Extended-Release Onapristone in Treating Patients with Progesterone Receptor Positive Recurrent Ovarian, Primary Peritoneal, or Endometrial Cancer
Inclusion Criteria
- Histologically confirmed diagnosis at Memorial Sloan Kettering (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 immunohistochemistry (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 >= 10 mm when measured by computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Lymph nodes must be >= 15 mm 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
- 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
- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) >= 1,000/mcL (performed within 14 days prior to initiation of study drug)
- Platelets >= 75,000/mcL (performed within 14 days prior to initiation of study drug)
- Hemoglobin >= 8 g/dL (performed within 14 days prior to initiation of study drug)
- Creatinine =< 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN) (performed within 14 days prior to initiation of study drug)
- Bilirubin =< 1.5 x ULN (performed within 14 days prior to initiation of study drug)
- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) =< 2.5 x ULN (performed within 14 days prior to initiation of study drug)
- Resolution of all acute toxic effects of prior therapy to National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (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., megestrol acetate, tamoxifen or aromatase inhibitors) for treatment cancer within the 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 intravenous (IV) corticosteroid within the prior 28 days and requires chronic corticosteroid therapy (excludes use of steroid premeds for CT allergy)
- Uncontrolled hypertension (systolic blood pressure [BP] >= 160 mmHg or diastolic BP >= 95 mmHg) 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

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To evaluate the efficacy, in terms of response rate (complete response [CR] or partial response [PR]) of onapristone extended-release (ER), as determined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1 response within 36 weeks of treatment, in patients with progesterone receptor (PR)+ recurrent or advanced granulosa cell tumor, low grade serous ovarian cancer, or endometrioid endometrial cancer.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of onapristone ER in this patient population.
II. To evaluate the duration of response, clinical benefit rate (CR, PR, stable disease [SD] lasting for >= 16 weeks) and progression free survival (PFS) of patients with PR+ recurrent or advanced low grade serous ovarian cancer, granulosa cell tumor or endometrioid endometrial cancer treated with onapristone ER.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
I. To correlate the level of PR positivity (as a continuous variable) with response to therapy (defined as complete or partial response) with onapristone ER.
II. To correlate the level of phosphorylated PR (as a continuous variable) with response to therapy with onapristone ER.
III. To correlate the level of PR target gene expression (as a continuous variable) with response to therapy (defined as complete or partial response) with onapristone ER.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive extended-release onapristone orally (PO) twice daily (BID) on days 1-28. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days and then every 3 months thereafter.
