Symptoms of ovarian cancer are often vague early on and many women are not diagnosed until after the cancer has grown and spread to other parts of the body. Less than half of women with ovarian This briefing is based on cancer survive five years from diagnosis with many not responding to information current treatments. available at the time of research and a Ovarian, fallopian tube, and primary peritoneal cancer all begin in the limited literature same part of the ovary or fallopian tube. Rucaparib is a new drug for search. It is not the treatment of ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. It intended to be a is taken as a tablet, twice daily with water. definitive statement on the safety, If rucaparib is licensed for use in the UK, it could be a new treatment efficacy or option for patients with ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal effectiveness of the cancer.

Email: [email protected] Web: www.hsric.nihr.ac.uk Horizon Scanning Research & Intelligence Centre TARGET GROUP Ovarian, fallopian tube and peritoneal cancer: advanced; deleterious or suspected deleterious BRCA-mutated tumour (inclusive of both germline BRCA and somatic BRCA mutations) – treated with three or more prior lines of chemotherapy. TECHNOLOGY DESCRIPTION Rucaparib (PF-1367338, AG-014699 PARP) is an oral, small molecule poly ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitor that has potent activity against PARP-1, PARP-2, PARP-3 and tankyrases. Rucaparib is intended for the treatment of ovarian cancer associated with homologous recombination DNA repair deficiency. In a phase II clinical trial, rucaparib is administered orally at 600mg twice daily on a continuous basis1. Rucaparib does not currently have Marketing Authorisation in the EU for any indication. Rucaparib is currently in phase II trials for breast and pancreatic cancer. INNOVATION and/or ADVANTAGES If licensed, rucaparib will provide an additional oral treatment option for patients with BRCA- mutated ovarian cancer. DEVELOPER Clovis Oncology. AVAILABILITY, LAUNCH OR MARKETING In phase II clinical trials. PATIENT GROUP BACKGROUND Ovarian, fallopian and primary peritoneal cancers arise from the epithelial tissues of the ovary or fallopian tube. Almost 90% of adult ovarian tumours are epithelial cancers. The serous sub-type of ovarian epithelial carcinoma accounts for approximately 60-80% of ovarian cancer cases and has the most aggressive histology2. Symptoms can be vague and non-specific initially, but may include: abdominal distension; feeling full and/or loss of appetite; pelvic or abdominal pain; irregular periods or vaginal bleeding; and increased urinary urgency and/or frequency3,4. For patients with advanced (stage III or IV) disease, initial treatment results are generally favourable, but the clinical course commonly involves relapse, which is ultimately fatal5. Several risk factors have been associated with the development of ovarian cancer, such as obesity, infertility, poor reproductive history, and duration of reproductive career6. Genetic predisposition is also a risk factor for ovarian cancer; in particular, women who carry BRCA1 2 Horizon Scanning Research & Intelligence Centre mutations have an estimated lifetime risk of between 26% and 54% of developing ovarian cancer, and women who carry BRCA2 mutations have an estimated lifetime risk of between 10% and 23%7. BRCA-associated ovarian carcinomas are usually high-grade, poorly differentiated, serous adenocarcinomas7.

CLINICAL NEED and BURDEN OF DISEASE Ovarian cancer is the fifth most common cancer in women in the UK, and has an overall 5- year survival rate of 46%8. Approximately 10% of ovarian cancers occur in women with mutations in the genes BRCA 1 or 29. Approximately 70% of women present with advanced disease and undergo a combination of debulking surgery and six cycles of platinum-based chemotherapy6,10,11,12. Approximately 75% of tumours are sensitive to first line platinum- based chemotherapy, however this falls to 50% on recurrence if the duration of the platinum- free interval is greater than 12 months5. Although most patients respond to initial treatment, 70-80% with advanced stage ovarian cancer subsequently develop recurrent disease5,6,13. Most patients receive platinum-based therapy for a second or third time before developing resistance5. The cure rate for stage III disease is approximately 30% while treatments for stage IV are usually palliative6. The median time to progression after primary treatment (surgery and chemotherapy) is 15-18 months5. Patients who progress within six months of primary treatment typically experience a short overall survival, usually less than 12 months5. The annual incidence of ovarian cancer in England is around 5,500. It is estimated that around 82% of these women have stage IIIB to IV ovarian cancer; chemotherapy will be unsuitable for about 10% of these patients14. Between 2009 and 2011, in the UK an average 54% of cases were diagnosed in women aged 65 years and over, and three-quarters were diagnosed in those aged 55 years and over15. In 2014-15, there were 39,088 admissions for ovarian cancer and other unspecified female genital organ cancers (ICD-10 C56-C57) resulting in 62,616 bed days and 41,678 finished consultant episodes in England16. There were 3,695 deaths due to ovarian cancer (ICD-10 C56-C57) registered in England and Wales in 201417. 3 Horizon Scanning Research & Intelligence Centre PATIENT PATHWAY RELEVANT GUIDANCE NICE Guidance • NICE technology appraisal in development.

Thus use of aprepitant 80 mg in the delayed phase is only for those cases where aprepitant 125 mg is used on day 1. • A probable modification in pediatric guidelines based on the recent Cochrane meta-analysis is indicated.

However, inhibitors of this pathway such as Rad001 have not shown therapeutic efficacy as a single agent for this cancer. Arsenic trioxide (ATO) induces an autophagic pathway in ovarian carcinoma cells. We found that ATO can synergize with Rad001 to induce cytotoxicity of ovarian cancer cells.

  • Topotecan, Pegylated Liposomal Doxorubicin Hydrochloride, Paclitaxel, Trabectedin and Gemcitabine for Treating Recurrent Ovarian Cancer
    Topotecan, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride, paclitaxel, trabectedin and gemcitabine for treating recurrent ovarian cancer Information for the public Published: TBC nice.org.uk What has NICE said? For recurrent ovarian cancer, the following possible treatments are recommended: paclitaxel (also known as Taxol) on its own or with platinum pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride (PLDH, also known as Caelyx) on its own or with platinum. For ovarian cancer that has recurred for the first time and is platinum-sensitive, Nice does not recommend gemcitabine (Gemzar) with carboplatin (Paraplatin), trabectedin (Yondelis) with PLDH, or topotecan (Hycamtin or Potactasol). Topotecan is also not recommended for treating recurrent ovarian cancer that is platinum-resistant or platinum-refractory. What does this mean for me? If you have recurrent ovarian cancer and your doctor thinks that paclitaxel on its own or with platinum, or pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride (PLDH) on its own, is the right treatment, you should be able to have the treatment on the NHS. These treatments should be available on the NHS within 3 months of the guidance being issued. © NICE TBC. All rights reserved. Page 1 of 3 Topotecan, pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride, paclitaxel, trabectedin and gemcitabine for treating recurrent ovarian cancer You may be able to have PLDH with platinum treatment on the NHS as long as your doctor gets your written consent to have it and the NHS within your area agrees to provide it. If you are already taking gemcitabine with carboplatin, trabectedin with PLDH, or topotecan for recurrent ovarian cancer, you should be able to continue taking it until you and your doctor decide it is the right time to stop.
