Factors associated with olaparib toxicity remain unknown in ovarian cancer patients. The large inter-individual variability in olaparib pharmacokinetics could contribute to the onset of early significant adverse events (SAE). We aimed to retrospectively analyze the pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationship for toxicity in ovarian cancer patients from "real life" data. The clinical endpoint was the onset of SAE (grade III/IV toxicity or dose reduction/discontinuation). Plasma olaparib concentration was assayed using liquid chromatography at any time over the dosing interval. Trough concentrations (CminPred) were estimated using a population pharmacokinetic model. The association between toxicity and clinical characteristics or CminPred was assessed by logistic regression and non-parametric statistical tests. Twenty-seven patients were included, among whom 13 (48%) experienced SAE during the first six months of treatment. Olaparib CminPred was the only covariate significantly associated with increased risk of SAE onset (odds ratio = 1.31, 95%CI = [1.10; 1.57], for each additional 1000 ng/mL). The ROC curve identified a threshold of CminPred = 2500 ng/mL for prediction of SAE onset (sensitivity/specificity 0.62 and 1.00, respectively). This study highlights a significant association between olaparib plasma exposure and SAE onset and identified the threshold of 2500 ng/mL trough concentration as potentially useful to guide dose adjustment in ovarian cancer patients.
