Eligibility Criteria

        Inclusion Criteria:

          -  Female participants with recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer who have disease
             progression following maintenance treatment with a PARPi as defined below:

               1. Participant must have histologically diagnosed epithelial ovarian, primary
                  peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer, with nonmucinous histology

               2. Participants must have completed at least 2 previous courses of platinum
                  containing therapy (for example, carboplatin or cisplatin) and had documented
                  response (complete response [CR] or partial response [PR]) to the last
                  platinum-based treatment prior to treatment with a PARPi

               3. Participant has received the last dose of platinum-containing treatment at least
                  6 months prior to study enrollment

               4. Participant has documented disease progression (radiological) after at least 4
                  months of maintenance treatment with PARPi following a response to platinum-based
                  chemotherapy.

          -  Confirmed breast cancer gene (BRCA) 1/2 mutation status or agree to its testing on
             samples collected in the study.

          -  Available formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor biopsies.

          -  Part A: Optional 2 paired on-treatment biopsies on Day 2 of Cycle 1 (first biopsy) and
             Day 2 of Cycle 1 or Cycle 2 (second biopsy) respectively, before and after M6620
             administration, if assessed as feasible at low risk by the interventional radiologist.

          -  Part B: Histological tissue specimen (tissue block or 8 to 10 unstained slides) must

Secondary Outcome Measures

Measure:Part A: Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Treatment-Related TEAEs
Time Frame:Time from first dose of study treatment up to 230 days
Safety Issue:
Description:An adverse event (AE) was defined as any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of study drug, whether or not considered related to the study drug. A serious AE was an AE that resulted in any of the following outcomes: death; life threatening; persistent/significant disability/incapacity; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; congenital anomaly/birth defect or was otherwise considered medically important. TEAEs were defined as events that started or worsened after first dose of study intervention until 30 days after last dose. TEAEs included both serious and non-serious AEs. Treatment-related TEAE: reasonably related to the study intervention. The AE could medically (pharmacologically/clinically) be attributed to the study intervention under study in this clinical study protocol.
Measure:Part A: Number of Participants With Confirmed Best Overall Response (BOR)
Time Frame:Time from first dose of study treatment up to 230 days
Safety Issue:
Description:Confirmed BOR according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) and as assessed by an Investigator was defined as best response of any of the complete response (CR), partial response (PR), stable disease (SD) and progressive disease (PD) recorded from the date of randomization until disease progression/ recurrence (taking the smallest measurement recorded since the start of treatment as reference). CR: Disappearance of all evidence of target and non-target lesions. PR: At least 30% reduction from baseline in the sum of the longest diameter (SLD) of all lesions. SD: Neither sufficient increase to qualify for PD nor sufficient shrinkage to qualify for PR. PD was defined as at least a 20% increase in the SLD, taking as reference the smallest SLD recorded from baseline or the appearance of 1 or more new lesions and unequivocal progression of non-target lesions. Number of participants with BOR in each category (CR, PR, SD, PD) were reported.
Measure:Part A: Progression-Free Survival (PFS)
Time Frame:Time from first dose of study treatment up to 230 days
Safety Issue:
Description:PFS according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) and as assessed by an Investigator was defined as the time from date of randomization until date of the first observation of progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause within 12 weeks of the last tumor assessment in the absence of documented PD, whichever occurs first. PD was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of longest diameter (SLD), taking as reference the smallest SLD recorded from baseline or the appearance of 1 or more new lesions and unequivocal progression of non-target lesions. Participant wise data reported for this outcome measure.
Measure:Part A: Duration of Response (DoR)
Time Frame:Time from first dose of study treatment up to 230 days
Safety Issue:
Description:DoR according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) and as assessed by an Investigator was defined as the time from first documentation of objective response (Complete Response [CR] or Partial Response [PR]) to the date of first documentation of objective progression of disease (PD) or death due to any cause whichever occurs first. CR: Disappearance of all evidence of target and non-target lesions. PR: At least 30% reduction from baseline in the sum of the longest diameter (SLD) of all lesions. PD was defined as at least a 20% increase in the SLD, taking as reference the smallest SLD recorded from baseline or the appearance of 1 or more new lesions and unequivocal progression of non-target lesions. If a participant has not an event (PD or death), DoR was censored at the date of last adequate tumor assessment.
Measure:Part A: Time to Progression (TTP)
Time Frame:Time from first dose of study treatment up to 230 days
Safety Issue:
Description:TTP according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST v1.1) and assessed by an Investigator was defined as the time from first dose of study intervention until progression disease (PD). PD was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of longest diameter (SLD), taking as reference the smallest SLD recorded from baseline or the appearance of 1 or more new lesions and unequivocal progression of non-target lesions. Participant wise data reported for this outcome measure.
Measure:Part A: Time to First Subsequent Therapy (TFST)
Time Frame:From date of randomization to the earliest date of first subsequent therapy or death, assessed up to 230 days
Safety Issue:
Description:The TFST was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the start date of the first subsequent anti-cancer therapy or death.
