Ovarian Cancer: Understanding
Ovarian Cancer: Overview
Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death in women diagnosed with gynecological cancers. It is also the fifth most frequent cause of death in women, in general. Most of the cases are diagnosed at an advanced stage, which leads to poor outcomes of this disease. The existing screening tests have a low predictive value contributing further to this misery. Detailed gynecological evaluation along with transvaginal ultrasound and laboratory marker like cancer antigen-125 (CA-125) assay are the key early detection strategies which have shown no significant beneficial effect in the morbidity or mortality of this cancer.
The four most common histological types of epithelial ovarian cancer are serous, endometrioid, clear cell, and mucinous tumor. They have further subtypes based on their peculiar biology and treatment responses. The uncommon subtypes are Brenner and seromucinous.
Ovarian cancer can be further classified into two subtypes- Type I or Type II tumors, the latter being a more fatal variant, thought to be caused by continuous ovarian cycles leading to inflammation and endometriosis. Type I tumor includes low-grade serous, endometrioid, clear-cell, and mucinous carcinomas, with the rare subtypes being seromucinous and Brenner tumors. Type I tumors mostly arise from atypical proliferative (borderline) tumors. Type II tumors include high-grade serous carcinoma, carcinosarcoma, and undifferentiated carcinoma, which mainly originate from serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma. Type I tumors usually present at an early stage and are low grade except for clear cell, which is considered high grade. Their proliferative activity is usually low. They are diagnosed early and carry a good prognosis. In comparison, Type II tumors are high-grade tumors and almost always of advanced stage. They have high proliferative activity with rapid and aggressive progression and a high degree of chromosomal instability compared to type I with the presence of p53 mutations in most of the cases.
The standard line of care treatment includes surgery and platinum-based chemotherapy; however, anti-angiogenic bevacizumab and Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors have gained momentum in the management of this gynecological malignancy in the past decade. A high rate of recurrence following the initial treatment has been observed. Most of these relapsed cases are less curable and known to have an increased incidence of treatment failures. Hence, effective prevention and detection strategies and new treatment modalities based on a better understanding of molecular characterization of this cancer are the need of the hour.

Ovarian Cancer Emerging Drugs Chapters
This segment of the Ovarian Cancer report encloses its detailed analysis of various drugs in different stages of clinical development, including phase II, I, preclinical and Discovery. It also helps to understand clinical trial details, expressive pharmacological action, agreements and collaborations, and the latest news and press releases.
Ovarian Cancer Emerging Drugs
Atezolizumab is a humanized kappa immunoglobulin (Ig) G1 monoclonal antibody consisting of two heavy chains (448 amino acids) and two light chains (214 amino acids) and is produced in Chinese hamster ovary cells. Atezolizumab was engineered to eliminate Fc-effector function via a single amino acid substitution (asparagine to alanine) at position 298 on the heavy chain, which results in a non-glycosylated antibody that has minimal binding to Fc receptors and, consequently, eliminates detectable Fc-effector function and depletion of cells expressing programmed death−ligand 1 (PD-L1) in humans. Atezolizumab targets human PD-L1 and inhibits its interaction with its receptors, programmed death−1 (PD-1) and B7.1, both of which can provide inhibitory signals to T cells. The drug is currently in Phase III of clinical trials for the treatment of Ovarian Cancer.
- Tisotumab Vedotin: Genmab
Tisotumab vedotin, also known as HuMax-TF, HuMax®-TF-ADC or TF-011-MMAE, is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) targeted to tissue factor (TF), a protein involved in tumor signaling and angiogenesis. Tisotumab vedotin includes an antibody targeting TF conjugated with monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE) via a cleavable maleimidocaproyl-valyl-citrullinyl-p-aminobenzyloxycarbonyl (mc-val-cit-PABC) type linker. The drug is currently in the Phase II of clinical trials for the treatment of Ovarian Cancer.
- SON-1010: Sonnet Biotherapeutics
SON-1010 is a proprietary version of native human IL-12, configured using Sonnet's fully human albumin binding (FHAB®) platform, which targets the tumor microenvironment (TME) and extends the pharmacokinetics (PK) and subsequent pharmacodynamics (PD) of the molecule. Sonnet and Roche have entered into a Master Clinical Trial and Supply Agreement (MCSA), along with ancillary Quality and Safety Agreements, to study the safety and efficacy of the combination of SON-1010 and atezolizumab in a platinum-resistant ovarian cancer (PROC) patient setting. Currently the drug is in the Phase I/II stage of its development for the treatment of ovarian cancer.
- DS-6000a: Daiichi Sankyo Company
DS-6000a is an antibody-drug conjugate, comprised of an humanized anti-CDH6 IgG1 monoclonal antibody attached to a topoisomerase I (TOP1) inhibitor payload via a cleavable linker. DS-6000a specifically binds to CDH6 on the surface of tumor cells and is internalized upon binding. The payload is then released, resulting in target cell apoptosis. In preclinical studies, DS-6000a inhibited tumor growth and induced tumor regression in CDH6-expressing RCC and OVC. Currently the drug is in Phase I stage of Clinical trial evaluation for the treatment of Ovarian Cancer.
