Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

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 after a period of improvement (recurrent). Olaparib and cediranib maleate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To evaluate the association of BROCA-homologous recombination (HR) with the clinical activity of cediranib maleate (cediranib)/olaparib, as measured by progression-free survival (PFS), in women with recurrent platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer.

II. To assess the clinical activity of cediranib/olaparib, as measured by objective response, in women with recurrent platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To assess overall survival (OS), objective response, and clinical benefit (stable disease \[SD\] or response \>= 16 weeks) in women with platinum-sensitive ovarian cancer, and PFS, OS, and clinical benefit in women with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.

II. To assess the safety of cediranib/olaparib in women with recurrent platinum-sensitive and -resistant ovarian cancer.

III. To evaluate the association of circulating endothelial cells at baseline and day 3 with the clinical activity of cediranib/olaparib, as measured by PFS, in women with platinum-sensitive and -resistant ovarian cancer.

IV. To evaluate changes in BROCA-HR status between archival and pre-treatment biopsy samples.

V. To evaluate the associate of BROCA-HR with the clinical activity of cediranib/olaparib as measured by PFS, in women with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.

VI. To characterize genomic alteration by whole exome sequencing in women with platinum-sensitive and -resistant ovarian cancer.

VII. To identify biomarker signatures that correlate with the clinical activity of cediranib/olaparib in women with recurrent platinum-sensitive and -resistant ovarian cancer, including changes in gene expression or acquired mutations in on-treatment tumor biopsies that are associated with clinical activity, and changes in gene expression or acquired mutations in post-progression biopsies that are associated with clinical resistance.

VIII. To explore changes in biomarker signatures and candidate angiogenic markers from pre-treatment to post-progression in women with platinum-sensitive and -resistant ovarian cancer.

IX. To evaluate the population pharmacokinetics (PK) of the combination of cediranib and olaparib (tablets) in platinum-sensitive and -resistant ovarian cancer.

EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:

I. To determine the feasibility of a mobile phone application (app) ecediranib-olaparib (eCO) to collect patient-generated blood pressure and symptom data based upon study protocol recommendations.

II. Assess patient and health care professional perceived usability and satisfaction of the eCO app (for patients) and of a connected web portal (for health care providers).

III. Assess the number of generated alerts to the study team (via the web portal and email "high" alerts) based on pre-determined severity levels.

OUTLINE:

Patients receive olaparib orally (PO) twice daily (BID) and cediranib maleate PO once daily (QD) on days 1-28 of each cycle. Cycles repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Additionally, patients undergo a biopsy of tumor, blood sample collection, multigated acquisition scan (MUGA) or echocardiogram, and computed tomography (CT) scan or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan throughout the study.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up for 30 days.

* Participants may not have had any prior history of hypertensive crisis or hypertensive encephalopathy
* Participants may not have had history of abdominal fistula or gastrointestinal perforation; patients with a history of abdominal fistula will be considered eligible if the fistula has healed or was surgically repaired, there has been no evidence of fistula for at least 6 months, and patient is deemed to be at low risk of recurrent fistula

* 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
