Olaparib in an ovarian cancer patient with end-stage renal disease and hemodialysis.
Article in Cancer chemotherapy and pharmacology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeFor patients with severe renal impairment (CrCl ≤ 30 ml/min) or end-stage renal disease (ESRD), olaparib intake is not recommended as the pharmacokinetics and safety of olaparib have not been evaluated in this patient group. Therefore, this valuable patient group is generally excluded from poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor (PARPi) therapy. Here we report the pharmacokinetics (PK), efficacy, safety and tolerability of olaparib capsules 200 mg BID in a patient with recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) and ESRD requiring hemodialysis.
methodsBlood and dialysate samples of the patient were collected on a dialysis and non-dialysis day. Olaparib total plasma concentrations were determined through high-performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometric detection. Actual scheduled sample times were used in the PK analysis to determine multiple dose PK parameters at steady state.
resultsMaximum concentration was achieved 1.5 h after drug administration on non- dialysis and after 1 h on dialysis day. The steady-state trough concentration and the maximal plasma concentration were similar on dialysis and non- dialysis day. On non-dialysis day, the AUC
conclusionA total dose of olaparib 200 mg BID capsule formulation was well tolerated by our patient with ESRD and hemodialysis. Moreover, this maintenance therapy led to 16 months of progression free survival. Further trials on PARPi therapy in patients with hemodialysis are warranted.
