Impact of PARP inhibitors on progression-free survival in platinum-sensitive recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer: a retrospective analysis.

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
objectivePoly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors such as olaparib and niraparib have shown promise in extending progression-free survival (PFS) in patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent (PSR) epithelial ovarian cancer. In this retrospective study, we aimed to present our own data on the effect of PARP inhibitors on PFS in recurrent epithelial ovarian cancer.
methods82 patients diagnosed with PSR epithelial ovarian, tubal, or primary peritoneal cancer between May 2017 and September 2023 were initially enrolled from our hospital. However, 16 patients had prior exposure to PARP inhibitors during primary treatment, and 11 were lost to follow-up. Consequently, the study focused on 55 eligible patients. PFS was compared between patients receiving PARP inhibitor maintenance therapy and those who did not.
resultsAmong the 55 patients with PSR epithelial ovarian cancer, 18 received olaparib as maintenance therapy, 19 received niraparib, and 18 opted for observation. PARP inhibitor therapy significantly extended PFS (mean 24.0 months) compared to observation (mean 9.0 months, p = 0.0005), regardless of BRCA mutation status (HR = 0.20, 95% CI: 0.08-0.50). Subgroup analysis showed no statistical difference between olaparib and niraparib. Additionally, there was no PFS difference based on BRCA mutation status within both PARP inhibitor groups.
conclusionOur retrospective study demonstrates that PARP inhibitor maintenance therapy, including olaparib and niraparib, significantly prolongs PFS in patients with PSR epithelial ovarian, tubal, or primary peritoneal cancer, These findings support the broad utilization of PARP inhibitors as a standard maintenance therapy for PSR epithelial ovarian cancer irrespective of BRCA mutation status.
