NCT02446600; NRG-GY004 III Carboplatin, Cediranib, Gemcitabine, Liposomal doxorubicin, Olaparib, Paclitaxel A Phase III Study Comparing Single-Agent Olaparib or the Combination of Cediranib and Olaparib to Standard Platinum-Based Chemotherapy in Women With Recurrent Platinum-Sensitive Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, or Primary Peritoneal Cancer

Cediranib+olaparib has similar activity to standard of care in relapsed platinum sensitive ovarian cancer but does not improve PFS or OS; in gBRCA MUT patients cediranib+olaparib and olaparib alone shows substantial activity

Ola+Ced vs Ola vs Treatment of Physician's Choice (TPC):

ORR: 69.4 vs 52.4 vs 71.3%
PFS: 10.4 vs 8.2 vs 10.3 months
OS: 33.5 vs 31.0 vs 32.7 months

NCT01116648 II Cediranib, Olaparib Phase I/II Study of Cediranib and Olaparib in Combination for Treatment of Recurrent Papillary-Serous Ovarian, Fallopian Tube, or Peritoneal Cancer or for Treatment of Recurrent Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

Improved ORR, PFS and OS for cediranib+olaparib combination in patients with gBRCA WT or unknown BRCA status

Ola+Ced vs Ola:

gBRCA WT or UNK:
ORR: 76 vs 32%*
PFS: 23.7 vs 5.7 months*

Cediranib+olaparib has manageable toxicity and shows evidence of anti-tumor activity in heavily pretreated platinum resistant non-gBRCA MUT patients

The combination of olaparib and cediranib is not superior to chemotherapy in terms of PFS in heavily pretreated Pt-R OC patients. However, this oral doublet, is active and may offer a non-chemotherapy option in this difficult to treat population
