About this study
Official title: A Phase 1b/2 Open-label, Multicenter Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Raludotatug Deruxtecan With or Without Other Anticancer Investigational Agents in Participants With Advanced High-Grade Serous or High-Grade Endometrioid Epithelial Ovarian, Primary Peritoneal, or Fallopian Tube Cancer (REJOICE-Ovarian02)
Researchers are looking for other ways to treat high-grade serous and certain other ovarian cancer. High-grade means the cancer cells grow and spread quickly. Serous means the cancer started in the cells that cover the ovaries, the lining of the belly, or in the fallopian tubes.
Standard treatment (usual treatment) for people with high-grade serous ovarian cancer may include:

- Chemotherapy, which is a treatment that uses medicine to destroy cancer cells or stop them from growing
- Targeted therapy, which is a treatment that works to control how specific types of cancer cells grow and spread
Raludotatug deruxtecan (R-DXd) is a study treatment that is an antibody drug conjugate (ADC). An ADC attaches to a protein on cancer cells and delivers treatment to destroy those cells. Researchers want to know if R-DXd is safe to take with other treatments and if people tolerate them together. They also want to learn how many people have the cancer respond (gets smaller or goes away) to the treatments.
Read the detailed description
This study has 2 parts: Part 1 is a dose escalation phase of R-DXd. Part 2 is the expansion phase and will use the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of R-DXd determined in Part 1.

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
Researchers are looking for other ways to treat high-grade serous and certain other ovarian cancer. High-grade means the cancer cells grow and spread quickly. Serous means the cancer started in the cells that cover the ovaries, the lining of the belly, or in the fallopian tubes.
Standard treatment (usual treatment) for people with high-grade serous ovarian cancer may include:
- Chemotherapy, which is a treatment that uses medicine to destroy cancer cells or stop them from growing
- Targeted therapy, which is a treatment that works to control how specific types of cancer cells grow and spread
Raludotatug deruxtecan (R-DXd) is a study treatment that is an antibody drug conjugate (ADC). An ADC attaches to a protein on cancer cells and delivers treatment to destroy those cells. Researchers want to know if R-DXd is safe to take with other treatments and if people tolerate them together. They also want to learn how many people have the cancer respond (gets smaller or goes away) to the treatments.
Detailed description
This study has 2 parts: Part 1 is a dose escalation phase of R-DXd. Part 2 is the expansion phase and will use the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of R-DXd determined in Part 1.

The number of participants with DLTs will be reported.
Part 1: Number of Participants with One or More Adverse Events (AEs)
Time frame: Up to approximately 3 years
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. The number of participants with one or more AEs will be reported.
Part 1: Number of Participants who Discontinue Study Intervention Due to an AE
Time frame: Up to approximately 3 years
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study intervention, whether or not considered related to the study intervention. The number of participants who discontinue study intervention due to an AE will be reported.
Part 2: Objective Response Rate (ORR)
Time frame: Up to approximately 3 years
ORR is defined as the percentage of participants with Complete Response (CR: disappearance of all target lesions) or Partial Response (PR: at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions) per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1). The percentage of participants who experience CR or PR as assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) will be presented.
Part 2: Progression Free Survival (PFS) - Cohort C-2 Arm 1 and Arm 2
Time frame: Up to approximately 3 years
PFS is defined as the time from randomization to the first documented progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first as assessed by Response Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1). PD is defined as ≥20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of ≥5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions is also considered PD. PFS as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR) will be presented.
