Summary
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of mirvetuximab soravtansine and gemcitabine hydrochloride in treating patients with folate receptor (FR) alpha-positive ovarian, primary peritoneal, fallopian tube, endometrial, or triple negative breast cancer that has come back. Mirvetuximab soravtansine is a monoclonal antibody, called mirvetuximab, linked to a chemotherapy drug called DM4. Mirvetuximab attaches to FOLR1 positive cancer cells in a targeted way and delivers DM4 to kill them. Drugs used in the chemotherapy, such as gemcitabine hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving mirvetuximab soravtansine and gemcitabine may work better in treating patients with FRalpha-positive ovarian, primary peritoneal, fallopian tube, endometrial, or triple negative breast cancer.

Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

- All patients must have one of the following pathologically documented recurrent tumor
types with FRalpha positivity by the Ventana immunohistochemistry (IHC):

- Ovarian, primary peritoneal, fallopian tube (with exclusion of low grade, clear
cell or sarcomatoid histologies for ovarian cancer) >= 50% of tumor staining >=
2+ intensity

- Endometrial >= 50% of tumor staining >= 2+ intensity

- TNBC confirmed by medical history of HER2-negative (confirmed by IHC 0, 1+
regardless of fluorescence in situ hybridization [FISH] ratio; IHC 2+ with FISH
ratio < 2.0 or HER2 gene copy < 6.0; FISH ratio of 0, indicating gene deletion;
when positive and negative in situ hybridization controls are present); estrogen
receptor (ER) negative (confirmed as ER expression =< 1% positive tumor nuclei);
progesterone receptor (PR) negative (confirmed as PR expression =< 1% positive
tumor nuclei): >= 25% of tumor staining >= 1+ intensity

- Patients must have measurable disease, defined as at least one lesion that can be
accurately measured in at least one dimension (longest diameter to be recorded for
non-nodal lesions >= 10 mm and short axis for nodal lesions >= 15 mm); patients with
recurrent ovarian, primary peritoneal, fallopian tube cancer may have biochemical
relapse only, with baseline values of CA-125 at least 2 X upper limit of normal (ULN)

- Treatment with targeted agents, immunotherapy, or hormones is allowed; patients are
only eligible if they have received and failed, or have been intolerant to standard
treatments known to confer clinical benefit

- Life expectancy of greater than 3 months

- Absolute neutrophil count >= 1.5 x 10^9/L, determined within 14 days of registration

- Platelets >= 100 x 10^9/L, determined within 14 days of registration

- Total bilirubin =< 1.5 x upper limit of normal (ULN), determined within 14 days of
registration

- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase
[SGOT])/alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (serum glutamate pyruvate transaminase [SGPT])
=< 2.5 X institutional upper limit of normal, determined within 14 days of
registration

- Alkaline phosphatase =< 2.5 X institutional upper limit of normal, determined within
14 days of registration

- Creatinine clearance >= 50 mL/min/1.73 m^2 for patients with creatinine levels above
institutional normal, determined within 14 days of registration

- Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test at screening and
must agree to use adequate contraception prior to study entry, for the duration of
study participation, and for 3 months after the last dose of IMGN853 and gemcitabine

- Patients must consent to analysis on archival tissue

- Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document

- Patients must have resolution of toxic effect(s) of the most recent prior chemotherapy
to grade 1 or less (except alopecia)

- Cohort A: Patients with TNBC must have received no more than 4 lines of systemic
cytotoxic chemotherapy; patients must have received and failed, or have been
intolerant to anthracycline, taxanes, capecitabine, eribulin or other agents known to
confer clinical benefit; patients are not required to fail all these agents if, in the
investigator's opinion, patients would benefit from treatment on current protocol

- Cohort B: Patients with recurrent endometrial cancer may have received up to 2 lines
of cytotoxic chemotherapy (adjuvant and one line for recurrent disease, or 2 lines of
chemotherapy for recurrent uterine cancer in patients who did not receive adjuvant
chemotherapy); patients must have received and failed, or have been intolerant to
platinum agents, taxanes, liposomal doxorubicin or other agents known to confer
clinical benefit; patients are not required to fail all these agents if, in the
investigator's opinion, patients would benefit from treatment on current protocol

- Cohort C: Eligible patients must have received no more than 4 lines of systemic
cytotoxic chemotherapy and must have disease resistant to platinum therapy (disease
that progressed during or within six months of completing subsequent platinum
therapy); primary platinum refractory patients are eligible providing they meet other
eligibility criteria; in addition to platinum agents, patients must have received and
failed, or have been intolerant to taxanes, liposomal doxorubicin or other agents
known to confer clinical benefit; patients are not required to fail all these agents
if, in the investigator's opinion, patients would benefit from treatment on current
protocol

- Cohort C: Patients in this cohort only will require a single tumor biopsy 48-72H after
the first administration of IMGN853 and gemcitabine on day 1, cycle 1 of treatment,
providing it is safe/feasible and confers non-significant risk to patient

Exclusion Criteria:

- Previous treatment with gemcitabine

- Prior treatment with FR-targeting investigational agents is not allowed

- Patients who have had chemotherapy (including investigational cytotoxic chemotherapy),
biologic agents (e.g., cytokines or antibodies) within 3 weeks (6 weeks for
nitrosoureas or mitomycin C) before the first dose of study treatment

treatment

- Any other prior malignancy from which the patient has been disease free for less than
3 years, with the exception of adequately treated and basal or squamous cell skin

failure and/or QT interval > 470 for females and > 450 for males, unstable angina
pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, hemorrhagic or ischemic stroke within the last 6 months
