Full Title
A Phase 2 Study of Avutometinib (VS-6766, a Dual RAF/MEK Inhibitor) Alone and In Combination with Defactinib (FAK Inhibitor) in Recurrent Low-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer (LGSOC) (RAMP 201)Purpose
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the investigational drugs VS-6766 and defactinib in women with advanced low-grade serous ovarian cancer that came back after prior treatment. Both drugs belong to a class of drugs called “kinase inhibitors.” These drugs target enzymes found on the surface of cells; cancer cells need these enzymes to survive and grow. When they are blocked, the cancer may stop growing or grow more slowly, and cancer cells may shrink.
Patients will be randomly assigned to receive VS-6766 alone or VS-6766 plus defactinib. Both drugs are taken orally (by mouth).

- Patients must be physically well enough that they are fully ambulatory, capable of all self-care, and capable of all but physically strenuous activities. As an example, patients must be well enough that they would be able to carry out office work or light housework.
