ROSELLA: This study is evaluating the effectiveness of an investigational drug called relacorilant when given in combination with chemotherapy, compared to chemotherapy alone, in people with advanced, platinum-resistant, high-grade epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal or fallopian-tube cancer who have had previous treatmentA Phase 3 Study of Relacorilant in Combination With Nab-Paclitaxel Versus Nab-Paclitaxel Monotherapy in Advanced, Platinum-Resistant, High-Grade Epithelial Ovarian, Primary Peritoneal, or Fallopian-Tube Cancer

Clinical summary

Summary

Eligible participants will be randomly allocated to one of two treatment arms.

In Arm 1 (Experimental), participants will receive nab-paclitaxel (chemotherapy) plus relacorilant. Nab-paclitaxel will be given on Days 1, 8 and 15 of each 28-day cycle via intravenous (IV) infusion. Relacorilant will be given intermittently via oral tablet (once daily on the day before, the day of, and the day after nab-paclitaxel).

In Arm 2 (Active Comparator), participants will receive nab-paclitaxel on Days 1, 8 and 15 of each 28-day cycle via IV infusion.

Conditions

This trial is treating patients with advanced, platinum-resistant, high-grade serous epithelial ovarian, primary peritoneal or fallopian-tube cancer

  • Able to comply with protocol requirements.
  • Able to swallow and retain oral medication and does not have uncontrolled emesis.
  • Received at least 1 but ≤3 lines of prior systemic anticancer therapy and at least 1 prior line of platinum therapy and prior treatment with bevacizumab is required.
  • Has adequate organ function meeting the following laboratory-test criteria: Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1500 cells/mm^3, Platelet count ≥100,000/mm^3, Hemoglobin ≥9 g/dL, Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤2.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN), or ≤5 × ULN in context of liver metastases, Total bilirubin ≤1.5 × ULN, and Albumin ≥3 g/dL, and creatinine clearance >40 mL/min/1.73 m^2 (measured or estimated).

  • Has low-grade endometrioid, clear cell, mucinous, or sarcomatous histology, or mixed tumors containing any of these histologies, or low-grade or borderline ovarian tumor.

  • Has not received prior bevacizumab treatment.
  • Has been treated with the following prior to randomization: chemotherapy, immunotherapy, investigational agent treatments for disease under study within 28 days before first dose of study drug, radiotherapy not completed at least 2 weeks prior to first dose of study drug, hormonal anticancer therapies within 7 days of first dose of study drug, and systemic, inhaled, or prescription strength topical corticosteroids within 21 days of first dose of study drug.
  • Has received wide-field radiation to more than 25% of marrow-bearing areas.

  • Has clinically significant uncontrolled condition(s) or condition which, in the opinion of the Investigator, may confound the results of the trial or interfere with the patient's safety or participation.
  • Has current chronic/active infection with human immunodeficiency virus or current chronic/active infection with hepatitis C virus or hepatitis B virus.
  • Has any untreated or symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastases.
  • Patients with a history of other malignancy within 3 years prior to randomization
  • Is taking a concomitant medication that is a strong cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A inhibitor or strong CYP3A inducer, or that is a substrate of CYP3A with a narrow therapeutic window.
  • Concurrent treatment on other investigational treatment studies for the treatment of ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer.
  • Has received a live vaccine within 30 days of prior to the study start date.
