Inclusion Criteria
  • Histologically confirmed diagnosis at MSK of either (1) granulosa cell ovarian cancer, (2) low grade serous ovarian/ primary peritoneal cancer, or (3) endometrioid endometrial cancer; with PR expression ≥1% by IHC on archival tissue taken within the prior 3 years or new biopsy if no archival tissue is available. IHC results do not have to be from MSK.

  • Measurable disease as defined by RECIST 1.1. Measurable disease is defined as at least one lesion that can be accurately measured in at least one dimension. Each lesion must be ≥10mm when measured by CT or MRI. Lymph nodes must be ≥15mm in short axis when measured by CT or MRI

  • Patients must have had one prior chemotherapy regimen for management of disease. Note: additional lines of chemotherapy, biologic or immunotherapy are allowed.

  • Recovery from effects of recent surgery, radiotherapy, or chemotherapy

  • At least 4 weeks out from their last dose of radiation therapy

  • At least 4 weeks post-op from any major surgical procedure

  • At least 3 weeks out from their last dose of chemotherapy and/or biologic/targeted therapy

  • Must be ≥ 18 years of age

  • Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) of ≥ 70%

  • Women of child-bearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test within 14 days prior to commencement of study treatment

  • Women of child bearing potential must use an effective form of contraception during study and for at least 6 months after completion of study treatment

  • Laboratory Test Findings performed within 14 days prior to initiation of study drug showing:

  • Bone marrow function:

    • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,000/mcL
    • Platelets ≥ 75,000/mcL
    • Hemoglobin ≥ 8 g/dL
  • Renal function:

    °Creatinine ≤ 1.5 x ULN

  • Hepatic function:

    • Bilirubin ≤ 1.5 x ULN
    • AST and ALT ≤ 2.5 x ULN
  • Resolution of all acute toxic effects of prior therapy to NCI CTCAE (Version 5.0) Grade ≤ 1, with the exception of unresolved Grade 2 neuropathy and Grade 2 alopecia, which are allowed

  • Patient has recovered from any prior radiotherapy

  • Patients must be able to swallow tablets whole, without crushing

Exclusion Criteria
  • History of another invasive malignancy (other than non-melanoma skin cancer or curatively treated in situ carcinoma) with evidence of disease within the past 3 years
  • History of prior hormonal therapy (i.e., megesterol acetate, tamoxifen or aromatase inhibitors) for treatment of cancer within 28 days before starting study drug
  • Any psychological, familial, sociological or geographic condition that would potentially hamper compliance with the study protocol
  • Known brain metastasis which have not been treated or showed stability for ≥ 6 months
  • Patient has received an oral or IV corticosteroid within the prior 28 days and requires chronic corticosteroid therapy (excludes use of steroid premeds for CT allergy)
  • Uncontrolled hypertension (systolic BP ≥ 160 mmHg or diastolic BP ≥ 95mmHg) despite medical treatment. Patients with a history of hypertension are allowed provided blood pressure is controlled by anti-hypertensive treatment.
  • Clinically significant heart disease as evidenced by myocardial infarction or arterial thrombotic event within the past 6 months, severe or unstable angina, or New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II-IV heart disease or cardiac ejection fraction measurement of < 50% at baseline
  • Refractory nausea and vomiting, requirement for parenteral hydration and/or nutrition, drainage gastrostomy tube, malabsorption, external biliary shunt, or significant small bowel resection that would preclude adequate study drug absorption
  • Anticipated or ongoing administration of anti-cancer therapies other than those administered in this study
  • Use of any prescription medication during the prior 28 days of first onapristone dosing that the investigator judges is likely to interfere with onapristone activity; specifically strong inhibitors or inducers, or sensitive substrates of cytochrome P450 CYP3A4. Investigators should consult the following table of clinically-relevant products http://medicine.iupui.edu/CLINPHARM/ddis/clinical-table.
