primary Outcomes
  1. description
    The time from randomisation until the date of objective radiological disease progression (determined by RECIST 1.1 (soft tissue) and Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 (PCWG-3) (bone)) or death (by any cause in the absence of progression) regardless of whether the patient withdrew from randomised therapy or received another anti-cancer therapy prior to progression. Progression is defined using (i) Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1) for soft tissue, as a \>=20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions and an absolute increase of \>=5mm taking as reference the smallest sum of diameters since treatment started including the baseline sum of diameters; (ii) Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 (PGWG-3) for bone as \>= 2 new bone lesions on the 1st week 8 scan compared to baseline. The confirmatory scan, \>=6 weeks later, must show \>=2 more new bone lesions (for a total of \>=4 new bone lesions since baseline).
    measure
    Radiological Progression Free Survival (rPFS) by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) - Cohort A Only
    time Frame
    Tumor assessments every 8 weeks from randomisation until radiographic progression assessed by BICR (median duration of treatment of 7 and 4 months for Olaparib and Investigators Choice of NHA respectively).
secondary Outcomes
  1. description
    ORR is the percentage of patients with at least one visit response of Complete response (CR) or Partial response (PR), in their soft tissue disease assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1), in the absence of progression on bone scan assessed by Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 (PCWG3)). Per RECIST v1.1, CR=Disappearance of all target lesions; PR = \>=30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions; For each treatment group, ORR is the number of patients with a CR and PR.
    measure
    Confirmed Objective Response Rate (ORR) by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) - Cohort A Only

    measure
    Radiological Progression Free Survival (rPFS) by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) - Cohort A+B

    measure
    Time to Pain Progression - Cohort A Only
    time Frame

Full study description
brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of olaparib versus enzalutamide or abiraterone acetate in subjects with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who have failed prior treatment with a new hormonal agent and have homologous recombination repair gene mutations.
detailed Description
This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, open-label, phase 3 trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of olaparib versus enzalutamide or abiraterone in subjects with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who have failed prior treatment with a new hormonal agent (NHA) and have a qualifying tumor mutation in one of 15 genes involved in the homologous recombination repair (HRR) pathway. Subjects will be divided into two cohorts based on HRR gene mutation status. Approximately 340 subjects will be randomized 2:1 (olaparib : investigator choice of enzalutamide or abiraterone acetate) into the trial.
