The phase 3 POLO study demonstrated a significant progression‐free survival (PFS) benefit and preserved health‐related quality of life (HRQOL) for active maintenance treatment with olaparib vs placebo in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer and a germline BRCA mutation. Here, we present a post hoc analysis of the patient‐centered outcomes: time without significant symptoms of disease progression or toxicity (TWiST) and quality‐adjusted TWiST (Q‐TWiST).
