About
The study is observational, not interventional. The study will include patients with advanced ovarian cancer who have been treated in Poland based on a previous early access program, and who are currently being treated under the B.50 drug program, funded by the National Health Fund.
Only patients currently being treated in the B.50 program at 10 selected centers listed on this site may be included in the study.
Of course, any patient in Poland eligible for maintenance treatment with niraparib can receive the drug, regardless of participation in this RWE study.The treatment involves administering niraparib as maintenance therapy for 3 years after the completion of chemotherapy, provided that the patient has responded to systemic treatment (NED, CR, PR).
Full description
Although over the last 2 decades the surgical management of ovarian cancer has improved with more chemotherapy options are available, however 5-year survival rates have remained relatively stable at 25 to 40% (36) The proposed real-life observation study can deliver valuable real-world information about niraparib patient outcomes and safety complementing the results of the PRIMA and PRIME clinical trials. This will also include establishing the importance of KELIM as a predictor of maintenance therapy choices. The multicenter design of the study will allow collection of data from a relatively large and representative group of patients within the Polish Drug program B.50. To this time, no study has been published about niraparib patient outcomes and safety in Poland.
This study will also include evaluation of patient outcomes when initiating therapy up to 4, 8, 12 weeks after completion of platinum based chemotherapy.
The population of patients included in the study will come from two programs: EAP and B.50.
EAP is an early access program sponsored by GSK, which has been operating in Poland since 2021 Jan. The inclusion criteria for EAP contained the same measurable parameters as the B.50 drug program offers.
The B.50 drug program is a ministerial program guaranteeing the Polish patients with advanced ovarian cancer access to approved medicines like maintenance treatment with PARP inhibitors, including niraparib.
The B.50 and EAP inclusion criteria are in accordance with the study protocol.

Secondary Objectives
INVESTIGATIONAL PLAN
Overall Study Design Patients who complete the Chemotherapy Treatment Period without progressive disease (CR, PR, NED) will start Maintenance Treatment with niraparib after Cycle 6 up to 12 weeks after completion of the chemotherapy.
Prior to receiving oral maintenance treatment, patients must have a CBC that demonstrates adequate recovery from hematologic toxicity from chemotherapy:
Number of Patients and Study Design We expect to enroll approximately 300 patients from about 10 sites. Treatment part of study.
Part I- looking retrospectively at the time period JAN 2021-MAR 2023. The retrospective data will include patients who are enrolled in niraparib treatment:
FIGO III PDS to R0 patients are included to this study. Part II- looking prospectively at the time period APR 2023 to DEC 2025. The prospective data will include patients who are enrolled in niraparib treatment under the B.50 drug program.
The prospective multi-center observational study will involve about 150 patients with ovarian cancer (OC) who have been treated in about 10 OC gyn- oncocenters in Poland (OCgoC) (APR 2023- DEC 2025).
Study follow up Part III- survival follow up after treatment part of study (from JAN 2026 - DEC 2026).
Chemotherapy Treatment Period Not covered by the study protocol.
Maintenance Treatment Period All the patients will be given a sequential number by the system. Additionally, each patient from the EAP will have individual number which was given to them. In the CRF there will be additional information that there is a patient in the EAP phase of the study. Patients who have responded to first-line chemotherapy (NED, CR, PR) and with recovery to baseline of any hematologic toxicities will enter the Maintenance Treatment Period. Oral niraparib will be dispensed to patients on Day 1 of every 28-day cycle beginning with Cycle 1 of the Maintenance Treatment Period for up to 3 years in the absence of PD, unacceptable toxicity, or patient withdrawal, or based on Investigator's decision.
The recommended dose is 200 mg per day (2 capsules). Patients with a baseline body weight of ≥77 kg and baseline platelet count of ≥150,000 cells/μL will take 3 capsules of 100 mg strength (300 mg/day) at each dose administration.
Dose modifications will not be based upon changes in the patient's actual body weight during their study participation.
The inclusion criteria, the way of monitoring, both in a prospective and a retrospective cohort, will be followed by the B.50 drug program criteria. For that reason CA125 measurements necessary for KELIM as well as RECIST data are available in both cohorts during the whole period of time.
Duration of Treatment Patients may continue niraparib treatment for up to 3 years according to the B.50 drug program.

Inclusion criteria
Patients must be female, ≥18 years of age, able to understand the study procedures, and agree to participate in the study by providing written informed consent.

All patients with Stage IV disease are eligible. This includes those with inoperable disease, those who undergo PDS (R0 or macroscopic disease), or those for whom NACT is planned.
Patients with Stage III are eligible if they meet the following criteria:
FFPE tumor tissue sample must be available for molecular analysis.
Patients of childbearing potential must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test (beta human chorionic gonadotropin) within 72 hours prior to receiving the first dose of study treatment.
Patients must be postmenopausal, free from menses for >1 year, surgically sterilized, or willing to use highly effective contraception to prevent pregnancy (see 0) or must agree to abstain from activities that could result in pregnancy throughout the study, starting with enrollment through 180 days after the last dose of study treatment.
Patients must have an ECOG score of 0 or 1.
Patients must have normal BP or adequately treated and controlled hypertension.
