abstract
PURPOSE In SOLO1/GOG 3004 (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01844986), maintenance therapy with the
poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor olaparib provided a sustained progression-free survival benefit in
patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer and a BRCA1 and/or BRCA2 (BRCA) mutation. We
report overall survival (OS) after a 7-year follow-up, a clinically relevant time point and the longest follow-up for
any poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor in the first-line setting.
METHODS This double-blind phase III trial randomly assigned patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian
cancer and a BRCA mutation in clinical response to platinum-based chemotherapy to maintenance olaparib
(n 5 260) or placebo (n 5 131) for up to 2 years. A prespecified descriptive analysis of OS, a secondary end
point, was conducted after a 7-year follow-up.
RESULTS The median duration of treatment was 24.6 months with olaparib and 13.9 months with placebo, and
the median follow-up was 88.9 and 87.4 months, respectively. The hazard ratio for OS was 0.55 (95% CI, 0.40 to
0.76; P 5 .0004 [P , .0001 required to declare statistical significance]). At 7 years, 67.0% of olaparib patients
versus 46.5% of placebo patients were alive, and 45.3% versus 20.6%, respectively, were alive and had not
received a first subsequent treatment (Kaplan-Meier estimates). The incidence of myelodysplastic syndrome
and acute myeloid leukemia remained low, and new primary malignancies remained balanced between
treatment groups.
CONCLUSION Results indicate a clinically meaningful, albeit not statistically significant according to prespecified
criteria, improvement in OS with maintenance olaparib in patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian
cancer and a BRCA mutation and support the use of maintenance olaparib to achieve long-term remission in this
setting; the potential for cure may also be enhanced. No new safety signals were observed during long-term
ASSOCIATED follow-up.

CONTEXT
Key Objective
No overall survival (OS) benefit has yet been reported for poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor maintenance therapy in
women with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer. The authors here report OS with maintenance olaparib in SOLO1
patients with newly diagnosed advanced BRCA-mutated ovarian cancer after a 7-year follow-up.
Knowledge Generated
Results indicate a clinically meaningful, albeit not statistically significant, improvement in OS with maintenance olaparib
versus placebo, with two thirds of olaparib patients, versus fewer than half of placebo patients, alive at 7 years. No new
safety signals were observed.
