Description
664 patients with non-bulky FIGO Stage II-IV ovarian cancer were evaluated for PFS when treated with Pazopanib versus placebo. Of the 664 patients, 10% (n=68) were BRCA1+, 4% were BRCA 2+ (n=29) and 85% (n=567) were BCRA1/2 negative. Longer progression free survival was observed in BRCA1/2 positive carriers versus BRCA1/2 negative carriers in both the Pazopanib arm and the placebo arm, however, due to small sample size, the PFS increase in the Pazopanib arm was not statistically significant.
