Study of Olaparib and Durvalumab in IDH-Mutated Solid Tumors
Sponsor: University Health Network, Toronto
Summary
This is a phase 2 study of the combination of drugs olaparib and durvalumab for the treatment of isocitrate dehydrogenase or (IDH) mutated solid tumors. The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of the drug combination via overall response rate and overall disease control rate. It is believed that giving olaparib and durvalumab together would be more useful when given to patients with IDH-mutated solid tumors than giving each drug alone.
Official title: A Phase II Study of Olaparib and Durvalumab (MEDI 4736) in Patients With IDH-Mutated Solid Tumors

Interventions
Olaparib
Olaparib is a drug that blocks a protein called poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). PARP is important in the growth and spread of cancer cells. Because of this, blocking PARP from working is expected to stop the growth of or shrink cancer cells.
Durvalumab
Durvalumab is a drug that works by stopping a protein called Programmed Cell Death Ligand 1 (PD-L1) from working. PD-L1 is a protein that is thought to prevent the immune system (the body's defense against diseases) from killing cancer cells. Stopping PD-L1 from working is expected to allow the immune system to once again prevent or slow down cancer growth.
