A Phase 2, Randomized, Open-Label, 3-arm Study of Relacorilant in Combination With Nab-Paclitaxel for Patients With Recurrent Platinum-Resistant Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, or Primary Peritoneal Cancer

This is a Phase 2, open-label, randomized, 3-arm study to evaluate progression-free survival
(PFS) in patients with recurrent platinum-resistant ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary
peritoneal cancer treated with intermittent or continuous regimens of relacorilant in
combination with nab-paclitaxel compared with patients treated with nab-paclitaxel alone.

Relacorilant is a small molecule antagonist of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). The goals of
this study are to evaluate the efficacy of relacorilant either administered daily
(continuous) or on the day prior, the day of, and the day after chemotherapy (intermittent)
in combination with nab-paclitaxel in the treatment of platinum-resistant ovarian, fallopian
tube, or primary peritoneal cancers compared with nab-paclitaxel alone. The safety,
pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamic profile of relacorilant in combination with
nab-paclitaxel will also be assessed.

Eligible patients will be randomized 1:1:1 to one of the following three treatment arms.
Patient randomization will be stratified by treatment-free interval from most recent taxane
(<6 months vs >/=6 months) and presence of ascites (yes vs no).

- Arm A (Continuous): Relacorilant 100mg, administered orally, once daily every day
starting on Cycle 1, Day -7 in combination with nab-paclitaxel on Days 1, 8, and 15 of
each 28-day cycle.

- Arm B (Intermittent): Relacorilant 150mg, administered orally, on the day before, the
day of, and the day after nab-paclitaxel, starting on Cycle 1, Day -1, in combination
with nab-paclitaxel on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each 28-day cycle.

- Arm C (Comparator): Nab-paclitaxel on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each 28-day cycle.

Patients will remain on treatment until reaching a protocol-defined event of disease
progression (PD), experiencing unmanageable toxicity, or until other treatment
discontinuation criteria are met. All patients will be followed for progression, subsequent
therapies and survival. Patients in Arm C (Comparator) who experience unequivocal PD per
RECIST v1.1 will be given the opportunity to receive relacorilant in combination with
nab-paclitaxel after discussion with the Medical Monitor.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Signed and dated IRB/IEC-approved informed consent form (ICF) prior to study-specific
screening procedures.

- Female patients aged ≥ 18 years old at time of consent.

- Histologic diagnosis of high grade serous or endometrioid epithelial ovarian, primary

platinum-based therapy of less than 6 months, persistent disease at the completion of
primary platinum-therapy, or PD during platinum-based therapy.

- Measurable or non-measurable disease by RECIST v1.1:

- Previously irradiated lesions are not allowed as measurable disease, unless there is
documented evidence of progression in the lesions.

- To be eligible with non-measurable disease, patients must have evaluable disease with
CA 125 of ≥ 100 U/mL along with radiographically evaluable disease by CT/MRI.

- Availability and consent to provide tumor tissue for GR immunohistochemistry (archival
or recent biopsy).

including maintenance therapy such as single-agent bevacizumab).

Screening Visit:

- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1,500 cells/mm3.

- Platelet count ≥ 100,000/mm3.

- Hemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL.

- AST or ALT ≤ 2.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN) (or ≤ 5 × ULN in the context of
liver metastasis).

- Total bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN.

- Serum creatinine ≤ 1 × ULN; creatinine clearance ≥ 50 mL/min/1.73 m2 for patients
with creatinine levels above institutional normal.

- Albumin ≥ 3 g/dL (≥ 30 g/L) .

- If patient has undergone surgery of the gastrointestinal or hepatobiliary tract,
adequate absorption as evidenced by: albumin ≥ 3.0 g/dL, controlled pancreatic
insufficiency (if present), and lack of malabsorption.

- Able to swallow and retain oral medication and does not have uncontrolled emesis.

- Able to comply with protocol requirements.

- Negative pregnancy test for patients of childbearing potential. Patients of
childbearing potential must use appropriate precautions to avoid pregnancy, defined as
of non-childbearing potential (ie, postmenopausal or permanently sterilised) or using
highly effective contraception with low user-dependency, for at least 3 months after
the last dose of study drug. A woman is postmenopausal if it is more than 12 months
since her last menstruation, without an alternative medical cause. Accepted methods of
permanent sterilization methods are hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy and/or
bilateral oophorectomy. Accepted methods of highly effective contraception with low
user-dependency are:

- An IUD, provided that the subject has tolerated its use for at least 3 months
before the first dose of study medication and undertakes not to have it removed
for 1 month after the last dose.

- Abstinence from heterosexual intercourse, when it is in line with the subject's
preferred and usual lifestyle. Periodic abstinence and withdrawal is NOT
acceptable.

- Vasectomised partner provided that the partner is the sole sexual partner of the
trial participant and that the vasectomised partner has received medical
assessment of the surgical success.

- Oral hormonal contraceptives are NOT permitted.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Clinically relevant toxicity from prior systemic cytotoxic therapies or radiotherapy
that in the opinion of the Investigator has not resolved to Grade 1 or less prior to
randomization.

surgery including (curative or palliative surgery), they must have recovered
adequately from the toxicity and/or complications from the intervention prior to
starting therapy.

- Treatment with the following prior to randomization:
