Study Summary

This trial studies olaparib with cediranib or AZD6738 as a treatment for patients with BRCA mutated breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women with advanced or metastatic breast cancer that has a BRCA mutation. They must have previously responded to PARP inhibitor treatment for at least 4 months, have good organ function, and controlled blood pressure. Pregnant or breastfeeding women can't join, nor those who've had certain treatments recently or have conditions affecting drug absorption.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests how well olaparib works with either cediranib or AZD6738 in treating BRCA mutated breast cancer that's spread. It aims to see if these combinations can block enzymes needed for tumor growth more effectively than current treatments.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include nausea, fatigue, low blood counts leading to increased infection risk, high blood pressure, shortness of breath, and possible allergic reactions. Some patients may experience issues related to liver function.
