Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Ovarian Cancer

Registration Number
NCT04417192
Lead Sponsor
National Cancer Center Hospital East
Brief Summary

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of preoperative olaparib monotherapy and preoperative olaparib plus pembrolizumab combination therapy in patients with untreated stage III, IV high-grade serous or Grade 3 endometrioid ovarian cancer with Homologous Recombination Deficiency (HRD) positivity.

Detailed Description

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of preoperative olaparib monotherapy and preoperative olaparib plus pembrolizumab combination therapy in patients with untreated stage III, IV high-grade serous or Grade 3 endometrioid ovarian cancer with HRD positivity. The first cohort (Olaparib monotherapy : 10 cases) will be evaluated for the presence or absence of immune cell activation, and the tumor reduction effect will be evaluated in the second cohort (Olaparib plus pembrolizumab combination therapy : 20 cases).

  13. Has a symptomatic infection within 14 days prior to enrollment.

  14. Has received a live vaccine within 28 days prior to enrollment.

  15. Has clinically critical cardiac disease (has a history of myocardial infarction or angina pectoris within 180 days prior to enrollment or has New York Heart Association [NYHA] class II or higher cardiac failure, uncontrolled arrhythmia, or QTc prolongation defined as QTc > 470 msec).
