5545 Background: In the Phase II Study 19 trial (NCT00753545; Ledermann et al Lancet Oncol 2014), maintenance olaparib improved progression-free survival (PFS) vs placebo in PSR OC pts, including non-BRCAm pts. A significant PFS benefit was also seen with maintenance olaparib vs placebo in gBRCAm PSR OC pts in the Phase III SOLO2 trial (NCT01874353; Pujade-Lauraine et al Lancet Oncol 2017). To investigate olaparib maintenance monotherapy in non-gBRCAm PSR OC pts who had received ≥2 prior lines of platinum-based chemotherapy (PBC), we performed the Phase IIIb, single-arm, OPINION study (NCT03402841). Methods: Pts had high-grade serous or endometrioid OC and were in complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) to PBC. Pts received maintenance olaparib (tablets; 300 mg bid) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was investigator-assessed PFS (modified RECIST v1.1). Secondary endpoints included PFS by homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) and somatic BRCA mutation (sBRCAm) status determined by central Myriad tumor and germline testing; and time to first subsequent treatment (TFST). The primary analysis was planned for 18 months (mo) after the last patient was enrolled. Results: 279 pts were enrolled from 17 countries (mean age: 64 years); 253 pts (90.7%) were confirmed non-gBRCAm. At data cut-off (Oct 2, 2020), median PFS was 9.2 mo (95% CI 7.6–10.9), with 210 PFS events (75.3% maturity). 65.3%, 38.5% and 24.3% of pts were progression-free (PF) at 6, 12 and 18 mo, respectively. The Table shows PFS in key subgroups. Median TFST was 13.9 mo (95% CI 11.5–16.4). Median exposure to olaparib was 9.4 mo (range 0.0–31.9). Grade ≥3 treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) occurred in 29.0% of pts and serious TEAEs in 19.7% of pts. TEAEs led to dose interruption, dose reduction and treatment discontinuation in 47.0%, 22.6% and 7.5% of pts, respectively. Conclusions: Our findings support the use of olaparib maintenance therapy in non-gBRCAm PSR OC pts, consistent with our interim analysis and previous trials in this setting. Clinical trial information: NCT03402841. [Table: see text]

Pancreatic cancer has a poor prognosis. Focused efforts in the development of novel treatments of this disease have led to the approval of new combinations. Improvements in knowledge of the biology of these tumors have been made, and it is now widely accepted that a proportion of patients have potentially targetable altered genes. One such gene is BRCA, which confers sensibility to PARP inhibitors. Olaparib, an oral PARP inhibitor, initially demonstrated activity in Phase II clinical trials including germline BRCA-mutated patients. This was confirmed in a Phase III clinical trial in pancreatic cancer patients with a germline BRCA mutation. After the results of this study, new scenarios have been evoked. We review the development of olaparib in pancreatic cancer.

5505 Background: Previously, we reported that maintenance treatment with the oral PARP inhibitor olaparib (400 mg bid) led to a significant PFS improvement vs placebo in patients (pts) with platinum-sensitive relapsed SOC (Ledermann et al NEJM2012). A preplanned subgroup analysis from this randomized, double-blind Phase II trial (NCT00753545) suggested that olaparib may lead to a greater PFS, and an OS, benefit in pts with a known germline BRCAm (gBRCAm). Since gBRCA wild-type (gBRCAwt) pts may develop somatic tumor (t)BRCAm, efficacy analyses were performed for all pts with BRCAm. Methods: gBRCAm status was determined retrospectively for all consenting pts (n = 166) using blood samples taken before randomization. tBRCAm status was determined from archival tumor samples of 196 pts. We analyzed PFS/OS by gBRCAm and total BRCAm status. Preliminary data are reported. Results: gBRCA status was known for 218/265 pts (gBRCAm, 96; gBRCAwt, 122). Including tBRCAm, 136 pts had a BRCAm (BRCAwt, 116). gBRCAm pts had the greatest PFS benefit with olaparib maintenance vs placebo (median: 11.2 vs 4.1 months [m]; HR, 0.17; 95% CI 0.09-0.32; P<0.001) and a significant QoL improvement, as measured with Trial Outcome Index (OR, 4.08; 95% CI 1.11-19.85; p = 0.03). The PFS benefit was consistent when tBRCAm pts were included (median: 11.2 vs 4.3 m; HR, 0.19; 95% CI 0.11-0.32; p <0.0001). In an interim analysis of OS (58% maturity), a comparison of olaparib vs placebo in the overall population led to a HR of 0.88 (95% CI 0.64-1.21) with medians of 29.8 vs 27.8 m, respectively. Although HRs from the gBRCAm and gBRCAwt subgroups were similar (0.85 and 0.84, respectively), 13/37 gBRCAm placebo pts received a subsequent PARP inhibitor, confounding the OS data in this subgroup. The analysis of all BRCAm pts was less confounded and resulted in an OS HR of 0.74 (95% CI 0.46-1.19; median: 34.9 vs 31.9 m). 19 pts have received olaparib for >3 years. Olaparib tolerability was similar in BRCAm pts and the overall population. Conclusions: Olaparib maintenance treatment led to the greatest clinical benefit in pts with a BRCAm. These compelling data warrant confirmation in phase III trials. Clinical trial information: NCT00753545.

TPS5615 Background: BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes are critical in homologous recombination DNA repair and have been implicated in familial breast and ovarian cancer tumorigenesis. Tumor cells with these mutations demonstrate increased sensitivity to cisplatin and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors. 6MP was identified in a screen for novel drugs and found to selectively kill BRCA-defective cells in a xenograft model as effectively as the PARP inhibitor, AGO14699, even after these cells had acquired resistance to a PARP inhibitor or cisplatin (Issaeva 2010). Exploiting the genetic basis of these tumours enables us to develop a more tailored approach to therapy for patients with BRCA mutated cancers. This multi-center phase II single arm trial was set up to investigate the activity and safety of 6MP with methotrexate in patients with breast or ovarian cancer who are known to have a BRCA mutation. Methods: Two-stage Simon compromise design (Jung 2001, Jung 2004) with α=0.20, power=90% to detect an increase in activity from 10 to 20%. 1st stage: if ≤ 3/30 evaluable patients respond at 8 weeks the trial will be stopped for futility; 2nd stage: if ≥9/65 evaluable patients respond at 8 weeks the treatment will be regarded as potentially effective and a phase III trial will be considered if the treatment appears safe and well-tolerated. 65 patients with BRCA defective cancer progressing after at least one prior chemotherapy or relapsed platinum resistant ovarian cancer, ECOG performance status 0-2 will be recruited and treated with daily 6MP (75mg/m2 ) and weekly methotrexate (20mg/m2) until progression. The starting dose was later reduced by 25% due to excess of expected toxicity. Patients with low TPMT activity or a low/low genotype are excluded due to the risk of increased toxicity. Prior treatment with a PARP inhibitor is permissible. Primary outcome: objective response at 8 weeks: complete, partial response or stable disease defined by RECIST 1.1. Secondary outcomes include safety, PFS, OS and quality of life. Of the 46 patients screened for TMPT activity between 15 Jun2009 and 05Dec 2012 from 12 UK sites, 31 patients were recruited. The pre-specified activity goal for the 1st stage was met and accrual into the 2nd stage continues. Clinical trial information: 2009-016846-16.

LBA4 Background: Olaparib is an oral PARP inhibitor with anti-tumor activity in HER2-negative mBC with a g BRCAm (NCT00494234). OlympiAD (NCT02000622) was a randomized, open-label, phase III study that assessed efficacy and safety of olaparib vs standard single agent chemotherapy treatment of physician’s choice (TPC) in pts with HER2-negative mBC and a g BRCAm. Methods: Pts aged ≥18 y with HER2-negative mBC (hormone receptor positive or triple negative [TN]) and a g BRCAm, who had received ≤2 chemotherapy lines for mBC, were randomized (2:1) to olaparib tablets (300 mg po bid) or TPC (21-day cycles of either capecitabine [2500 mg/m2 po days 1–14], vinorelbine [30 mg/m2 IV days 1 and 8] or eribulin [1.4 mg/m2IV days 1 and 8]). Treatment was continued until objective disease progression (RECIST v1.1) or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR). Results: 302 pts were randomized (median age 44 y; 50% TN; 71% prior chemotherapy for mBC; 28% prior platinum) of whom 205 received olaparib and 91 received TPC (6 TPC pts were not treated). At 77% data maturity, PFS by BICR was significantly longer in pts treated with olaparib vs TPC (HR 0.58; 95% CI 0.43, 0.80; P=0.0009; 7.0 vs 4.2 months, respectively). Time to second progression (investigator-assessed) was also longer in the olaparib arm (HR 0.57; 95% CI 0.40, 0.83). Objective response rate was 59.9 and 28.8% in olaparib and TPC arms, respectively. Grade ≥3 adverse events (AE) occurred in 36.6 and 50.5% of olaparib and TPC pts, with AEs leading to discontinuation in 4.9 and 7.7% of pts, respectively. Mean change from baseline in global health-related quality of life (HRQoL, EORTC-QLQ-C30) across all timepoints favored olaparib (difference vs TPC 7.5; 95% CI 2.48, 12.44; P=0.0035). Conclusions: Olaparib tablet monotherapy provided a statistically significant and clinically meaningful PFS benefit to HER2-negative mBC pts with a g BRCAm, compared to standard TPC. The safety profile of olaparib was consistent with prior studies. The efficacy benefit was seen beyond the first progression and HRQoL also improved. Clinical trial information: NCT02000622.

TPS5598 Background: Ovarian cancer (OC) is the leading cause of death from gynecologic cancers in US women. Despite high response rates to first-line treatment, ~70% of patients (pts) relapse within 3 years and then remain largely incurable. First-line treatment needs to be improved to achieve long-term remission in pts and improve the cure rate. The Phase III SOLO1 trial showed a meaningful clinical benefit for olap maintenance therapy in newly diagnosed OC pts with a BRCA mutation (Moore et al N Engl J Med 2018). Preliminary data suggest that combining a PD-L1 inhibitor, anti-angiogenic and PARP inhibitor (triplet therapy) may achieve a synergistic antitumor effect. The DUO-O study (NCT03737643) evaluates the efficacy and safety of treatment combinations involving standard-of-care platinum-based chemotherapy (chemo), VEGF inhibitor bev, anti-PD-L1 antibody durva and PARP inhibitor olap, in women with newly diagnosed advanced OC. Methods: Eligible pts for this double-blind, randomized, Phase III study must have newly diagnosed, advanced, high-grade epithelial OC and either have completed primary surgery or plan to have interval debulking surgery. Depending on their tumor BRCA mutation (tBRCAm) status (determined by central test), pts will join one of two independent cohorts. Pts in the non-tBRCAm cohort (n~906) will be randomized (1:1:1) before cycle 2 to: a) chemo + bev + placebo (for 6 cycles) followed by bev (15 mg/kg [total 15 months]) + placebo maintenance treatment (IV and tablets); b) chemo + bev + durva (6 cycles) followed by bev + durva (1120 mg q3w [total 15 months]) + placebo (tablets) maintenance treatment; or c) chemo + bev + durva (6 cycles) followed by bev + durva + olap (300 mg bd tablets [24 months]) maintenance treatment. Pts in the open-label tBRCAm cohort (n~150) will receive 6 cycles of chemo + durva followed by durva + olap maintenance therapy, with optional use of bev. The primary endpoint of progression-free survival will be assessed by modified RECIST 1.1. Key secondary endpoints include overall survival, overall response rate and duration of response. Enrollment began in January 2019. Clinical trial information: NCT03737643.

6039 Background: In PAOLA-1/ENGOT-ov25 (NCT02477644), adding the PARP inhibitor olaparib to maintenance bev after first-line platinum-based chemotherapy plus bev led to a statistically significant progression-free survival (PFS) benefit in pts with advanced HGOC (HR 0.59; 95% CI 0.49–0.72) (Ray-Coquard et al. 2019). Retrospective subgroup analysis in GOG-0218 (Norquist et al. 2018) suggested BRCA mutation (BRCAm) status did not significantly impact the PFS benefit provided by bev. We explored the efficacy of olaparib plus bev by BRCA1 mutation ( BRCA1m) or BRCA2 mutation ( BRCA2m) in PAOLA-1. Methods: PAOLA-1 is a randomized, double-blind, Phase III trial in pts with newly diagnosed, FIGO stage III–IV, high-grade serous or endometrioid OC, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer receiving platinum-based chemotherapy plus bev then maintenance bev. Pts unrestricted by surgical outcome or BRCAm status and in response to first-line therapy were randomized to maintenance olaparib tablets (300 mg bid for up to 24 months) plus bev (15 mg/kg q3w for up to 15 months in total) or placebo plus bev, stratified by first-line treatment outcome and tumor BRCAm status. Investigator-assessed PFS (modified RECIST v1.1) by BRCAm was a predefined analysis. Results: Of 806 randomized pts, 160 (20%) had tumor BRCA1m, 76 (9%) had tumor BRCA2m and 1 (<1%) had both. Median PFS follow-up was 24.1 and 27.4 months in BRCA1m and BRCA2m pts, respectively. At primary data cutoff, PFS was prolonged with olaparib plus bev versus placebo plus bev in BRCA1m pts and BRCA2m pts (Table). The percentage of BRCA1m pts who received olaparib plus bev and were progression-free at 1 and 2 years was 95% and 73% (vs. 70% and 29% for placebo plus bev) and for BRCA2m pts was 89% and 84% (vs. 84% and 53%) (Kaplan-Meier estimates). Conclusions: In PAOLA-1, maintenance olaparib plus bev provided a significant PFS benefit versus placebo plus bev in all pts analysed, regardless of whether they had BRCA1m or BRCA2m. The median PFS in the control arm suggests a role for bev in this subgroup and the hazard ratio versus an active control arm shows the value of adding maintenance olaparib to bev.
