The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacy and safety of 2 doses of drug AZD2281 against liposomal doxorubicin to see which is effective and well tolerated in treating patients with measurable BRCA1- or BRCA2-positive advanced ovarian cancer and who have failed previous platinum therapy.

primary Outcomes
  1. description
    PFS was defined as the time to progression from the date of randomisation until the date of radiological assessment of progression per RECIST criteria or death (by any cause in the absence of progression)
    measure
    Progression Free Survival (PFS)
    time Frame
    Tumour assessment was to be assessed at screening, every 8 weeks during the study and at the withdrawal visit, up to 56 weeks. (Data cut-off for primary analysis of PFS: 15 September 2009)
secondary Outcomes
  1. description
    ORR was defined according to RECIST. Complete response (CR) or partial response - (PR)- 30% decrease Patients with a best RECIST response of CR or PR had to have a confirmed response at least 28 days later.
    measure
    Objective Response Rate (ORR)
    time Frame
    At the time that 57 PFS events had occurred (Data cut-off for primary analysis of PFS: 15 September 2009)
  2. description
    The number of patients with confirmed CR (disappearance of all target lesions) or PR (30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions ) or SD ( small changes ) \>4 months, divided by the number of randomised patients
    measure
    Disease Control Rate
    time Frame
    At the time that 57 PFS events had occurred (Data cut-off for primary analysis of PFS: 15 September 2009)
  3. description
    The duration of response was defined as time (months) from initial assessment of PR/CR until earliest date of objective progression or death. (Values may be underestimated as some patients had not progressed at final analysis so true duration is likely to be greater than that in database.)
    measure
    Overall Duration of Response
    time Frame
    At the time that 57 PFS events had occurred (Data cut-off for primary analysis of PFS: 15 September 2009)
  4. description
    The percentage change (reduction) from baseline in the sum of the lengths of the longest diameter (LD) of the RECIST target lesions were objectively documented, regardless of whether the patient was still taking study medication
    measure
    Best Percentage Change in Tumour Size
    time Frame
    At the time that 57 PFS events had occurred (Data cut-off for primary analysis of PFS: 15 September 2009)
  5. description
    Best percentage change in cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) levels
    measure
    Best Percentage Change From Baseline in CA-125 Levels
    time Frame
    At the time that 57 PFS events had occurred (Data cut-off for primary analysis of PFS: 15 September 2009)
  6. description
    The percentage of patients reporting a RECIST confirmed response and/or a CA-125 response (in the absence of progression). A CA-125 response was defined as a confirmed greater or equal to 50% reduction in CA-125.
    measure
    Confirmed RECIST Response and/or CA-125 Response
    time Frame
    At the time that 57 PFS events had occurred (Data cut-off for primary analysis of PFS: 15 September 2009)
  7. description
    OS was defined as time from randomisation to date of death from any cause. Patients who had not died at time of analysis were censored at last date they were known to be alive. Median OS was not calculable for olaparib groups due to an insufficient number of deaths so the percentage of participants who died are shown along with 95% confidence intervals
    measure
    Overall Survival (OS)
    time Frame
    At the time of the cut-off for the final analysis of overall survival (30 April 2010)
  8. description
    Best HRQoL response using the TOI endpoint. Improvement was defined as a change from baseline of greater than or equal to +7. The TOI score ranges from 0-100.
    measure
    Best Quality of Life (QoL) Response for Trial Outcome Index (TOI)
    time Frame
    At the time that 57 PFS events had occurred (Data cut-off for primary analysis of PFS: 15 September 2009)
  9. description
    Best HRQoL response using the total FACT-O endpoint. Improvement was defined as a change from baseline of greater than or equal to +9.
    measure
    Best QoL Response for Total Functional Analysis of Cancer Therapy - Ovarian (FACT-O)
    time Frame
    At the time that 57 PFS events had occurred (Data cut-off for primary analysis of PFS: 15 September 2009)
  10. description
    Best HRQoL response using the FOSI endpoint. Improvement was defined as a change from baseline of greater than or equal to +3.
    measure
    Best QoL Response for FACT-O Symptom Index (FOSI)
    time Frame
    At the time that 57 PFS events had occurred (Data cut-off for primary analysis of PFS: 15 September 2009)
