14. Patient with social insurance coverage. |
|
E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1. BRCA1 or 2 germline known mutation.
2. Life expectancy < 3 months.
3. Less than 14 days from radiotherapy (whatever the indication). Fields should not have involved all target lesions.
4. Patients previously treated with a PARP inhibitor.
5. Spinal cord compression and/or symptomatic or progressive brain metastases (unless asymptomatic or treated and stable off steroids for at least 30 days prior to start of study drug).
6. Patients with all target lesions in a previously irradiated region, except if clear progression has been observed prior to study in at least one of them
7. Inability to swallow
8. Major problem with intestinal absorption
9. Previous or current malignancies of other histologies within the last 5 years, with the exception of in situ carcinoma of the cervix, and adequately treated basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin.
10. Evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic disease (active bleeding diatheses, or active Hepatitis B, C and HIV)
11. Previous history of myelodysplastic syndrome
12. History of hypersensitivity to active or inactive excipients of the rucaparib.
13. Toxicities of grade ≥2 from any previous anti-cancer therapy, with the exception of alopecia.
14. Altered haematopoietic or organ function, as indicated by the following criteria:
• Polynuclear neutrophils < 1.5 x 10^9/L
• Platelets < 100 x 10^9/L
• Haemoglobin < 90 g/L
• ALAT/ASAT > 2.5x ULN in the absence of or > 5x ULN in the presence of liver metastases
• Bilirubin > 1.5xULN
• Creatinine clearance ≤30 mL/min (measured or calculated by Cockroft and Gault formula
15. Women who are pregnant.
16. Patients using drugs that are known potent inhibitors or potent inducers of CYP1A2 or CYP3A4 are not eligible if those treatments cannot be substituted before inclusion
17. Any condition which in the Investigator’s opinion makes it undesirable for the subject to participate in the trial or which would jeopardize compliance with the protocol.
18. Individuals deprived of liberty or placed under the authority of a tutor. |
