Our findings reveal that both PARPi olaparib and rucaparib sensitize A549 cells to 12C-ion exposure, with olaparib exhibiting superior sensitization. Thus we are the first to demonstrate that olaparib sensitizes NSCLC cells to carbon ion by interfering with HR and NHEJ pathway. These insights underscore the promising therapeutic potential of combining PARP inhibition with carbon ion exposure for effective NSCLC management.

The 100-gene expression signature identified in this study may serve as a valuable predictive biomarker for PARP inhibitor sensitivity in gastric cancer.

The FDA recently approved olaparib and rucaparib for treating mCRPC patients with HRR gene alterations. Ongoing trials are investigating combination therapies involving PARP inhibitors combined with radiation, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and androgen receptor signaling inhibitors (ARSIs) to improve the effectiveness of PARP inhibitors and broaden the range of patients who can benefit from the treatment. This review provides an overview of the development of PARP inhibitors in prostate cancer and analyzes the mechanisms underlying their resistance.

PARP inhibitors, such as olaparib, niraparib, or rucaparib, provide considerable benefits regarding progression-free survival expansion and overall outcomes improvement in first-line maintenance and recurrent settings. Ongoing clinical trials and future potential for personalized therapy approaches using PARP inhibitors for advanced ovarian cancer are also highlighted. However, despite these drugs' phenomenal ability to revolutionize treatment protocols for such cancer types, several challenges remain: toxicity management, cost, and development of resistance will require more research to optimize their use or broaden patient populations who can benefit from them.

PARP inhibitors, such as Olaparib, Rucaparib, Niraparib, and Talazoparib have been approved in a number of cancers including BRCA 1/BRCA2 associated malignancies although there are many difficulties as therapeutical resistance. It emphasizes that isoxazole-based PARP inhibitors compounds could be novel anti-cancer drugs. Through this review, we hope to grow a curiosity in additional explorations of isoxazole-based PARP inhibitors and their applications in the trends of novel insights towards precision cancer therapy.

In PC, sensitivity to PARPi is dependent on the specific type and zygosity of the CDK12 mutation. PARPi monotherapy may have some activity in PC patients with biallelic inactivating CDK12 alterations.

Currently, four PARPi including Olaparib, Rucaparib, Niraparib, and Talazoparib have been developed and greatly improved clinical outcomes in cancer patients. However, accumulating evidences suggest that required or de novo resistance emerged. In this review, we discuss the molecular mechanisms leading to PARPi resistances and review the potential strategies to overcome PARPi resistance.

We propose that talazoparib promotes low-dose, CtIP/MRE11-dependent resection and increases the reliance of irradiated HR-proficient cancer cells, on Polθ-mediated alt-EJ. Combination of Polθ inhibitors with talazoparib suppresses this option and causes further radiosensitization. The results suggest that Polθ inhibition may be exploited to maximize talazoparib radiosensitization of HR-proficient tumors in the clinic.

Recently, poly-ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibition (by drugs such as Olaparib, Niraparib or Rucaparib) directed synthetic lethality approach in BRCA germline mutant or platinum sensitive disease has generated real hope for patients. However, in the more common platinum sensitive sporadic HGSOC, the clinical mechanisms of development of PARPi resistance remains to be defined. Here we provide a comprehensive review of the current status of PARPi and the mechanisms of resistance to therapy.

•Next generation sequencing identified a BRCA 2 mutation in a patient with stage IVB neuroendocrine cancer of the cervix.•Treatment with rucaparib resulted in disease stabilization for 74 months.•The patient remains fully active working full time as a nurse and pursing a nurse practitioner degree.

P2 | "NSCLC harboring biallelic alterations in BRCA1/2 and/or HRDsig+ represent a potentially actionable subset of NSCLC responsive to PARP inhibition (NCT03845296)."

The addition of PARPi can markedly improve the potency of SSTR2-targeted PRRT in SCLC models in SSTR2 low-expressing tumors. Further evaluation in humans seems justified based on the results as novel treatment options for SCLC are urgently needed.

In this small study, rucaparib plus atezolizumab demonstrated acceptable safety and activity in BRCA-mutated tumours. Increasing anti-tumour immunity and inflammation might be a key mechanism of action for clinical benefit from the combination, potentially guiding more targeted development of such regimens.

Our data indicate that, rather than acting via abrogation of cell cycle checkpoints, ATR, CHK1 and WEE1 inhibitors cause an HRD phenotype and hence "induced synthetic lethality" with PARPi.

PARP inhibitors such as olaparib and talazoparib have demonstrated efficacy in patients with BRCA mutations, leading to FDA approvals for ovarian and breast cancers. Similarly, in the second case, rucaparib demonstrated effectiveness as a maintenance therapy subsequent to achieving a near-complete response to taxane and platinum-based treatment. These findings emphasize the promising role of rucaparib in managing metastatic breast cancer in patients with BRCA1/2 mutations, further contributing to the expanding armamentarium of targeted therapies in breast cancer care.

Rucaparib can induce clinical responses in a biomarker-selected metastatic prostate cancer population without concurrent ADT. However, the pre-specified efficacy threshold was not met, and enrolment was truncated. Although durable responses were observed in a subset of patients, further study of PARPi treatment without ADT in mHSPC is unlikely to change clinical practice.

At present, it has been found the following types of targets: gene mutation targets such as BRCA associated protein 1 (BAP1) and cyclin-dependent kinase 2A (CDKN2A); epigenetic targets such as lysine (K)-specific demethylase 4A (KDM4A) and lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1), and signal protein targets such as glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3). So far, available clinical trials include phase II clinical trials of histone methyltransferase inhibitor Tazemetostat, poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor Rucaparib and cyclin-dependent kinases 4 and 6 (CDK4/6) inhibitor Abemaciclib, as well as phase I clinical trials of mesothelin-targeting chimeric antigen receptor T-cell immunotherapy (CAR-T) cell injection in the thoracic cavity and TEA domain family member (TEAD) inhibitor VT3989 and IK-930, and the results of these trials have showed certain clinical efficacy..

Pulse dosing of rucaparib and once every 3 weeks irinotecan was well tolerated for up to 18 months with durable responses in BRCA-, PALB2-, and ATM-mutated cancers despite progression on previous platinum.

PARPi's, such as olaparib and rucaparib, have emerged as vital treatments for metastatic CRPC with homologous recombination repair gene mutations, highlighting the importance of personalized medicine...Clinical trials like VISION and TheraP have demonstrated positive outcomes with RLT, particularly [177Lu]PSMA-617, leading to FDA approval...The landscape of PCa treatment is evolving, with significant advancements in both established and novel therapies. The combination of hormonal therapies, chemotherapy, PARPis, immunotherapy, and RLTs, guided by genetic and molecular insights, opens new possibilities for personalized treatment.

PARPi-based therapy showed considerable efficacy for mCRPC patients with HRD in 2nd -line setting. However, patients should be treated accordingly based on their genetic background as well as the efficacy and safety of the selected regimen.

Moreover, a low-Macrosig score indicates increased sensitivity to AZD.2281, A.443654, ABT.263, ABT.888, AG.014699 and ATRA, while a high Macrosig score indicates increased sensitivity to AZD6482, AKT inhibitor VIII, AS601245, AZ628, AZD.0530 and AZD6244. A novel scoring system was constructed to guide more effective prognostic evaluation and tailoring therapeutic regimens for HCC patients.

Olaparib and rucaparib, two poly-ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors, have received approval from the authorities of several countries for their anti-tumoral effects in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancers harboring HRR gene alterations, in particular BRCA2. More recently, it has been hypothesized that new hormonal therapies (NHTs) and PARP inhibitors (PARPi) could have synergistic actions and act independently of HRR deficiency. This review proposes to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of PARPi used as monotherapy or in combination with NHTs and whether there is a need for molecular selection.

PARPi eligibility increased at a greater rate than benefit resulting in a low population-level benefit-to-eligibility ratio until 2021. Recent FDA withdrawals improved this ratio with an accompanied decrease in the absolute number of patients benefiting. To further optimize population-level benefit-to-eligibility ratio of targeted therapies in ovarian cancer, we need to identify better biomarkers, treatment combinations, and novel therapeutic targets.

We clarified the patient's challenging diagnosis and discussed the clinicopathology, immunophenotype, differential diagnosis, and molecular genetic information regarding TFEB/6p21/VEGFA-amplified RCC via exome analysis and a literature review.
