Patients with ovarian cancer with defective DNA repair mechanisms derive substantial benefit from PARP inhibitor (PARPi) maintenance therapy. Both niraparib and olaparib are effective inhibitors of PARP, which exploit already defective DNA repair mechanisms (e.g., via BRCA mutations), particularly those with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD). These two PARPis have notably different toxicity profiles, with niraparib showing many more severe side effects. In this Ovarian Cancer Canada funded study, we will implement perform HRD testing for ovarian cancer patients in Saskatchewan with response to platinum-based chemotherapy. This information will provide personalized and precision estimates about the amount of benefit that can be expected from taking a PARPi. We will evaluate both treatment outcomes and quality of life in a real-world study setting, to inform future decision-making
