Study on the Relative Dose Intensity of PARP Inhibitors in Real-life on a Population of Patients Over 70 Years With Advanced Ovarian Cancer (PARIB-OLD-PRO²)

February 20, 2026 updated by: Hospices Civils de Lyon

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors are anti-cancer treatments that induce preferential tumor cell death. Their efficacy has been demonstrated in many tumor models, primarily in advanced ovarian cancer. PARP inhibitors also exhibit a particular toxicity, damaging the hematopoietic tissue. With age, pharmacokinetic changes or a reduction in medullary cavity may increase these toxicities and may lead to dose reductions/postponements or premature discontinuation of PARP inhibitors, which may impact the efficacy of treatment. Close biological monitoring must be carried out to limit these toxicities, in most cases anemia, thrombocytopenia and neutropenia. Until now, the geriatric factors impacting the tolerance and uptake of PARP inhibitors in the elderly patient population with advanced ovarian cancer are not clearly established. It is therefore necessary to have prospective real-life data in order to support patients in a decision-making process on whether or not to continue such treatments.

PARIB-OLD-PRO² will evaluate the association between various clinical, biological, and geriatric factors and the relative dose intensity (RDI) of therapy by PARP inhibitors. This is a prospective, multicenter longitudinal and non-interventional study and will involve a population of 50 patients, aged 70 years and elder, with advanced ovarian cancer who are scheduled to start a therapy with PARP inhibitors for the first time. The aim of the study is to better understand the effects of PARP inhibitors on a elderly population, knowledge of the genetic and clinical determinants of PARP inhibitors toxicity in this specific population and an optimal management of this therapy related adverse events in order to maintain an RDI.

Intervention / Treatment
Patients with advanced ovarian cancer
Patients of 70 years and elder with an advanced ovarian cancer who are scheduled to start a maintenance therapy with PARP inhibitors for the first time. The PARP inhibitors are administrated according to the marketing authorization and will be Olaparib (which may by administrated in combination with Bevacizumab) and Niraparib. There is no specific medical visit for this study, patient are followed in a routine care. Some medical data about the disease follow-up will be collected at inclusion and at each visit, every 3 months over a 12-months period. Furthermore, two quality of life surveys (OV28 and ELD14) and one geriatric assessment will be performed at each visit every 3 months and one 8ml-blood sample will be done at inclusion, and after 6 and 12 months of PARP inhibitors treatment.
2 quality of life surveys (OV28 and ELD14) will be completed by patients every 3 months during a 12-month period
A geriatric assessment (G-CODE) will be performed by the research staff every 3 months during a 12-month period
A supplementary volume of blood will be collected from a routine blood sample (8 mL) at 3 different time points : one at inclusion, one 6 and 12 months after the beginning of PARP inhibitors treatment. Genetic lab test will be performed to assess whether there is a specific genetic signature for PARP inhibitors toxicity.
