Co-administration of focal RT and an immune checkpoint-inhibiting agent may overcome immune-suppressive signals and potentiate systemic responses. A phase I study is underway to assess the safety of RT combined with PD-L1 inhibition in patients with recurrent epithelial ovarian/fallopian tube/peritoneal carcinomas (OV). Methods: Women with platinum resistant epithelial OV, ECOG PS 0/1 and ≤ 2 lines of treatment in the platinum-resistant setting are eligible. 1 lesion evaluable by RECIST criteria (v 1.1) and 2 additional lesions suitable for RT (minimal treatment volume 4cc) are required. Pre- and on-treatment biopsies for correlative studies are mandatory. The primary objectives are to assess the safety and tolerability of the focal RT combined with the immune checkpoint inhibitor, durvalumab (D), as defined by dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), and to define the maximum tolerated RT dose and treatment schedule. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the clinical activity of focal RT and D [RECIST (v 1.1), GCIG CA-125, and immune-related response criteria], progression free survival and overall survival. D 1500 mg delivered intravenously every 28 days = one cycle. RT to the 2 selected target lesions is delivered 24-36 hours prior to the infusion of D. The RT starting dose-level is 24Gy (in 4 fractions) per lesion (given Days -1, 1 and 28 of Cycle 1 and Day 1 of Cycle 2). A 3+3+3 design will permit more extensive exploration of toxicity if DLTs are observed (Table). Investigator assessed DLTs are defined by CTCAE v. 4.03 and include the following: any grade ≥3 adverse event suspected to be related to D or RT (necrosis or recall reactions at previously irradiated sites, RT induced bowel perforation, any unexpected grade 3 or greater toxicity at the site of RT), any grade ≥2 allergic or autoimmune event that involves vital organ function, and any other grade 3 allergic or autoimmune events that do not resolve to grade 1 before the next scheduled dose of D. Treatment may continue up to 12 months. Enrollment began August 2018. To date, no DLTs have been observed at dose level 1 (n= 3) and enrollment is ongoing.
