E.1.3 | Condition being studied is a rare disease | No |
E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
Demonstrate the value of a ctDNA-based assay for homologous recombination deficiency to predict response to olaparib monotherapy. This analysis will also be performed according to platinum-sensitivity (platinum-sensitive versus platinum-resistant). |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
-Demonstrate the value of a ctDNA-based assay for homologous recombination deficiency to predict duration of response, disease control rate, progression-free survival and overall survival to olaparib monotherapy. These analyses will also be performed according to platinum-sensitivity (platinum-sensitive versus platinum-resistant).
-Demonstrate the value of a tissue DNA-based assay (fresh frozen/FFPE) for homologous recombination deficiency to predict response, progression-free survival, duration of response and overall survival to olaparib monotherapy.
-Assess the efficacy of olaparib monotherapy versus phycician’s choice chemotherapy after randomization in the study with regards to response, duration of response, progression-free survival and overall survival in patients with both a platinum-sensitive and a platinum-resistant relapse. The study is powered for subgroup analyses on these 2 cohorts.
-Assessment of Quality of Life for all enrolled subjects

6.Resting ECG with QTc > 470 msec on 2 or more time points within a 24 hour period or family history of long QT syndrome

9.Patients with myelodysplastic syndrome/acute myeloid leukaemia
10.Immunocompromised patients (e.g. HIV) requiring treatment or active Hepatitis B or C
11.Patients with symptomatic uncontrolled brain metastases. A scan to confirm the absence of brain metastases is not required. The patient can receive a stable dose of corticosteroids before and during the study as long as these were started at least 4 weeks prior to treatment. Patients with spinal cord compression unless considered to have received definitive treatment for this and evidence of clinically stable disease for 28 days
12.Major surgery within 2 weeks of starting study treatment. Furthermore, patients must have recovered from any effects of any major surgery.
13.Patients considered a poor medical risk due to a serious, uncontrolled medical disorder, non-malignant systemic disease or active, uncontrolled infection. Examples include, but are not limited to, uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmia, recent (within 3 months) myocardial infarction, uncontrolled major seizure disorder, superior vena cava syndrome, extensive interstitial bilateral lung disease on high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) scan or any psychiatric disorder that prohibits obtaining informed consent
14.Patients with uncontrolled seizures.
