Brief summary

This is a Phase 3, open-label, international, multi-center, efficacy, and safety study of avelumab in combination with and/or following platinum-based chemotherapy. Eligible patients must have previously untreated, histologically confirmed Stage III-IV epithelial ovarian (EOC), fallopian tube cancer (FTC), or primary peritoneal cancer (PPC) and be candidates for platinum-based chemotherapy. The primary purpose of the study is to demonstrate if avelumab given as single agent in the maintenance setting following frontline chemotherapy or in combination with carboplatin/paclitaxel is superior to platinum-based chemotherapy alone followed by observation in this population of newly diagnosed ovarian cancer patients.

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) as Assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)Baseline to progression of disease or discontinuation from the study or death, whichever occurred first (maximum duration of 27 months)BICR assessed PFS: Duration from randomization until disease progression or death. PFS data was censored on the date of the last adequate tumor assessment for participants who did not have an event (progression of disease or death), who started a new anti-cancer therapy prior to an event or for participants with an event after 2 or more missing tumor assessments. Progression as per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1: as at least a 20 percent (%) increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must have also demonstrated an absolute increase of at least 5 millimeters (mm). The appearance of one or more new lesions was also considered progression. Analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier method.

Based on numerical point scoring of symptoms. Includes three subscales: disease-related symptoms (10 items), treatment-related side effects (5) and general function/well-being (3). Participants rated their level of symptoms for each items using 5-point scale from 0=not at all to 4=very much. Items that were negatively framed, scores were reversed for analysis so that higher scores= good quality of life. Total symptom index: total of 18 scores, ranging from 0=severely symptomatic to 72=asymptomatic. Higher FOSI-18 scores= better functioning or lower symptom burden. MP applicable only for arms 'Chemotherapy followed by Avelumab' and 'Chemotherapy + Avelumab followed by Avelumab' and OP for 'Chemotherapy followed by Observation'.
European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions-5 Levels (EQ-5D-5L) ScoreBaseline to discontinuation from the study or death, whichever occurred first (maximum duration of 36 months)EQ-5D-5L is a standardized participant completed questionnaire that measures health-related quality of life and translates that score into an index value or utility score. EQ-5D-5L consists of two components: a health state profile and an optional visual analogue scale (VAS). In VAS, participants rated their overall health status from 0 (worst imaginable) to 100 (best imaginable). EQ-5D health state profile is comprised of 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: 1=no problems, 2=slight problems, 3=moderate problems, 4=severe problems, and 5=extreme problems. Published weights are available that allow for the creation of a single summary score. 57 overall scores ranged from 0 to 1, with low scores representing a higher level of dysfunction.

Outcome results

Primary

Progression-Free Survival (PFS) as Assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)

BICR assessed PFS: Duration from randomization until disease progression or death. PFS data was censored on the date of the last adequate tumor assessment for participants who did not have an event (progression of disease or death), who started a new anti-cancer therapy prior to an event or for participants with an event after 2 or more missing tumor assessments. Progression as per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1: as at least a 20 percent (%) increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this includes the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must have also demonstrated an absolute increase of at least 5 millimeters (mm). The appearance of one or more new lesions was also considered progression. Analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier method.

Time frame: Baseline to progression of disease or discontinuation from the study or death, whichever occurred first (maximum duration of 27 months)

Population: The full analysis set included all randomized participants.

Duration of Response (DOR) as Assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)

BICR assessed DOR: time (in months) from the first documentation of objective response (confirmed CR or PR) to the date of first documentation of PD or death due to any cause. As per RECIST version 1.1, CR was defined as disappearance of all target and non-target lesions, and sustained for at least 4 weeks. Any pathological lymph nodes (target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. PR: at least 30% decrease in the sum of the longest dimensions of target lesions taking as reference the baseline sum longest dimensions. PD was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this included the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must have also demonstrated an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions was also considered progression. Analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier method.

Time frame: First response subsequently confirmed to progression of disease or start of new anti-cancer therapy or discontinuation from the study or death, whichever occurred first (maximum duration of 27 months)

Population: Analysis was performed on subset of randomized participants, who had objective response, as assessed by BICR.

European Quality of Life-5 Dimensions-5 Levels (EQ-5D-5L) Score

EQ-5D-5L is a standardized participant completed questionnaire that measures health-related quality of life and translates that score into an index value or utility score. EQ-5D-5L consists of two components: a health state profile and an optional visual analogue scale (VAS). In VAS, participants rated their overall health status from 0 (worst imaginable) to 100 (best imaginable). EQ-5D health state profile is comprised of 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: 1=no problems, 2=slight problems, 3=moderate problems, 4=severe problems, and 5=extreme problems. Published weights are available that allow for the creation of a single summary score. 57 overall scores ranged from 0 to 1, with low scores representing a higher level of dysfunction.

Time frame: Baseline to discontinuation from the study or death, whichever occurred first (maximum duration of 36 months)

Population: The trial was terminated due to crossing of futility boundaries for both experimental arms as compared to the control arm at the pre-specified interim analysis for PFS based on BICR assessment. Subsequently, the data for this outcome measure was not collected and analyzed.

National Comprehensive Cancer Network-Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy (NCCN-FACT) Ovarian Symptom Index-18 (FOSI-18) is an 18-itemed participant completed questionnaire, designed to assess impact of cancer therapy on ovarian cancer-related symptoms. Based on numerical point scoring of symptoms. Includes three subscales: disease-related symptoms (10 items), treatment-related side effects (5) and general function/well-being (3). Participants rated their level of symptoms for each items using 5-point scale from 0=not at all to 4=very much. Items that were negatively framed, scores were reversed for analysis so that higher scores= good quality of life. Total symptom index: total of 18 scores, ranging from 0=severely symptomatic to 72=asymptomatic. Higher FOSI-18 scores= better functioning or lower symptom burden. MP applicable only for arms 'Chemotherapy followed by Avelumab' and 'Chemotherapy + Avelumab followed by Avelumab' and OP for 'Chemotherapy followed by Observation'.

Time frame: CP: Pre-dose on Day 1 of Cycles 2 to 6 (1 cycle= 21 days); MP/OP: Day 1 of Cycles 1 to 12 (1 cycle= 42 days), End of treatment (any time up to Month 27)

Population: The full analysis set included all randomized participants. Here, 'Number analyzed' = participants evaluable for this outcome measure at specified rows. Category titles 'MP/OP' imply which ever phase was applicable for the respective reporting arms.

Maintenance Progression-Free Survival as Assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)

BICR assessed maintenance PFS was defined as the time from Cycle 1 Day 1 of the maintenance phase to the date of the first documentation of PD or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. It was defined, for participants who proceeded to maintenance phase and who did not have disease progression by BICR during the chemotherapy phase. As per RECIST version 1.1, PD was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this included the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must have also demonstrated an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions was also considered progression. Analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier method.

Time frame: From Day 1 of Cycle 1 (42 days) of maintenance phase to progression of disease or death, whichever occurred first (maximum duration of 27 months)

Population: The analysis set included randomized participants who proceeded to maintenance phase and who did not have PD by BICR assessment during the chemotherapy phase.

Progression-Free Survival 2 (PFS2)

PFS2 was defined as time (in months) from the date of randomization to the start of second subsequent treatment after first documentation of PD, or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. Progression as per RECIST version 1.1, was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study (this included the baseline sum if that is the smallest on study). In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must have also demonstrated an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. The appearance of one or more new lesions was also considered progression. Analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier method.

Time frame: Baseline up to start of second subsequent treatment after first PD or discontinuation from study or death, which ever occured first (maximum duration of 27 months)

Population: The trial was terminated due to crossing of futility boundaries for both experimental arms as compared to the control arm at the pre-specified interim analysis for PFS based on BICR assessment. Subsequently, the data for this outcome measure was not collected and analyzed.

Progression-Free Survival (PFS) as Assessed by Gynecological Cancer Intergroup (GCIG) Criteria

PFS by GCIG was assessed by both RECIST 1.1 and cancer antigen 125 (CA-125). It was defined as time from randomization to first documentation of disease progression (PD) or death, whichever occurred first. As per RECIST 1.1, PD: greater than or equal to (\>=) 20 % increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study with absolute increase \>= 5 millimeters. PD based on serum CA-125 was defined as (i) participants with elevated CA-125 pretreatment and normalization of CA-125, (ii) participants with CA-125 in the reference range before treatment; (i) and (ii) must have showed CA-125 \>= 2 times the upper limit of the reference range on 2 occasions \>= 1 week apart, or (iii) participants with elevated CA-125 before treatment, which never normalized, showed CA-125 \>= 2 times the nadir value on 2 occasions \>= 1 week apart. Censoring date for PFS by GCIG was the latest of the censoring dates for PFS by RECIST 1.1 and PFS by CA-125.

Time frame: Baseline until disease progression by GCIG criteria or start of new anti-cancer therapy or discontinuation from the study or death, whichever occurred first (maximum duration of 27 months)
