Conditions: Metastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Stage IV Pancreatic Cancer AJCC v8
Allocation: NA | Intervention model: SINGLE_GROUP
Enrollment: 22
Healthy volunteers: no

Brief summary:
This phase II trial studies how well niraparib and dostarlimab work in treating patients with germline or somatic BRCA1/2 and PALB2 mutated pancreatic cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Niraparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as dostarlimab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving niraparib and dostarlimab may kill more tumor cells.

Detailed description:
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. To determine antitumor activity as measured by disease control rate at 12 weeks (DCR12) as assessed using immune-modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (iRECIST) in select homologous recombination repair (HRR) deficient pancreatic cancer patients with HRR deficiency (defined as mutations in BRCA 1/ 2, or PALB2).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To assess adverse events according to the current National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) and other safety parameters.

II. To assess the time to next treatment (TTNT), objective response rate (ORR), time to and duration of response and duration of confirmed stable disease according to iRECIST.

III. To assess progression-free survival. IV. To assess overall survival.

CORRELATIVE RESEARCH OBJECTIVES:

I. To assess germline deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and serum markers of immune response.

II. To determine changes in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) profile after therapy with a PARP inhibitor (i) and a PD-1 inhibitor.

III. To study mechanisms of resistance in ctDNA profile after therapy with a PARPi and a PD-1 inhibitor.

IV. To assess the tumor microenvironment for immune related changes (immune infiltration, PD-L1 and PD-1 expression, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes \[TIL\]).

V. To assess genetic profile of the tumor pre- and post-treatment. VI. To determine changes in the cytokine profile pre- and post-treatment.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive niraparib orally (PO) once daily (QD) on days 1-21. Patients also receive dostarlimab intravenously (IV) over 30 minutes on day 1 every 3 weeks (Q3W) for cycles 1-4 and every 6 weeks (Q6W) for subsequent cycles. Cycles repeat every 21 days for up to 2 years in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days, every 3 months until progressive disease (PD), and then every 6 months for up to 5 years after registration.

Arms:
arm 1: Patients receive niraparib PO QD on days 1-21. Patients also receive dostarlimab IV over 30 minutes on day 1 Q3W for cycles 1-4 and Q6W for subsequent cycles. Cycles repeat every 21 days for up to 2 years in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

What’s Involved 
Study participation involves a combination treatment of two 
investigational drugs, niraparib and dostarlimab. Niraparib is an oral 
drug (pill form) that will be self-administered daily while on study. 
Dostarlimab is a drug that will be administered intravenously once at 
the beginning of each treatment cycle. 
 
Cycles are 21 days long and subjects will visit the clinic on Day 1 of 
each cycle (plus Day 15 of the first cycle). 
 
Subjects enrolled in this study will be asked to provide both blood 
samples (up to 6) and tissue samples (up to 2 biopsies with an optional 
3rd) for research purposes at time points specified later in this form.  
Key Information 
The most common and expected risks of treatment with niraparib 
include low blood cell counts, high blood pressure, heart palpitations, 
urinary tract infection, shortness of breath, runny or stuffy nose, 
cough, headache, dizziness, feeling weak, lack of energy, difficulty 
sleeping, joint pain, back pain, stomach pain, indigestion, feeling sick, 
vomiting, watery stools (diarrhea), difficulty passing stool 
(constipation), and decreased appetite. 
 
The most common and expected risks of treatment with dostarlimab 
include anemia, nausea vomiting, diarrhea, itchy skin, rash, and 
increased levels in liver function tests. 
 
The risks of the tumor biopsy procedure are mainly pain, bleeding, 
and infection. Depending on the location of the tumor, there is a small 
risk of injury or damage to the nearby organs or tissues. Your doctor 
may use a local anesthetic and/or a medicine to calm your nerves 
before or during the biopsy procedure; there is a possibility that an 
allergic reaction to the anesthetic may occur. There is also a risk of 
scarring at the biopsy site, and there is a possibility of tumor cells 
spreading from the tumor into the nearby area. Your doctor will 
explain the procedure to you and discuss these risks with you. 
 
A complete, detailed list of any/all risks related to study participation 
is located later in this form in section “What are the possible risks or 
discomforts from being in this research study?”

What are the possible risks or discomforts from being in this research study? 
 
 
Niraparib (Formerly MK-4827) 
Niraparib has moderate influence on the ability to drive or use machines. Patients who take 
niraparib may experience weakness, fatigue, difficulty concentrating and dizziness. Patients who 
experience these symptoms should observe caution when driving or using machines. 
 
Known side effects of niraparib are listed below: 
 
Very Common occurrence (may affect more than 1 in 10 people) 
• Decrease in a type of blood cell called platelets that help stop bleeding; this may increase 
your risk of bleeding (thrombocytopenia)  
• Decrease in red blood cells that carry oxygen; this may make you feel tired or short of 
breath (anemia)  
• Decrease in a type of white blood cell called a leukocyte that fight infection; this may 
decrease your ability to fight infections (leukopenia) 
• Decrease in a type of white blood cell called neutrophils that fight infection; this may 
decrease your ability to fight infections and may be associated with fever, and may lead 
to a potentially life-threatening condition caused by the body’s response to an infection, 
triggering changes that can damage multiple organ systems (neutropenia, febrile 
neutropenia) 
• Increased blood pressure (hypertension) 
• Noticeably rapid, strong, or irregular heartbeat (palpitations) 
• Pain or burning when urinating which may indicate an infection (urinary tract infection) 
• Breathlessness or difficulty breathing (dyspnea) 
• Runny or stuffy nose (nasopharyngitis) 
• Cough 
• Headache 
• Feeling lightheaded or like you are about to faint (dizziness)

with use of niraparib. If you experience prolonged haematological toxicities, contact your 
study doctor for haematologist evaluation. 
• High blood pressure (hypertension) including severe increase in blood pressure 
(hypertensive crisis) has been reported with the use of niraparib. If you have pre-existing 
hypertension, the physician will determine if your blood pressure is adequately controlled 
before starting niraparib treatment.  
o Symptoms of a severe increase in blood pressure may include blurry vision, 
headache, nausea, vomiting, confusion, passing out, seizures, weakness or numbness 
on one side of body or in one arm or leg and/or difficulty talking (symptoms of a 
stroke), trouble breathing, chest pain, pain in the upper or lower back, urine that is 
brown or bloody 
• Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome (PRES), a rare neurological side effect 
has been reported with niraparib treatment. 
o If you have headache, vision changes, confusion or seizure with or without high 
blood pressure, please contact your doctor. 
 
Class Effects: 
Class effects are potential risks that are associated with a particular group of drugs.  Niraparib 
belongs to the group known as poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARP) inhibitors.  
These class effects are potential risks for the group of drugs but have not yet been identified as 
side effects for niraparib.   
 
Secondary Primary Malignancy: 
PARP inhibitors may also cause a new primary cancer (that is, a cancer other than the one for 
which you have been treated). In 2 studies comparing niraparib to placebo (sugar pill), new 
primary cancers were observed in a small number of patients who took niraparib or placebo.  
 
Safe Handling: 
Niraparib may have adverse effects on an unborn baby. Wash your hands after handling the 
Study Drug. If a caregiver is giving the Study Drug to you, he or she should wear disposable 
gloves. Notify your Study Doctor if it appears that the Study Drug is damaged or defective in any 
way. 
 
Dostarlimab (TSR-042) 
As of April 2023, dostarlimab has been studied in about 3000 patients with advanced or recurrent 
solid tumors in clinical trials, with about 2300 of these patients receiving dostarlimab in 
combination with other medicines Your study doctor will explain the risks, side effects, and 
discomforts that may be experienced related to non-study drugs which are part of usual care. 
Some of the side effects mentioned below can be life-threatening or fatal.

These side effects are considered very common in patients who took dostarlimab (may affect 
more than 1 in 10 people):  
• Decrease in the number of red blood cells that carry oxygen. Low red blood cell count 
may make you feel tired or short of breath and symptoms may require a blood transfusion 
(anemia) 
• Feeling sick to the stomach (nausea) 
• Vomiting 
• Frequent watery stools (diarrhea)  
• Itchy skin (pruritus) 
• Rash 
• Fever (pyrexia) 
• Increased levels of substances in the blood produced by the liver which may be a sign of 
liver injury (AST increased, ALT increased) (transaminases increased) 
• Underactive thyroid gland (hypothyroidism) 
 
These side effects are considered common in patients who took dostarlimab (may affect up to 1 
in 10 people): 
• Decreased production of adrenal hormones resulting in possible weakness and/or low 
blood pressure (adrenal insufficiency) 
• Muscle pain (myalgia) 
• Overactive thyroid gland (hyperthyroidism) 
• Inflammation of the lungs which can cause shortness of breath and difficulty breathing 
(pneumonitis) 
• Inflammation of the pancreas causing pain in the upper abdomen. This could become 
severe and cause nausea and vomiting, fever, and rapid heart rate (pancreatitis) 
• Inflammation of the colon that can cause stomach pain or diarrhea (colitis) 
• Chills 
• Inflammation of the liver (hepatitis) 
 
These side effects are considered uncommon in patients who took dostarlimab (may affect up to 
1 in 100 people): 
• Destruction of red blood cells which can cause tiredness, dizziness, yellow skin or fast 
heart rate (autoimmune hemolytic anemia) 
• Inflammation of the thyroid gland (thyroiditis) 
• Pituitary gland inflammation (hypophysitis) 
• Severe high blood sugar due to uncontrolled diabetes (diabetic ketoacidosis)

• Inflammation throughout the whole body leading to high or low temperatures, low blood 
pressure, increased heart rate, increased rate of breathing and low or high white blood cell 
count (Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome) 
• Infusion-related reactions which can occur within 24 hours after receiving an intravenous 
infusion, or which can be delayed for up to about 2 weeks.  Infusion-related reactions 
may include dizziness or fainting, flushing, rash, fever, chills, shortness of breath, 
increased or decreased blood pressure, increased heart rate, swelling of the lips, tongue or 
face, feeling sick to your stomach, back pain or pain at the site of infusion. Although 
infusion-related reactions are usually reversible, they can be severe or life threatening. 
(Infusion related reactions) 
 
There are rare but serious immune-related adverse events which have been seen when 
dostarlimab was used alone or in combination with other medicines:  
• Overactive immune-system cells which damage body tissues and organs leading to signs 
of uncontrolled fever, enlarged spleen, low blood count and liver test abnormalities. This 
disease can be fatal. (Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis). 
• A neurological disorder where the immune system attacks part of the peripheral nervous 
system that can cause tingling in the feet and hands, pain, muscle weakness, and 
problems with coordination (Guillain-Barre syndrome). 
• Muscle weakness, twitching, cramping, or inability to move (peripheral motor 
neuropathy) 
• Muscle pain and weakness; swollen, red, or thickened skin (eosinophilic fasciitis) 
 
There may be other risks called “class effects” that have been seen in patients receiving other 
drugs that work like dostarlimab. These effects could also occur with dostarlimab. They are 
potential risks but not known as side effects for dostarlimab so far. The most significant class 
related side effects are “immune-related”, meaning side effects caused by increased activity of 
the immune system, which can affect multiple organs of the body including bowels 
(gastrointestinal tract), hormone glands (endocrine system), heart (cardiovascular system), lungs,

Risks related to pregnancy and breastfeeding 
Dostarlimab may cause harm to the unborn baby when it is used by a pregnant person. You 
should not join this study if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant. You should not 
join this study if you are breastfeeding. 
 
If you are a woman able to have children, you will be given a pregnancy test at screening, and if 
the result is positive, you will not be able to participate in this study. 
 
You will be required to use one highly effective form of contraception with your partner starting 
with the Screening Visit through 180 days after the last dose of study therapy. If you are already 
using a method of birth control, your Study Doctor or the study staff will discuss with you 
whether your current method of birth control is acceptable for use during this study. 
 
The following are considered highly effective forms of contraception: hormonal contraceptives 
that include any registered and marketed contraceptive agent that contains an estrogen and/or a 
progestational agent (including oral, subcutaneous, intrauterine, or intramuscular agents), 
intrauterine device (IUD), vasectomized partner, and abstinence, if this is the established and 
preferred contraception for the patient.  
 
If, during this study, you or your partner become pregnant or think you may be pregnant, stop 
taking the Study Drug and let the Study Doctor know right away. You will be asked to withdraw 
from the study. Information about your pregnancy and its outcome will be collected and used to

learn more about the effects of the Study Drug on pregnancy. Payment for all aspects of 
obstetrical care, child, or related care will be your responsibility.  
 
Female study participants who are pregnant or breast-feeding, or any study participant unable or 
unwilling to use effective contraception as required by study instructions should not use 
dostarlimab. 
 
All drugs have a potential risk of an allergic reaction, which if not treated promptly, could 
become life-threatening. 
 
Other less common side effects have been reported. The Study Doctor or staff can discuss these 
with you. 
 
Reproductive Risks 
The effect of the combination of niraparib and dostarlimab on a fetus (developing baby still in 
the womb), or on a breastfeeding infant, is unknown and may be harmful. Because of these risks, 
persons of childbearing potential cannot take part in this study if they are pregnant or 
breastfeeding. 
 
Subjects of Childbearing Potential: 
If you are able to become pregnant, you must have a negative pregnancy test in order to 
participate in this study unless you cannot become pregnant. 
 
To participate in the study, patients who can become pregnant must adhere to the birth control 
requirements.  
 
If you become pregnant or think you may be pregnant during the study, you must stop taking 
the study drugs and contact the Study Doctor’s site right away. You will be asked to withdraw 
from the study. The Study Doctor is required to follow up and document the course and the 
outcome of all pregnancies, even if you withdraw from the study or if the study has finished. 
 
You must not breast-feed an infant (or store breastmilk for use) during the study and for 90 days 
after receiving the final dose of Niraparib and for 180 days after receiving the final dose of 
dostarlimab. 
 
Subjects Able to Father a Child: 
To participate in the study, male study patients must adhere to contraception requirements.  
 
You must not donate sperm for 180days after your last dose of Study Drug:  
If your partner thinks they might have become pregnant within one month of beginning the 
study, while you are in the study, or for 180 days after your last dose of dostarlimab or 180 days

after your last dose of niraparib, you must tell the Principal Investigator immediately. The 
Principal Investigator may ask for your partner’s permission to collect information about the 
outcome of the pregnancy and the newborn. You won’t have to stop taking the study drug or stop 
taking part in the study if your partner becomes pregnant. 
 
Other Risks 
Blood Draw Risks 
The risks of drawing blood include pain, bruising, lightheadedness, and/or fainting, or rarely, 
infection at the site of the needle stick. 
 
MRI Risks 
There is no radiation associated with MRI, but people who have metal devices like pacemakers 
cannot have an MRI and will not be able to participate in the study. Some people with 
claustrophobia may feel too closed in and may not tolerate MRI scanning. If you feel too 
confined in the MRI scanner you can inform the technologist and the MRI scan will be stopped. 
The MRI machine makes loud knocking sounds when it is scanning. Because of this you will be 
asked to wear earplugs while getting your MRI scan. The earplugs minimize discomfort from 
noise and keep the MRI noise within the safety range. 
 
The contrast agent you will receive is FDA-approved and used routinely for MRI exams. It 
contains a material called gadolinium, a rare metal. About 1 in 100 people may notice 
discomfort, tingling or warmth in the lips, metallic taste in the mouth, tingling in the arm, 
nausea, or headache. These side effects usually last only for a short time and go away as your 
body adjusts to the gadolinium. There is a small risk of an allergic reaction to gadolinium. 
However, a severe allergic reaction occurs in less than one in 300,000 people. The needle placed 
in your vein to give you the gadolinium may cause minor pain, bruising and/or infection at the 
injection site. Studies have shown that small amounts of gadolinium may remain in the body of 
patients who have received these injections. The effect of this, if anything, is unknown at this 
time. 
 
Radiation Risk 
You will be exposed to radiation from the CT scans of your tumor. The amount of radiation has a 
low risk of harmful effects. 
 
Biopsy Risks 
The risks of the tumor biopsy procedure are mainly pain, bleeding, and infection. Depending on 
the location of the tumor, there is a small risk of injury or damage to the nearby organs or tissues. 
Your doctor may use a local anesthetic and/or a medicine to calm your nerves before or during 
the biopsy procedure; there is a possibility that an allergic reaction to the anesthetic may occur.

There is also a risk of scarring at the biopsy site, and there is a possibility of tumor cells 
spreading from the tumor into the nearby area. Your doctor will explain the procedure to you and 
discuss these risks with you. 
 
Complications from biopsies can be life threatening. As with any interventional procedure, other 
potentially serious complications from bleeding or organ damage may occur. These might 
require additional surgical intervention. 
 
The risks described above may be different for you depending on your health and the location of 
the tumor. These risks should be discussed with your study doctor or person performing the 
biopsy. 
 
You will be exposed to radiation during the CT-guided biopsies. The amount of radiation has a 
low risk of harmful effects. 
 
Bone and Bone Marrow Sample 
If your doctor wants you to be tested for Myelodysplastic Syndrome and Acute Myeloid 
Leukemia (MDS/AML), then you will have a bone/bone marrow biopsy collected for testing by 
a local haematologist. Your local haematologist may ask you to sign another consent form before 
the procedure. This procedure may take about 30 minutes, including the preparation of the 
biopsy site.  Before the procedure, you will be given local anaesthesia or IV sedation (to numb 
the place where the biopsy will be taken).   A needle will be placed either into your breastbone or 
a pelvic bone to obtain the liquid bone marrow sample.  A second sample will be also collected 
by removing a small piece of the bone along with the marrow inside the bone. The doctor will be 
sure that you have recovered from the anaesthesia before you leave the doctor’s office.  Risks of 
the procedure may include a brief sharp pain during the procedure, bleeding (if you have low 
platelets (blood cells)), infection or discomfort at the site of biopsy. 
 
Genetic Testing Risks 
This study involves testing your DNA, which is the genetic information you inherited from your 
parents (also known as genetic testing). You will not be notified of the genetic test results and 
they will not be put into your medical record. 
 
A Federal law, called the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA), generally makes 
it illegal for health insurance companies, group health plans, and most employers to discriminate 
against you based on your genetic information. This law generally will protect you in the 
following ways:  
• Health insurance companies and group health plans may not request your genetic 
information that we get from this research.  
• Health insurance companies and group health plans may not use your genetic information 
when making decisions regarding your eligibility or premiums.

Version Date: 07Oct2023 
• Employers with 15 or more employees may not use your genetic information when 
making a decision to hire, promote, or fire you or when setting the terms of your 
employment.  
All health insurance companies and group health plans must follow this law.  
 
Be aware that this new Federal law doesn’t protect you against genetic discrimination by 
companies that sell life insurance, disability insurance, or long-term care insurance. 
 
Standard of Care Risks 
Your doctor will discuss the risks of tests and procedures that are part of your standard clinical 
care. 
 
Confidentiality Risk 
As with all research, there is a chance that confidentiality could be compromised; however, we 
take precautions to minimize this risk.  
 
Additional Costs 
Taking part in this research study may lead to added costs to you. In some cases, insurance will 
not pay for services ordinarily covered because these services were performed in a research 
study. You should check with your insurance company to see what services will be covered and 
what you will be responsible to pay. 
 
Unknown Risks 
There may be other side effects or risks that we cannot predict. Many side effects may go away 
shortly after the study medication or procedure is stopped. However, in some cases they can be 
serious, long-lasting, permanent, and/or fatal. 
 
 
Are there reasons you might leave this research study early? 
 
 
If you decide to stop taking part in the study for any reason, we will ask you to make a final 
study visit. At this visit, we will: 
• Ask you about side effects or health problems since your last visit 
• Draw a blood sample for research 
• Review your study drug diary 
• Collect any unused study drug 
 
You may decide to stop at any time. You should tell the Principal Investigator if you decide to 
stop and you will be advised whether any additional tests may need to be done for your safety.

Optional Research Biopsy 
If your cancer returns, we would like to obtain a portion of the biopsy tissue for research testing. 
These tests will be done in order to understand how your cancer responds to treatment. It is 
hoped that this will help investigators better understand how to make this therapy more effective. 
The results of these tests will not be sent to you or your study doctor and will not be used in 
planning your care. These tests are for research purposes only, and you will not have to pay for 
them. 
 
You can take part in the treatment portion of this study without taking part in these research 
laboratory tests.

1.0 
Background  
Pancreatic cancer is currently the 4th leading cause of cancer death in the US and will soon cause 
the death of more Americans than breast cancer. Therapies are very limited and largely 
ineffective. In our own data sequencing 3,000 patients with pancreatic cancer (accepted in 
JAMA), approximately 3% of pancreatic cancer patients harbor germline mutations in DNA 
repair genes such as BRCA1/2 and PALB2, and are therefore potential candidates for PARP-
inhibitor therapy. In addition, somatic mutations in Homologous Recombination Repair (HRR) 
genes can confer sensitivity as well, and have been reported to double the number of patients 
potentially eligible for such therapy. Recently, Waddell et al defined 5 subtypes of pancreatic 
adenocarcinoma, with BRCA-like tumors, categorized as such by genomic instability, comprising 
15-20% of pancreatic cancer, with the latter identified as a potential target for immunotherapy 
strategies. (1) In breast and ovarian BRCA-mutant tumors, neoantigen load alone did not 
correlate with T-cell infiltration, suggesting that other therapies to disrupt the tumor 
microenvironment may be necessary to induce an immune response. (2) The Keynote-162 study 
of niraparib and pembrolizumab has validated this approach, with early reports of impressive 
efficacy. Of the first 8 platinum-resistant ovarian cancer patients, 4 had confirmed responses, and 
4 had stable disease. One triple negative breast cancer patient (of 5) had SD for 10 cycles. (3) 
Although unselected trials in pancreatic cancer with immunotherapy alone have yet to be 
successful, we hypothesize that induced genetic variation with PARP inhibition disrupting the 
tumor microenvironment and increasing neoepitope expression can sensitize tumors to immune 
checkpoint inhibition. 
We are currently funded by a Project in our NCI Pancreas SPORE grant to more fully define 
genetic identification of this subset of patients and develop a therapeutic strategy. We have 
developed preliminary data (Figure 1) with RNAseq suggesting that potent PARP inhibition (in 
this case, talazoparib) is associated with gain of novel mutations in pancreas cell lines, even 
compared to cisplatin alone, or irinotecan alone. In addition, double-stranded break repair 
deficient tumors are associated with increased expression of genes involved in antitumor 
immunity, including CD8 positive T cell activators and regulatory molecules, in a similar pattern 
of that seen with MMR deficient tumors. (4)  
We propose that a combination of PARP inhibition and anti-PD1 therapy has valuable therapeutic 
potential in this subset of pancreatic cancer. The strong activity seen in the dose escalation phase 
of Keynote 162 in refractory ovarian and TNBC cancer hold promise for pancreatic cancer as 
well, as long as properly selected patients are enrolled. No reports have been published for the 
combination of PARP inhibition and checkpoint blockade in pancreatic cancer to date. However, 
given the potential for neoepitope formation in patients with defective HRR deficiency upon 
exposure to PARP inhibition, we propose that there could be an additive or synergistic effect of 
the combination in HRR deficient pancreatic cancer. HRR deficient pancreatic cancer has largely 
been defined to date based on mutations in well-established genes such as BRCA1/2 and PALB2. 
However, more DNA repair associated genes are becoming associated with risk for pancreatic 
cancer and may well impact tumor phenotype.  
Therefore, we propose this single arm-cohort study. The goal would be to evaluate the 
combination of niraparib and TSR-042 in patients with germline or somatic mutations in 
BRCA1/2 or PALB2.

Pre-clinical data: 
There are in vitro studies to suggest that the immunotherapy in combination with PARP 
inhibition provides synergy.(Higuchi, Flies et al. 2015) In a syngeneic model of breast cancer, 
PARP inhibition was shown to increase PD-L1 expression (Figure 1 from Jiao et al). (Jiao, Xia et 
al. 2017) Additionally in the same set of experiments, to corroborate these findings of extent of 
PARP inhibition (through measurement of PARylation enzyme activity, which are inhibited by 
PARP inhibitors), showed an inverse correlation (Figure 2 – see below). This supports that high 
level of PARP activity suppresses PD-L1 expression or stated another way, PARP inhibition was 
led to increased PD-L1 expression in these tumors.(Jiao, Xia et al. 2017)

(B), andMDA-MB-231 cells (C)were inoculated into the mammary fad pad of nude mice, and the 
mice with established tumors were treated with olaparib or rucaparib. Tumors were then isolated 
to evaluate PD-L1 expression by immunoblotting (A and B) or IHC staining (C). Black 
arrowheads, detected PD-L1 signals. Scale bar, 50 mm.

significant. 
[From Open Access Article Jiao et al: (Jiao, Xia et al. 2017)] 
 
PARP inhibition combinatorial strategies: 
PARP inhibitors are being explored in various clinical trials in combination with various other 
classes of drugs.(Drean, Lord et al. 2016) These include chemotherapies, targeted therapies, novel 
targeted therapies, as a radiation sensitizer, endocrine therapies and most recently several trials 
exploring the combination with immunotherapies.(Schaefer, James et al. 2011, Drean, Lord et al. 
2016, Papa, Caruso et al. 2016) This as noted above has been of particular interest in patients with 
homologous-repair related breast and/or ovarian cancers as well as increased interest to study this

now in prostate and pancreas cancers.(Javle, Golan et al. 2016, Ang and Tan 2017, Golan and 
Javle 2017, Ramakrishnan Geethakumari, Schiewer et al. 2017, Turk and Wisinski 2018) 
Furthermore, there is some data to support use of immunotherapy for BRCA-related tumors 
whereby immunotherapy alone could potentially be effective.(Matsuo, Spragg et al. 2018) The 
addition of PARP inhibition to further help augment responses in an aggressive disease like 
pancreas cancer would be of further value with rationale to supports its use as outlined. Figure 3 
from a recent review summarizes some of the ways how some of the ‘DNA-damaging’ drugs 
including PARP inhibition can affect the immunogenicity of tumors.(Brown, Sundar et al. 2018)

Current PARP inhibitor and immunotherapy combination trials: 
At present, there are several clinical trials trying to explore this combination in various tumor 
types where HR-deficiency plays a role. These include but are not limited to the following:

Resources available: 
Mayo Clinic Cancer Center operates in 3 physical sites – Rochester, MN, Phoenix, AZ, and 
Jacksonville, Fl. We have pancreatic cancer expertise at all 3 sites, with annual unique pancreatic 
adenocarcinoma patients seen upwards of 700 patients. TEMPUS, FoundationOne, Carris or 
equivalent testing will be performed on patients as part of standard of care testing. We anticipate 
5-8% of patients to be eligible for cohort based on our experience and published data on 
frequency of BRCA1/2, and PALB2 mutations. Given genomic testing is now done as part of 
standard of care, we anticipate rapid accrual.

Protocol Version Date: 18May2021 
All 3 sites are fully capable of research blood draws and biopsies. Tissue will be managed in 
FFPE, which will not require special handling or shipping. Fresh samples would also be collected 
for xenograft and/or organoid development and potentially RNA-Seq. There is one Mayo Clinic 
IRB and Cancer Center approval process, and though all 3 sites contract independently, there is 
an internal requirement for budgets to align within a tight range of one another. We have recently 
hired a program coordinator for our pancreas cancer group to speed timelines for trial 
development.

MC1841 
15 
Amendment 2 
Protocol Version Date: 18May2021 
Nonchildbearing potential is defined as follows (by other than medical 
reasons): 
• ≥45 years of age and has not had menses for >1 year 
• Patients who have been amenorrhoeic for <2 years without history 
of a hysterectomy and oophorectomy must have a follicle 
stimulating hormone value in the postmenopausal range upon 
screening evaluation 
• Post-hysterectomy, post-bilateral oophorectomy, or post-tubal 
ligation. Documented hysterectomy or oophorectomy must be 
confirmed with medical records of the actual procedure or 
confirmed by an ultrasound. Tubal ligation must be confirmed with 
medical records of the actual procedure, otherwise the patient must 
be willing to use an adequate barrier method throughout the study, 
starting with the screening visit through 180 days after the last 
dose of study treatment. Information must be captured 
appropriately within the site’s source documents. Note: Abstinence 
is acceptable if this is the established and preferred contraception 
for the patient. 
3.29k History or active TB (Bacillus Tuberculosis) that in the investigator’s 
opinion would preclude participation within the study. 
3.29l Any gastro-intestinal conditions that to the judgement of the investigator 
would interfere with the absorption of niraparib. 
3.29m Active, known or suspected unstable auto-immune disease, are excluded 
from this study. Exceptions to this criterion are all auto-immune disease 
that have remained stable within the past 3 months on corticosteroids (≤ 
prednisone 20 mg or equivalent) prior to first study treatment are allowed 
to enroll. Patients with autoimmune diseases that do not require active 
immunosuppression are also allowed to enroll. 
Note: Paraneoplastic disease as a cause of auto-immune phenomenon 
will not be considered as auto-immune disease and are allowed to enroll. 
3.29n Evidence of serious uncontrolled medical disorder, active infection or 
mental disorder that, to the judgement of the investigator, makes it 
undesirable for the subject to participate in the study or that would 
jeopardize compliance with the protocol. Examples include, but are not 
limited to, uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmia, recent (within 90 days) 
myocardial infarction, uncontrolled major seizure disorder, unstable spinal 
cord compression, superior vena cava syndrome, or any psychiatric 
disorder that prohibits obtaining informed consent 
3.29o Prior malignancy which required active systemic treatment within 2 years 
prior to first study treatment. Exceptions are: successfully treated 
squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, superficial bladder cancer, and in 
situ carcinoma of the cervix. Since patients with BRCA 1/2 or PALB2 can 
have other tumors, as long as they have been definitively treated, it would 
not be considered an exclusion.

14 For any patient diagnosed with MDS/AML while on study, a bone marrow aspirate/biopsy must be completed by a local hematologist. A copy of the hematologist's report of 
aspirate/biopsy findings including a classification according to WHO criteria and other sample testing results related to MDS/AML will be provided to the PI and to GSK. 
Testing completed as part of standard of care is sufficient as long as the methods are acceptable to GSK. Will only be collected once while on study. Upload this documentation 
into the Supporting Documents form within Rave. 
15 All lesions identified at screening should be followed using the same imaging procedure (i.e. either CT or MRI). A bone scan should only be done if clinically indicated and 
performed as needed if the patient develops symptoms or signs of bone disease. If bone metastases are present at screening, bone scans during treatment should be performed in 
addition to and at the same time as the CT/MRI-scans only to confirm complete response. Response should be assessed based on iRECIST criteria. Starting at screening and then 
at 6-week intervals while on study treatment and until immune confirmed objective progressive disease (iCPD) according to iRECIST (See Section 11.0). 
16 Research blood sample collected at end of Cycles 1, 2, 4, and (last day) End of Treatment (ie. progression) (See Section 14.1). 
17 Research tissue sample collection to be performed at baseline (after registration, prior to treatment), end of Cycle 4, and (last day) End of Treatment (ie. progression). The (last 
day) End of Treatment collection is optional. Only allowed to be omitted if there are no lesions amenable to biopsy or if biopsy is not possible due to patient safety. Will require 
coagulation tests (PT/PTT/INR) prior to biopsies.

and 4:30 p.m. Central Time (Monday through Friday). 
The instructions for the registration/randomization application are available on the 
MCCC web page (http://ccswww/training/index.html) and detail the process for 
completing and confirming patient registration. Prior to initiation of protocol treatment, 
this process must be completed in its entirety and an MCCC subject ID number must be 
available as noted in the instructions. It is the responsibility of the individual registering 
the patient to confirm the process has been successfully completed prior to release of the 
study agent. Patient registration via the registration/randomization application can be 
confirmed in any of the following ways: 
• 
Contact the MC Research Site Management Office (507) 284-2753. If the patient 
was fully registered, the MC Research Site Management Office staff can access 
the information from the centralized database and confirm the registration. 
• 
Refer to “Instructions for Remote Registration” in section “Finding/Displaying 
Information about A Registered Subject.”

Niraparib 
Niraparib will be administered as a flat-fixed, continuous daily dose. Niraparib 
should be swallowed whole and not opened, crushed or chewed. Food does not 
significantly affect the absorption of niraparib; therefore, niraparib may be taken 
without regard to meals. Participants should take doses at approximately the 
same times each day. Bedtime administration may be a potential method for 
managing nausea. 
Vomited doses should not be made up. 
If a participant misses a dose (greater than 12 hours from normal dosing time) of 
niraparib, they should skip that dose and take their next dose at its regularly 
scheduled time.  
If niraparib is dose reduced, participants should be instructed to continue using 
their current supply at their new dose until their supply has been exhausted.  
Participants must be instructed to return unused study drugs to the site at 
discontinuation or completion of treatment. The site personnel must ensure that 
the appropriate dose of each study drug is administered and that the drug 
accountability is performed and documented.

Immunotherapy-related Adverse Events 
Patients should be monitored for signs and symptoms of immunotherapy-related adverse 
events, which include but are not limited to the following:  
• 
Pneumonitis  
o For Grade 2 events, treat with systemic corticosteroids (1mg/kg daily 
prednisone equivalent). When symptoms improve to Grade 1 or less, 
steroid taper should be started and continued over no less than 4 weeks.  
o For Grade 3-4 events, immediately treat with intravenous steroids (1-
2mg/kg prednisone equivalent). Administer additional anti-inflammatory 
measures, as needed.  
o Add prophylactic antibiotics for opportunistic infections in the case of 
prolonged steroid administration. 
 
• 
Diarrhea/colitis Patients should be carefully monitored for signs and 
symptoms of enterocolitis (such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, blood or mucus 
in stool, with or without fever) and of bowel perforation (such as peritoneal 
signs and ileus).  
o All patients who experience diarrhea/colitis should be advised to drink 
liberal quantities of clear fluids. If sufficient oral fluid intake is not 
feasible, fluid and electrolytes should be substituted via IV infusion. For 
Grade 2 or higher diarrhea, consider GI consultation and endoscopy to 
confirm or rule out colitis.  
o For Grade 2 diarrhea/colitis, administer oral corticosteroids (1mg/kg 
daily prednisone equivalent).  
o For Grade 3 or 4 diarrhea/colitis, treat with intravenous steroids followed 
by high dose oral steroids (1-2mg/kg prednisone equivalent).  
o When symptoms improve to Grade 1 or less, steroid taper should be 
started and continued over no less than 4 weeks.  
 
• 
Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (if new onset, including diabetic ketoacidosis 
[DKA]) or ≥Grade 3 Hyperglycemia, if associated with ketosis 
(ketonuria) or metabolic acidosis (DKA)  
For T1DM or Grade 3-4 Hyperglycemia:  
o Insulin replacement therapy is recommended for Type I diabetes mellitus 
and for Grade 3-4 hyperglycemia associated with metabolic acidosis or 
ketonuria.  
o Evaluate patients with serum glucose and a metabolic panel, urine 
ketones, glycosylated hemoglobin, and C-peptide.  
 
• 
Hypophysitis  
o For Grade 2 events, treat with corticosteroids (1mg/kg daily prednisone 
equivalent). When symptoms improve to Grade 1 or less, steroid taper 
should be started and continued over no less than 4 weeks. Replacement 
of appropriate hormones may be required as the steroid dose is tapered.  
o For Grade 3-4 events, treat with an initial dose of IV corticosteroids (1-
2mg/kg prednisone equivalent) followed by oral corticosteroids. When 
symptoms improve to Grade 1 or less, steroid taper should be started and 
continued over no less than 4 weeks. Replacement of appropriate 
hormones may be required as the steroid dose is tapered.

Hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism Thyroid disorders can occur at any 
time during treatment. Monitor patients for changes in thyroid function (at 
the start of treatment, periodically during treatment, and as indicated based 
on clinical evaluation) and for clinical signs and symptoms of thyroid 
disorders.  
o Grade 2 hyperthyroidism events (and Grade 2-4 hypothyroidism):  
 
In hyperthyroidism, non-selective beta-blockers (e.g. propranolol) 
are suggested as initial therapy. 
 
In hypothyroidism, thyroid hormone replacement therapy, with 
levothyroxine or liothyroinine, is indicated per standard of care.  
o Grade 3-4 hyperthyroidism  
 
Treat with an initial dose of IV corticosteroid (1-2mg/kg prednisone 
equivalent) followed by oral corticosteroids. When symptoms 
improve to Grade 1 or less, steroid taper should be started and 
continued over no less than 4 weeks. Replacement of appropriate 
hormones may be required as the steroid dose is tapered.  
 
• 
Hepatic  
o For Grade 2 events, monitor liver function tests more frequently until 
returned to baseline values (consider weekly).  
 
Treat with IV or oral corticosteroids  
 
For Grade 3-4 events, treat with intravenous corticosteroids (1-
2mg/kg prednisone equivalent) for 24 to 48 hours.  
o When symptoms improve to Grade 1 or less, a steroid taper should be 
started and continued over no less than 4 weeks.  
 
• 
Renal failure or nephritis  
o For Grade 2 events, treat with corticosteroids.  
o For Grade 3-4 events, treat with systemic corticosteroids.  
o When symptoms improve to Grade 1 or less, steroid taper should be 
started and continued over no less than 4 weeks.  
 
•

Protocol Version Date: 18May2021 
Definitions 
Adverse Event 
Any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of a drug in humans, whether or not 
considered drug related.  
Suspected Adverse Reaction 
Any adverse event for which there is a reasonable possibility that the drug caused the adverse 
event. 
Expedited Reporting 
Events reported to sponsor within 24 hours, 5 days or 10 days of study team becoming aware of 
the event. 
Routine Reporting 
Events reported to sponsor via case report forms 
Events of Interest 
Events that would not typically be considered to meet the criteria for expedited reporting, but that 
for a specific protocol are being reported via expedited means in order to facilitate the review of 
safety data (may be requested by the FDA or the sponsor).  
10.1 
Adverse Event Characteristics 
CTCAE term (AE description) and grade: The descriptions and grading scales found 
in the revised NCI Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 
5.0 will be utilized for AE reporting. All appropriate treatment areas should have access 
to a copy of the CTCAE version 5.0. A copy of the CTCAE version 5.0 can be 
downloaded from the CTEP web site: 
a. Identify the grade and severity of the event using the CTCAE version 5.0. 
b. Determine whether the event is expected or unexpected (see Section 10.2). 
c. Determine if the adverse event is related to the study intervention (agent, treatment or 
procedure) (see Section 10.3). 
d. Determine whether the event must be reported as an expedited report. If yes, 
determine the timeframe/mechanism (see Section 10.4).  
e. Determine if other reporting is required (see Section 10.5). 
f. Note: All AEs reported via expedited mechanisms must also be reported via the 
routine data reporting mechanisms defined by the protocol (see Sections 10.6 and 
18.0). 
NOTE: A severe AE is NOT the same as a serious AE, which is defined in Section 10.4. 
10.2 
Expected vs. Unexpected Events  
Expected events - are those described within the Section 15.0 of the protocol, the study 
specific consent form, package insert (if applicable), and/or the investigator brochure, (if 
an investigator brochure is not required, otherwise described in the general 
investigational plan).  
Unexpected adverse events or suspected adverse reactions are those not listed in Section 
15.0 of the protocol, the study specific consent form, package insert (if applicable), or in 
the investigator brochure (or are not listed at the specificity or severity that has been 
observed); if an investigator brochure is not required or available, is not consistent with 
the risk information described in the general investigational plan. 
Unexpected also refers to adverse events or suspected adverse reactions that are 


MC1841 
33 
Amendment 2 
Protocol Version Date: 18May2021 
mentioned in the investigator brochure as occurring with a class of drugs but have not 
been observed with the drug under investigation. 
An investigational agent/intervention might exacerbate the expected AEs associated with a 
commercial agent. Therefore, if an expected AE (for the commercial agent) occurs with a 
higher degree of severity or specificity, expedited reporting is required. 
NOTE: *The consent form may contain study specific information at the discretion of the 
Principal Investigator; it is possible that this information may NOT be included in the 
protocol or the investigator brochure. Refer to protocol or IB for reporting needs. 
10.3 
Attribution to agent(s) or procedure 
When assessing whether an adverse event (AE) is related to a medical agent(s) medical or 
procedure, the following attribution categories are utilized: 
Definite - The AE is clearly related to the agent(s)/procedure. 
Probable - The AE is likely related to the agent(s)/procedure. 
Possible - The AE may be related to the agent(s)/procedure. 
Unlikely - The AE is doubtfully related to the agent(s)/procedure. 
Unrelated - The AE is clearly NOT related to the agent(s)/procedure. 
10.31 AEs Experienced Utilizing Investigational Agents and Commercial Agent(s) 
on the SAME (Combination) Arm 
NOTE: When a commercial agent(s) is (are) used on the same treatment arm as 
the investigational agent/intervention (also, investigational drug, biologic, 
cellular product, or other investigational therapy under an IND), the entire 
combination (arm) is then considered an investigational intervention for 
reporting. 
• 
An AE that occurs on a combination study must be assessed in accordance with 
the guidelines for investigational agents/interventions.  
• 
An AE that occurs prior to administration of the investigational agent/intervention 
must be assessed as specified in the protocol. In general, only Grade 4 and 5 AEs 
that are unexpected with at least possible attribution to the commercial agent 
require an expedited report, unless hospitalization is required. Refer to Section 
10.4 for specific AE reporting requirements or exceptions. 
• 
An investigational agent/intervention might exacerbate the expected AEs 
associated with a commercial agent. Therefore, if an expected AE (for the 
commercial agent) occurs with a higher degree of severity or specificity, 
expedited reporting is required. 
• 
An increased incidence of an expected adverse event (AE) is based on the 
patients treated for this study at their site. A list of known/expected AEs is 
reported in the package insert or the literature, including AEs resulting from 
a drug overdose. 
• 
Commercial agent expedited reports must be submitted to the FDA via 
MedWatch 3500A for Health Professionals (complete all three pages of the 
form).

Expedited Reporting 
For this protocol only, the following Adverse Events/Grades are expected to occur 
within this population and do not require Expedited Reporting. These events must still 
be reported via Routine Reporting (see Section 10.6).* 
*Report any clinically important increase in the rate of a serious suspected 
adverse reaction (at your study site) over that which is listed in the protocol or 
investigator brochure as an expedited event.  
*Report an expected event that is greater in severity or specificity than expected 
as an expedited event. 
*Specific protocol exceptions to expedited reporting should be reported 
expeditiously by investigators ONLY if they exceed the expected grade of the 
event.

Reporting of re-occurring SAEs 
ALL SERIOUS adverse events that meet the criteria outlined in table10.41 
MUST be immediately reported to the sponsor within the timeframes detailed in 
the corresponding table. This reporting includes, but is not limited to SAEs that 
re-occur again after resolution. 
10.5 
Other Required Reporting 
10.51 Unanticipated Problems Involving Risks to Subjects or Others (UPIRTSOS) 
Unanticipated Problems Involving Risks to Subjects or Others (UPIRTSOS) in 
general, include any incident, experience, or outcome that meets all of the 
following criteria: 
1. Unexpected (in terms of nature, severity, or frequency) given (a) the research 
procedures that are described in the protocol-related documents, such as the 
IRB-approved research protocol and informed consent document; and (b) the 
characteristics of the subject population being studied; 
2. Related or possibly related to participation in the research (in this guidance 
document, possibly related means there is a reasonable possibility that the 
incident, experience, or outcome may have been caused by the procedures 
involved in the research); and 
3. Suggests that the research places subjects or others at a greater risk of harm 
(including physical, psychological, economic, or social harm) than was 
previously known or recognized. 
Some unanticipated problems involve social or economic harm instead of the 
physical or psychological harm associated with adverse events. In other cases, 
unanticipated problems place subjects or others at increased risk of harm, but no 
harm occurs. 


MC1841 
37 
Amendment 2 
Protocol Version Date: 18May2021 
Note: If there is no language in the protocol indicating that pregnancy is not 
considered an adverse experience for this trial, and if the consent form does not 
indicate that subjects should not get pregnant/impregnate others, then any 
pregnancy in a subject/patient or a male patient’s partner (spontaneously 
reported) which occurs during the study or within 120 days of completing the 
study should be reported as a UPIRTSO. 
Mayo Clinic Cancer Center (MCCC) Institutions: 
If the event meets the criteria for IRB submission as a Reportable 
Event/UPIRTSO, provide the appropriate documentation and use the Mayo 
Clinic Cancer Center Expedited Event Report Form. The Mayo Clinic 
Compliance Unit will review and process the submission to the Mayo Clinic IRB 
and work with the IND Coordinator for submission to FDA. 
10.52 Death 
Note: A death on study requires both routine and expedited reporting 
regardless of causality, unless as noted below. Attribution to treatment or 
other cause must be provided. 
Any death occurring within 30 days of the last dose, regardless of attribution to 
an agent/intervention under an IND requires expedited reporting within 24-
hours. 
Any death occurring greater than 30 days with an attribution of possible, 
probable, or definite to an agent/intervention under an IND requires expedited 
reporting within 24-hours. 
Reportable categories of Death  
• 
Death attributable to a CTCAE term. 
• 
Death Neonatal: A disorder characterized by cessation of life during the 
first 28 days of life.  
• 
Death NOS: A cessation of life that cannot be attributed to a CTCAE term 
associated with Grade 5. 
• 
Sudden death NOS: A sudden (defined as instant or within one hour of the 
onset of symptoms) or an unobserved cessation of life that cannot be 
attributed to a CTCAE term associated with Grade 5. 
• 
Death due to progressive disease should be reported as Grade 5 “Disease 
progression” under the system organ class (SOC) “General disorders and 
administration site conditions.” Evidence that the death was a 
manifestation of underlying disease (e.g., radiological changes suggesting 
tumor growth or progression: clinical deterioration associated with a 
disease process) should be submitted. 
10.53 Secondary Malignancy 
• 
A secondary malignancy is a cancer caused by treatment for a previous 
malignancy (e.g., treatment with investigational agent/intervention, radiation 
or chemotherapy). A secondary malignancy is not considered a metastasis of 
the initial neoplasm. 
• 
All secondary malignancies that occur following treatment with an agent under 
an IND will be reported per SAE timelines. Three options are available to 
describe the event: 


MC1841 
38 
Amendment 2 
Protocol Version Date: 18May2021 
o Leukemia secondary to oncology chemotherapy (e.g., Acute Myeloctyic 
Leukemia [AML]) 
o Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) 
o Treatment-related secondary malignancy 
• 
Any malignancy possibly related to cancer treatment (including AML/MDS) 
should also be reported via the routine reporting mechanisms outlined in each 
protocol. 
10.54 Second Malignancy 
A second malignancy is one unrelated to the treatment of a prior malignancy (and is 
NOT a metastasis from the initial malignancy). Second malignancies require ONLY 
routine reporting unless otherwise specified. 
10.55 Pregnancy, Fetal Death, and Death Neonatal  
If a female subject (or female partner of a male subject) taking investigational 
product becomes pregnant, the subject taking should notify the Investigator, and 
the pregnant female should be advised to call her healthcare provider 
immediately. The patient should have appropriate follow-up as deemed necessary 
by her physician. If the baby is born with a birth defect or anomaly, a second 
expedited report is required. 
Prior to obtaining private information about a pregnant woman and her infant, the 
investigator must obtain consent from the pregnant woman and the newborn 
infant’s parent or legal guardian before any data collection can occur. A consent 
form will need to be submitted to the IRB for these subjects if a pregnancy 
occurs. If informed consent is not obtained, no information may be collected. 
In cases of fetal death, miscarriage or abortion, the mother is the patient. In cases 
where the child/fetus experiences a serious adverse event other than fetal death, 
the child/fetus is the patient. 
NOTE: When submitting Mayo Expedited Adverse Event Report reports for 
“Pregnancy”, “Pregnancy loss”, or “Neonatal loss”, the potential risk of exposure 
of the fetus to the investigational agent(s) or chemotherapy agent(s) should be 
documented in the “Description of Event” section. Include any available medical 
documentation. Include this Form. 
10.551 
Pregnancy 
Pregnancy should be reported in an expedited manner as Grade 3 
“Pregnancy, puerperium and perinatal conditions - Other 
(pregnancy)” under the Pregnancy, puerperium and perinatal 
conditions SOC. Pregnancy should be followed until the outcome is 
known. 
10.552 
Fetal Death 
Fetal death is defined in CTCAE as “A disorder characterized by death 
in utero; failure of the product of conception to show evidence of 
respiration, heartbeat, or definite movement of a voluntary muscle after 
expulsion from the uterus, without possibility of resuscitation.” 
Any fetal death should be reported expeditiously, as Grade 4 
“Pregnancy, puerperium and perinatal conditions - Other 
(pregnancy loss)” under the Pregnancy, puerperium and perinatal 
conditions SOC. 


MC1841 
39 
Amendment 2 
Protocol Version Date: 18May2021 
10.553 
Death Neonatal 
Neonatal death, defined in CTCAE as “A disorder characterized by 
cessation of life occurring during the first 28 days of life” that is felt by 
the investigator to be at least possibly due to the investigational 
agent/intervention, should be reported expeditiously.  
A neonatal death should be reported expeditiously as Grade 4 
“General disorders and administration - Other (neonatal loss)” 
under the General disorders and administration SOC.  
10.6 
Required Routine Reporting

Late Occurring Adverse Events 
Refer to the instructions in the Forms Packet (or electronic data entry screens, as 
applicable) regarding the submission of late occurring AEs following completion of the 
Active Monitoring Phase (i.e., compliance with Test Schedule in Section 4.0). 
10.8 
GSK - Additional Event Reporting Instructions 
10.81    Pregnancy Reporting  
The Sponsor Institution must report all pregnancies associated with GSK product 
including follow up outcomes to GSK within 24 hours of awareness.  
Each pregnancy must be reported on a Pregnancy Notification Form within 24 
hours of becoming aware of the pregnancy. Pregnancy is not an AE, and 
therefore does not need to be reported as an AE unless there is a suspicion that 
the study drug may have interfered with the effectiveness of a contraceptive 
medication.  
An elective abortion without complications should not be regarded as an AE, 
however, it should be reported as the outcome to the pregnancy on the Pregnancy 
Follow-Up Form. Therapeutic abortions should be reported as a treatment 
procedure; the reason for the therapeutic abortion should be reported on the 
Pregnancy Follow-Up Form and as an AE. Hospitalization for normal delivery of 
a healthy newborn should not be considered an SAE. 
Any SAE that occurs during pregnancy must be recorded on the Pregnancy 
Follow-Up Form reported as an SAE on the SAE Report Form (e.g., maternal 
serious complications, therapeutic abortion, ectopic pregnancy, stillbirth, 
neonatal death, congenital anomaly, birth defect) and reported to the Sponsor 
Institution and GSK within 24 hours. Hospitalization for normal delivery of a 
healthy newborn should not be considered an SAE.  
10.82 Adverse Event of Special Interest (AESI)  
An Adverse Event of Special Interest is defined as any AE (serious or non-
serious) that is of scientific and medical concern specific to the study treatment, 
for which ongoing monitoring and rapid communication to the Sponsor 
Institution and to GSK is required.  
Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESI) for niraparib include the following:  
• Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) 
• Secondary cancers (new malignancies [other than MDS or AML]) 
• Pneumonitis 


MC1841 
41 
Amendment 2 
Protocol Version Date: 18May2021 
• Embryo-fetal toxicity 
AESIs should be reported on SAE Report Forms whether serious or not, as 
follows: 
• MDS and AML along with other secondary cancers should be reported to 
the Sponsor Institution and to GSK upon awareness for any patient who 
has received niraparib (regardless of the timeframe since the last dose). 
• Pneumonitis should be reported to the Sponsor Institution and to GSK 
through 90 days after the last dose of niraparib. 
• Embryo-fetal toxicity should be reported as outlined in the Pregnancy 
reporting section. 
10.83 Special Situations: Abuse, Misuse, Medication Errors, Overdose, and Accidental 
or Occupational Exposure  
• Abuse: is the persistent or sporadic, intentional excessive use of the study 
treatment which is accompanied by harmful physical or psychological effects.  
• Misuse: medicinal product is intentionally and inappropriately used not in 
accordance with the authorized/approved product information. 
• Medication error: is any preventable incident that may cause or lead to 
inappropriate study treatment use or patient harm while the study treatment is 
in the control of the health care professionals or patients. Such incident may be 
due to health care professional practice, product labeling, packaging and 
preparation, procedures for administration, and systems, including the 
following: prescribing, order communication, nomenclature, compounding, 
dispensing, distribution, administration, education, monitoring, and use. 
• Overdose: is a deliberate or accidental administration of study treatment to a 
study patient, at a dose greater than that which was assigned to that patient per 
the study protocol and under the direction of the Investigator. If an overdose 
with a GSK product, the Sponsor Institution and GSK should be notified 
immediately, and the patient should be observed closely for AEs. Associated 
AEs should be treated and monitored by the Investigator. The dosage of study 
drug administered, any associated AEs, and/or treatment provided to the 
patient because of the overdose, should be reported.  
• Accidental /Occupational exposure: is the unintentional exposure to a study 
treatment as a result of one’s professional or non-professional occupation, or 
accidental exposure to a non-professional to whom exposure was not intended 
(i.e., study product given to wrong patient).  
Reporting Special Situations: All occurrences of abuse, misuse, medication error, 
overdose, and accidental or occupational exposure associated with a GSK 
product must be reported on a GSK SAE Report Form with associated coversheet 
to the Sponsor Institution and to GSK within 5 business days of awareness 
regardless of whether or not an AE or SAE has occurred. If the abuse, misuse, 
medication error, overdose, or accidental / occupational exposure is associated 
with an AE, an SAE Report Form must also be submitted to the Sponsor 
Institution and to GSK within 24 hours of awareness.  
 
 


MC1841

10.84 Reporting to GSK 
The Sponsor Institution must report all SAEs and all follow up information to 
GSK on a GSK SAE Report Form, accompanied by the GSK coversheet within 
24 hours of becoming aware of the initial event or follow-up information.  
The Sponsor Institution must provide a causality assessment and must sign and 
date all SAE Report Forms. 
If supporting documentation is included in the submission to GSK (e.g., hospital 
reports, consultant reports, death certificates, autopsy reports, etc.), please redact 
any patient identifiers (including Medical Record number). 
GSK SAE, Pregnancy, and AESI Reporting Information 
OAX37649@gsk.com 
Fax Number: +44(0) 20 8754 7822 
On at least an annual basis, the Sponsor Institution will provide a copy of the 
safety reports submitted to applicable Regulatory Authorities or IECs. Annual 
reports should be provided to GSK within 3 business days of submission to the 
applicable regulatory body. 
10.85 Suspected Unexpected Serious Adverse Reactions (SUSARs)  
Per regulatory requirements, if an event is assessed by the Sponsor Institution as 
a Serious Unexpected Adverse Reaction (SUSAR), it is the responsibility of the 
Sponsor Institution to submit the SUSAR to Regulatory Authorities according to 
applicable regulations. 
In addition, the SUSAR will be distributed to the Investigators/sites utilizing a 
Council for International Organizations of Medical Sciences (CIOMS) report 
form, or the MedWatch 3500A form). The Investigator/site will submit a copy of 
the report to their respective Institutional Review Board (IRB) or Independent 
Ethics Committee (IEC) and GSK per the governing institutional requirements 
and in compliance with local laws and guidelines. 
10.86 Reporting Product Complaints for GSK Products 
Any written, electronic or oral communication that alleges dissatisfaction related 
to manufactured clinical drug product with regards to its manufacturing, testing, 
labeling, packaging, or shipping, must be reported by the Sponsor Institution or 
qualified designee to GSK within 1 working day of first becoming aware of the 
possible defect to GSKQA at tso.qa@gsk.com .   The product and packaging 
components in question, if available, must be stored in a secure area under 
specified storage conditions until it is determined whether the product is required 
to be returned for investigation of the defect.  If the product complaint is 
associated with an SAE, the SAE must be reported separately in accordance with 
the protocol, and the SAE report should mention the product quality complaint. 
 
 


MC1841 
43 
Amendment 2 
Protocol Version Date: 18May2021 
10.87 GSK Reporting Requirements for ALL Serious Adverse Events:  
The following must be reported: 
Any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose; 
• 
Results in death;  
• 
Is life threatening (i.e., an event in which the patient was at risk of death at 
the time of the event; it does not refer to an event that hypothetically might 
have caused death if it were more severe);  
• 
Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization;  
• 
Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity;  
• 
Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect; or 
Is an important medical event (defined as follows: --Medical and scientific 
judgment should be exercised in determining whether situations or events 
should be considered serious adverse events:  an important medical event 
may not be immediately life-threatening or result in death or require 
hospitalization but may jeopardize the patient or require intervention to 
prevent one of the above outcomes.  Examples of such events are allergic 
bronchospasm, blood dyscrasias, or convulsions that may require intensive 
treatment in an emergency room or at home but do not result in 
hospitalization, development of drug) 
11.0 
Treatment Evaluation/Measurement of Effect  
Response and progression will be evaluated in this study using the new international criteria 
proposed by the revised Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) guidelines 
(version 1.1)17 and iRECIST criteria18 which is discussed further starting in Section 11.5 below. 
Since iRECIST still uses RECIST 1.1 principles, the RECIST 1.1 criteria is also in this section as 
well.  
Changes in the largest diameter (unidimensional measurement) of the tumors and the short axis 
measurements in the case of lymph nodes are used in the RECIST guideline. 
11.1 
Schedule of Evaluations 
For the purposes of this study, patients should be reevaluated every 6 weeks.  
11.2 
Definitions of Measurable and Non-Measurable Disease 
11.21 Measurable Disease 
• A non-nodal lesion is considered measurable if its longest diameter can be 
accurately measured as ≥2.0 cm with chest x-ray, or as ≥1.0 cm with CT scan, 
CT component of a PET/CT, or MRI.  
• A superficial non-nodal lesion is measurable if its longest diameter is ≥1.0 cm 
in diameter as assessed using calipers (e.g. skin nodules) or imaging. In the 
case of skin lesions, documentation by color photography, including a ruler to 
estimate the size of the lesion, is recommended. 
• A malignant lymph node is considered measurable if its short axis is >1.5 cm 
when assessed by CT scan (CT scan slice thickness recommended to be no 
greater than 5 mm).  
• Tumor lesions in a previously irradiated area are considered measurable 
disease under the following conditions:  


MC1841 
44 
Amendment 2 
Protocol Version Date: 18May2021 
- If there is a soft tissue component that has grown since completion of 
radiation. 
- Bone metastases with a soft tissue component are considered measureable.  
11.22 Non-Measurable Disease 
• All other lesions (or sites of disease) are considered non-measurable disease, 
including pathological nodes (those with a short axis ≥1.0 to <1.5 cm). Bone 
lesions, 
leptomeningeal 
disease, 
ascites, 
pleural/pericardial 
effusions, 
lymphangitis cutis/pulmonis, inflammatory breast disease, and abdominal 
masses (not followed by CT or MRI), are considered as non-measurable as 
well. 
• Note: ‘Cystic lesions’ thought to represent cystic metastases can be considered 
as measurable lesions, if they meet the definition of measurability described 
above. However, if non-cystic lesions are present in the same patient, these are 
preferred for selection as target lesions. In addition, lymph nodes that have a 
short axis <1.0 cm are considered non-pathological (i.e., normal) and should 
not be recorded or followed. 
11.3 
Guidelines for Evaluation of Measurable Disease 
11.31 Measurement Methods 
• All measurements should be recorded in metric notation (i.e., decimal fractions 
of centimeters) using a ruler or calipers. 
• The same method of assessment and the same technique must be used to 
characterize each identified and reported lesion at baseline and during follow-
up. For patients having only lesions measuring at least 1 cm to less than 2 cm 
must use CT imaging for both pre- and post-treatment tumor assessments.  
• Imaging-based evaluation is preferred to evaluation by clinical examination 
when both methods have been used at the same evaluation to assess the 
antitumor effect of a treatment.  
11.32 Acceptable Modalities for Measurable Disease 
• Conventional CT and MRI: This guideline has defined measurability of lesions 
on CT scan based on the assumption that CT slice thickness is 5 mm or less. If 
CT scans have slice thickness greater than 5 mm, the minimum size for a 
measurable lesion should be twice the slice thickness. 
o As with CT, if an MRI is performed, the technical specifications of the 
scanning sequences used should be optimized for the evaluation of the type 
and site of disease. The lesions should be measured on the same pulse 
sequence. Ideally, the same type of scanner should be used and the image 
acquisition protocol should be followed as closely as possible to prior 
scans. Body scans should be performed with breath-hold scanning 
techniques, if possible. 
• PET-CT: If the site can document that the CT performed as part of a PET-CT is 
of identical diagnostic quality to a diagnostic CT (with IV and oral contrast), 
then the CT portion of the PET-CT can be used for RECIST measurements and 
can be used interchangeably with conventional CT in accurately measuring 
cancer lesions over time.

Amendment 2 
Protocol Version Date: 18May2021 
• FDG-PET: FDG-PET scanning is allowed to complement CT scanning in 
assessment of progressive disease [PD] and particularly possible 'new' disease. 
A ‘positive’ FDG-PET scanned lesion is defined as one which is FDG avid 
with an update greater than twice that of the surrounding tissue on the 
attenuation corrected image; otherwise, an FDG-PET scanned lesion is 
considered ‘negative.’ New lesions on the basis of FDG-PET imaging can be 
identified according to the following algorithm: 
o Negative FDG-PET at baseline with a positive FDG-PET at follow-up is a 
sign of PD based on a new lesion. 
o No FDG-PET at baseline and a positive FDG-PET at follow-up:  
 If the positive FDG-PET at follow-up corresponds to a new site of disease 
confirmed by CT, this is PD.  
 If the positive FDG-PET at follow-up is not confirmed as a new site of 
disease on CT at the same evaluation, additional follow-up CT scans (i.e., 
additional follow-up scans at least 4 weeks later) are needed to determine if 
there is truly progression occurring at that site. In this situation, the date of 
PD will be the date of the initial abnormal PDG-PET scan.  
 If the positive FDG-PET at follow-up corresponds to a pre-existing site of 
disease on CT that is not progressing on the basis of the anatomic images, 
it is not classified as PD. 
FDG-PET may be used to upgrade a response to a CR in a manner similar to a 
biopsy in cases where a residual radiographic abnormality is thought to represent 
fibrosis or scarring. The use of FDG-PET in this circumstance has been described 
in the protocol and supported by disease-specific medical literature for the 
indication  
However, it must be acknowledged that both approaches may lead to false 
positive CR due to limitations of FDG-PET and biopsy resolution/sensitivity. 
11.33 Measurement at Follow-up Evaluation:  
The cytological confirmation of the neoplastic origin of any effusion that appears 
or worsens during treatment when the measurable tumor has met criteria for 
response or stable disease is mandatory to differentiate between response or 
stable disease (an effusion may be a side effect of the treatment) and progressive 
disease. 
Cytologic and histologic techniques can be used to differentiate between PR and 
CR in rare cases (e.g., residual lesions in tumor types such as germ cell tumors, 
where known residual benign tumors can remain.) 
11.4 
Measurement of Treatment/Intervention Effect 
11.41 Target Lesions & Target Lymph Nodes 
• The protocol defined irradiated tumor will not be considered for response in the 
primary endpoint. 
• The protocol defined irradiated tumor will be considered for secondary 
endpoint response. 
• Measurable lesions (as defined in Section 11.21) up to a maximum of 5 lesions, 
representative of all involved organs, should be identified as “Target Lesions” 


MC1841 
46 
Amendment 2 
Protocol Version Date: 18May2021 
and recorded and measured at baseline. These lesions can be non-nodal or 
nodal (as defined in Section 11.21), where no more than 2 lesions are from the 
same organ and no more than 2 malignant nodal lesions are selected.  
• Note: If fewer than 5 (for phase III trials replace with “3”) target lesions and 
target lymph nodes are identified (as there often will be), there is no reason to 
perform additional studies beyond those specified in the protocol to discover 
new lesions.  
• Target lesions and target lymph nodes should be selected on the basis of their 
size, be representative of all involved sites of disease, but in addition should be 
those that lend themselves to reproducible repeated measurements. It may be 
the case that, on occasion, the largest lesion (or malignant lymph node) does 
not lend itself to reproducible measurements in which circumstance the next 
largest lesion (or malignant lymph node) which can be measured reproducibly 
should be selected.  
• Baseline Sum of Dimensions (BSD): A sum of the longest diameter for all 
target lesions plus the sum of the short axis of all the target lymph nodes will 
be calculated and reported as the baseline sum of dimensions (BSD). The BSD 
will be used as reference to further characterize any objective tumor response 
in the measurable dimension of the disease.  
• Post-Baseline Sum of the Dimensions (PBSD): A sum of the longest diameter 
for all target lesions plus the sum of the short axis of all the target lymph nodes 
will be calculated and reported as the post-baseline sum of dimensions (PBSD). 
If the radiologist is able to provide an actual measure for the target lesion (or 
target lymph node), that should be recorded, even if it is below 0.5 cm. If the 
target lesion (or target lymph node) is believed to be present and is faintly seen 
but too small to measure, a default value of 0.5 cm should be assigned. If it is 
the opinion of the radiologist that the target lesion or target lymph node has 
likely disappeared, the measurement should be recorded as 0 cm. 
• The minimum sum of the dimensions (MSD) is the minimum of the BSD and 
the PBSD. 
11.42 Non-Target Lesions & Non-Target Lymph Nodes 
Non-measurable sites of disease (Section 11.22) are classified as non- target 
lesions or non-target lymph nodes and should also be recorded at baseline. These 
lesions and lymph nodes should be followed in accord with 11.433. 
11.43 Response Criteria 
All target lesions and target lymph nodes followed by CT/MRI/PET-CT/Chest X-
ray/physical examination must be measured on re-evaluation at evaluation times 
specified in Section 11.1. Specifically, a change in objective status to either a PR 
or CR cannot be done without re-measuring target lesions and target lymph 
nodes.  
Note: Non-target lesions and non-target lymph nodes should be evaluated at each 
assessment, especially in the case of first response or confirmation of response. 
In selected circumstances, certain non-target organs may be evaluated less 
frequently. For example, bone scans may need to be repeated only when 
complete response is identified in target disease or when progression in bone is 
suspected.

11.431 Evaluation of Target Lesions 
o Complete Response (CR): All of the following must be true: 
 
Disappearance of all target lesions. 
 
Each target lymph node must have reduction in short axis to < 
1.0 cm. 
o Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in PBSD (sum of the 
longest diameter for all target lesions plus the sum of the short axis 
of all the target lymph nodes at current evaluation) taking as 
reference the BSD (see Section 11.41). 
o Progression (PD): At least one of the following must be true: 
 
At least one new malignant lesion, which also includes any 
lymph node that was normal at baseline (<1.0 cm short axis) and 
increased to ≥1.0 cm short axis during follow-up.  
 
At least a 20% increase in PBSD (sum of the longest diameter 
for all target lesions plus the sum of the short axis of all the 
target lymph nodes at current evaluation) taking as reference the 
MSD (Section 11.41). In addition, the PBSD must also 
demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 0.5 cm from the 
MSD.  
 
See Section 11.32 for details in regards to the requirements for 
PD via FDG-PET imaging. 
o Stable Disease (SD): Neither sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR, 
nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD taking as reference the 
MSD. 
11.432 Evaluation of Non-Target Lesions & Non-target Lymph Nodes 
o Complete Response (CR): All of the following must be true: 
 
Disappearance of all non-target lesions.  
 
Each non-target lymph node must have a reduction in short axis 
to <1.0 cm. 
o Non-CR/Non-PD: Persistence of one or more non-target lesions or 
non-target lymph nodes. 
o Progression (PD): At least one of the following must be true: 
 
At least one new malignant lesion, which also includes any 
lymph node that was normal at baseline (< 1.0 cm short axis) and 
increased to ≥ 1.0 cm short axis during follow-up.  
 
Unequivocal progression of existing non-target lesions and non-
target lymph nodes. (NOTE: Unequivocal progression should not 
normally trump target lesion and target lymph node status. It 
must be representative of overall disease status change.)  
 
See Section 11.32 for details in regards to the requirements for 
PD via FDG-PET imaging.

11.45 Symptomatic Deterioration  
Patients with global deterioration of health status requiring discontinuation of 
treatment without objective evidence of disease progression at that time, and not 
either related to study treatment or other medical conditions, should be reported 
as PD due to “symptomatic deterioration.” Every effort should be made to 
document the objective progression even after discontinuation of treatment due to 
symptomatic deterioration. 
11.5 
Immune-Related Response Assessment (iRECIST) 
All study endpoints requiring measurement data will be assessed per RECIST criteria 
(defined above). Patients will not be required to end study participation at the first 
evidence of progression since Immunotherapeutics may result in infiltration of immune 
cells leading to transient increase in the size of malignant lesions, or undetectable lesions 
becoming detectable. For this reason, iRECIST18 will be utilized in order to help to make 
the decision to remove a patient from the study after first evidence of progression. The 
criteria are identical to those of RECIST 1.1 in many respects but have been adapted to 
account for instances where an increase in tumor burden, or the appearance of new 
lesions, does not reflect true tumor progression. Key differences are described below. All 
responses defined using iRECIST criteria are designated with a prefix. 


MC1841 
49 
Amendment 2 
Protocol Version Date: 18May2021 
11.51 Confirming Progression  
Unlike RECIST 1.1, iRECIST requires the confirmation of progression and uses 
the terms iUPD (unconfirmed progression) and iCPD (confirmed progression). 
Confirmatory scans should be performed at least 4 weeks, but not longer than 9 
weeks after iUPD. 
For patients that had an iUPD in the previous assessment, iCPD is confirmed in 
two ways: 
1) Existing iUPD gets worse in any lesion type (target, non-target, or new 
lesions) which contributed to the current iUPD status (a patient can have 
more than one of the following sources of iUPD). 
If iUPD was at least 
partially based on… 
Then iCPD is confirmed if… 
Target lesions 
A cumulative increase (can occur over multiple 
assessments) of at least 5 mm in the absolute 
value of the sum from the first occurrence of the 
current iUPD 
Non-target lesions 
Any increase in the non-target lesion burden 
from the first occurrence of the current iUPD 
New lesions 
A cumulative increase (can occur over multiple 
assessments) of at least 5 mm in the absolute 
value of the sum of those considered to be target 
new lesions or any new lesions (from the first 
occurrence of the current iUPD) 
2) RECIST 1.1 criteria are met in lesion types (target, non-target, or new 
lesions) which did not contribute to current iUPD status, including the 
appearance of new lesions. 
If a patient meets either (or both) of these criteria, they are considered to have 
confirmed progression (iCPD). See Appendix III for examples of confirming 
progression. 
11.52 New Lesions  
New lesions should be assessed and measured as they appear using RECIST 1.1 
criteria, and recorded as New Lesion-Target (NLT) and New Lesion-Non-Target 
(NLNT) to allow clear differentiation from baseline target and non-target lesions. 
New lesions may either meet the criteria of NLT or NLNT to drive iUPD (or 
iCPD). However, the measurements of NLT should NOT be included in the sum 
of measures of original target lesions identified at baseline. 
Progression is confirmed in the New Lesion category if the next imaging 
assessment, conducted at least 4 weeks (but not more than 9 weeks) after iUPD 
confirms further progression from iUPD with either an increase of at least 5 mm 
in the absolute value of the sum of NLT OR and increase (but not necessarily 
unequivocal increase) in the size of NLNT lesions OR the appearance of new 
lesions.

15.0 
Drug Information 
15.1 
TSR-042 (dostarlimab) 
15.11  Background 
TSR-042 is a humanized monoclonal antibody (mAb) of the immunoglobulin G4 
(IgG4) isotype that binds with high affinity to PD-1, resulting in inhibition of 
binding to PD-L1 and PD-L2. TSR-042 is produced by recombinant DNA 
technology in a mammalian expression system using a stable Chinse hamster 
ovary (CHO) cell line. 
15.12 Formulation 
TSR-042 50 mg/mL drug product is a single use sterile liquid formulation that 
can readily be diluted in an IV solution for intravenous administration. It is a pH 
6.0 formulation containing 50 mg/ml TSR-042, 25 mM sodium citrate, 100 mM 
arginine, 31 mM sodium chloride, and 0.02% polysorbate 80. The deliverable 
volume in each vial is 10 mL.15.13 
 
15.13 Preparation and storage 
The product should be stored between 2°C and 8°C, and in accordance with the 
Pharmacy Manual or protocol as provided by the Sponsor. 
15.14 Administration 
TSR-042 is administered as an intravenous infusion in accordance with the 
Storage and Handling Guidelines provided by GSK.  
15.15 Pharmacokinetic information 
Absorption: TSR-042 is administered IV, thus absorption is not 
applicable. 
Distribution: The Vss of TSR-042 was determined in subjects participating in 
Part 1 of Study 4010-01-001 following a 30-minute IV infusion. The mean Vss 
was 74.2, 71.7, and 60.7 mL/kg following the administration of 1, 3, and 10 
mg/kg, respectively. These results suggest a limited distribution outside the 
vascular space, which is consistent with the behavior of endogenous IgG.  
 
Metabolism: TSR-042 is a therapeutic mAb IgG4, which is expected to be 
catabolized into small peptides, amino acids, and small carbohydrates by 
lysosome through fluid-phase or receptor-mediated endocytosis.  
Elimination: The clearance of TSR-042 was determined in subjects participating 
in Part 1 of Study 4010-01-001 following single IV infusion. The mean 
clearances were 0.201, 0.117, and 


MC1841 
56 
Amendment 2 
Protocol Version Date: 18May2021 
0.152 mL/h/kg for the 1, 3, and 10 mg/kg dose groups, respectively. Body weight 
(range 45.6 to 145.6 kg) was not a significant covariant for TSR-042 clearance. 
The estimated terminal t½ was approximately 13 to 18 days.  
15.16 Potential Drug Interactions 
No drug-drug interaction studies have been conducted. Monoclonal antibodies 
such as TSR-042 are not substrates for cytochrome P450 or drug transporters, 
and are unlikely to be cytokine modulators. Additionally, pharmacokinetic drug-
drug interactions of TSR-042 with small molecule drugs are not expected. There 
is no evidence of drug-drug interactions mediated by non-specific clearance of 
lysosome degradation for antibodies. 
15.17 Known potential adverse events 
Common potential adverse events (>10%): 
Central nervous system: Fatigue 
Dermatologic: Pruritus, rash, maculopapular rash 
Endocrine & metabolic: immune-mediate endocrinopathy – especially thyroid, 
pituitary and adrenal  
Gastrointestinal: Nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, decreased appetite 
Hematologic: Anemia 
Neuromuscular & skeletal: arthralgia  
Less common potential adverse events, 1% - 10%: 
Hepatic: increased AST, increased ALT 
Respiratory: immune-mediated pneumonitis—dyspnea, chest pain, cough 
Rare potential adverse events, <1%: 
Gastrointestinal: immune-mediated colitis 
15.18 Drug procurement 
Investigational TSR-042 will be supplied free of charge by GSK. 
Outdated or remaining drug is to be destroyed on-site as per procedures in place 
at each institution. 
15.2 
Niraparib (Zejula®, formerly MK-4827) 
15.21 Background 
Niraparib is an orally available, potent, highly selective poly (adenosine 
diphosphate [ADP]-ribose) polymerase (PARP)1 and PARP2 inhibitor being 
developed as a monotherapy agent for tumors with defects in the homologous 
recombination (HR) DNA repair pathway and as a sensitizing agent in 
combination with cytotoxic agents and radiotherapy as well as in combination 
with immune-oncology biologics. 
15.22 Formulation 
Investigational Niraparib is available for clinical trials as 100 mg capsules filled 
with a dry blend of niraparib tosylate monohydrate, lactose monohydrate, and 
magnesium stearate in a hard gelatin capsule.  
15.23 Preparation and storage 
Niraparib 100 mg capsules are packaged in high density polyethylene (HDPE) 
bottles fitted with child-resistant plastic closures. Niraparib 100-mg capsules 


MC1841 
57 
Amendment 2 
Protocol Version Date: 18May2021 
have a proposed shelf-life of up to 36 months when stored in the intended 
container closure system and under the conditions specified in the Storage and 
Handling Guidelines. 
15.24 Administration 
Capsules should be administered once daily at approximately the same time each 
day.  
Food does not significantly affect the absorption of niraparib; therefore, niraparib 
may be taken without regard to meals. 
If a patient vomits or misses (greater than 12 hours from normal dosing time) a 
dose of niraparib, an additional dose should not be taken. The next dose should 
be taken at the regularly scheduled time.  
15.25 Pharmacokinetic information 
Niraparib exhibits linear pharmacokinetics (PK), and exposure is dose 
proportional. Absorption and clearance are dose-independent (range: 30 to 400 
mg). 
Absorption: Following a single-dose administration of 300-mg niraparib under 
fasting conditions, niraparib was measurable in plasma within 30 minutes, and 
the mean Cmax for niraparib was reached in about 3 hours. Following multiple-
oral doses of niraparib from 30 mg to 400 mg QD, accumulation of niraparib was 
approximately 2-fold. 
The systemic exposures (Cmax and AUC) to niraparib increased in a dose-
proportional manner when the dose of niraparib increased from 30 mg to 400 mg. 
The absolute bioavailability of niraparib is approximately 73%, indicating 
minimal first-pass effect. 
Concomitant intake of a high-fat meal did not significantly affect the PK of 
niraparib after administration of 300 mg of niraparib. 
Distribution: Niraparib was moderately bound to human plasma proteins 
(approximately 83.0%). The apparent Vd/F was 1220 L, indicating extensive 
tissue distribution of niraparib. In a population PK analysis, the Vd/F of niraparib 
was 1074 L in patients with cancer. 
Metabolism: Niraparib is metabolized primarily by CEs to form a major inactive 
metabolite, M1. In a mass balance study, M1 and M10 (the subsequently formed 
M1 glucuronides) were the major circulating metabolites. The mean t½ of M1 
was 88 hours. The exposure ratio of M1 to niraparib was approximately 1.3- to 
2.2- fold in plasma. 
Elimination: Following a single oral 300-mg dose of niraparib, the mean t½ of 
niraparib ranged from 48 to 51 hours (approximately 2 days). In a population PK 
analysis, the CL/F of niraparib was 16.2 L/h in patients with cancer. Niraparib is 
eliminated primarily through the hepatobiliary and renal routes. Following 
administration of a single oral 300-mg dose of [14C]-niraparib, on average, 
86.2% (range: 71% to 91%) of the dose was recovered in urine and feces over 21 
days. Radioactive recovery in urine accounted for 47.5% (range: 33.4% to 
60.2%) and in feces for 38.8% (range: 28.3% to 47.0%) of the dose. In pooled 
samples collected over 6 days, 40.0% of the dose was recovered in the urine 
primarily as metabolites, and 31.6% of the dose was recovered in the feces 
primarily as unchanged niraparib. 


MC1841 
58 
Amendment 2 
Protocol Version Date: 18May2021 
15.26 Potential Drug Interactions 
No formal drug interaction studies have been performed with niraparib. Neither 
niraparib nor the major metabolite M1 is an inhibitor of any drug-metabolizing 
CYP enzymes. A clinically meaningful drug interaction via inhibition of CYPs is 
highly unlikely. 
Niraparib weakly induces CYP1A2 in vitro; therefore, investigators should be 
advised to use caution with drugs that are sensitive substrates for CYP1A2 with a 
narrow therapeutic range, i.e., theophylline and tizanidine. M1 is not a CYP1A2 
inducer.  
15.27 Potential adverse events  
Common potential adverse events (>10%):  
Cardiac: Hypertension, palpitations   
Central nervous system: Fatigue, headache, insomnia, dizziness  
Gastrointestinal: Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation,  abdominal pain, 
dyspepsia, dysgeusia   
Genitourinary: Urinary Tract Infection  
Hematologic: Anemia, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia 
Neuromuscular & skeletal: back pain, arthralgia  
Respiratory: Cough, Dyspnea, nasopharyngitis 
Less common potential adverse events, 1% - 10%: 
Cardiac: Tachycardia, peripheral edema,  
Central nervous system: Depression, anxiety 
Endocrine & metabolic: Hypokalemia, increased gamma-glutamyl transferase  
Gastrointestinal: mucositis, stomatitis, dry mouth   
General: decrease in weight 
Hematologic: leukopenia, 
Hepatic: increased AST, increased ALT 
Ophthalmic: Conjunctivitis  
Neuromuscular: myalgia,  
Renal: Increased serum creatinine 
Respiratory: epistaxis 
Rare potential adverse events <1%: 
Acute myelocytic leukemia, hypertensive crisis, myelodysplastic syndrome 
15.28 Drug procurement 
Investigational Niraparib will be supplied free of charge by GSK. 
Outdated or remaining drug is to be destroyed on-site as per procedures in place 
at each institution.  
15.29 Nursing Guidelines

15.294 
Dyspnea and cough have been seen. In addition isolated cases of 
pneumonitis have been seen. Instruct patient to report any shortness of 
breath to the study team. 
15.295 
Pain including headache, back and extremity pain have been reported. 
Administer analgesics as needed and assess for their effectiveness. 
15.296 
Monitor CBC w/differential as anemia, thrombocytopenia, and 
neutropenia are common. Instruct patients to report any unusual 
bruising or bleeding and/or sign/symptoms of infection to the health 
care team. 
15.297 
Electrolyte abnormalities have been seen with agent. Monitor closely.  
15.298 
Hypertension should be medically managed with antihypertensive 
medicinal products as well as adjustment of the niraparib dose, if 
necessary. Niraparib should be discontinued in case of hypertensive 
crisis or if medically significant hypertension cannot be adequately 
controlled with antihypertensive therapy. 
15.299 
Posterior revsersible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) is a rare 
neurologic disorder that can present with the following signs and 
symptoms including seizures, headache, altered mental status, visual 
disturbance, or cortical blindness, with or without associated 
hypertension. In patients developing PRES, treatment of specific 
symptoms including control of hypertension is recommended, along 
with discontinuation of niraparib. 
16.0 
Statistical Considerations and Methodology  
16.1 
Primary Endpoint and Analysis:  
This is a single arm Phase II study designed to determine as primary endpoint the disease 
control rate at 12 weeks (DCR12), using the standard iRECIST criteria of patients 
receiving the combination of niraparib and TSR-042. Because the study features a 
heterogeneous population featuring 3 different genetic/somatic mutations, there will be 
no interim analysis. The study will stay remain open, unless a higher than expected 
toxicity issue is identified.  
DCR12 definition and determination: 
For this protocol, the patients must undergo response scanning according to the iRECIST 
criteria. The DCR12 is defined as the percentage of patients who have either iCR, iPR or 
iSD at 12 weeks. Patients who have developed a iUPD at 6 weeks will only be considered 
to have achieved disease control at 12 weeks, if at 12 weeks there is no confirmation of 
disease progression (iCPD) and the patient regresses to either iCR, iPR or iSD. DCR will 
be analyzed descriptively as a point estimate with a 95% confidence interval. 
The primary endpoint will assess the disease control rate at 12 weeks (DCR12), using the 
standard iRECIST criteria (see Section 11.0, where 11.5 specifically discusses iRECIST). 
All eligible patients who are registered and start treatment will be evaluable for the 
DCR12. A 1-stage design will be utilized (see below). This design has 80% power to 
detect an improvement in DCR12 from 25% to 50%, with a significance level of 0.10. 
See 1-stage design details below: 
Final analysis: We will enroll 19 eligible patients total. As various different types of 
mutations are to be included, various response patterns are possible; therefore the result 


MC1841 
60 
Amendment 2 
Protocol Version Date: 18May2021 
(expressed as the DCR12) might indicate but will not definitively be able to conclude that 
the treatment is worthwhile. If at least 8 patients are a success for DCR12 in the first 19 
eligible patients (41%), the treatment will be considered worthy of further investigation. 
Otherwise, depending upon per mutations results, the study might continue or the 
treatment is considered unworthwhile and can be permanently closed due to lack of 
efficacy.  
16.2 
Secondary Endpoints and Analysis:  
The following endpoints will be assessed as well: objective response rate (ORR), 
duration of confirmed stable disease according to iRECIST, time to next treatment 
(TTNT), overall survival , time to and duration of confirmed response, progression-free 
survival, and adverse events.  
Response rate: The confirmed response rate (by iRECIST ) will be assessed. Any 
confirmed response that occurs during the first 8 cycles of treatment will count as a 
success (24 weeks). Per iRECIST, responses need to be confirmed (2 consecutive 
responses at least 4 weeks apart) to count as a response. We will also assess the duration 
of confirmed stable disease according to iRECIST. All eligible patients who are 
registered and start treatment will be evaluable for response.  
Time to next treatment (TTNT): The TTNT is defined as the time from the end of study 
treatment to receiving the next treatment. TTNT will be estimated using the Kaplan-
Meier method.  
Overall Survival: Overall Survival (OS) is defined as the time from study entry to death 
from any cause. OS will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.  
Time to and Duration of Confirmed Response: The time to response and duration of 
confirmed responses will be assessed using the Kaplan-Meier method, where the time to 
response will be the time from registration to confirmed response and the duration of 
confirmed response will be defined as the time from the first documented date of 
confirmed response (CR or PR) to the date at which progression is first documented.  
Progression-Free Survival: Progression-free survival (PFS) is defined as the time from 
study entry to the first of either disease progression or death from any cause, where 
disease progression will be determined based on iRECIST criteria. PFS will be estimated 
using the Kaplan-Meier method.  
Adverse events: The maximum grade for each type of adverse event will be summarized 
using CTCAE version 5.0. The frequency and percentage of grade 3+ adverse events will 
be estimated. We’ll also assess AEs at least possibly related to treatment as well.  
16.3 
Translational endpoints 
The goals of the translational studies are to assess germline DNA and serum markers of 
immune response, to determine changes in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) profile after 
therapy with a PARPi and a PD-1 inhibitor, to study mechanisms of resistance in ctDNA 
profile after therapy with a PARPi and a PD-1 inhibitor, to assess the tumor 
microenvironment for immune related changes (immune infiltration, PD-L1 and PD-1 
expression, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes [TIL]), to assess genetic profile of the tumor 
pre- and post-treatment, and to determine changes in the cytokine profile pre- and post-
treatment. 
Due to the limited sample size, these analyses will be hypothesis generating and 
descriptive in nature. Descriptive statistics will be summarized and the blood and tissue 
marker data will be correlated with clinical endpoints (response, DCR12, duration of 


MC1841 
61 
Amendment 2 
Protocol Version Date: 18May2021 
response, OS, PFS, advere events, etc.). For time-to-event data, the Kaplan-Meier method 
will be used. For categorical data, we’ll use the Fisher’s exact test. For marker data used 
to predict binary outcomes (i.e. response vs. no response), we’ll use Logistic regression 
models.  
16.4 
Total sample size and study duration 
To account for possible drop-outs, cancellations, etc. we plan to accrue 20 total patients. 
We plan to accrue around 2 patients per month, so the study accrual phase should be 
around 10 months total. The final analysis can be done around 24 months after the study 
begins, which includes time for data entry, clean-up, and analysis.  
16.5 
Data & Safety Review 
16.51 Reviews 
The principal investigator(s) and the study statistician will review the study at 
least twice a year to identify accrual, adverse event, and any endpoint problems 
that might be developing. The Mayo Clinic Cancer Center (MCCC) Data Safety 
Monitoring Board (DSMB) is responsible for reviewing accrual and safety data 
for this trial at least twice a year, based on reports provided by the MCCC 
Statistical Office. 
16.52 Adverse Event Stopping Rule: The stopping rule specified below is based on the 
knowledge available at study development. We note that the Adverse Event 
Stopping Rule may be adjusted in the event of either (1) the study re-opening to 
accrual or (2) at any time during the conduct of the trial and in consideration of 
newly acquired information regarding the adverse event profile of the 
treatment(s) under investigation. The study team may choose to suspend accrual 
because of unexpected adverse event profiles that have not crossed the specified 
rule below. Accrual may be temporarily suspended to this study if at any time we 
observe events considered at least possibly related to study treatment (ie, an 
adverse event with attribute specified as “possible”, “probable”, or “definite”) 
that satisfy the following: 
• 
If 3 or more of the first 10 patients (or 30% or more of all patients after 
10 are accrued) experience a Grade 4 AE. With exceptions: cytopenia, 
fatigue,  
• 
If 2 or more experience a Grade 5 AE at any time. 
After consideration by the study team (study chair, statistician, etc.), a decision 
will be made as to whether accrual can be resumed. 
16.6 
Inclusion of Women and Minorities 
This study will be available to all eligible patients regardless of race, gender, or ethnic 
group.  
16.61 Statistical analysis by subset 
There is no information currently available regarding differential effects of this 
regimen in subsets defined by race, gender, or ethnicity, and there is no reason to 
expect such differences to exist. Therefore, although the planned analyses will 
look for differences in treatment effect based on racial groupings, the sample size 
is not increased in order to provide additional power for subset analyses.

Background and Methodology 
17.41 For tissue biopsies before, during and post treatment, goal is to study changes in 
tumor microenvironment and mutational status post-exposure to PARP inhibition 
and immunotherapy. The biopsy samples will be biobanked for these analyses in 
the future. These would include assessment of PD-L1 expression and assessment 
of mutational status pre- and post-exposure to immunotherapy. PD-L1 expression 
and changes in microenvironment would be assessed by immunohistochemistry 
using standard approved antibodies. 
17.42 For assessment of mutational status, comprehensive tumor based genetic testing 
will be performed to study changes in mutational load to exposure of PARP 
inhibition and immunotherapy over time. 
17.43 If feasible, samples would also be collected for xenograft development for 
potential future studies looking into drug based studies and to study uptake of 
grafts from these patients.

Appendix III Examples of confirmed progression  
The following examples show how a patient that is currently an iUPD can become an iCPD (confirmed 
progression). These examples all use target lesion growth as the source of the first progression (iUPD) 
and show how additional information in future assessments can lead to iCPD. The examples are not 
exhaustive, but are meant to be illustrative of how iCPD can occur. Similar examples can be created 
where non-target lesions and/or new lesions led to the initial iUPD. 
1) iUPD due to target lesion growth from baseline followed by iCPD due to continued growth of 
target lesions (by at least 5 mm).
