Olaparib and Cediranib Maleate in Treating Patients With Recurrent Ovarian, Primary Peritoneal, or Fallopian Tube Cancer

• Status: Active, not recruiting
• Trial end date: 2022-06-30
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: Female

Summary

This phase II trial studies how well olaparib and cediranib maleate work in treating patients with ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube cancer that has come back (recurrent). Olaparib and cediranib maleate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

• Phase: Phase 2
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No

Details

• Lead Sponsor: National Cancer Institute (NCI)
• Treatments: Cediranib; Maleic acid; Olaparib; Poly(ADP-ribose) Polymerase Inhibitors

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

• Participants may not have a history of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biologic composition to cediranib or olaparib

• Participants receiving any medications or substances that are strong inhibitors or inducers of cytochrome P450, family 3, subfamily A, polypeptide 4 (CYP3A4) or moderate inhibitors of CYP3A4 are ineligible; the study team should check a frequently-updated medical reference for a list of drugs to avoid or minimize use of; as part of the enrollment/informed consent procedures, the patient will be counseled on the risk of interactions with other agents, and what to do if new medications need to be prescribed or if the patient is considering a new over-the-counter medicine or herbal product; dihydropyridine calcium-channel blockers are permitted for management of hypertension

• Pregnant women are excluded from this study because olaparib and cediranib have the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects; because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with olaparib and cediranib, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with cediranib and olaparib; these potential risks may also apply to other agents used in this study

• Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients on combination antiretroviral therapy are ineligible because of the potential for pharmacokinetic interactions with cediranib or olaparib; in addition, these patients are at increased risk of lethal infections when treated with marrow-suppressive therapy; appropriate studies will be undertaken in patients receiving combination antiretroviral therapy when indicated
