In the phase 2 OVARIO study, median progression-free survival (PFS) has not yet been reached in women with advanced ovarian cancer who are being treated with the combination of niraparib and bevacizumab after response to first-line platinum-based chemotherapy plus bevacizumab. The combination did not appear to cause cumulative toxicities.

Are patient-reported outcomes (PROs) similar in the placebo and the niraparib groups, suggesting that over the course of treatment niraparib does not adversely affect patients’ quality of life? Results of the PRIMA/ENGOT-OV26/GOG-3012 trial begin to elucidate the answer to this question.

Although researchers noted a trend toward increased incidence of secondary hematologic malignancy in patients with newly diagnosed ovarian cancer treated with poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors, the difference was not statistically significant.

Combination treatment is even more effective in women with ovarian cancer with BRCA mutations or homologous recombination deficiency (HRD)-positive tumors.

In patients with newly diagnosed, advanced ovarian cancer and BRCA mutation, olaparib demonstrated a consistently high reduction in the risk for cancer progression and death.

Robotic interval debulking surgery is efficient and safe when treating patients with advanced ovarian cancer who are receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

NOVA clinical trial data outcomes were superior to the real-world outcomes for niraparib, highlighting the critical need for better understanding of variables impacting poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor outcomes in clinical practice.

The RESPONSE study will help characterize patient characteristics and regional specific therapeutic management strategies adopted in 7 countries to better understand poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor use and its impact on outcomes.

Researchers evaluated the connections between safety and efficacy and rucaparib pharmacokinetic exposure in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer.

Treatment with niraparib improves progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with ovarian cancer regardless of their biomarker status.
