Abstract
Introduction: Advances in our understanding of tumor biology shed light on hallmarks of cancer development and progression that include dysregulated DNA damage repair (DDR) machinery. Leveraging the underlying tumor genomic instability and tumor-specific defects in DDR, Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors (PARPi) induced DNA damage emerges as a novel non-chemotherapy therapeutic opportunity. PARPis are currently approved in multiple tumor types, with the largest benefit seen in tumors with homologous recombination repair (HRR) deficiency, including germline and somatic mutations in BRCA1/2 genes (BRCA) and other pathway members such as PALB2 and Rad51c.
Areas covered: This review article summarizes the current approval landscape and known and proposed mechanisms of resistance to PARPi. Further, therapeutic strategies to overcome PARPi resistance are discussed, including ongoing clinical trials.
Expert opinion: PARPi have proven to be a safe and effective therapy and represents a cornerstone treatment across multiple solid tumor types. Elucidating innate and acquired mechanisms of resistance, coupled with the emergence of novel therapeutic options to capitalize on the activity of PARPi and prevent or reverse the acquisition of resistance, provides an opportunity to further expand the role of PARPi in cancer therapy.
期刊介绍:
Expert Review of Anticancer Therapy (ISSN 1473-7140) provides expert appraisal and commentary on the major trends in cancer care and highlights the performance of new therapeutic and diagnostic approaches.
Coverage includes tumor management, novel medicines, anticancer agents and chemotherapy, biological therapy, cancer vaccines, therapeutic indications, biomarkers and diagnostics, and treatment guidelines. All articles are subject to rigorous peer-review, and the journal makes an essential contribution to decision-making in cancer care.
Comprehensive coverage in each review is complemented by the unique Expert Review format and includes the following sections:
Expert Opinion - a personal view of the data presented in the article, a discussion on the developments that are likely to be important in the future, and the avenues of research likely to become exciting as further studies yield more detailed results
Article Highlights – an executive summary of the author’s most critical points.
