Can eye drops save sight during ovarian cancer treatment?
NCT ID NCT06365853
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 21, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This phase 2 trial tests whether different eye drops can prevent or reduce eye problems caused by the cancer drug mirvetuximab soravtansine in 100 people with recurrent ovarian cancer. Participants will receive the cancer drug along with either lubricating drops, steroid drops, or drops that shrink blood vessels. The goal is to find the best way to protect eyesight during treatment.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- mirvetuximab soravtansine (MIRV) with lubricating eye drops, corticosteroid eye drops, or brimonidine eye drops
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study could identify a way to prevent or reduce eye problems caused by mirvetuximab soravtansine, making treatment safer and more tolerable for ovarian cancer patients.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase study focused on side effects, not on curing cancer. The eye drop strategies may not work or could cause their own side effects.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Participants must have a confirmed diagnosis of epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancer (EOC) with high FRα expression. * Participant's tumor must be FRα positive (FRα high) as defined by either the VENTANA FOLR1 (FOLR-2.1) IUO Assay, or the VENTANA FOLR1 ( FOLR1-2.1) RxDx Assay (hereafter collectively termed VENTANA FOLR1 Assay) (≥ 75% cells exhibit ≥ 2+ membrane staining intensity). * Participants with known breast cancer susceptibility gene (BRCA) mutations (tumor or germline) must have received poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi). * Participants must have completed prior therapy within the specified times below: 1. Systemic antineoplastic therapy ≥ 5 half-lives or 4 weeks (whichever is shorter) before first dose of MIRV; 2. Focal radiation completed ≥ 2 weeks before the first dose of MIRV. * Participants must have stabilized or recovered (Grade 1 or baseline) from all prior therapy-related toxicities (except alopecia). * Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must agree to use highly effective contraceptive method(s) while on MIRV and for ≥ 7 months after the last dose; and must have a negative pregnancy test ≤ 4 days before the first dose of MIRV. Exclusion Criteria: * Participants with borderline ovarian tumor or non-epithelial histology or mixed histology including borderline or non-epithelial histology will be excluded. * PROC participants with primary platinum-refractory disease, defined as disease that did not respond to (complete response \[CR\] or partial response \[PR\]) or progressed within ≤ 3 months of the last dose of first line platinum-containing chemotherapy. * Participants with \> Grade 1 peripheral neuropathy per National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0 (NCI-CTCAE v5.0). * Participants with significant active or chronic corneal disorders (for example, corneal dystrophies, degenerations, limbal stem cell deficiency), history of corneal transplantation, significant ocular inflammatory conditions (for example, active or recurrent uveitis), or other active ocular conditions requiring ongoing treatment/monitoring, such as uncontrolled glaucoma, active diabetic retinopathy with macular edema, macular degeneration requiring treatment ≤ 90 days before first dose, presence of papilledema, best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) worse than 20/70 in either eye, or monocular vision. * Participants receiving corticosteroid or vasoconstricting eyedrops at baseline or within 5 weeks of Cycle 1 Day 1. * Participants who received prior treatment with MIRV or other FRα-targeting agents. Note: Other protocol-defined inclusion and exclusion criteria may apply.
