Overview

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat people with endometrial cancer (EC) who have previously received treatment with platinum based therapy (a type of chemotherapy) and immunotherapy. Immunotherapy is a treatment that helps the immune system fight cancer. This clinical study will compare MK-2870 sacituzumab tirumotecan to chemotherapy. The goal of the study is to learn if people who receive MK-2870 sacituzumab tirumotecan live longer overall and without the cancer getting worse compared to people who receive chemotherapy.

Eligibility

The main inclusion and exclusion criteria include but are not limited to the following:

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Has a histologically-confirmed diagnosis of endometrial carcinoma or carcinosarcoma.
  • Has radiographically evaluable disease, either measurable or nonmeasurable per response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST 1.1), as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR).
  • Has received prior platinum-based chemotherapy and anti-programmed cell death 1 protein (PD-1)/anti- programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) therapy, either separately or in combination.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Has neuroendocrine tumors or endometrial sarcoma, including stromal sarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, adenosarcoma, or other types of pure sarcomas
  • Has a history of documented severe dry eye syndrome, severe Meibomian gland disease and/or blepharitis, or severe corneal disease that prevents/delays corneal healing
  • Has active inflammatory bowel disease requiring immunosuppressive medication or previous history of inflammatory bowel disease
  • Has had a recurrence of endometrial carcinoma or carcinosarcoma more than >12 months after completing platinum-based therapy administered in the curative-intent setting without any additional platinum-based therapy received in the recurrent setting. Note: 1) If Immunotherapy-based treatment is administered in the recurrent setting, then platinum rechallenge is not required, regardless of the duration of the platinum-free interval from time of adjuvant therapy 2) For Stage IVb disease, treatment that includes gynecological surgery followed by a platinum-based regimen is NOT considered curative-intent per protocol and does not require platinum rechallenge in the recurrent setting, regardless of the duration of the platinum-free interval
  • Has received more than 3 prior lines of therapy for endometrial carcinoma or carcinosarcoma
  • Has history of (noninfectious) pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease that required steroids or has current pneumonitis/interstitial lung disease
  • Has received prior treatment with single-agent nonplatinum based chemotherapy in the third-line setting
  • Has received prior treatment with a trophoblast cell surface antigen 2 (TROP2)-targeted antibody drug conjugate (ADC) (eg, sacituzumab govitecan)
  • Has received prior treatment with a topoisomerase I inhibitor-containing ADC (eg, sacituzumab govitecan or fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan-nxki)
  • Has previously received both single-agent paclitaxel and single-agent doxorubicin in any setting for prior treatment of endometrial cancer

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
