New drug aims to outsmart Chemotherapy-Resistant ovarian cancer

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Prior treatment with irinotecan, topotecan, any other topoisomerase I inhibitor (including investigational TOP1 inhibitors), or topoisomerase inhibitor-antibody drug conjugate (e.g., trastuzumab deruxtecan, etc.). 4. Patients for whom paclitaxel, topotecan, and pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (as listed in the control group) are all considered inappropriate by the investigator. 5. History of severe cardiac or cerebrovascular disease, including but not limited to: heart failure ≥ New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class 2; acute coronary syndrome (e.g., myocardial infarction, unstable angina, etc.) within 6 months prior to screening; acute cerebrovascular disease (e.g., transient ischemic attack, cerebral infarction, cerebral hemorrhage, etc.) within 6 months prior to screening. 6. Mean corrected QT interval using the Fridericia formula (QTcF) \> 470 milliseconds (ms) based on the results of three 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) examinations; history of serious cardiac arrhythmia (e.g., complete left bundle branch block, third-degree atrioventricular block, atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, ventricular fibrillation, ventricular flutter, etc.), excluding transient atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter. 7. Unable or unwilling to discontinue concomitant medications known to prolong the QT interval. 8. A history of or current interstitial lung disease (ILD) requiring glucocorticoid treatment, non-infectious interstitial pneumonia, pulmonary fibrosis, and radiation pneumonitis requiring hormone treatment, or suspected of having such diseases by imaging examination at the time of screening. 9. A history of underlying lung diseases, including but not limited to pulmonary embolism within 3 months prior to the start of study treatment, severe asthma, severe COPD, restrictive lung disease, and other clinically significant lung damage or requiring supplementary oxygen. 10. Patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis (those who have received adequate treatment and stopped anti-tuberculosis treatment for ≥ 3 months before randomization may be enrolled). 11. Any autoimmune disease, connective tissue disease, or inflammatory disease involving the lungs that is recorded or suspected at the time of screening (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren's syndrome, sarcoidosis, etc.). 12. Unstable thrombotic events requiring therapeutic intervention within 6 months prior to screening, such as deep vein thrombosis, arterial thrombosis, and pulmonary embolism (patients with stable lower extremity deep vein thrombosis, intermuscular venous thrombosis, or infusion-related thrombosis that are judged to be risk-free by the investigator may be included). 13. Presence of uncontrolled infection requiring intravenous antibiotics, antiviral drugs, or antifungal drugs. 14. Known human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, or current active syphilis infection (i.e., positive treponema pallidum antibody (RPR or TRUST) or requiring systemic treatment). 15. Participants with active viral hepatitis (positive hepatitis B surface antigen and/or positive hepatitis B core antibody with HBV DNA ≥ 10000 copies/ml or 2000 IU/ml; positive hepatitis C virus (HCV) with HCV RNA above the lower limit of detection by the analytical method). 16. Presence of spinal cord compression or clinically active brain metastasis or meningeal metastasis. Participants with central nervous system metastases who have received prior central nervous system-directed therapy and have been radiologically and neurologically stable within 4 weeks before the first dose \[i.e., imaging shows no new or enlarged metastatic lesions, no need for corticosteroid treatment or taking a stable or decreasing dose of corticosteroids (equivalent to ≤ 10 mg/day prednisone), and no symptoms\] are eligible to enter the study. Untreated central nervous system metastases may be enrolled if the following conditions are met: no neurological symptoms, no need for surgery, radiotherapy, or corticosteroid treatment, and no obvious edema around the brain metastases. 17.

Moderate or above pleural effusion, pericardial effusion, or ascites; if effusion drainage is performed (except for diagnostic thoracentesis), participants who have been stable for at least 2 weeks after drainage may be enrolled. 19. Presence of fistula diseases and perforation diseases such as genital fistula, genitourinary fistula, and enterovaginal fistula (if the perforation or fistula has been treated by resection or repair and the disease has recovered, enrollment is allowed). 20. Presence of intestinal obstruction, or signs and symptoms of intestinal obstruction, or requiring parenteral nutrition within 1 month prior to the start of study treatment; however, screening may be performed if surgical treatment has been performed and the obstruction is completely relieved; prior intestinal stent implantation with the intestinal stent still not removed by the screening period; gastrointestinal bleeding (including melena, hematochezia, etc.) within 1 month prior to randomization (those confirmed to have hemorrhoidal bleeding or only positive fecal occult blood may be enrolled); presence of abdominal abscess within 1 month prior to randomization. 21. Subjects who have received systemic administration of strong inhibitors or strong inducers of CYP3A4 and CYP2C8, or inhibitors of OATP1B1/OATP1B3 within 14 days prior to the first dose of study drug, or those who require continuous systemic use of such medicinal products during the study period. 22.

Have a history of drug abuse, or have any other medical conditions that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may increase the safety risk to the participant, or interfere with the participant's enrollment in and completion of the clinical study, or confound the evaluation of the study results. 26. Subjects planning to receive live vaccines or vaccinated with live vaccines within 28 days before the first dose of study drug. 27. Subjects with other severe physical conditions, clinically significant laboratory abnormalities, or poor treatment compliance, who may increase the risks of study participation, interfere with study outcomes, or are otherwise considered unsuitable for enrollment in this study by the Investigator.
