Ovarian Cancer [2017]
How will new combination regimens impact the ovarian cancer treatment landscape?
Competition is intensifying in the PARP inhibitor space due to the recent approval of Clovis’ Rubraca and Tesaro/Merck & Co.’s Zejula. How will AstraZeneca’s Lynparza fare in the rapidly growing PARP inhibitor market and will the newer therapies in this class prove their worth? Furthermore, a multitude of novel combinations are being evaluated in Phase II and III trials and KOLs debate the prospects for multiple combinations such as AstraZeneca’s cediranib and Lynparza (Phase II/III COCOS trial) and Roche’s Tecentriq in combination with Avastin and platinum-based chemotherapy (Phase III ATALANTE trial). In addition, as immunotherapies move into late-stage development, KOLs discuss their potential to reform treatment options.
In this 6 US and six EU KOLs offer their candid insights on 4 marketed therapies and nine pipeline drugs.
Take a tour of the report now:
“Some of these drugs will compete in the same indications. It's possible that we will see the PARP inhibitors in first line and immunotherapy in second line. Cost and economy will also play an important part.” EU Key Opinion Leader
“There's a compelling rationale to use an anti-VEGF drug and an immune modulator like a PD-L1 inhibitor. It's definitely logical. The thing that doesn't make sense to me is that they're not continuing Avastin as part of the maintenance strategy [in the ATALANTE trial].” US Key Opinion Leader
“PRIMA's a smart study because it only includes patients with residual disease. The highest curability is in patients that have complete resection and are BRCA or HRD positive, and the SOLO-1 trial includes a lot of those patients, whereas PRIMA doesn’t include the best prognosis patients because they may never recur.” US Key Opinion Leader
