About this study

At present targeted therapy with the PARP inhibitor olaparib has become standard of care in advanced platinum sensitive BRCA1/2 mutant ovarian cancer. The key in this sensitivity is the loss of homologous recombination (HR) function. The current project aims to treat patients with any type of cancer carrying in their germline a mutation in genes that generate such an homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) or have an acquired somatic mutation in their tumor with the targeted PARP inhibitor olaparib. The project would thus bring access to a targeted drug matched to the genomic profile of the tumor of these patients and provide oncologists with information regarding efficacy and safety of olaparib in these patients. This evidence could then later lead to a more routine regulatory access.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Response rate according to RECIST 1.1

    The primary analysis will estimate the proportion of patients who achieve confirmed objective response according to the RECIST criteria. Objective response is defined as confirmed CR or PR.

    Measured: every 2 months from date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 months

  2. Response duration according to RECIST 1.1

    Patients whose best RECIST assessment is stable disease, partial, or complete response will be considered to have achieved disease control. Descriptive statistics will be produced for the duration of confirmed objective response and disease control.

    Measured: from date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. locus-specific LOH

    Correlate efficacy with locus-specific LOH in the tumors in case of cancers atypical for the germline mutations

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  2. PFS

    PFS is the time from start of treatment until the occurrence of disease progression or death, whichever comes first. Date of progression is the earliest of (1) date of imaging showing disease progression, or (2) date of investigator assessment of clinical progression, or (3) date recorded from post study follow-up for disease progression, or (4) start of new anti-cancer treatment (i.e., either the secondary treatment regimen or other anti-cancer treatment).

    Measured: every 2 months from date of randomization until teh date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 months.

  3. OS

    OS is the time from start of treatment until death, for whatever reason.

    Measured: every 2 months from date of randomization until teh date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Olaparib Oral Capsule in people with Advanced Cancers Harbouring Mutations in HRG, run by Universitair Ziekenhuis Brussel at 1 site in Belgium.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 13 inclusion and 23 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Belgium. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Response rate according to RECIST 1.1 (time frame: every 2 months from date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 100 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 19 Aug 2024.
