Safety and pharmacokinetics of veliparib extended-release in patients with advanced solid tumors: a phase I study.

ABSTRACT: The poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1/2 inhibitor veliparib is active against tumors deficient in homologous DNA damage repair. The pharmacokinetics and safety of veliparib extended-release (ER) were evaluated in patients with advanced solid tumors. This phase I study assessed veliparib-ER up to 800 mg once daily or 600 mg twice daily. Dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), recommended phase II dose (RP2D), and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) were assessed in cycle 1 and safety/tolerability during continuous administration (28-day cycles). Seventy-one patients (n = 53 ovarian, n = 17 breast, n = 1 prostate carcinoma) received veliparib; 50 had deleterious breast cancer susceptibility (BRCA) gene mutations. Single-dose veliparib-ER 200 mg (fasting) led to 58% lower peak concentration and similar area un
