  • Overview

    The establishment of poly (adenosine diphosphate [ADP]-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors as an effective therapeutic strategy in ovarian cancer has been made possible through a deepened understanding of the impact of mutations in DNA damage response pathways on tumorigenesis. The success of this approach has led to the regulatory approval of PARP inhibitors for the treatment of patients with advanced ovarian cancer. PARP inhibitors as first-line maintenance therapy demonstrate a substantial and clinically meaningful benefit in progression-free survival among patients with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer, including BRCA-mutated and HRD-positive disease. In some cases, regulatory approvals of PARP inhibitors have brought approvals for companion diagnostics or complementary diagnostic tests. Together, these developments have yielded a wealth of new options for managing ovarian cancer but have also complicated the effectiveness of the multidisciplinary care team, which is essential for the highest standard of cancer care delivery, linking emerging treatments and guidelines with patient education and empowerment. Another vital component of ovarian cancer care is the use of shared decision-making and patient-reported outcomes to increase patient satisfaction, therapy adherence, and quality of life. 

    In this educational activity, expert faculty will review potential treatment-related complications that may occur with PARP inhibitor-based therapy. These concepts are coupled with education about shared decision-making strategies to achieve increased patient satisfaction, better adherence to treatment plans, and greater treatment engagement, as well as to enhance quality decision-making. Case studies will highlight the integration and management of first-line maintenance treatment with PARP inhibitors in advanced ovarian cancer and the application of shared decision-making to co-create treatment plans with patients, caregivers, and their healthcare teams, that are reflective of patient values, preferences, and goals for therapy.
