Parent-Metabolite Pharmacokinetic Modeling and Pharmacodynamics of Veliparib (ABT-888), a PARP Inhibitor, in Patients With BRCA 1/2-Mutated Cancer or PARP-Sensitive Tumor Types.

ABSTRACT: Veliparib (ABT-888) is a novel oral poly-ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitor that is being developed for the treatment of hematologic malignancies and solid tumors. Although the pharmacokinetics of veliparib have been studied in combination with cytotoxic agents, limited information exists regarding the pharmacokinetics (PK) of chronically dosed single-agent veliparib in patients with either BRCA 1/2-mutated cancer or PARP-sensitive tumors. The objectives of the current analysis were to characterize the population pharmacokinetics of veliparib and its primary, active metabolite, M8, and to evaluate the relationship between veliparib and M8 concentrations and poly-ADP-ribose (PAR) level observed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Seventy-one subjects contributed with velipari
