Brief summary

This study is a phase III, multi-centre study of olaparib in combination with paclitaxel, compared with placebo in combination with paclitaxel in patients with advanced gastric cancer who have progressed following first-line therapy. Patients will be from China, Japan , Korea and Taiwan.

Detailed description

A randomized, double-blinded, multicentre phase III study to access the efficacy and safety of olaparib in combination with paclitaxel, compared with placebo in combination with paclitaxel in Asian patients with advanced gastric cancer (including gastro-oesophageal junction) who have progressed following first line therapy.

Interventions

DRUGOlaparib

Tablets-at a dose of 100mg orally twice daily, throughout each cycle (28 days); Once paclitaxel dosing is stopped, the planned monotherapy olaparib dose will be 300mg twice daily.

DRUGPaclitaxel

IV infusion over 1 hour at 80 mg/m2 weekly on days 1, 8 and 15 of a 28 days schedule.

DRUGPlacebo

Tablets-at a dose of 100mg orally twice daily, throughout each cycle (28 days); Once paclitaxel dosing is stopped, the planned monotherapy placebo dose will be 300mg twice daily.
