Authors' results and conclusions: SOLO1 trial results showed a benefit with olaparib first-line maintenance therapy in delaying the disease progression in patients with newly diagnosed ovarian cancer and BRCA1/2 mutation. However, the trial is currently ongoing, the presented data are the primary analysis data, and interim overall survival (OS) data are immature. Health-related quality of life data also derives from primary analysis and the detected between-group difference was not considered to be clinically meaningful. Final analysis data from the SOLO1 trial is pending and may confirm the clinical benefit of olaparib first-line maintenance therapy.
Authors' recommendations: Further investigation of olaparib first-line maintenance therapy in phase III trials, long-term data, as well as a direct comparison of olaparib with different poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors are warranted to determine the optimal treatment for this patient population.
