Abstract Text | Talazoparib inhibits PARP catalytic activity, trapping PARP1 on damaged DNA and causing cell death in BRCA1/2-mutated cells. We evaluated talazoparib therapy in this two-part, phase I, first-in-human trial. Antitumor activity, MTD, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of once-daily talazoparib were determined in an open-label, multicenter, dose-escalation study (NCT01286987). The MTD was 1.0 mg/day, with an elimination half-life of 50 hours. Treatment-related adverse events included fatigue (26/71 patients; 37%) and anemia (25/71 patients; 35%). Grade 3 to 4 adverse events included anemia (17/71 patients; 24%) and thrombocytopenia (13/71 patients; 18%). Sustained PARP inhibition was observed at doses ≥0.60 mg/day. At 1.0 mg/day, confirmed responses were observed in 7 of 14 (50%) and 5 of 12 (42%) patients with BRCA mutation-associated breast and ovarian cancers, respectively, and in patients with pancreatic and small cell lung cancer. Talazoparib demonstrated single-agent antitumor activity and was well tolerated in patients at the recommended dose of 1.0 mg/day.Significance: In this clinical trial, we show that talazoparib has single-agent antitumor activity and a tolerable safety profile. At its recommended phase II dose of 1.0 mg/day, confirmed responses were observed in patients with BRCA mutation-associated breast and ovarian cancers and in patients with pancreatic and small cell lung cancer.

Talazoparib | Talzenna | BMN673 | PARP Inhibitor (Pan) 30 | Talzenna (talazoparib) is an inhibitor of PARP1 and PARP2, which prevents the DNA repair of single strand DNA breaks, thus causing the accumulation of DNA strand breaks, genomic instability and apoptosis, and leads to lethality in homologous recombination repair deficient cells (PMID: 28242752). Talzenna (talazoparib) is FDA approved for use in patients with ERBB2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer harboring deleterious or suspected deleterious germline BRCA mutations, and in combination with Xtandi (enzalutamide) in patients with homologous recombination repair gene (ATM, ATR, BRCA1/2, CDK12, CHEK2, FANCA, MLH1, MRE11A, NBN, PALB2, or RAD51C)-mutated metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (FDA.gov). |

PALB2 mutant | pancreatic cancer | predicted - sensitive | Talazoparib | Case Reports/Case Series | Actionable | In a Phase I trial, Talzenna (talazoparib) treatment resulted in an objective response rate of 20.0% (2/10, 2 partial responses) and a clinical benefit rate of 30.0% in patients with pancreatic cancer, including a partial response in one patient harboring a PALB2 mutation (PMID: 28242752; NCT01286987). | 28242752 |
