Article Title: Olaparib treatment for platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer by BRCA mutation and homologous recombination deficiency status: Phase II LIGHT study primary analysis
Abstract: Objective: Olaparib treatment resulted in significant improvement in objective response rates (ORRs) and progression-free survival (PFS) over non‐platinum chemotherapy in patients with BRCA1/BRCA2-mutated (BRCAm) platinum-sensitive relapsed ovarian cancer (PSROC) and ≥2 prior lines of platinum-based chemotherapy in the phase III SOLO3 study. LIGHT (NCT02983799) prospectively evaluated olaparib treatment for patients with PSROC and known BRCAm and homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) status. Methods: In this phase II open-label multicenter study, patients with PSROC and ≥1 prior line of platinum-based chemotherapy were assigned to cohorts by presence of germline BRCAm (gBRCAm), somatic BRCAm (sBRCAm), HRD-positive tumors without BRCAm, or HRD-negative tumors. The primary endpoint was investigator-assessed ORR. Secondary endpoints included disease control rate (DCR) and PFS. Tumors were analyzed using Myriad BRACAnalysis CDx and myChoice HRD assays; HRD-positive tumors were defined using a genomic instability score of ≥42. Results: Of 272 enrolled patients, 271 received olaparib and 270 were included in efficacy analyses. At data cut-off, ORRs in the gBRCAm, sBRCAm, HRD-positive, and HRD-negative cohorts were 69.3%, 64.0%, 29.4%, and 10.1%, respectively. DCRs were 96.0%, 100.0%, 79.4%, and 75.3% in each cohort, respectively. Median PFS was 11.0, 10.8, 7.2, and 5.4 months, respectively. The most common (≥ 20%) treatment-emergent adverse events included nausea, fatigue/asthenia, vomiting, anemia, constipation, diarrhea, and decreased appetite. Conclusions: Olaparib treatment demonstrated activity across all cohorts. The greatest efficacy was observed in the BRCAm cohorts, regardless of gBRCAm/sBRCAm. For patients without a BRCAm, greater efficacy was observed in the HRD-positive than the HRD-negative cohorts. The safety profile was consistent with that established in previous olaparib studies. © 2022 The Authors
