Oxaliplatin prior to PARP inhibitor in BRCA-mutated ovarian cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The use of PARP inhibitor (PARPi) has shown a considerable benefit in progression-free survival (PFS) in relapsed, platinum-sensitive epithelial ovarian cancer (OC).

Objective

Our study aimed to investigate the impact of the last platinum-based chemotherapy treatment in response to PARPi.

Design

Retrospective cohort study.

Patients and methods

The study involved 96 consecutive, pretreated, platinum-sensitive advanced OC patients. Demographics and clinical data were retrieved from clinical records. PFS and overall survival (OS) were calculated from the start of PARPi.

Results

Germline BRCA mutation was investigated in all cases. Platinum-based chemotherapy before PARPi maintenance therapy included pegylated liposomal doxorubicin-oxaliplatin (PL
