Toni Choueiri: Talazoparib with or without enzalutamide in mCRPC

Toni Choueiri shared on X:

JUST IN: HUGE NEWS ==> OS benefit from TALAPRO-2 study of PARP inh.

Talazoparib + Enzalutamide (Enza) vs. Enza in metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Results in all comers, as well as HRR gene-mutated mCRPC! Original results + for rPFS and published in The Lancet.

Congrats to PI Neeraj Agarwal, the team and the patients!”

Alessandro Samuelly, Medical oncologist at the University of Turin, shared a post by Toni Choueiri on X, adding:

” While this is somewhat good news, therapeutic anticipation has heavy impacts on QoL and economic burdens. These trials don’t provide subsequent standard of care treatment. I’m sure we’ll see that around 30-50% of patients will never receive a PARP inhibitor in the control group.”
