Talazoparib (BMN-673)

Biological Activity

Talazoparib (BMN-673) is a highly potent, orally active PARP1/2 inhibitor.Talazoparib inhibits PARP1 and PARP2 enzyme activity with Kis of 1.2 nM and 0.87 nM, respectively. Talazoparib shows EC50s of 0.3 nM, 5 nM and 0.31 for MX-1 cells (BRCA1 mutant), Capan-1 cells (BRCA2 mutant) and MRC-5 cells (normal).

In vivo, Talazoparib (0.33 mg/kg; i.g.; once daily; for 28 days) exhibits antitumor activity against BRCA1 mutant breast cancer model in mice

	Cell Lines	TNBC cells
	Concentrations	1–5 nM
	Incubation Time	72 h
	Results	As expected, TNBC cells mutant for BRCA1 (SUM149PT) are sensitive to talazoparib (10 nM BMN 673) alone, but these cells are even more sensitive to a combination of talazoparib (1 and 10 nM) and AZA (150 nM).

	Method	MTS assay
	Cell Lines	MDA-MB-231 cells, MOLM14 cells
	Concentrations	2.5–20 nM
	Incubation Time	72 h
	Results	Significant decrease in survival was also observed with combination drug treatments (AZA and BMN 673 or DAC and BMN 673) compared with either drug alone (Figures 3A–3D, middle and lower panels).

	Method
	Cell Lines	MDA-MB-231 cells, MOLM14 cells
	Concentrations	10 nM
	Incubation Time	72 h
	Results	Also, in MOLM14 AML cells, combination dosing with DAC (5 nM) and BMN 673 (5 nM) induces increases in gH2AX foci, as compared with single-drug treatments (Figure 2G). In a key association with the above data, both MOLM14 AML and MDA-MB-231 TNBC cells treated with the combination of the two drugs exhibit synergistic cytotoxicity, as assessed by the CalcuSyn model.

	Concentrations	1, 2.5, and 5 nM
	Incubation Time	72 h
	Results	In our present study, talazoparib (BMN 673) at very low nanomolar concentrations (1, 2.5, or 5 nM) also traps PARP1 in chromatin extracts (Figure 1C) to thesame extent as the weaker PARPi ABT888 at much higher concentrations (500 nM) (Figure S2A).

	Results	These data suggest that the GI effects observed in the cisplatin and BMN 673 treatment arms are due to the anti-proliferative effects of these agents, and that these two drugs have equivalent anti-proliferative effects on a PDAC arising from germline BRCA2 mutation carriers.

	Incubation Time	70 days
	Results	Treatment with BMN 673 (10 tumors) also resulted in significant GI compared with vehicle treated controls (8 tumors) (195.05 mm3 ± 95.21 mm3 (SD) versus 520.55 mm3 ± 62.68 mm3 (SD); p = 0.0006); cisplatin and BMN 673 have similar efficacies in this BRCA2 associated PDAC.

	Method	long-term colony formation assays
	Cell Lines	PANC-1 BRCA2-knockdown cell lines
	Concentrations	0.3125; 0.625; 1.25; 2.5; 5μM
	Incubation Time	10 days
	Results	The IC50 values with BMN 673 were 0.57 μM ± 0.16 μM (p < 0.0001) and 0.53 μM ± 0.13 μM(p < 0.0001) in the PANC-1_shRNA 2 [BRCA2] and PANC-1_shRNA 3 [BRCA2] cell lines compared to 1.22 μM ± 0.25 μM in the control cell line. BMN 673 is a more effective PARPi for BRCA2-associated PDAC compared to the earlier-generation PARPis such as veliparib, and that BMN 673, rather than veliparib, should be selected for our preclinical PDX trial evaluation.

	Method	Real-time cell analysis (xCELLigence)

	Concentrations	unnoted
	Incubation Time	48 hours
	Results	Mean IC50 values were 11.4 mM ± 1.4 mM versus 12.7 mM ± 3.6 mM for gemcitabine (NS), 38.3 μM ± 7.3 μM versus 10.2 ± 1.5 μM (p = 0.0150) for cisplatin, and 58.23 ± 8.1 μM versus 16.0 ± 5.4 μM (p = 0.0105) for BMN 673 in MIA PaCa-2 versus Capan-1 cells, respectively. The efficacy of cisplatin and BMN 673 may be similar and that BMN 673 may be a less toxic alternative to cisplatin.

For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the K_m factor for a mouse and then divide by the K_m factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.
