Testing Olaparib in Patients With Advanced or Metastatic (Cancer That Has Spread) Bladder Cancer and Other Genitourinary Tumors With DNA-Repair Genetic Changes
A Phase II Study of Olaparib (AZD2281) in Patients With Metastatic/Advanced Urothelial Carcinoma and Other Genitourinary Tumors With DNA-Repair Defects
National Cancer Institute (NCI)
60 participants
Nov 3, 2020
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
This phase II trial studies how well olaparib works in treating patients with bladder cancer and other genitourinary tumors with deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)-repair defects that has spread to other places in the body (advanced or metastatic) and usually cannot be cured or controlled with treatment. PARPs are proteins that help repair DNA mutations. PARP inhibitors, such as olaparib, can keep PARP from working, so tumor cells can't repair themselves, and they may stop growing.
