Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- Japanese female participants aged 20 years or older on the day of signing informed consent.
- Voluntary written consent must be given before performance of any study related procedure not part of standard medical care, with the understanding that consent may be withdrawn by the participant at any time without prejudice to future medical care.
- Participants must agree to undergo tumor homologous recombination deficiency/deficient (HRD) testing, and this test result must show that participants have an HRD-positive tumor (defined by the presence of a deleterious or suspected deleterious breast cancer gene (BRCA) mutation or be positive for genomic instability) by the central laboratory selected by the sponsor.
Note 1: The study HRD test result must be received prior to enrollment. The tumor sample may be submitted for HRD testing prior to the screening period (ie, within 40 days before Cycle 1 Day 1) if the consent has been obtained and it appears the participant is likely to meet other eligibility requirements.
Note 2: If historic blood germline BRCA mutation (gBRCAmut) is detected by a prior gBRCAmut testing, then tumor HRD sample test results are not required prior to enrollment; however, HRD testing still needs to be performed.
- Participants must have histologically diagnosed, relapsed, high-grade (Grade 2 or 3) serous epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer with recurrent disease and must have been previously treated with chemotherapy and have not experienced disease progression at least 6 months to the last chemotherapy containing platinum-based anticancer agents.
- Participants must have completed 3 or 4 previous chemotherapy regimens. Participants must have completed their last chemotherapy regimen >4 weeks prior to treatment initiation.
- Participants must have at least one measurable disease according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) (v.1.1).
- Participants must have performance status of ≤1 on the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status Scale.
- Participants must have adequate organ function as indicated by the following laboratory values:
- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1,500/μL.
- Platelet count ≥150,000/μL.
- Hemoglobin ≥10 g/dL.
- Serum creatinine ≤1.5× institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) OR calculated creatinine clearance ≥50 mL/minute, using the Cockcroft-Gault equation.
- Total bilirubin ≤1.5×ULN OR direct bilirubin ≤1×ULN.
- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤2.5×ULN unless liver metastases were present, in which case they had to be ≤5×ULN.
- Participants must have formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tumor samples available from the primary or recurrent cancer or agree to undergo fresh biopsy prior to study treatment initiation.
- Participants must be able to take oral medications.
- Female participants of childbearing potential must be negative for pregnancy test (beta-human chorionic gonadotropin [β-hCG]) within 7 days prior to receiving the first dose of study treatment.
- Female participants who:
- Are postmenopausal for at least 1 year before the screening visit, OR
- Are surgically sterile, OR
- If they are of childbearing potential, agree to practice 1 highly effective method of contraception and 1 additional effective (barrier) method at the same time, from the time of signing the informed consent through 180 days after the last dose of study drug, OR
- Agree to practice true abstinence, when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the participant. (Periodic abstinence [eg, calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, postovulation methods], condoms only, withdrawal, spermicides only, and lactational amenorrhea are not acceptable methods of contraception. Female and male condoms should not be used together.)
Exclusion Criteria
- Participants who have had palliative radiotherapy encompassing >20% of the bone marrow within 1 week of the first
