Olubukola Ayodele: OlympiA Update – Median follow up at 6.1 years

Olubukola Ayodele, Consultant Medical Oncologist at the University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“OlympiA Update: Median follow up at 6.1 years.

  • 6 yr IDFS rate 9.4% absolute benefit for olaparib HR 0.65
  • in DDFS (7.8% absolute benefit) & OS (4.4% absolute benefit)
  • Consistent across all subgroups
  • Pregnancy data similar b/w 2 arms
  • Low rate 0.4% MDS/AML in olaparib vs 0.7% in placebo


This 6.1 year follow up results continue to impress and firmly establishes olaparib as standard of care in patients with germline BRCA mutation in early stage high risk breast cancer.”
