Detailed Description

Patients will be randomised in 1:1 ratio to either olaparib or placebo. Randomisation will be stratified by Hormone receptor status (ER and/or PgR positive/HER2 negative versus TNBC), prior neoadjuvant versus adjuvant chemotherapy and prior platinum use for breast cancer. Randomised patients will receive study treatment for up to a maximum of 12 months. All patients will have safety assessments every 2 weeks during the first month, every 4 weeks for the following 5 months and 3 monthly for the remaining 6 months of study treatment plus 30 days after its discontinuation. Following randomisation, all patients will be assessed regularly for signs, symptoms and evidence of disease recurrence by taking medical history, physical examination and mammogram/breast MRI. Efficacy assessments will be performed on a 3 monthly basis during the first 2 years, followed by 6 monthly assessments for years 3, 4 and 5 and annually thereafter. All patients (except those with bilateral mastectomy) will have mammogram / breast MRI annually for 10 years beginning 6 months after randomisation. All randomised patients will have clinical assessment visits for 10 years following their randomisation into the study. Once a patient completes 10 years of clinical assessment they will enter the survival follow up phase of the trial which will continue until 10 years after the last patient is randomised.

Clinical Trial Outcome Measures

Primary Measures

  • Invasive Disease Free Survival (IDFS)
    • Time Frame: From date of randomisation to data cut off: 27 March 2020 (approximately 5 years 11 months)
    • An IDFS event is defined as the first occurrence of loco-regional or distant recurrence or new cancer or death from any cause.

Secondary Measures

  • Distant Disease Free Survival (DDFS)
    • Time Frame: From date of randomisation to data cut off: 27 March 2020 (approximately 5 years 11 months)
    • A DDFS event is defined as documented evidence of first distant recurrence of breast cancer or death from any cause
  • Overall Survival (OS)
    • Time Frame: From date of randomisation to data cut off: 12 July 2021 (approximately 7 years 3 months)
    • An OS event is defined as death by any cause.
  • Number of Participants With Contralateral Invasive and Non-invasive Breast Cancer, New Primary Ovarian Cancer, New Primary Fallopian Tube Cancer and New Primary Peritoneal Cancer
    • Time Frame: From date of randomisation to data cut off: 12 July 2021 (approximately 7 years 3 months)
    • Number of patients with contralateral invasive breast cancer, contralateral non-invasive breast cancer, new primary ovarian cancer, new primary fallopian tube cancer and new primary peritoneal cancer. Analysis of contralateral breast cancers exclude patients with a bilateral mastectomy prior to randomisation. Analysis of new primary ovarian cancers excludes male patients and patients with a bilateral oophorectomy prior to randomisation. Analysis of new primary fallopian tube cancer excludes male patients and patients with a bilateral salpingectomy prior to randomisation. Analysis of new primary peritoneal cancers excludes male patients.
  • Change From Baseline for FACIT-Fatigue (Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue) Score for Participants Who Completed Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy
    • Time Frame: 6, 12, 18 and 24 months after randomisation (data cut off: 12 July 2021)
    • Change from baseline for FACIT-Fatigue Score at 6, 12, 18 and 24 months for patients who completed neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Adjusted least-square mean changes and 95% Confidence Interval (CI) are obtained from mixed model for repeated measures (MMRM) analysis of the change from baseline. Only patients with evaluable baseline forms are included. FACIT-Fatigue score ranges from 0 to 52 with higher score indicating less fatigue.
