Summary

The primary objectives of the study are: (1) in the dose-escalation part: to evaluate safety
and tolerability and to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of farletuzumab
ecteribulin (MORAb-202) in participants with selected tumor types (ovarian cancer [OC],
endometrial cancer [EC], non-small cell lung carcinoma [NSCLC], triple-negative breast cancer
[TNBC]), and (2) in dose-confirmation part: to evaluate preliminary efficacy measured by
objective response rate (ORR) of farletuzumab ecteribulin (MORAb-202) in participants with OC
and EC at selected doses and to further evaluate the safety and tolerability of farletuzumab
ecteribulin (MORAb-202) and (3) dose-optimization part. (divided in two parts: Part A [OC and
EC participants] and Part B [EC only]): Part A: to evaluate other farletuzumab ecteribulin
(MORAb-202) treatment regimens for safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy in
participants with OC and EC; to evaluate the use of the addition of short course of oral
corticosteroids following every dose of farletuzumab ecteribulin (MORAb-202) administered
every 21 days, as mitigation strategy for interstitial lung disease (ILD); and to select
treatment regimens with farletuzumab ecteribulin (MORAb-202) for further evaluation in Part
B. Part B: to further evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of 2
treatment regimens with farletuzumab ecteribulin (MORAb-202) in participants with advanced EC
and to determine the recommended treatment regimen for further development of farletuzumab
ecteribulin (MORAb-202).

  7. platinum-resistant disease (defined as progression within 6 months after the last dose of at least 4 cycles of the last platinum containing chemotherapy regimen)
  8. received up to 4 lines of systemic therapy post development of platinum resistance. For Dose-Confirmation and Dose Optimization: Note: Only participants with histologically confirmed diagnosis of advanced, recurrent, or metastatic EC will be enrolled at sites in France. Ovarian cancer or primary peritoneal cancer or fallopian tube cancer:
  9. Platinum-resistant disease:
  10. For participant with 1 line of platinum-containing therapy: RECIST version 1.1 progression greater than (>) 1 month and less than or equal to (<=) 6 months after the last dose of the first platinum-containing chemotherapy regimen (of at least 4 cycles)
  11. For participant with 2-3 lines of platinum-containing therapy: RECIST version 1.1 progression during or within 6 months after the last dose of the 2nd or 3rd platinum-containing chemotherapy regimen.
  12. Have received up to 3 prior lines of systemic therapy and for whom single-agent therapy is appropriate as the next line of therapy. Participants may have been treated with up to one line of therapy subsequent to determination of platinum-resistance.
  13. Neoadjuvant plus/minus (±) adjuvant will be considered 1 line of therapy.
  14. Maintenance therapy (example, bevacizumab, PARP inhibitors) will be considered part of the preceding line of therapy (will not be counted as an independent line of therapy).
  15. Hormonal therapy will be counted as a separate line of therapy unless it was given as maintenance.
  16. Therapy changed due to toxicity in the absence of progression will be considered part of the same line. Endometrial cancer:
  17. Participants must have histologically confirmed diagnosis of advanced, recurrent, or metastatic EC. All histologic (including carcinosarcoma [no more than one participant at any dose level]) and molecular subtypes will be included. Participants may have been treated with an Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor (ICI) containing regimen (or be ineligible for ICI treatment) and must have had no more than 2 prior regimens (not including adjuvant therapy if progression or recurrent/metastatic disease occurred more than 6 months after the completion of the last cycle of adjuvant therapy).
