Positron-Emission Tomographic Imaging of a Fluorine 18-Radiolabeled Poly(ADP-Ribose) Polymerase 1 Inhibitor Monitors the Therapeutic Efficacy of Talazoparib in SCLC Patient-Derived Xenografts.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Inhibitors of poly-(ADP)-ribose polymerase (PARP) are promising therapeutics for SCLC. We tested whether PARP inhibitor (PARPi) target engagement as measured by a fluorine 18-radiolabeled PARPi ([¹⁸F]PARPi) has the potential to predict drug efficacy in vivo.

Methods

Tumor growth inhibition during daily talazoparib treatment was evaluated in mice engrafted with SCLC patient-derived xenografts to evaluate talazoparib efficacy at multiple doses. Mice were intravenously injected with [¹⁸F]PARPi radiotracer at multiple timepoints after single doses of oral talazoparib to quantitatively assess the extent to which talazoparib could reduce tumor radiotracer uptake and positron-emission tomographic (PET)/computer tomographic activity. Tumors were ha
