lesion, not previously irradiated, that can be accurately measured at baseline as = 10
mm in the longest diameter (except lymph nodes which must have short axis > or equal
15 mm) with computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and which is
suitable for accurate repeated measurements.
9. Patients must have normal organ and bone marrow function measured within 35 days prior
to administration of study treatment as defined below:
Hematological: White blood cell (WBC) count >3.0 x 109/L, absolute neutrophil count
(ANC) > or equal 1.5 x 109/L, platelet count =100.0 x109/L, and hemoglobin >10.0 g/dL
(>6.2 mmol/L) with no blood transfusion in the past 35 days.
Hepatic: bilirubin = 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (x ULN); alkaline phosphatase
(ALP), Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase
(SGOT)) / Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (Serum Glutamic Pyruvate Transaminase (SGPT))
< or equal 2.5 x institutional upper limit of normal unless liver metastases are
present in which case they must be < or equal 5x ULN.
Renal: creatinine clearance estimated using the Cockcroft-Gault equation of > or equal
51 mL/min
10. Patient has been informed about the nature of study, and has agreed to participate,
and signed the Informed Consent form (ICF) prior to participation in any study-related
activities
11. No other malignancies within the past five years except adequate treated basal cell or
squamous cell skin cancer or carcinoma in situ of the cervix
12. Resolution of all acute toxic effects of prior anti-cancer therapy or surgical
procedures to NCICTCAE version 4.03 Grade < or equal 1 (except alopecia or other
toxicities not considered a safety risk for the patient at investigator's discretion).
13. Postmenopausal or evidence of non-childbearing status for women of childbearing
potential: negative urine or serum pregnancy test within 28 days prior to
administration of study treatment and confirmed prior to treatment on day 1.
Postmenopausal is defined as:
Amenorrheic for 1 year or more following cessation of exogenous hormonal treatments;
Luteinizing hormone (LH) and Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) levels in the
post-menopausal range for women under 50; Radiation-induced oophorectomy with last menses
>1 year ago; Chemotherapy-induced menopause with >1 year interval since last menses;
Surgical sterilization (bilateral oophorectomy or hysterectomy).
Exclusion Criteria:
Patients will be excluded from the study if they meet ANY of the following criteria:
1. RH-positive (based on local laboratory results) or unknown for the first stage. In the
second stage, luminal-like HER2-negative patients will be allowed.
2. HER2-positive (based on local laboratory results [performed by
immunohistochemistry/fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)] or unknown.
3. Locally advanced breast cancer candidate for a radical treatment.
4. Has deleterious germline BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation as determined by local test.
5. Patients with symptomatic uncontrolled brain metastases. A scan to confirm the absence
of brain metastases is not required. The patient can receive a stable dose of
corticosteroids before and during the study as long as these were started at least 4
weeks prior to treatment. Patients with spinal cord compression unless considered to
have received definitive treatment for this and evidence of clinically stable disease
for 35 days.
6. Patients with symptomatic visceral disease are not eligible.
7. Other malignancy within the last 5 years except: adequately treated non-melanoma skin
cancer, curatively treated in situ cancer of the cervix, ductal carcinoma in situ
(DCIS), Stage 1, grade 1 endometrial carcinoma, or other solid tumors including
lymphomas (without bone marrow involvement) curatively treated with no evidence of
disease for =5 years.
8. Patients with myelodysplastic syndrome/acute myeloid leukemia or with features
suggestive of MDS/AML
9. Have had a major surgery (defined as requiring general anesthesia) or significant
traumatic injury within 2 weeks of start of study drug, patients who have not
recovered from the side effects of any major surgery or patients that may require
major surgery during the course of the study.
10. Resting ECG with QTc > 470 msec on 2 or more time points within a 24-hour period or
family history of long QT syndrome.
11. Patients receiving any systemic chemotherapy or radiotherapy (except for palliative
reasons) within 3 weeks prior to study treatment
12. Concomitant use of known strong CYP3A inhibitors or moderate CYP3A inhibitors. The
required washout period prior to starting olaparib is 2 weeks.
13. Concomitant use of known strong or moderate CYP3A inducers. The required washout
period prior to starting olaparib is 5 weeks for enzalutamide or phenobarbital and 3
weeks for other agents.
14. Patients considered a poor 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 3
months) myocardial infarction, uncontrolled major seizure disorder, unstable spinal
cord compression, superior vena cava syndrome, extensive interstitial bilateral lung
disease on High Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) scan or any psychiatric disorder
that prohibits obtaining informed consent.
15. Immunocompromised patients, e.g., patients who are known to be serologically positive
for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
16. Patients with known active hepatitis (i.e. Hepatitis B or C).
17. Previous allogenic bone marrow transplant or double umbilical cord blood
transplantation (dUCBT).
18. Whole blood transfusions in the last 120 days prior to entry to the study (packed red
blood cells and platelet transfusions are acceptable, for timing refer to inclusion
criteria no.9).
