
PICCOLO is a single arm Phase 2 trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of mirvetuximab soravtansine monotherapy in patients with FR-alpha high platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer who have received at least two prior lines of platinum containing therapy or have a documented platinum allergy. The primary end point is objective response rate (ORR), and the key secondary endpoint is duration of response (DOR). The PICCOLO study was designed to statistically rule out an objective response rate of 28% or lower, as excluded by the lower bound of the confidence interval, a response rate which has been observed with non-platinum, single-agent chemotherapy in platinum-sensitive disease. Patients with PSOC with multiple prior lines of platinum-based therapy or who are ineligible for platinum-based therapy, as in the population in PICCOLO, have no established benchmark standard of care, particularly after disease progression on a PARP inhibitor. Mirvetuximab soravtansine is also being studied in PSOC in the Phase 3 GLORIOSA trial, in combination with bevacizumab versus bevacizumab alone in maintenance after second-line platinum-doublet therapy.
