Mirvetuximab soravtansine (MIRV) is a first-in-class antibody drug conjugate (ADC) comprising a folate receptor alpha (FRα)-binding antibody, cleavable linker, and the maytansinoid payload DM4, a potent tubulin-targeting agent that has demonstrated significant anti-tumor activity in this difficult to treat population. The objective is to characterize the tolerability profile of MIRV in a pooled analysis of experience when administered as monotherapy in patients (pts) with FRα positive recurrent ovarian cancer. Methods: Retrospective pooled analysis included pts enrolled across three studies: phase 1 first-in-human, phase 3 FORWARD I, and phase 3 SORAYA. Analysis included pts with FRα positive recurrent ovarian cancer and those pts with low, medium, and high FRα expression by immunohistochemistry (Roche FOLR1 Assay ≥ 25% of cells with PS2+ staining intensity). All pts received intravenous MIRV at 6 mg/kg, adjusted ideal body weight, on Day 1 of a 21-day cycle until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Results: 464 pts were included from 15 countries, with key characteristics: median age 63 yrs, 87% 1-3 prior therapies, 91% platinum free interval ≤6 months, 65% prior bevacizumab, and 25% prior PARPi. The most common treatment-related adverse events (TRAE) (all grade, grade 3+) included blurred vision (42%, 3%), nausea (40%, 2%), diarrhea (33%, 2%), fatigue (31%, 2%), keratopathy (26%, 3%), and dry eye (22%, 1%). TRAEs leading to a dose delay or reduction occurred in 33% and 21% of pts, respectively. Seven % discontinued due to a TRAE. Four pts ( < 1%) discontinued MIRV due to an ocular event. Ninety % of pts with a grade 2+ blurred vision resolved to grade 0 or 1, 93% of pts with grade 2+ keratopathy resolved to grade 0 or 1. No corneal ulcers or perforation have been reported and no patient with a serious ocular event has been reported to have permanent sequelae. Conclusions: In a pooled analysis of 464 patients, MIRV monotherapy has a differentiated and predictable safety profile consisting primarily of low grade and reversible gastrointestinal and ocular events. These events were managed with supportive care and dose modifications if needed, with a low rate of treatment-related discontinuation. The safety profile of MIRV in recurrent ovarian cancer along with the anti-tumor activity in PROC (32.4% ORR Matulonis SGO 2022) support a favorable benefit/risk in this population.
