About
The purpose of this study is to determine how patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancer will best respond to treatment with rucaparib versus chemotherapy.
Full description
Rucaparib is an orally available, small molecule inhibitor of poly-adenosine diphosphate [ADP] ribose polymerase (PARP) being developed for treatment of ovarian cancer associated with homologous recombination (HR) DNA repair deficiency (HRD). The safety and efficacy of rucaparib has been evaluated in several Phase 1 and Phase 2 studies. An oral formulation is the focus of current development efforts. Rucaparib is currently being investigated as monotherapy in patients with cancer associated with breast cancer susceptibility gene 1 (BRCA1) or BRCA2 mutations.
While PARP inhibitors have demonstrated consistent robust clinical activity in patients with relapsed ovarian cancer associated with HRD, prospective studies evaluating efficacy and safety of PARPi versus standard of care chemotherapy have been limited. The primary purpose of this Phase 3 study is to compare the efficacy and safety of rucaparib versus chemotherapy as treatment for relapsed ovarian cancer in patients with a deleterious BRCA1/2 mutation in their tumor.
