Background: ARTISTRY-7 will evaluate the novel engineered cytokine nemvaleukin alfa (nemvaleukin, ALKS 4230) in pts with gynecologic cancers. Epithelial ovarian cancer (OC) is the 7th most common cause of cancer mortality in women. OC is an area of high unmet need, as many pts become resistant or refractory to frontline platinum-based chemotherapy. Nemvaleukin was designed to selectively bind to the intermediate-affinity interleukin-2 (IL-2) receptor, preferentially activating and expanding antitumor CD8+ T and NK cells with minimal expansion of Tregs. This selectivity may provide enhanced tumor killing and improved safety/tolerability compared with high-dose IL-2. In clinical studies, nemvaleukin, as monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab, has shown evidence of clinical benefit in multiple tumor types, including OC. In ARTISTRY-1, 4 responses were observed in pts with OC, including 2 complete responses, 1 in a pt with platinum-resistant OC and 5 prior lines of therapy, and 2 partial responses. Methods: ARTISTRY-7 is a phase 3, multicenter, open-label randomized study of nemvaleukin and/or pembrolizumab vs chemotherapy. Eligible pts are women (≥18 y) with histologically confirmed epithelial OC (high-grade serous, endometrioid, clear cell), fallopian tube cancer, or primary peritoneal cancer. Pts must have received ≥1 prior line of systemic therapy in the platinum-sensitive setting, ≤5 prior lines in the platinum-resistant setting, and prior bevacizumab, with radiographic progression on most recent therapy. Primary platinum-refractory disease (progression on first-line platinum therapy) or primary platinum resistance (progression < 3 months after completion of first-line platinum therapy) is exclusionary. Pts must have ECOG performance status of 0 or 1, estimated life expectancy of ≥3 months, and adequate hematologic reserve and hepatic and renal function. Approximately 376 pts will be randomized (3:1:1:3) to receive nemvaleukin 6 μg/kg IV on days 1-5 and pembrolizumab 200 mg IV on day 1 of each 21-day cycle, pembrolizumab monotherapy, nemvaleukin monotherapy, or chemotherapy (pegylated liposomal doxorubicin, paclitaxel, topotecan, or gemcitabine) and stratified according to PD-L1 status, histologic subtype (high-grade vs non–high-grade serous), and chemotherapy (paclitaxel vs other). Pts will continue treatment until disease progression or intolerable toxicity (maximum 35 cycles for pembrolizumab; nemvaleukin can be continued). The primary endpoint is investigator-assessed PFS (RECIST v1.1) in the nemvaleukin/pembrolizumab vs chemotherapy group. Secondary/exploratory endpoints include overall survival, other antitumor measures, safety, health-related quality of life, and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic effects. Clinical trial information: NCT05092360.
