Population Pharmacokinetics of Talazoparib in Patients With Advanced Cancer.

Population Pharmacokinetics of Talazoparib in Patients With Advanced Cancer. J Clin Pharmacol. 2019 Sep 06;: Authors: Yu Y, Durairaj C, Shi H, Wang DD Abstract Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors have been developed to treat cancers associated with somatic BRCA mutations and germline genetic aberrations involved in the DNA damage response. The efficacy, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) profile of talazoparib, a potent small-molecule PARP inhibitor, was established in 4 clinical studies in cancer patients (2 phase 1 studies PRP-001 and PRP-002, the phase 2 ABRAZO trial, and the phase 3 EMBRACA trial). The current study aimed to describe the population PK of talazoparib and identify covariates that affect talazoparib PK in patients with advanced cancers using pooled data from these 4 studies. Talazoparib PK was well characterized by a 2-compartment model with first-order absorption and absorption lag time. Based on covariate analysis, no dose adjustment for talazoparib is required based on a patient's age, sex, baseline body weight, Asian race, the presence of mild renal or hepatic impairment, or use of acid-reducing agents. A reduced 0.75-mg daily dose is recommended for patients taking a potent P-glycoprotein inhibitor and those with moderate renal impairment. Insufficient data were available to establish dosing recommendations for patients with severe renal and moderate or severe hepatic impairment...
