E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Progression free-survival (PFS1). PFS1 is defined as the time from randomization until the date of the first objective radiological disease progression according to investigator assessment of RECIST version 1.1 or death (by any cause in the absence of progression) regardless of whether the patient withdraws from randomized study treatment or receives another anti-cancer therapy prior to progression |
|
E.5.1.1 | Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point |
496 events observed for the co-primary analysis. Patients who have not progressed or died at the time of analysis will be censored at the time of the latest date of assessment from their last evaluable RECIST assessment. |
|
E.5.2 | Secondary end point(s) |
Secondary objectives
1. To determine the efficacy of atezolizumab compared to placebo on: -As supportive secondary objectives: •Overall survival (OS) • Time from randomization to second subsequent therapy or death (TSST) • Health-related Quality of Life (HRQoL) and patient reported outcomes (PROs) as measured by EORTC QLQ-C30 and OV28 •Long term survival using the cure rate modelling
- As other secondary objectives: • Objective Response Rate (ORR) as assessed by RECIST v1.1 and irRECIST • PFS1 as assessed per irRECIST • Characterization of CA-125 tumor marker levels and their relation to tumor response and PFS1 as measured by RECISTv 1.1 and irRECIST • Time from randomization to first subsequent therapy or death (TFST) • Time from randomization to second progression (PFS2)
2. To determine the efficacy of atezolizumab compared to placebo in the PD-L1 negative and PD-L1 positive subgroups.
3. Progression-free survival and overall survival in the PD-L1/CD8 positive subpopulation (PD-L1 expression >= 1% and CD8 expression >= 1%).
4. To assess the safety and tolerability of atezolizumab compared to placebo
5. To evaluate the impact of treatment and disease on resource use as measured by different criteria including EuroQoL 5 Dimension (EQ-5D) questionnaire
6. To characterise atezolizumab PK in combination with bevacizumab and chemotherapy and to determine the incidence of ADAs.
Exploratory objectives 1. To explore pre-planned subgroups analyses of efficacy (PFS) based on relevant potential prognostic factors, including stratification factors, as well as on the performance or not of secondary cytoreductive surgery. 2. To explore the time to next severe toxicity (grade 4 neutropenia, lasting > 7 days, grade > 3 febrile neutropenia, grade 4 thrombocytopenia with bleeding or platelet Transfusion, grade > 3 non-hematological toxicity) in both arms. 3. To explore the correlation between geriatric assessment and efficacy and tolerancy of atezolizumab versus Placebo for patients >= 70 years old) 4. To evaluate the relationship between the expression of PD-L1, tumor mutational load and intraepithelial TILs with ORR and PFS during experimental treatment and at the subsequent line of therapy. 5. To assess immune-related and other potential predictive and prognostic exploratory biomarkers in de novo/archival tissue and blood and their association with disease status and/or efficacy as defined by ORR and PFS during experimental treatment and at the subsequent line of therapy . 6. To evaluate the relationship between PD-L1, TILs and biomarker status in archival tissue and in de novo tumor specimens. 7. To evaluate the utility of biopsy at the time of apparent disease progression to distinguish apparent increases in tumor volume related to immunomodulatory activity of atezolizumab (i.e., pseudoprogression/tumor immune infiltration) from true disease progression as determined by confirmatory CT scan for disease progression and PFS. 8. To explore whether resistance mechanisms to atezolizumab plus bevacizumab versus placebo plus bevacizumab alone can be identified through analysis of tumor and blood samples – archival tumor, de novo tumor biopsy and blood sample at baseline (mandatory), tumor biopsy and blood sample on progression (optional). 9. To collect and store ctDNA (according to each country’s local and ethical procedures) for future exploratory research into genes/genetic variation that may influence response (i.e., distribution, safety, tolerability and efficacy) to study treatments
