Background summary
Carcinoma of the uterine body is often referred to as EC because the vast
majority of cases (~92%) occur in the endometrium (inner wall of the uterus). A
majority of EC cases are identified at an early stage with a 5-year survival
rate of 94.9% for localized EC. However, despite early detection, approximately
13% of all ECs recur. Women diagnosed with non-specific (ie, regardless of
MMR/MSI status) advanced or recurrent EC have a poor prognosis, with a 5-year
survival rate of 17% when treated with chemotherapy.
Standard of care is platinum-based chemotherapy with Q3W carboplatin/paclitaxel
(TC). This is the most frequently used regimen based on efficacy and hasa
lower toxicity compared to cisplatin/doxorubicin/paclitaxel (TAC).
Approximately 24% of EC is MSI-H/dMMR. Previous research indicated worst OS and
RFS are associated with the dMMR-subtype compared to other subgroups, with the
exeption of p53. In addition, adjuvant chemotherapy combined with radiotherapy
did not result in a significant therapeutic advantage in this subgroup.
The efficacy of pembrolizumab used in treatment of advanced solid malignancies
is well determined and there are enough indications that pembrolizumab leads to
significantly longer PFS in MSI-H/dMMR cancertypes (KEYNOTE-158 and
KEYNOTE-177). In addition, pembrolizumab is generally tolerated well and has an
acceptable clinical safety profile (fewer AEs). Therefore, this treatment might
be of added value in the unmet treatment need for this indication.
Study objective
This study has been transitioned to CTIS with ID 2023-506361-56-00 check the CTIS register for the current data.
This study is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of pembrolizumab
monotherapy compared with SoC platinum doublet chemotherapy for first-line
treatment of participants with dMMR advanced or recurrent EC. The primary
objectives are to compare pembrolizumab to
chemotherapy with respect to PFS and OS. Hypothesis: pembrolizumab is superior
to chemotherapy on both area's.
Secondary objectives are comparing both treatment groups on:
1. ORR
2. DCR
3. DOR
4. PFS-PFS2
5. Safety & tolerability
6. Quality of life & functioning
Study design
This is a randomized, unblinded open-label controlled, multicenter, phase
3-study of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in participants with dMMR advanced or
recurrent EC in the First-line setting.
Subjects will be randomized in 1 of the 2 treatment groups :
Group 1: 18 cycles of pembrolizumab (Q6W) mono-therapy.
Group 2: 6 cycles of chemotherapy (Carboplatin/paclitaxel or
cisplatin/docetaxel in case if intolerance) (Q3W).
Cross-over for group 2 is allowed, where subjects might be eligible for 18
cycles of pembrolizumab. Subjects in group 1 or cross-over may be eligible for
second course treatment of 9 cycles (~1 year) of pembrolizumab.
Intervention
Group 1:
- Pembrolizumab 400mg; Q6W; IV-infusion; 18 cycles
Group 2:
- Carboplatin AUC (area under the concentration-time curve;) 5 of 6; Q3W;
IV-infusion; 6 cycles
OR
- Cisplatin 75mg/m2; Q3W; IV-infusion; 6 cycles
- Paclitaxel 175 mg/m2; Q3W; IV-infusion; 6 cycles
OR
- Docetaxel 75mg/m2; Q3W;IV-infusion; 6 cycles
(In case of intolerance carboplatin can be replaced by cisplatine, and
paclitaxel can be replaced by docetaxel)
Study burden and risks
For this study, patients will be exposed to invasive procedures such as biopsy,
blood collection, IV infusions, CT-MRI or bone scans, physical exams, possible
confrontational questionnaires about quality of life, and patients will be
asked to visit the hospital regularly. Patients will receive immune therapy or
chemotherapy in six-week or three-week cycles. It cannot be guaranteed that
participants in clinical studies will directly benefit from study intervention
during participation, as clinical studies are designed to provide information
about the safety and effectiveness of an investigational medicine.
Pembrolizumab has been administered in a large number of oncology patients (
different indications) with a known safety profile. It has been approved for
treatment of different types of cancer. Overall, pembrolizumab is well
tolerated and has demonstrated clinical anti tumor activity and efficacy in
different types of cancer.

Inclusion criteria
1.Has a histologically confirmed diagnosis of inoperable Stage III/IV
persistent or recurrent EC or carcinosarcoma (mixed Mullerian tumor) that is
centrally confirmed as dMMR. 2.Has radiographically evaluable disease, either

Prior Therapy 3.Has received no prior systemic therapy for EC except as noted
below: * May have received 1 prior line of systemic platinum-based adjuvant
and/or neoadjuvant chemotherapy in the setting of curative-intent resection if
the recurrence occurred =6 months after the last dose of chemotherapy. * May
have received prior radiation with or without radiosensitizing chemotherapy if
>2 weeks before the start of study intervention * May have received prior

prior to randomization 4.Is female, at least 18 years of age at the time of
providing the informed consent (either Authorization for Release of Tumor
Tissue or main study consent). 5.Has ECOG performance status of 0 or 1 within 7
days before randomization. 6.A female participant is eligible to participate if
she is not pregnant or breastfeeding, and at least one of the following
conditions applies: -Is not a WOCBP OR -Is a WOCBP and using a contraceptive
method that is highly effective (with a failure rate of <1% per year), with low
user dependency, or be abstinent from heterosexual intercourse as their
preferred and usual lifestyle (abstinent on a long-term and persistent basis)
during the intervention period and for at least the time needed to eliminate
each study intervention after the last dose of study intervention and agrees
not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) to others or freeze/store for her own use for
the purpose of reproduction during this period. The length of time required to
continue contraception for each study intervention is as follows: -
Pembrolizumab (120 days after last dose) - Chemotherapy (180 days after last
dose) The investigator should evaluate the potential for contraceptive method
failure in relationship to the first dose of study intervention. A WOCBP must
have a negative highly sensitive pregnancy test (urine or serum) as required by
local regulations) within 24 hours for urine or 72 hours for serum before the
first dose of study intervention. If a urine test cannot be confirmed as
negative, a serum pregnancy test is required. In such cases, the participant
must be excluded from participation if the serum pregnancy result is positive.
Additional requirements for pregnancy testing during and after study
intervention must adhere to protocol. Abstains from breastfeeding during the
study intervention period and for at least 120 days after the last dose of
pembrolizumab, 30 days after the last dose of cytotoxic chemotherapy agents
(paclitaxel, docetaxel, carboplatin, cisplatin), or as per local regulations.
The investigator is responsible for review of medical history, menstrual
history, and recent sexual activity to decrease the risk for inclusion of a
woman with an early undetected pregnancy. Contraceptive use by women should be
consistent with local regulations regarding the methods of contraception for
those participating in clinical studies. If the contraception requirements in
the local label for any of the study interventions is more stringent than the
requirements above, the local label requirements are to be followed. 7.The
participant (or legally acceptable representative) has provided documented
informed consent/assent for the study. The participant may also provide
consent/assent for FBR. However, the participant may participate in the study
