Lung cancer drug trial halted: olaparib shows no clear benefit in maintenance therapy
NCT ID NCT02679963
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether the drug olaparib could help keep advanced non-small cell lung cancer from growing after initial chemotherapy. Only patients whose cancer responded to platinum-based chemotherapy were eligible. The trial was terminated early, meaning it did not show enough benefit to continue. About 180 patients were planned to take part.
