Summary description of the study

This study is a Phase II study. Phase II means that the investigating physicians are exploring a potential new drug in a small group of people. The study investigates an experimental drug called Tuvusertib in combination with one of two other study drugs: • Lartesertib, another experimental drug that may only be used in clinical research studies, or • Niraparib, a drug that physicians may prescribe for certain indications, including ovarian carcinoma. The combinations of Tuvusertib with either Lartesertib or Niraparib are both referred to as “study medication.” All participants in this study have been diagnosed with advanced epithelial ovarian carcinoma, although they have received treatment with PARP inhibitors (poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase). This study is being conducted to determine whether the study medication is safe and effective for patients with epithelial ovarian carcinoma that has progressed after treatment with PARP inhibitors. We want to find out: • whether the study medication is safe and well tolerated • whether either or both of the combination treatments “Tuvusertib + Niraparib” or “Tuvusertib + Lartesertib” are effective, and if so, which works better This is an open-label study. Thus, all participants know which study medication they are receiving. About 60 people from 14 countries will participate in this study.

Intervention under investigation

Participants will be assigned to one of two groups. In both groups, the probability of being assigned to a group is equal.

• Group A receives the combination of Tuvusertib and Niraparib.

• Group B receives the combination of Tuvusertib and Lartesertib.

The study medication is taken orally at intervals of 4 weeks (28 days). The duration of your participation in the study depends on how your cancer responds to the study medication.

Disease under investigation

Ovarian carcinoma

(BASEC)

Criteria for participation in trial
• Minimum age of 18 years • Diagnosis of ovarian carcinoma that has spread or recurred during targeted treatment (has progressed during maintenance therapy with PARP inhibitors) • Tumors with specific DNA alterations, i.e., deleterious mutations in the BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 genes, and/or tumors with positive HRD status (BASEC)

Exclusion criteria
• Platinum-resistant disease • History of an additional malignant disease within 3 years prior to the start of treatment with the study medication • Known brain metastases unless clinically stable (BASEC)

Allocation: Randomized. Intervention model: Parallel Assignment. Primary purpose: Treatment. Masking: None (Open Label). (ICTRP)

Inclusion/Exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

- Histologically or cytologically confirmed high grade serous or high grade
endometrioid ovarian, primary peritoneal, and/or fallopian tube cancer that is
recurrent.

- Participants whose tumor carries germline or somatic deleterious or suspected
deleterious mutations in the genes BRCA1 (Breast Cancer gene 1) and BRCA2 (Breast
Cancer gene 2), and/or tumors with positive HRD status. The presence of any of these
mutations and/or the homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) status will be
determined according to routinely used local standard of care tests. Results must be
available before screening.

- Radiologically confirmed/documented disease progression while on Poly (ADP-ribose)
polymerase (PARP) inhibitors therapy in either first or second-line maintenance
setting (only 1 line of PARPi maintenance is allowed with or without bevacizumab).
Note: Documentation of disease progression must be within 28 days of last PARPi dose
taken. Surgical salvage intervention and/or focal ablative therapies are allowed,
(further disease progression after these interventions must be documented), AND
Clinically benefited from PARPi maintenance prior to documented progression, as
defined by at least 6 months of treatment duration with no progressive disease
observed, AND either, Progression on first-line maintenance PARPi: Participants are
allowed maximum 1 additional line of platinum-based chemotherapy before study entry.
(note: treatment-free interval on platinum rechallenge must be >6 months, with
documented disease progression prior to study entry).

OR Progression on second-line maintenance PARPi: Participants are not allowed any
additional systemic anticancer treatments before study entry (that is PARPi is the last
treatment before study entry)

- Intolerant to standard of care treatment options or refused standard of care
treatment or the participant's treating physician considers that the lack of
standard of care treatment is not detrimental for the participant.

- Measurable disease per RECIST v1.1, as assessed by Investigator.

- Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1 and a life
expectancy of at least 6 months.

- Other Protocol defined inclusion criteria could apply.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Primary platinum-refractory disease defined as disease progression during primary
platinum-based chemotherapy or platinum-resistant disease defined as disease
progression within 6 months of the platinum administration in either the first or
second-line setting.

- History of additional malignancy within 3 years before the date of enrollment.

- Known brain metastases, unless clinically stable, that is without evidence of
progression by imaging for at least 4 weeks prior to the first dose of study
intervention, no evidence of new brain metastases, and on a stable or decreasing
dose of = 10 mg of prednisone (or equivalent) or without corticosteroids for at
least 14 days prior to study intervention administration.

- Active and/or uncontrolled infection.

- History of known hypersensitivity to the active substances or to any excipients
(e.g. polysorbate 80) of the study interventions.

- Organ transplantation, including allogenic stem cell transplant.

- Patients with history of drug-induced severe cutaneous adverse reaction (SCAR
including but not limited to Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis
[SJS/TEN], or drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms [DRESS]), or
