Olaparib is an oral poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase inhibitor that has promising antitumor activity in patients with metastatic breast cancer and a germline BRCA mutation.
We conducted a randomized, open-label, phase 3 trial in which olaparib monotherapy was compared with standard therapy in patients with a germline BRCA mutation and human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2)-negative metastatic breast cancer who had received no more than two previous chemotherapy regimens for metastatic disease. Patients were randomly assigned, in a 2:1 ratio, to receive olaparib tablets (300 mg twice daily) or standard therapy with single-agent chemotherapy of the physician's choice (capecitabine, eribulin, or vinorelbine in 21-day cycles). The primary end point was progression-free survival, which was assessed by blinded independent central review and was analyzed on an intention-to-treat basis.
Of the 302 patients who underwent randomization, 205 were assigned to receive olaparib and 97 were assigned to receive standard therapy. Median progression-free survival was significantly longer in the olaparib group than in the standard-therapy group (7.0 months vs. 4.2 months; hazard ratio for disease progression or death, 0.58; 95% confidence interval, 0.43 to 0.80; P<0.001). The response rate was 59.9% in the olaparib group and 28.8% in the standard-therapy group. The rate of grade 3 or higher adverse events was 36.6% in the olaparib group and 50.5% in the standard-therapy group, and the rate of treatment discontinuation due to toxic effects was 4.9% and 7.7%, respectively.
Among patients with HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer and a germline BRCA mutation, olaparib monotherapy provided a significant benefit over standard therapy; median progression-free survival was 2.8 months longer and the risk of disease progression or death was 42% lower with olaparib monotherapy than with standard therapy.

奥拉帕利是一种口服聚(二腺苷二磷酸核糖)聚合酶抑制剂,在转移性乳腺癌和种系 BRCA 突变的患者中具有有前景的抗肿瘤活性。
我们进行了一项随机、开放标签、3 期试验,比较了奥拉帕利单药治疗与标准治疗在种系 BRCA 突变和人表皮生长因子受体 2(HER2)阴性转移性乳腺癌患者中的疗效,这些患者接受转移性疾病的最多两线化疗后。患者按 2:1 的比例随机分配,接受奥拉帕利片(每日两次,每次 300mg)或标准治疗,即医生选择的单药化疗(卡培他滨、艾日布林或长春瑞滨,每 21 天为一个周期)。主要终点是无进展生存期,通过盲法独立中心审查评估,并按意向治疗进行分析。
在 302 名接受随机分组的患者中,205 名患者被分配接受奥拉帕利治疗,97 名患者被分配接受标准治疗。奥拉帕利组的无进展生存期明显长于标准治疗组(7.0 个月 vs. 4.2 个月;疾病进展或死亡的风险比,0.58;95%置信区间,0.43 至 0.80;P<0.001)。奥拉帕利组的缓解率为 59.9%,标准治疗组为 28.8%。奥拉帕利组的 3 级或以上不良事件发生率为 36.6%,标准治疗组为 50.5%,因毒性反应而停止治疗的发生率分别为 4.9%和 7.7%。
在 HER2 阴性转移性乳腺癌和种系 BRCA 突变的患者中,奥拉帕利单药治疗比标准治疗显著获益;与标准治疗相比,奥拉帕利单药治疗可使中位无进展生存期延长 2.8 个月,疾病进展或死亡风险降低 42%。(由阿斯利康公司资助;OlympiAD 临床试验.gov 编号,NCT02000622)。
