PAVO Trial Summary

This trial will help researchers learn more about how effective niraparib is for treating solid tumors with a PALB2 mutation.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced solid tumors and a specific gene mutation called tPALB2. They should have tried all standard treatments or be unsuitable for them, and not have other cancers needing systemic treatment. Participants can't join if they've had certain recent treatments, previous PARP inhibitors, ovarian/prostate cancer, high blood pressure uncontrolled by medication, or specific genetic mutations.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the effectiveness and safety of Niraparib in patients with various types of advanced cancers like breast, lung, colorectal etc., who carry the PALB2 mutation. It's aimed at those whose disease has progressed despite standard therapies or who cannot tolerate such treatments.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Niraparib may cause side effects including nausea, fatigue, low blood cell counts leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems, heart palpitations, insomnia and constipation. Some people might experience changes in liver function tests.
