About

The main purpose of this study is to determine how 2 doses mirvetuximab soravtansine affects the amount and activity of folate receptor alpha proteins in tumor cells of patients who have completed standard neoadjuvant treatment and are scheduled to have their tumors surgically removed.

Full description

The folate receptor alpha protein is important in tumor growth and can be over-expressed in some tumor cells. The word "over-expressed" in this situation means that there are too many copies of the protein on the surface of the cell when compared to a healthy, normal cell, and this helps the tumor continue to grow in size. Mirvetuximab soravtansine acts by targeting the folate receptor in tumor cells. In animal models, mirvetuximab soravtansine is highly effective in decreasing tumor size. This suggests that mirvetuximab soravtansine may help shrink or stop growth of folate receptor alpha positive breast cancer in this study.

In this study the investigator will be looking at how folate receptor alpha expression changes following 2 doses of neoadjuvant mirvetuximab soravtansine. The investigator will also look to evaluate the safety of this regimen, measure any change in tumor size, associate folate receptor alpha expression with a change in tumor size, and describe any changes in Ki-67 and percent of apoptotic cells in this population.

Inclusion and exclusion criteria

Screening Inclusion Criteria:

Signed informed screening consent form with HIPAA authorization for release of personal health information.
Research personnel will review medical records of subjects consenting to screening to ensure no obvious factors would exclude them from the treatment portion of the study (e.g., history of cirrhosis of the liver) and to confirm diagnosis and staging
Histological confirmation of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) biopsy report
Stage 1-3 tumors > 1cm in maximal diameter.
Standard neoadjuvant chemotherapy NAC and definitive surgery planned (NOTE: NAC chemotherapy will be per standard of care, and not dictated by this clinical trial)
Must be able to supple sufficient tissue (block or slides) from diagnostic biopsy to undergo testing.

Inclusion Criteria:

Written informed consent and HIPAA authorization for release of personal health information.
Must have operable tumor ≥ 1cm determined by and obtained less than 9 weeks after completion of standard NAC
Must be able to meet study schedule: 2 doses of mirvetuximab soravtansine administered 3 weeks apart and surgery within 9 weeks of last dose of NAC.
Willing to undergo biopsy for research purposes only (before and after), and to allow surgical tissue sample from surgery to be used for research purposes
May have symptoms however must be ambulatory and able to carry out work of a light or sedentary nature (e.g., light housework, office work)
Demonstrate adequate organ function through labs
Females of childbearing years must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 48 hours prior to dose 1 mirvetuximab soravtansine. NOTE: Sexually mature females are considered of child bearing potential unless they are surgically sterile (have undergone a hysterectomy, or bilateral oophorectomy) or they are naturally postmenopausal for at least 12 consecutive months
Females of childbearing potential must be willing to abstain from heterosexual activity or to use two effective methods of contraception from the time of informed consent until 4 months after the last dose of mirvetuximab soravtansine

Exclusion Criteria:
