About
This is a phase III, randomized, double-blinded, comparative, multi-centre study to assess the efficacy of atezolizumab in combination with platinum-based chemotherapy plus bevacizumab administered concurrent to chemotherapy and in maintenance, in patients presenting epithelial ovarian cancer (including patients with primary peritoneal and / or fallopian tube adenocarcinoma) who have platinum-sensitive relapse (platinum-free interval > 6 months).
Full description
Approximately 600 patients will be randomized using an Interactive Voice Response System /Interactive web system (IVR/IWR system) in a 1:2 ratio to the treatments as specified below:
A. Arm A: Placebo + bevacizumab & platinum-based chemotherapy.
The placebo arm will include one of 3 following regimens up to investigator choice (chosen prior to randomization)
B. Arm B: Atezolizumab + bevacizumab & platinum-based chemotherapy
The atezolizumab arm will include one of 3 following regimens up to investigator choice (chosen prior to randomization)

Inclusion criteria
Female Patients must be ≥18 years of age.
Signed informed consent and ability to comply with treatment and follow-up.
Patients with histologically confirmed progressive non-mucinous epithelial ovarian cancer, primary peritoneal adenocarcinoma and / or fallopian-tube adenocarcinoma
Patients with PD-L1 status determined for stratification on mandatory de novo biopsy sent to central laboratory as a formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) sample.
Patients whose disease has relapsed more than 6 months from the last dose of platinum before randomization:
Patients with one or 2 prior lines of chemotherapy. The last line of chemotherapy should have included platinum.
Availability at the study site of representative FFPE tumor sample from surgery during front line therapy, at best before chemotherapy
Patients must have normal organ and bone marrow function :

Are eligible patients with:
History of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (including pneumonitis), drug-induced pneumonitis, organizing pneumonia (i.e., bronchiolitis obliterans, cryptogenic organizing pneumonia), or evidence of active pneumonitis. Radiation pneumonitis in the radiation field (fibrosis) detected on screening chest CT scan is permitted

Patients with past hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection or resolved HBV infection (defined as having a negative HBsAg test and a positive antibody to hepatitis B core antigen [anti-HBc] antibody test) are eligible Patients positive for hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody are eligible only if polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is negative for HCV RNA.
Signs or symptoms of infection within 2 weeks prior to Cycle 1, Day 1
Administration of a live, attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks prior to Cycle 1, Day 1 or anticipation that such a live attenuated vaccine will be required during the study. Influenza vaccination should be given during influenza season only (example approximately October to March in the Northern Hemisphere). Patients must not receive live, attenuated influenza
