Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to identify the genetic characteristic(s), specifically degree of African ancestry, and environmental characteristic(s) that appear to be related to the effects, both good and bad, that the maintenance treatment has women with ovarian cancer. In this study, an investigational medication called niraparib is being tested for the treatment of ovarian cancer. Niraparib works by blocking the ability of cancer cells to fix their genes. Cancer cells with damaged genes have a harder time growing and spreading in the body and can even die.

11. Participant has received a transfusion (platelets or red blood cells) or colony-stimulating factors (eg, granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor or recombinant erythropoietin) within 4 weeks before the first dose of study treatment.

12. Participant has had radiotherapy encompassing >20% of the bone marrow within 2 weeks or any radiation therapy within 1 week before Day 1 of protocol therapy.

13. Participant has leptomeningeal disease, carcinomatous meningitis, symptomatic brain metastasis, or radiographic signs of central nervous system hemorrhage.

14. Participant has current active pneumonitis or any history of pneumonitis requiring steroids (any dose) or immunomodulatory treatment within 90 days of planned start of the study.

15. Participants with active hepatitis B or C infection.

16. Patient with prior history of posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES).

17. Patients with impaired decision-making capacity.

18. Participants have high medical risk due to a serious, uncontrolled medical disorder; non malignant systemic disease; or active, uncontrolled infection. Examples include, but are not limited to, uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmia, recent (within 90 days) myocardial infarction, uncontrolled major seizure disorder, unstable spinal cord compression, superior vena cava syndrome, active uncontrolled coagulopathy, bleeding disorder, or any psychiatric disorder that prohibits obtaining informed consent.

19. Patient is currently receiving one or more cytotoxic, hormonal, or other medications to treat their cancer.

Primary	Proportion of Participants Experiencing Any Grade or Grade 3 or Higher of the Most Common Adverse Events (AEs) Previously Reported in the PRIMA trial (NCT02655016).	The proportion of participants in this study experiencing any grade or grade 3 or higher of the most common adverse events (AEs), of any treatment attribution, as those previously reported in the PRIMA Trial (NCT02655016). Adverse events will be assessed using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0. The most common adverse events previously reported include: Anemia, nausea, thrombocytopenia, constipation, fatigue, neutropenia, headache, insomnia, vomiting, abdominal pain, and hypertension.	Up to 3 years
Secondary	Proportion of Participants Experiencing Grade 3 or Higher Toxicity	The proportion of participants experiencing any grade or grade 3 or higher adverse events, and serious adverse events (SAEs) will be reported, regardless of treatment attribution. Adverse events (AEs) or serious adverse event (SAEs) leading to treatment discontinuation, dose reduction, dose interruption, or death will also be reported. Adverse events will be assessed using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0.	Up to 3 years
Secondary	Proportion of Participants Experiencing Grade 3 or Higher Treatment-Related Adverse Event	The proportion of participants experiencing any grade or grade 3 or higher treatment-related adverse event (TRAE) will be reported. Adverse events will be assessed using the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 5.0.	Up to 3 years
Secondary	Recurrence-Free Survival	Recurrence-free survival (RFS) among participants will be reported. RFS is defined as the elapsed time from the start date of study therapy to the date of recurrence as measured by cancer-antigen 125 (CA-125) levels in the blood and by computed tomography (CT) imaging utilizing Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.1) criteria; or until date of death from any cause.
