Evaluating ZN-c3 for women with recurrent uterine serous carcinoma

A Phase 2 Open-Label, Multicenter Study to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of ZN-c3 in Adult Women With Recurrent or Persistent Uterine Serous Carcinoma

Phase 2 Interventional K-Group, Beta, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, Inc · NCT04814108

This study is testing a new treatment called ZN-c3 to see if it can help women with recurrent uterine serous carcinoma who have run out of other options.

What this trial studies

This Phase 2 open-label, multicenter study aims to assess the clinical activity and safety of ZN-c3 (azenosertib) in adult women diagnosed with recurrent or persistent uterine serous carcinoma (USC). Participants must have histologically confirmed USC for which no effective treatment options are available or have been intolerable. The study will involve administering ZN-c3 and monitoring its effects on the disease. The goal is to determine if this treatment can provide a viable option for patients facing limited alternatives.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are women aged 18 and older with recurrent or persistent USC who have exhausted other treatment options.

Not a fit: Patients with carcinosarcomas or those who have not received prior necessary therapies for endometrial cancer may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could offer a new therapeutic option for women with recurrent or persistent uterine serous carcinoma.

How similar studies have performed: While this approach is novel for this specific condition, similar studies evaluating targeted therapies in gynecological cancers have shown promising results.

4. Required prior therapy for endometrial cancer:

   1. Treatment with a platinum-based chemotherapy regimen.
   2. Treatment with a PD-(L)1 inhibitor
   3. Known HER2-positive tumors: Treatment with at least 1 HER2-targeted therapy, except for subjects who are not clinically eligible.
5. Adequate hematologic and organ function

   4. Autologous or allogeneic stem cell transplant within 3 months.
   5. Current use of any other investigational drug therapy \<28 days or 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter).

3. A serious illness or medical condition(s) including, but not limited to: Any evidence of bowel obstruction as determined by air/fluid levels on computed tomography (CT) scan, recent hospitalization for bowel obstruction within 3 months prior to C1D1, or recurrent paracentesis or thoracentesis within 6 weeks prior to C1D1.
