Survival data from a clinical trial signaled that PARP inhibitors may not work as well as chemotherapy for patients with recurrent ovarian cancer who have received three or more lines of treatment. As a result, FDA approvals have been withdrawn for PARP inhibitors in this setting. This does not affect PARP inhibitor approvals for use as maintenance therapy for ovarian cancer. (Posted 10/4/22)

Questions To Ask Your Health Care Provider

Open Clinical Trials
The following studies look at treatment for people with advanced solid tumors.
- NCT02264678: Ascending Doses of Ceralasertib in Combination With Chemotherapy and/or Novel Anti Cancer Agents. This is a study of orally administered ceralasertib combined with chemotherapy regimens and/or novel anticancer agents for patients with advanced cancer. The study enrolls people with tumors that are HRD-positive or who have inherited mutations in BRCA1, BRCA2, ATM, RAD51C or RAD51D.
- NCT04644068: Study of AZD5305 as Monotherapy and in Combination With Anti-cancer Agents in Patients With Advanced Solid Malignancies (PETRA). This research is designed to learn whether treatment with a new PARP inhibitor, AZD5305, used alone or in combination with anti-cancer agents is safe, tolerable and has anti-cancer activity in patients with advanced solid tumors. The study is open to people who have previously been treated with PARP inhibitors.
- NCT04267939: ATR Inhibitor Plus Niraparib Study in Advanced Solid Tumors and Ovarian Cancer. This study looks at how well people with advanced solid tumors respond to treatment with the targeted therapy BAY1895344 in combination with the PARP inhibitor niraparib. This study is open to people with inherited mutations in ATM, BRCA1, BRCA2 and other genes. Contact the study coordinator for information about eligibility for people with mutations in other genes.
- NCT04657068: Treatment with ATR Inhibitor for Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors. This study looks at how well a new oral targeted therapy known as an ATR inhibitor works on advanced or metastatic solid tumors with mutations in genes that are linked to DNA damage repair. This study is open to people who have an inherited or acquired BRCA or ATM mutation or whose tumors are HRD-positive. This study is open to people whose cancer stopped responding or progressed on PARP inhibitors.
