Brief summary: This is a prospective, open-label, single arm, multi-centre interventional study to assess the clinical efficacy and safety of olaparib maintenance monotherapy and will be conducted in patients with platinum sensitive relapsed (PSR) high grade epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer who are in response (complete response or partial response) to platinum-based chemotherapy

Detailed description: Eligible patients will be those with high grade (serous or endometrioid) epithelial ovarian cancer, primary peritoneal and/or fallopian tube cancer.

Patients must have completed 2 previous lines of platinum-based therapy (e.g., containing carboplatin or cisplatin) and platinum sensitive relapsed before entry to the study. Eligible patients must be in complete or partial response according to RECIST 1.1 criteria following the platinum-based chemotherapy prior to enrolment in the study.

BRCA (Breast Cancer Susceptibility genes) and HRR (Homologous Recombination Repair) mutation status should be determined through blood and/or tumour testing when patients are enrolled in this study.

Patients will be assigned olaparib tablets p.o. 300 mg twice daily. They should initiate olaparib treatment within 8 weeks after their last dose of platinum-containing chemotherapy (last dose is the day of the last infusion).

Patients must have clinical and objective radiological tumour assessments according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1.1) criteria at baseline and every 12 weeks relative to date of enrolment, until objective radiological disease progression as determined by the investigator. Patients could continue to receive olaparib for as long as determined by the investigator, until objective radiological disease progression or as long as in the investigator's opinion they are benefiting from treatment in relation to other clinical assessments and they do not meet any other discontinuation criteria. Once a patient has discontinued olaparib she will be managed as per local clinical practice but will remain in the study and data will be collected on subsequent treatments, progression, overall survival and safety.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

1. Provision of informed consent prior to any study specific procedures
2. Age 18 years or over
3. Patients with platinum sensitive relapsed high grade (serous or endometrioid) epithelial ovarian cancers (including primary peritoneal and/or fallopian tube cancer)

   * Platinum sensitive disease is defined as disease progression ≥6 months after completion of their last dose of platinum based chemotherapy
4. Patients should have received at least 2 previous lines of platinum containing therapy prior to enrolment:

   * For the last chemotherapy course immediately prior to enrolment on the study, patients must be, in the opinion of the investigator, in response (partial or complete radiological response according to RECIST 1.1 criteria) and no evidence of a rising CA-125, following completion of this chemotherapy course.
5. Have availability of 10 ml blood for germline BRCA testing and tumor sample for sBRCA and HRRm testing: paraffin-embedded archived tumor tissue block (preferred) or, if a block is not possible, it would be better to have qualified 15 5-μm unstained sections.

   * Patients must have creatinine clearance estimated using the Cockcroft-Gault equation of ≥51 mL/min:

   Estimated creatinine clearance =\[(140-age \[years\]) x weight (kg)\]/\[serum creatinine (mg/dL) x 72\] (x F)a

   a: where F=0.85 for females and F=1 for males.

8. Patients must have a life expectancy ≥ 16 weeks.
9. Postmenopausal or evidence of non-childbearing status for women of childbearing potential: negative urine or serum pregnancy test within 28 days of study treatment and confirmed prior to treatment on day 1.

   Postmenopausal is defined as:

   * Luteinizing hormone (LH) and Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) levels in the post menopausal range for women under 50
   * radiation-induced oophorectomy with last menses \>1 year ago
   * chemotherapy-induced menopause with \>1 year interval since last menses
   * surgical sterilisation (bilateral oophorectomy or hysterectomy)
10. Patients is willing and able to comply with the protocol for the duration of the study including undergoing treatment and scheduled visits and examinations.
