Therapy Name Olaparib
Synonyms
Therapy Description

Lynparza (olaparib) binds to and inhibits PARP, resulting in inhibition of DNA repair and lethality in homologous-recombination deficient cells, and may be a sensitizing agent for chemotherapy and radiotherapy (PMID: 25028150, PMID: 24225019). Lynparza (olaparib) is FDA approved for treatment of ERBB2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer with deleterious or suspected deleterious germline BRCA mutations, ovarian cancer with deleterious or suspected deleterious germline BRCA mutations and received 3 or more prior therapies, metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma with deleterious or suspected deleterious germline BRCA mutations as a maintenance therapy, metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) with deleterious or suspected deleterious germline or somatic homologous recombination repair gene mutations who progressed following enzalutamide or abiraterone, in combination with abiraterone in patients with mCRPC harboring deleterious or suspected deleterious BRCA mutations, as a maintenance therapy in recurrent epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer and in epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer with deleterious or suspected deleterious germline or somatic BRCA mutation, and in combination with Avastin (bevacizumab) as maintenance therapy in HDR defective epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube or primary peritoneal cancer as defined by deleterious or suspected deleterious BRCA mutation, and/or genomic instability (FDA.gov).

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
