Trial Summary

What is the purpose of this trial?

This phase II trial studies cediranib maleate in combination with olaparib in treating patients with solid tumors that have spread to other parts of the body (advanced/metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable), including breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, small cell lung cancer, and pancreatic cancer. Cediranib maleate and olaparib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Cediranib maleate may also block the flow of oxygen to the tumor, and may help make the tumor more sensitive to olaparib.

Treatment Details

Interventions

  • Cediranib Maleate (Angiogenesis Inhibitor)
  • Olaparib (PARP Inhibitor)
Trial OverviewThe study tests a combination of two drugs: Cediranib Maleate and Olaparib in patients with various advanced solid tumors. The goal is to see if these drugs can stop tumor growth by inhibiting specific enzymes needed for cell proliferation and cutting off oxygen supply to the tumor cells.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Treatment (cediranib maleate, olaparib)Experimental Treatment5 Interventions
Patients receive cediranib maleate PO QD on day 1. Patients undergoing FMISO scan also receive olaparib PO BID beginning the day after the second FMISO scan and the rest of the patients receive olaparib PO BID beginning day 4 of cycle 1. Cycles repeat every 28 days (35 days for cycle 1) in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
