Genetic Implications for Cancer Management: The Changing Landscape of Poly (ADP-ribose) Polymerase Inhibitor Indications in the Treatment of Ovarian Cancer.

Between December 2014 and May 2020, the United States Food and Drug Administration approved 9 indications for poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor use in ovarian cancer. Between June 2022 and September 2022, all 3 indications for PARP inhibitor treatment of recurrent ovarian cancer were withdrawn. Between November 2022 and September 2023, all 3 indications for PARP inhibitor maintenance therapy in recurrent ovarian cancer were restricted. The 3 indications for PARP inhibitor maintenance therapy in newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer are unchanged. This article reviews the timelines and data leading to regulatory changes for PARP inhibitor use in ovarian cancer in the United States.
