PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
- I. Determine if mirvetuximab soravtansine as a single agent is likely to induce response
in at least 20% of patients with metastatic folate receptor (FR) alpha+ triple negative
breast cancer (TNBC).
- II. Determine if mirvetuximab soravtansine as a single agent in the neoadjuvant setting
will improve rates of excellent pathologic response (pathologic complete response
[pCR]/residual cancer burden [RCB]-0 or RCB-I) from 5% to 20% in patients with high
risk, chemotherapy insensitive, FRalpha+ TNBC.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
- I. Determine the radiographic response rate as measured by ultrasound and/ or magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) (partial response + complete clinical response) for mirvetuximab
soravtansine in chemotherapy insensitive, FRalpha
+ localized TNBC or using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria
in patients with FRalpha+ advanced TNBC.
- II. Determine toxicity of 4 cycles of mirvetuximab soravtansine given in the neoadjuvant
setting following anthracycline based therapy (Cohort B) and unrestricted cycles in
patients receiving therapy in the advanced/metastatic setting (Cohort A).
- III. Determine disease free survival (DFS) at 3 years for patients treated with
mirvetuximab soravtansine given in the neoadjuvant setting; progression free survival
(PFS), duration of response (DOR) and overall survival at 3 years (overall survival [OS]
at 3 years) in patients receiving therapy for advanced/ metastatic TNBC.
- IV. Compare disease response (as measured by pCR/RCB-I) in patients with FRalpha+
chemotherapy resistant disease treated on clinical trial with mirvetuximab soravtansine
in the neoadjuvant setting to those with similar molecular features who receive standard
taxane-based chemotherapy as the second phase of their NACT.

disease progression or therapy intolerance. Patients with disease progression on
anthracycline-based therapy should be evaluated by the surgical team. If the patient
is deemed inoperable at the time of evaluation, the patient may continue to undergo
protocol therapy with a goal of reduction in tumor size to become operable. If the
patient is deemed at high risk of becoming inoperable by the surgical team based upon
tumor size or location, the patient will be considered ineligible for study and will
be recommended to go to surgery
