Abstract Recurrent ovarian cancer patients, especially those resistant to platinum, lack effective curative treatments. To address this, we conducted a phase 2 clinical trial (NCT02853318) combining pembrolizumab with bevacizumab, to increase T cell infiltration into the tumor, and oral cyclophosphamide, to reduce the number of regulatory T cells. The trial accrued 40 heavily pretreated recurrent ovarian cancer patients. The primary endpoint, progression free survival, was extended to a median of 10.2 months. The secondary endpoints demonstrated an objective response rate of 47.5%, and disease control in 30% of patients for over a year while maintaining a good quality of life. We performed comprehensive molecular, immune, microbiome, and metabolic profiling on samples of trial patients. Here, we show increased T and B cell clusters and distinct microbial patterns with amino acid and lipid metabolism are linked to exceptional clinical responses. This study suggests the immune milieu and host-microbiome can be leveraged to improve antitumor response in future immunotherapy trials. |
