Analysis Pinpoints Veliparib Antitumor Activity in Ovarian Cancer
April 6th 2020Adding veliparib to frontline induction chemotherapy increased complete and CA-125 responses compared with chemotherapy alone in patients with high-grade serous ovarian cancer, according to an exploratory analysis of the phase III VELIA trial.
Rucaparib Improves Postprogression Outcomes in Non-BRCA HRR Mutated Ovarian Cancer
Rucaparib was associated with superior outcomes among women with ovarian cancer harboring a non-BRCA homologous recombination repair gene mutation compared with placebo, according to an analysis of specimens collected in the phase III ARIEL3 trial (NCT01968213).

If Only That Phase III Oncology Trial Had Been Designed Differently
February 19th 2020The cancer treatment community's ultimate perception of a successfully completed phase III randomized trial depends in large part on how well the trial was conceived and structured. To permit adequate accrual in a timely manner and optimize the chances for a study to achieve success, the question it poses must be relevant to ensure interest by clinical investigators, referring clinicians, and potential research subjects. Further, the initiative must have adequate funding for data collection and analysis, translational laboratory investigations, and other trial components.
Role of PARP Inhibition Shifts in Ovarian Cancer as Research Efforts Expand
February 11th 2020Robert L. Coleman, MD, FACOG, FACS, discusses the role of rucaparib as a treatment option for patients with ovarian cancer, how this agent compares with other PARP inhibitors in this space, and where research is headed for these agents.
