The PARP inhibitor olaparib significantly improved progression-free survival as frontline maintenance therapy for women with BRCA-positive advanced ovarian cancer, according to findings from the randomized phase III SOLO-1 trial.

Genetically engineered T-cells targeting a common tumor antigen appeared safe and demonstrated some evidence of antitumor activity in a first-in-human clinical evaluation.

The PARP inhibitor niraparib has shown durable clinical activity in later lines of therapy in patients with relapsed ovarian cancer who have BRCA mutations, according to a posthoc analysis of the phase II QUADRA study.
