SYN818 plus olaparib for advanced or metastatic BRCA‑mutant or HRD solid tumors

Official title: A Phase Ib Study Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Preliminary Antitumor Activity of SYN818 With Olaparib in Patients With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors

Run by Hangzhou SynRx Therapeutics Biomedical Technology Co., Ltd · NCT07156253 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study tests whether combining SYN818 with olaparib is safe and helps control advanced or metastatic solid tumors in adults whose cancers have BRCA mutations or homologous recombination repair defects.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults (≥18) with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors—particularly BRCA‑mutant or HRR‑deficient cancers, including epithelial ovarian or HER2‑negative breast cancer—with measurable disease, ECOG 0–1, adequate organ function, and appropriate prior treatment history are the ideal candidates.

Probably not a fit

Patients without BRCA mutations or HRR deficiency, those with poor organ function or ECOG >1, pregnant individuals, or patients who still have effective standard treatments available are less likely to benefit from this combination.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This Phase Ib, open‑label, multicenter trial gives SYN818 together with oral olaparib to adults with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors that harbor BRCA mutations or homologous recombination repair (HRR) defects. It enrolls patients in defined cohorts and collects safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and preliminary anti‑tumor activity data, with responses assessed by RECIST v1.1. Eligible participants include adults with measurable disease and ECOG 0–1 who have adequate organ and bone marrow function; some cohorts focus specifically on epithelial ovarian cancer or HER2‑negative breast cancer. Primary objectives are early safety and tolerability while secondary objectives include PK/PD profiling and initial signals of clinical benefit.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the combination could provide a new treatment option that improves tumor control for patients with BRCA‑mutant or HRR‑deficient advanced solid tumors.

How similar studies have gone: Olaparib and other PARP inhibitors have established benefit in BRCA‑mutant ovarian and breast cancer, and early combination studies with novel agents have shown encouraging but not yet definitive results.

* Male or female aged ≥18 years;
* Life expectancy ≥12 weeks;
* Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Score 0 or 1;
* Participant has a histologically confirmed diagnosis of advanced or metastatic solid tumor and has exhausted all standard-of-care treatment options, with documented BRCA mutations and/or homologous recombination repair deficiency (Part 1).
* Participant has histologically or cytologically confirmed locally advanced or metastatic epithelial ovarian cancer or HER2-negative breast cancer, with documented BRCA mutations and/or homologous recombination repair deficiency (Part 2).
