This is a phase II randomized study of Sacituzumab tirumotecan, an intravenous antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that targets Trop-1, administered alone or in combination with pembrolizumab, a monoclonal antibody to PD-1 in patients with relapsed clear cell cancers that originated in the ovary, fallopian tube or peritoneal cavity, inclusive of endometriosis (collectively referred to as OCCC throughout the protocol) after previous treatment with anti-PD1 therapy.
Inclusion Criteria:
Type of Participant and Disease Characteristics
Has a histologically-confirmed diagnosis of pure OCCC. Patients with mixed histologies that include a clear cell component will not be eligible for this trial.
Has measurable disease per RECIST 1.1 as assessed by the local site investigator/ radiology. Lesions situated in a previously-irradiated area are considered measurable if progression has been shown in such lesions.
Patients must have received at least one prior platinum and taxane based chemotherapy regimen. Radiation therapy (including the use of chemotherapy as a radiosensitizer) will not count as a prior systemic regimen.
Patients must have also received one prior line containing an immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) More than one prior line of ICI treatment will be exclusionary.
Participants with known brain metastases are excluded from this clinical trial because of their poor prognosis and because they often develop progressive neurologic dysfunction that would confound the evaluation of neurologic and other adverse events.
ECOG performance status 0-1
Is an individual of assigned female sex at birth and is at least 18 years of age at the time of providing the informed consent.
Participant is not pregnant or breastfeeding, and at least one of the following conditions applies:
Is not a Person of Child-Bearing Potential (POCBP) OR
Is a POCBP and:
- Agrees to use of a contraceptive method that is highly effective (with a failure rate of <1% per year), with low user dependency, or is abstinent from penile-vaginal intercourse as their preferred and usual lifestyle (abstinent on a long-term and persistent basis), as described in Appendix 5 during the intervention period and for at least the time needed to eliminate the study intervention after the last dose of study intervention. The participant agrees not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) to others or freeze/store eggs during this period for the purpose of reproduction. The length of time required to continue contraception for Sacituzumab tirumotecan is 210 days.
◦ sacituzumab tirumotecan: 210 days
- The investigator should evaluate the potential for contraceptive method failure (i.e., noncompliance, recently initiated) in relationship to the first dose of study intervention. Contraceptive use by POCBPs should be consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for those participating in clinical studies. If the contraception requirements in the local label for any of the study interventions are more stringent than the requirements above, the local label requirements are to be followed.
Informed Consent 8. The participant (or legally acceptable representative if applicable) provides written informed consent for the study.
Additional Categories 9. Has provided an archival tumor tissue sample (slides or block) for pathologic confirmation of diagnosis at Tufts Medical Center.
10. Participants who have AEs due to previous anticancer therapies must have recovered to Grade ≤1 or baseline (except for alopecia and vitiligo). Participants with endocrine-related AEs who are adequately treated with hormone replacement therapy are eligible.
11. Adequate organ function as defined in the following table (Table 3). Specimens must be collected within 10 days before the start of study intervention.
12. Any other medical condition that will prevent the safe administration of study drugs in the opinion of the treating physician.
13. Be willing and able to comply with study procedures, laboratory tests, and other requirements of the study.
14. HIV-infected participants must have well-controlled HIV on ART, defined as:
HIV testing at screening is not otherwise required. 15. Participants who are HBsAg positive are eligible if they have received HBV antiviral therapy for at least 4 weeks and have undetectable HBV viral load before randomization.
Note: Participants should remain on antiviral therapy throughout study intervention and follow local guidelines for HBV antiviral therapy post completion of study intervention.
Hepatitis B testing at screening is not required unless:
Note: Participants must have completed curative antiviral therapy at least 4 weeks before randomization.
Hepatitis C testing at screening is not required unless:

History of stem cell/solid organ transplant. Prior/Concomitant Therapy
Received prior treatment with a TROP2-targeted ADC.
Received prior treatment with a topoisomerase 1 inhibitor-containing ADC.
Received prior systemic anticancer therapy within 2 weeks before the first dose of study intervention.
Received prior radiotherapy within 2 weeks before the first dose of study intervention, has radiation-related toxicities, requiring corticosteroids, and/or has radiation pneumonitis.
Note: Two weeks or fewer of palliative radiotherapy for non-CNS disease is permitted. The last radiotherapy treatment must have been performed at least 7 days before the first dose of study intervention.
Received a live or live-attenuated vaccine within 30 days before the first dose of study intervention. Administration of killed vaccines are allowed.
Refer to Section 6.2 for information on COVID-19 vaccines.
Is currently receiving a strong inducer/inhibitor of CYP3A4 that cannot be discontinued for the duration of treatment with study intervention. The required washout period before starting study intervention is 2 weeks.
Note: A list of strong inducers/inhibitors of CYP3A4 can be found at the following website: https://www.fda.gov/drugs/drug-interactions-labeling/drug-development-and-drug-interactions-table-substrates-inhibitors-and-inducers. Please note that this list is not exhaustive and that investigators should review the locally-approved label for all concomitant therapy to ensure it is not a strong inducer/inhibitor of CYP3A4.
Prior/Concurrent Clinical Study Experience
Is currently enrolled on another therapeutic clinical trial. Concurrent enrollment on another therapeutic clinical trial or any trial designed to impact the efficacy of anti-cancer therapy is prohibited.
Has received an investigational agent or has used an investigational device within 4 weeks before the first dose of study intervention.

History or current evidence of any condition, therapy, laboratory abnormality, or other circumstance that might confound the results of the study or interfere with the participant's ability to cooperate with the requirements of the study, such that it is not in the best interest of the participant to participate, in the opinion of the treating investigator.
