Background: In PAOLA-1/ENGOT-ov25, the addition of olaparib to bevacizumab maintenance improved overall survival in patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer. We describe the safety profile and quality of life (QoL) of this combination in older patients in PAOLA-1.

Methods: Safety (CTCAE v4.

Article Synopsis
  • The management of advanced ovarian cancer (AOC) has improved due to molecular diagnostics that help predict how patients will respond to PARP inhibitors, particularly based on homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) status.
  • This study analyzed tumor samples from a clinical trial to investigate why HRD status isn't always a reliable indicator of sensitivity to PARP inhibitors.
  • Key findings included that some HRD-negative samples showed responses to treatment despite their status, while some HRD-positive samples did not, emphasizing the need to consider other genetic factors beyond HRD status.

This qualitative study aimed to explore needs and wishes of older adults concerning their perceived need for contact with outdoor environments at residential care facilities (RCFs) and what implications it has for theory and practice. There is increased awareness of the importance of health-promoting everyday environments for persons with special needs. Therefore, it is important to include the experiences of older adults at RCFs in research.
