Summary

This research study is a way of gaining new knowledge about a drug called olaparib in women who have either: 1)never received a PARP inhibitor before to treat ovarian cancer (group 1) or 2)participants who have received a PARP inhibitor before to treat ovarian cancer, with the exception of olaparib (group 2). PARP inhibitors are drugs tht prevent cancer cells from repairing their DNA. In this research study, we are looking to see how well the drug olaparib works in women who have never received a PARP inhibitor for recurrent ovarian cancer as well as those who have received a prior PARP inhibitor and whose cancer has re-grown after receiving that PARP inhibitor.

Detailed description

Olaparib tablets will be taken twice daily, orally, in treatment cycles lasting 4 weeks. On days 1, 8, 12 and 22 of the first 2 cycles and day 1 of all other cycles, subjects will have a physical exam, be asked questions about their general health, and specific questions about any problems they might be having and any medications they are taking. Tumor will be assess by either CT or MRI scan every 2 cycles (every 2 months). Tumor biopsies will be optional in this study. Only participants that have received a PARP inhibitor in the past will be asked to have a biopsy of their tumor.
