Plain-language summary
Study to compare the safety and efficacy of oregovomab versus placebo, administered in combination with specific cycles of a standard six-cycle chemotherapy regimen (paclitaxel and carboplatin), for the treatment of subjects with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer who have undergone optimal debulking.

Inclusion criteria
. Adults 18 years old or older.
. Newly diagnosed epithelial adenocarcinoma of ovarian, fallopian tube or peritoneal origin FIGO Stage III or IV disease.
. Histologic epithelial cell types: high grade serous adenocarcinoma, high grade endometrioid adenocarcinoma, undifferentiated carcinoma, clear cell adenocarcinoma, mixed epithelial carcinoma, or adenocarcinoma not otherwise specified (N.O.S.).
. Completed debulking surgery (either primary debulking surgery or interval debulking surgery at the discretion of the investigator). Debulking surgery must be optimal, R1 or R0 (defined as R1, macroscopic less than 1 cm in diameter, or R0, microscopic or no evidence of tumor). Assessment of debulking surgery will be determined at the time of the surgical procedure, not by post-surgical imaging.
. For Cohort 1, subject will undergo primary debulking surgery. Subject must receive initial dose of paclitaxel 175 mg/m\^2 given intravenously and carboplatin AUC 6 IV every 3 weeks for 6 cycles. Carboplatin total dose given as 5 consecutive daily pulse doses, for subjects who experiences significant grade 3 or higher emesis. Subsequent dose modifications will be instituted per protocol. Cycle 1 of chemotherapy ± oregovomab/placebo must be anticipated to occur within 6 weeks after primary debulking surgery
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
What they're measuring
1
Investigator Assessed Progression Free Survival
Timeframe: Date of randomization until date of first documented disease progression or date of death from any cause, whichever comes first, at up to approximately 6 years.
. For Cohort 2, subject will undergo interval debulking surgery (IDS). Prior to IDS, subjects must have receive 3 cycles of paclitaxel and carboplatin as neoadjuvant treatment. After IDS, subjects must receive paclitaxel 175 mg/m\^2 IV and carboplatin AUC 5-6 IV every 3 weeks, starting cycle 4. Cycle 4 of chemotherapy ± oregovomab/placebo must be anticipated to occur within 6 weeks after IDS.
. Suitable venous access for the study-required procedures
. Preoperative serum CA-125 levels ≥ 50 U/mL for Cohort 1, serum CA-125 levels ≥ 50 U/mL prior to first neoadjuvant chemotherapy for Cohort 2.
Exclusion criteria
. BRCA1 or BRCA2 germline gene mutation test result with:
. Pathogenic, ambiguous or inconclusive result available within 28 days prior to starting study treatment (subjects with BRCA1 or BRCA 2 variants of uncertain significance can enroll onto the study as long as there is no intent to administer PARP inhibitors for front-line maintenance therapy), or
. Known BRCA1 and BRCA2 somatic mutations, if testing is performed
. Known Somatic Homologous Recombination Deficiency (HRD) who will receive PARP inhibitor front-line maintenance therapy. Subjects with somatic HRD are eligible as long as there is no intent to administer PARP inhibitor front-line maintenance therapy.
. Subjects with mucinous adenocarcinoma, carcinosarcoma, tumors with neuroendocrine features and low-grade adenocarcinoma.
. Female subjects who are lactating and breastfeeding, or have a positive serum pregnancy test within 7 days prior to the first dose of study treatment (C1D1 for Cohort 1 or C4D1 for Cohort 2).
. Any serious medical or psychiatric illness that could, in the investigator's opinion, potentially interfere with the completion of treatment according to this protocol.
. Active autoimmune disease, such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), ulcerative colitis, Crohn's Disease, multiple sclerosis (MS), or ankylosing spondylitis requiring active disease modifying treatment.
