Brief Title: A Study of Pembrolizumab and Olaparib for People With Metastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma and Homologous Recombination Deficiency or Exceptional Treatment Response to Platinum-Based Therapy
Official Title: A Phase 2 Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Antitumor Activity of Pembrolizumab and OLApaRib (POLAR) Maintenance for Patients With Metastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma and Homologous Recombination Deficiency and/or Exceptional Treatment Response to Platinum-Based Therapy
Study ID: NCT04666740
Brief Summary: The study researchers think that combining the drugs pembrolizumab and olaparib (POLAR) may help people with this disease because pembrolizumab activates the immune system to fight cancer, and olaparib destroys cancer cells by preventing them from repairing damage to the genetic information that helps them survive and grow. The study researchers are doing this study to find out whether combining these drugs may be a more effective treatment for this cancer than taking olaparib alone.
