Summary

Background: The drug olaparib may stop cancer cells from fixing damage to their deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). It has been approved to treat certain cancers in people that were born with a mutation in the breast cancer (BRCA) gene. It has not been approved for treating mesothelioma. But some people with mesothelioma have mutations in a gene, BRCA1 Associated Protein 1 (BAP1) related to BRCA. Researchers want to see if olaparib can work in patients with mutations in this gene. They also want to see if works on mutations in other genes or patients without any mutations. They want to see if olaparib causes mesothelioma tumors to shrink. Objective: To study the effect of olaparib on mesothelioma. Eligibility: People ages 18 and older with malignant mesothelioma that has already been treated Design: Participants will be screened with Sample of tumor tissue or fluid Medical history Physical exam Blood, heart, and urine tests Scans and x-rays Participants will give blood and tissue samples. These will be genetically tested. The study will be done in 21-day cycles. Participants will take tables of the study drug 2 times each day. They will get information on what food and drugs to avoid during the study. They will get information about birth control. They will keep a diary of doses and symptoms. Participants will have blood and urine tests and scans every few weeks. Participants will be told any important genetic testing results. Participants will stay in the study until their disease gets worse or the participant or their doctor chooses to stop it. About 30 days after stopping the study drug, participants will have a follow-up visit. They will have a medical history, physical exam, blood tests, and scans. Some participants will continue to have scans every 6 weeks. ...

Eligibility Criteria

  • INCLUSION CRITERIA:
  • Patients must have histologically or cytologically malignant mesothelioma confirmed by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Laboratory of Pathology. Patients with pleural, peritoneal, pericardial or tunica vaginalis mesothelioma are eligible.
  • Archival tumor samples must be available and sufficient for diagnostic and genetic testing; if archival sample insufficient for testing, subject must have lesions amenable to biopsy and be willing to undergo biopsy.
  • Patients must have measurable disease.
  • Patients must have progressive disease at study entry
  • Patients must have received prior platinum and pemetrexed based therapies. Response to platinum is not an eligibility criterion for enrollment.
  • Age greater than or equal to 18 years. Because no dosing or adverse event data are currently available on the use of olaparib in patients 470 msec on 2 or more time points within a 24-hour period or family history of long Q wave, T wave (QT) syndrome
  • Patients that have had major surgery within 2 weeks of starting study treatment and patients must have recovered from any effects of any major surgery.
  • Patients unable to swallow orally administered medication and patients with gastrointestinal disorders likely to interfere with absorption of the study medication.
  • Patients considered a poor medical risk due to a serious, uncontrolled medical disorder, non-malignant systemic disease or active, uncontrolled infection. Examples include, but are not limited to, uncontrolled ventricular arrhythmia, recent (within 3 months) myocardial infarction, uncontrolled major seizure disorder, unstable spinal cord compression, superior vena cava syndrome, extensive interstitial bilateral lung disease on High Resolution Computed Tomography (HRCT) scan or any psychiatric disorder that prohibits obtaining informed consent.
  • Pregnant women are excluded from this study because olaparib has the potential for teratogenic or abortifacient effects. Women must either be post-menopausal or must have a negative pregnancy test (urine or serum) less than or equal to 28 days prior to enrollment and confirmed on day 1 of cycle 1 of study therapy. Postmenopausal is defined as:

Amenorrheic for 1 year or more following cessation of exogenous hormonaltreatments

Luteinizing hormone (LH) and Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) levels in the post-menopausal range for women under 50 years of age

radiation-induced oophorectomy with last menses >1 year ago

chemotherapy-induced menopause with >1-year interval since last menses

surgical sterilisation (bilateral oophorectomy or hysterectomy)

  • Because there is an unknown but potential risk for adverse events in nursing infants secondary to treatment of the mother with olaparib, breastfeeding should be discontinued if the mother is treated with olaparib.
  • Immunocompromised patients are excluded.
  • Patients who are known to be serologically positive for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). This includes HIV patients on antiretroviral therapy due to the potential for pharmacokinetic interactions with olaparib.
  • Patients with known active hepatitis (i.e. Hepatitis B or C) due to risk of transmitting the infection through blood or other body fluids
  • Previous allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant, allogeneic bone marrow transplant or double umbilical cord blood transplant (duCBT)
