A Comparison of Platinum-based Therapy With TSR-042 and Niraparib Versus Standard of Care (SOC) Platinum-based Therapy as First-line Treatment of Stage III or IV Nonmucinous Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

A Randomized, Double-blind, Phase 3 Comparison of Platinum-based Therapy With TSR-042 and Niraparib Versus Standard of Care Platinum-based Therapy as First-line Treatment of Stage III or IV Nonmucinous Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

Ovarian cancer is a heterogeneous disease, characterized by complex molecular and genetic changes. The high expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor, programmed death receptor ligands 1 (PD-L1) expression, and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage in ovarian tumors provide several targets for treatment and maintenance of disease response. Given the unmet medical need of participants with advanced or metastatic ovarian cancer, this study design will enable investigators to provide participants with current SOC for ovarian cancer for the duration of the study. This is a global, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, controlled Phase 3 study that will primarily compare the progression-free survival (PFS) for participants receiving dostarlimab with SOC chemotherapy +/- bevacizumab followed by niraparib and dostarlimab maintenance +/- bevacizumab versus participants receiving SOC with chemotherapy followed by niraparib maintenance. This comparison will be investigated in participants of newly diagnosed stage III or IV advanced non-mucinous epithelial ovarian cancer participants and also to compare PFS of all participants with Stage III or IV high-grade non-mucinous epithelial ovarian cancer treated with platinum-based combination therapy, dostarlimab (TSR-042), and niraparib to SOC platinum-based combination therapy. The currently recommended SOC therapy for the first line treatment of Stage III or IV ovarian cancer is the combination of paclitaxel and carboplatin, with or without concurrent and maintenance bevacizumab. Participants will receive SOC during the chemotherapy Run-In period (cycle 1) before randomization to study treatment (cycle 2). Concurrent bevacizumab use must be determined prior to randomization at cycle 2.

• Participants of childbearing potential must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test (beta human chorionic gonadotropin) within 3 days prior to receiving the first dose of study treatment.
• Participants must be postmenopausal, free from menses for >1 year, surgically sterilized, or willing to use highly effective contraception to prevent pregnancy or must agree to abstain from activities that could result in pregnancy throughout the study, starting with enrollment through 180 days after the last dose of study treatment.

• Participants must have an ECOG score of 0 or 1.
• Participants must have normal blood pressure (BP) or adequately treated and controlled hypertension (systolic BP <=140 millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and/or diastolic BP <=90 mmHg).
• Participants must agree to complete health related quality of life (HRQoL) questionnaires throughout the study.
• Participants must be able to take oral medication.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Participant has mucinous, germ cell, transitional cell, or undifferentiated tumor.
• Participant has low-grade or Grade 1 epithelial ovarian cancer.
• Participant has not adequately recovered from prior major surgery.
• Participant is pregnant or is expecting to conceive children while receiving study drug or for up to 180 days after the last dose of study drug. Participant is breastfeeding or is expecting to breastfeed within 30 days of receiving the final dose of study drug (women should not breastfeed or store breastmilk for use, during niraparib treatment and for 30 days after receiving the final dose of study treatment).
• Participant has known active central nervous system metastases, carcinomatous meningitis, or both.
• Participant has clinically significant cardiovascular disease.
• Participant has a bowel obstruction by clinical symptoms or computed tomography (CT) scan, subocclusive mesenteric disease, abdominal or gastrointestinal fistula, gastrointestinal perforation, or intra-abdominal abscess.
• Participant has any known history or current diagnosis of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
• Participant has been diagnosed and/or treated with any therapy for invasive cancer <5 years from study enrollment, completed adjuvant chemotherapy and/or targeted therapy (example, trastuzumab) less than 3 years from enrollment, or completed adjuvant hormonal therapy less than 4 weeks from enrollment.
• Participants with definitively treated non-invasive malignancies such as cervical carcinoma in situ, ductal carcinoma in situ, Grade 1 or 2, Stage I endometrial cancer, or non-melanomatous skin cancer are allowed.
• Participant is at increased bleeding risk due to concurrent conditions (example, major injuries or major surgery within the past 28 days prior to start of study treatment and/or history of hemorrhagic stroke, transient ischemic attack, subarachnoid hemorrhage, or clinically significant hemorrhage within the past 3 months).
• Participant is immunocompromised.
• Participant has known active hepatitis B (example, hepatitis B surface antigen reactive) or hepatitis C (example, hepatitis C virus ribonucleic acid [qualitative] is detected).
• Participant is considered a poor medical risk due to a serious, uncontrolled medical disorder, non-malignant systemic disease, or uncontrolled infection.
