Therapy Name | Rucaparib |
Synonyms | |
Therapy Description |
Rubraca (rucaparib) binds to and inhibits PARP, which may result in accumulation of DNA damage and chemosensitization of tumor cells (PMID: 17363489). Rubraca (rucaparib) is FDA approved for use in ovarian cancer patients with deleterious somatic and/or germline BRCA mutations (FDA.gov). |

Rucaparib | Rubraca | AG014699|PF-01367338|CO-388|AG14447 | PARP Inhibitor (Pan) 21 | Rubraca (rucaparib) binds to and inhibits PARP, which may result in accumulation of DNA damage and chemosensitization of tumor cells (PMID: 17363489). Rubraca (rucaparib) is FDA approved for use as a maintenance therapy in patients with platinum-sensitive recurrent epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer, for treatment in patients with epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer harboring deleterious somatic and/or germline BRCA mutations who received 2 or more chemotherapies, and in patients with a deleterious BRCA mutation (germline and/or somatic)-associated metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who received anti-androgen therapy and a taxane-based therapy (FDA.gov). |

ATM del | prostate cancer | no benefit | Rucaparib | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, ATM-deficient prostate cancer cell lines did not respond to treatment with Rubraca (rucaparib) in culture (PMID: 32127357). | 32127357 |
Unknown unknown | ovarian cancer | not applicable | Rucaparib | FDA approved | Actionable | In a Phase III trial that supported FDA approval, Rubraca (rucaparib) maintenance therapy significantly improved median progression-free survival compared to placebo (10.8 vs 5.4 mo, HR=0.36, p<0.0001) in patients with recurrent epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer who responded to platinum-based therapy (PMID: 28916367; NCT01968213). | 28916367 |
