Measuring the Effects of Talazoparib in Patients With Advanced Cancer and DNA Repair Variations

Inclusion Criteria: * Adult patients with solid tumors and documented germline or somatic aberrations in genes involved in DNA damage response (DDR) and whose disease has progressed following at least one standard therapy or who have no acceptable standard treatment options. Molecular testing performed at an National Cancer Institute-Molecular Analysis for Therapy Choice (NCI-MATCH) (NCT02465060) study-designated Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act (CLIA) laboratory or at Myriad Genetics, GeneDx, Invitae, or the Frederick National Laboratory for Cancer Research (FNLCR) Molecular Characterization Laboratory (MoCha) will be acceptable for determination of eligibility * Patients with the following germline or somatic genetic aberrations will be eligible based on compelling preclinical and/or clinical data suggesting that these deleterious mutations confer sensitivity to PARP inhibitors; no more than 6 patients (across both cohorts) with an eligibility mutation in any one gene will be enrolled * Deleterious BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations * Loss of function mutations (including novel loss of function frameshift or nonsense mutations) in the following Fanconi anemia genes: FANCA, FANCB, FANCC, FANCD2, FANCE, FANCF, FANCG, FANCI, FANCJ, FANCL, FANCM, FANCN * A known functional mutation (including novel loss of function frameshift or nonsense mutations) in any of the following DDR genes: ARID1A, ATM, ATR, BACH1 (BRIP1), BAP1, BARD1, CDK12, CHK1, CHK2, IDH1, IDH2, MRE11A, NBN, PALB2…
