Measured: Up to 4 years
Secondary outcomes (10)
Duration of Response (DOR) - Independent Central Review (ICR)
To evaluate duration of response (DOR) as assessed by ICR using RECIST v1.1

Measured: 2 years 3 months
Duration of Response (DOR) - Investigator
To evaluate DOR as assessed by Investigator using RECIST v1.1 defined as from first documentation of objective tumor response (CR or PR) to first documentation of objective tumor progression or death due to any cause.
Measured: 2 years 3 months
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) - Investigator
To evaluate PFS as assessed by Investigator using RECIST v1.1 determined from the first dose to the date of first radiographic progression or death from any cause in the absence of progression, whichever occurred first, or were censored.
Measured: 2 years 3 months
Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR) - Investigator and ICR
To evaluate Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR), defined as the percentage of patients who had achieved Complete Response (CR), Partial Response (PR), or Stable Disease (SD) for 8 weeks or more, as assessed by Investigator only (ICR not performed due to early study termination).
Measured: 2 years 3 months
ORR With Untreated Measurable CNS Lesions - Investigator
To evaluate intracranial ORR in participants with untreated measurable CNS lesions as assessed by Investigator using RECIST v1.1
Measured: Up to 4 years

Measured: 2 years 3 months
Overall Survival (OS)
To evaluate overall survival (OS) defined as the time from the date of first dose of study drug to the date of death by any cause. Patients who were alive were censored at the date of last contact.
Measured: 6 months and 12 months

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing Niraparib in people with Solid Tumor and Breast Tumor, run by Tempus AI at 80 sites in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Oct 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 80 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 29 Oct 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Overall Response Rate (ORR) - Independent Central Review (ICR) (time frame: Up to 4 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Oct 2025.
