Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Recurrent enhancing grade II and III IDH-mutated gliomas that have failed previous therapy

All patients will receive pembrolizumab for two cycles prior to the addition of olaparib and temozolomide. Combination olaparib and temozolomide will be added in cycle 3. Combination therapy will continue through cycle 11 (cycles 3-11 = 27 weeks or approximately 6 months). Patients will then continue on pembrolizumab maintenance for a maximum of 35 cycles (two years) or until progression of disease or unacceptable toxicity.

Drug: Pembrolizumab
Patients will receive pembrolizumab 200mg IV on day 1 (± 3days) of each cycle. Pembrolizumab will continue every 21 days (± 3 days) throughout the trial.

Combination Product: Olaparib and Temozolomide
Olaparib and temozolomide will begin on cycle 3 day 1 and continue through cycle 11. Olaparib will be dosed 200mg orally twice a day (bid) days 1-7 each cycle. Temozolomide 50 mg/m2 will be administered orally days 1-7 each cycle.

Experimental: Recurrent IDH-wildtype gliomas and homologous recombination deficiency (HRD).

Five patients will receive pembrolizumab for two cycles prior to the addition of olaparib and temozolomide. Combination olaparib and temozolomide will be added in cycle 3. Combination therapy will continue through cycle 11 (cycles 3-11 = 27 weeks or approximately 6 months). Patients will then continue on pembrolizumab maintenance for a maximum of 35 cycles (two years) or until progression of disease or unacceptable toxicity. This cohort will be analyzed descriptively.

Drug: Pembrolizumab
Patients will receive pembrolizumab 200mg IV on day 1 (± 3days) of each cycle. Pembrolizumab will continue every 21 days (± 3 days) throughout the trial.

Combination Product: Olaparib and Temozolomide
Olaparib and temozolomide will begin on cycle 3 day 1 and continue through cycle 11. Olaparib will be dosed 200mg orally twice a day (bid) days 1-7 each cycle. Temozolomide 50 mg/m2 will be administered orally days 1-7 each cycle.
