SOLACE 2: This Phase II trial is comparing the effectiveness of a chemotherapy drug (Olaparib) alone and as part of a combination therapy in patients with recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancers that have homologous recombination repair defectsA Phase II randomised trial comparing immune priming by low dose oral cyclophosphamide plus olaparib versus priming by olaparib alone, prior to combination therapy with olaparib plus durvalumab, versus single agent olaparib alone, in asymptomatic platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancers with homologous recombination repair defects

Clinical summary

Summary

Participants will be randomised to receive treatment according to one of the following three groups: (1) Olaparib and cyclophosphamide (50mg daily) followed by olaparib and durvalumab (1500mg every 4 weeks for 12 cycles), or (2) Olaparib followed by olaparib and durvalumab (as above), or (3) Olaparib alone. In each group, 300mg Olaparib will be administered orally, twice daily until progression occurs.

Conditions

This trial is treating patients with Ovarian Cancer, Fallopian Tube Cancer or Primary Peritoneal Cancer.

Scientific Title

A Phase II randomised trial comparing immune priming by low dose oral cyclophosphamide plus olaparib versus priming by olaparib alone, prior to combination therapy with olaparib plus durvalumab, versus single agent olaparib alone, in asymptomatic platinum-sensitive recurrent ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancers with homologous recombination repair defects

Eligibility

Inclusion

1. Women, aged 18 years and older, with histologically confirmed high-grade serous carcinoma of the ovary, fallopian tube or primary peritoneum.
2. Undergone prior adequate debulking surgery, as appropriate, and 1 line of platinum-based chemotherapy. Patients who received bevacizumab or hormonal therapy as part of first-line treatment are eligible.
3. Known germline BRCA1 and BRCA2 status. Both BRCA mutant and BRCA wild-type patients are eligible, but they must have normalisation of CA125 to less than upper limit of normal (ULN), defined as 35 units/mL, by the end of first-line chemotherapy.
4. CA125 progression after first-line treatment, occurring 6 months or more following the last dose of chemotherapy. Participants must have raised CA125 readings twice the ULN (greater than or equal to 70 kU/L) on 2 occasions at least 1 week apart. The following circumstances are also considered eligible:
• If CA125 is less than 70 kU/L, patient must have evaluable disease on imaging (RECIST measurable or non-measurable);
• In the absence of RECIST measurable disease, CA125 progression (greater than or equal to 70 kU/L) after first-line treatment occurring 4 months or more following last dose of chemotherapy is allowed.
5. No indication for immediate chemotherapy or secondary debulking surgery.
6. ECOG performance status of 0-1.
7. Confirmation of the availability of tumour tissue (FFPE) for translational studies (a cell pellet from ascites or pleural fluid is not acceptable). If no tissue is available, patients will not be eligible for this study.
8. Adequate bone marrow function (measured within 28 days prior to registration and with values within the ranges specified below):
• Absolute neutrophil count equal to or greater than 1.5 x 109 /L
• Platelet count equal to or greater than 100 x 109 /L
• Haemoglobin equal to or greater than 100 g/L with no blood transfusion in the past 28 days
• Peripheral blood smear must not show any features suggestive of myelodysplastic syndrome/acute myeloblastic leukaemia.
9. Adequate liver function, as follows:
• Total bilirubin equal to or less than 1.5 x institutional upper limit of normal (ULN)
• Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), equal to or less than 2.5 x ULN (or equal to or less than 5 x ULN if liver metastases AST (SGOT), ALT (SGPT are present)
10. Adequate renal function, as follows:
• Serum creatinine equal to or less than 1.5 x ULN, or
• Creatinine clearance greater than 50mL/min (Cockcroft-Gault Formula)
11. Willing and able to comply with all study requirements, including treatment, timing and/or nature of required assessments.
12. Signed, written informed consent prior to any study specific procedures.

Exclusion

1. Previous randomisation in the present study.
2. Any previous treatment with a PARP inhibitor, including olaparib.
3. Any previous treatment with durvalumab, or any other anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1, anti-PD-L2, anti-CTLA-4 antibodies or any other antibody or drug specifically targeting T cell co-stimulation or immune checkpoint pathways.
4. Concomitant use of known strong CYP3A inhibitors (e.g. itraconazole, telithromycin, clarithromycin, protease inhibitors boosted with ritonavir or cobicistat, indinavir, saquinavir, nelfinavir, boceprevir, telaprevir) or moderate CYP3A inhibitors (e.g. ciprofloxacin, erythromycin, diltiazem, fluconazole, verapamil). The required washout period prior to starting olaparib is 2 weeks.
5. Concomitant use of known strong (e.g. phenobarbital, enzalutamide, phenytoin, rifampicin, rifabutin, rifapentine, carbamazepine, nevirapine and St John’s Wort) or moderate CYP3A inducers (e.g. bosentan, efavirenz, modafinil). The required washout period prior to starting olaparib is 5 weeks for enzalutamide or phenobarbital and 3 weeks from the last study dose for other agents.).
6. Treatment with any investigational product during the last 14 days (or a longer period depending on the defined characteristics of the agents used).
7. Patients receiving any systemic anti-cancer treatment (including endocrine therapy, chemotherapy or VEGF-targeted agents) or radiotherapy (except for palliative reasons), within 14 days from the last dose prior to study treatment (or a longer period depending on the defined characteristics of the agents used).
