Brief Summary: Around 15-25 of ovarian cancer OC patients carry germ-line mutation in BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes Recent evidences showed that OC women with germline BRCA12 mutations gBRCAmut have an improved survival and higher platinum-sensitivity compared to BRCA12 naive BRCAwt

Interestingly disease appearance in BRCAmut women is more diffuse than in BRCAwt cases with significantly higher peritoneal tumour load

Nonetheless BRCAmut women additionally show a higher benefit of platinum-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy NACT plus interval debulking surgery compared with BRCAwt women in terms of clinical and pathological responses suggesting that BRCA mutational status might be used as a molecular tool to personalize treatment in high-grade serous ovarian cancer HGSOC patients

OLAPARIB in BRCA mutation carriers Olaparib is a potent oral poly ADP-ribose polymerase PARP inhibitor that causes synthetic lethality in BRCA12-deficient tumour cells In patients with platinum-sensitive relapsed serous ovarian cancer olaparib maintenance treatment significantly improved the duration of progression-free survival compared with placebo hazard ratio HR 035 95 CI confidence interval 025-049 p00001 with the greatest clinical benefit in patients with BRCA mutations HR 018 95 CI 010-031 p00001

Preclinical data suggest that olaparib might also potentiate the efficacy of DNA-damaging chemotherapies including platinum-containing drugs such as carboplatin

In a recent phase IbII study olaparib plus weekly carboplatin and paclitaxel in relapsed ovarian cancer patients was shown to be safe well tolerated and effective especially in germline BRCA mutated gBRCAmut patients

Possibly the addition of a PARP inhibitor olaparib to NACT in HGSOC patient with germline or somatic BRCA12 mutation is able to increase the pathological complete response rate to conventional chemotherapy Combination of intermittent olaparib with weekly carboplatin and paclitaxel might achieve a higher pathological response rate with an acceptable toxicity profile
