Phase 2
Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Low Grade Ovarian Serous Adenocarcinoma
Ovarian Cancer
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT04625270
Lead Sponsor
Verastem, Inc.
Brief Summary

This study will assess the safety and efficacy of avutometinib (VS-6766) monotherapy and in combination with defactinib in subjects with recurrent Low-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer (LGSOC)

Detailed Description

This is a multicenter, randomized, open-label Phase 2 study designed to evaluate safety and tolerability and preliminary efficacy of avutometinib (VS-6766) versus avutometinib (VS-6766) in combination with defactinib in subjects with molecularly profiled recurrent LGSOC.
