- Has a known additional malignancy that is progressing or has required active treatment in the last 5 years. Note: Participants with basal cell carcinoma of the skin, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, ductal carcinoma in situ, or cervical carcinoma in situ that has undergone potentially curative therapy are not excluded.
- Has myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)/acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or with features suggestive of MDS/AML.

- Has received colony-stimulating factors (e.g., granulocyte colony-stimulating factor [G-CSF], granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor [GM-CSF] or recombinant erythropoietin) within 28 days prior to the first dose of study treatment.
- Has a known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection.
- Has known active hepatitis infection (i.e., Hepatitis B or C).
- Is unable to swallow orally administered medication or has a gastrointestinal disorder affecting absorption (e.g., gastrectomy, partial bowel obstruction, malabsorption).
- Has received prior therapy with olaparib or with any other polyadenosine 5' diphosphoribose (poly[ADP ribose]) polymerization (PARP) inhibitor.
- Has a known hypersensitivity to the components or excipients in olaparib.
- Has received previous allogenic bone-marrow transplant or double umbilical cord transplantation (dUCBT).
- Has received a whole blood transfusion in the last 120 days prior to entry to the study. Packed red blood cells and platelet transfusions are acceptable if not performed within 28 days of the first dose of study treatment.
- Has received any anti-neoplastic systemic chemotherapy or biological therapy, targeted therapy, or an anticancer hormonal therapy within 3 weeks prior to the first dose of study intervention.
- Has a primary cancer of unknown origin.
- Has received prior radiotherapy within 2 weeks of start of study intervention. Participants must have recovered from all radiation-related toxicities, not require corticosteroids, and not have had radiation pneumonitis. A 1-week washout is permitted for palliative radiation (≤2 weeks of radiotherapy) to non-CNS disease.

Group Intervention Description Olaparib Olaparib Participants with HRRm or HRD-positive advanced cancer will receive oral olaparib, 300 mg twice daily (BID).
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Objective Response Rate (ORR) Up to 53 months ORR is defined as the percentage of participants who achieve a confirmed complete response (\[CR\]; disappearance of all target lesions) or partial response (\[PR\]: ≥30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions) as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors 1.1, modified to follow a maximum of 10 target lesions in total and a maximum of 5 target lesions per organ (modified RECIST 1.1). For participants with prostate cancer, ORR will be based on Prostate Cancer Working Group (PCWG)-modified RECIST 1.1 as assessed by BICR.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Duration of Response (DOR) Up to 53 months DOR is defined as the time from first documented evidence of CR or PR until the first documented sign of disease progression or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. DOR will be assessed by BICR according to either modified RECIST 1.1 or PCWG-modified RECIST 1.1 for participants with prostate cancer.
Progression Free Survival (PFS) Up to 53 months PFS is defined as the time from the date of the first dose to either: 1) the first documented disease progression as assessed either by BICR according to modified RECIST 1.1 or PCWG-modified RECIST 1.1 for participants with prostate cancer; or 2) death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.
Number of Participants Discontinuing Study Treatment due to an Adverse Event (AE) Up to 52 months The number of participants discontinuing study treatment due to an AE will be assessed.
Overall Survival (OS) Up to 53 months OS is defined as the time from the date of the first dose to the date of death due to any cause.
Time to Earliest Progression by Cancer Antigen-125 (CA-125) Up to 53 months For participants with BRCA1/2 non-mutated ovarian cancer only, the time to earliest progression by CA-125 will be assessed. Progression by CA-125 is defined as an increase in CA-125 level ≥2x upper limit normal (ULN) on 2 occasions, 1 week apart. For participants with elevated CA-125 (≥ULN) at baseline, progression by CA-125 is defined as an increase in CA-125 level ≥2x the nadir value on 2 occasions, 1 week apart.
Number of Participants Experiencing an Adverse Event (AE) Up to 53 months An AE is any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease (new or exacerbated) in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. The number of participants experiencing an AE will be assessed.
Prostate-specific Antigen (PSA) Response Rate in Participants with Prostate Cancer Up to 53 months For participants with prostate cancer, the PSA response rate will be presented. PSA response rate is defined as the percentage of participants in the analysis population with PSA reduction of ≥50% from baseline measured twice at least 3 weeks apart.
Objective Response Rate (ORR) in Participants with HRRm or HRD Positive Cancer Up to 53 months For participants with homologous recombination repair mutation (HRRm) or homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) positive cancer, the ORR will be assessed. ORR is defined as the percentage of participants who achieve a confirmed complete response (\[CR\]; disappearance of all target lesions) or partial response (\[PR\]: ≥30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions) as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors 1.1, modified to follow a maximum of 10 target lesions in total and a maximum of 5 target lesions per organ (modified RECIST 1.1). For participants with prostate cancer, ORR will be based on Prostate Cancer Working Group (PCWG)-modified RECIST 1.1 as assessed by BICR.
Progression-Free Survival After Next-Line Treatment in Participants with sBRCAm Breast Cancer Up to 53 months For participants with somatic BRCA mutated (sBRCAm) breast cancer, the PFS after next-line treatment will be presented. PFS is defined as the time from the date of the first dose to either: 1) the first documented disease progression on the next-line of treatment, as assessed by BICR according to modified RECIST 1.1; or 2) death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.
