Olaparib's Real-World impact on BRCA ovarian cancer examined
NCT ID NCT04532645
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study looked back at medical records of 342 women in Europe with advanced ovarian cancer and a BRCA gene mutation. All had taken the drug olaparib (Lynparza) as their first maintenance treatment after initial chemotherapy. Researchers tracked how long patients lived without their cancer getting worse and overall survival over three years. The goal was to see how well olaparib works in everyday medical practice.
