Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the biologically active dose of entinostat, when given in combination with avelumab, that is safe and warrants further investigation. Additionally, this study will evaluate the effectiveness of entinostat in combination with avelumab at the determined dose in terms of progression free survival compared to avelumab plus placebo in participants with refractory or recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer.

Primary Outcome

PFS was defined as the number of months from randomization to progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause, whichever occurred first. PD: At least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 millimeters (mm); the appearance of one or more new lesions; and unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions.

Interventions

  • DRUG Placebo
