Disitamab vedotin (RC48) with AK104 and bevacizumab for recurrent or persistent clear cell ovarian cancer

Disitamab Vedotin (RC48) in Combination With AK104 (PD-1/CTLA-4 Bispecific) and Bevacizumab for the Treatment of Recurrent and Persistent Clear Cell Ovarian Cancer

Phase 2 Interventional Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University · NCT06540729

This trial tests whether combining a HER2-targeted antibody–drug conjugate (disitamab vedotin) with the PD-1/CTLA-4 bispecific AK104 and bevacizumab helps people with recurrent or persistent ovarian clear cell carcinoma.

What this trial studies

This is a single-arm, phase II multicenter trial of disitamab vedotin (RC48) combined with AK104 and bevacizumab in patients with recurrent or persistent ovarian clear cell carcinoma. The rationale is that anti-angiogenic therapy and immune checkpoint modulation may synergize in this tumor type and that HER2-directed ADCs can both directly kill tumor cells and modulate anti-tumor immunity. Key eligibility includes pathologically confirmed OCCC (≥70% clear cell if mixed), HER2 IHC ≥1+, at least one measurable lesion by RECIST 1.1, and up to two prior lines of chemotherapy. The study will administer the three-drug combination and measure anti-tumor activity and safety outcomes including response rate and adverse events.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Adults with recurrent or persistent ovarian clear cell carcinoma, HER2 IHC ≥1+, at least one measurable lesion per RECIST 1.1, and who have received no more than two prior lines of chemotherapy are ideal candidates.

Not a fit: Patients with no HER2 expression (IHC 0), who have had more than two prior chemotherapy regimens, or who cannot tolerate immunotherapy or anti-angiogenic therapy are less likely to benefit.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the combination could produce higher tumor response rates and extend survival for patients with recurrent or persistent ovarian clear cell carcinoma compared with current options.

How similar studies have performed: Prior studies have shown activity for HER2-targeted ADCs in ovarian cancer and promise for combining anti-angiogenesis with immunotherapy, but the three-way combination in OCCC is novel and not yet widely tested.

Eligibility criteria

Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

* The pathological diagnosis confirms ovarian clear cell carcinoma. In cases of mixed carcinoma, a prerequisite is that clear cell carcinoma constitutes at least 70% of the tumor mass. Moreover, adherence to RECIST 1.1 criteria mandates the presence of at least one evaluable lesion.
* HER2 IHC ≥1+.
* Treatment-naïve individuals encompass those experiencing tumor progression during postoperative chemotherapy and those who, following platinum-containing neoadjuvant chemotherapy, have not undergone surgical intervention yet and subsequently manifested progression during or after platinum-containing chemotherapy, provided that they have received a maximum of 2 prior lines of chemotherapy.
* Recurrent patients, whether platinum-sensitive or platinum-resistant, include those lacking a platinum-free interval of ≥6 months and who, post-recurrence, have undergone re-administration of platinum-containing chemotherapy but have demonstrated an inability to tolerate toxic reactions, with a maximum of 2 lines of chemotherapy post-recurrence.
* Previous utilization of bevacizumab is permissible.
* Adequate bone marrow reserve function necessitates pre-operative blood routine parameters meeting specific criteria: white blood cell count ≥3.0×10\^9/L, neutrophil count ≥1.5×10\^9/L, platelet count ≥100×10\^9/L, and hemoglobin ≥80 g/L.
* atisfactory organ function entails biochemical test results within defined limits: AST ≤2.5× upper limit of normal (ULN), ALT ≤2.5× ULN, serum total bilirubin ≤1.5× ULN, and creatinine ≤1.5× ULN.
* ECOG performance status score ranging from 0 to 1.
* Patient participation is contingent upon voluntary execution of an informed consent form.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients with a history of immunotherapy, including treatments targeting PD-1, PD-L1, CAR-T, and CTLA-4.
* Patients diagnosed with other malignancies within the past five years, excluding skin cancer and thyroid cancer.
* Patients with an expected survival of ≤12 weeks.
* Patients with a known allergy to taxane-based medications.
* Patients who, based on clinical assessment, have contraindications for receiving immunotherapy and/or bevacizumab, such as uncontrolled infections, gastrointestinal fistula, autoimmune diseases, active hepatitis, or active bleeding.

Patients currently undergoing treatment with investigational anti-cancer drugs in other clinical trials.

* Patients with any unstable condition or situation that may compromise their safety or adherence to the study protocol.
