Abstract 230P
Background
SOLO1 (NCT01844986) is a randomized, double-blind, phase III trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of the PARP inhibitor, olaparib, as maintenance monotherapy in newly diagnosed advanced OC pts with a BRCAm. A separate pt cohort evaluated the efficacy and safety of olaparib in Chinese pts in this setting.
Methods
The China cohort of SOLO1 planned to enrol ∼53 newly diagnosed OC pts who had completed first-line platinum-based chemotherapy and were in clinical complete or partial response. This sample size provided around a 90% chance to observe a hazard ratio (HR) of < 1, assuming a true HR of 0.62. Pts were randomized 2:1 to olaparib (300 mg bid; tablet) vs placebo. The primary endpoint was investigator-assessed progression-free survival (PFS; modified RECIST v1.1). Sensitivity analysis of PFS was performed by blinded independent central review (BICR).
Results
All 64 randomized pts received study treatment (olaparib, n = 44; placebo n = 20). Median follow-up was ∼30 months in both arms. Median PFS was not reached in the olaparib arm and was 9.3 months in the placebo arm (Table).
Table: 230P
PFS events, n | Median PFS, months | HR (95% CI; P value) | |||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Olaparib (n = 44) | Placebo (n = 20) | Olaparib (n = 44) | Placebo (n = 20) | Full analysis set (n = 64) | |
PFS, investigator assessed (48.4% maturity) | 18 | 13 | NR | 9.3 | 0.46 (0.23, 0.97; 0.0320) |
PFS, BICR (39.1% maturity) | 13 | 12 | NR | 9.3 | 0.39 (0.17, 0.86; 0.0168) |
CI, confidence interval; NR, not reached.
The most common AEs in the olaparib group were nausea (n = 28, 63.6%), anaemia (n = 25, 56.8%) and vomiting (n = 18, 40.9%). Grade ≥3 AEs occurred in 56.8% of olaparib pts vs 30.0% of placebo pts; the most common grade ≥3 AE was anaemia (n = 16, 36.4%). Olaparib dose interruptions, reductions and discontinuations occurred in 56.8%, 27.3% and 6.8% of pts, respectively (vs 30.0%, 10% and 0% of pts in the placebo arm).
Conclusions
In the China cohort of SOLO1, a clinically relevant improvement in investigator-assessed PFS was observed in newly diagnosed OC pts receiving olaparib maintenance therapy. Olaparib treatment led to a 54% reduction in risk of progression or death vs placebo. The safety results were consistent with the known profile of olaparib in Chinese pts.
