This is an open label Phase 2, 2-stage, 2-cohort study to evaluate rucaparib in combination with nivolumab in patients with high-grade serous or endometroid ovarian cancer.
Patients entering the following cohorts must have BRCA mutational status confirmed by a central lab:
- Cohort A1: No BRCA mutation in tumor; high level of LOH (loss of heterozygosity)
- Cohort A2: BRCA mutation in tumor
