(6.1). 6.1 Clinical Trials Experience. Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.The data described in the WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS section reflect exposure to single agent TALZENNA in solid tumor clinical studies, including 286 patients enrolled in EMBRACA trial and to TALZENNA 0.5 mg daily with enzalutamide in 511 patients enrolled in the TALAPRO-2 trial that included 197 patients with HRR gene-mutated mCRPC.gBRCAm HER2-negative Locally Advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer EMBRACA The safety of TALZENNA as single agent was evaluated in gBRCAm patients with HER2-negative locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer who had previously received no more than lines of chemotherapy for the treatment of locally advanced/metastatic disease [see Clinical Studies (14.1)]. EMBRACA was randomized, open-label, multi-center study in which 412 patients received either TALZENNA mg once daily (N=286) or chemotherapy agent (capecitabine, eribulin, gemcitabine, or vinorelbine) of the healthcare providers choice (N=126) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The median duration of study treatment was 6.1 months in patients who received TALZENNA and 3.9 months in patients who received chemotherapy.Serious adverse reactions of TALZENNA occurred in 32% of patients. Serious adverse reactions reported in >2% of patients included anemia (6%) and pyrexia (2%). Fatal adverse reactions occurred in 1% of patients, including cerebral hemorrhage, liver disorder, veno-occlusive liver disease, and worsening neurological symptoms (1 patient each).Permanent discontinuation due to adverse reactions occurred in 5% of TALZENNA patients. Dosing interruptions due to an adverse reaction of any grade occurred in 65% of patients receiving TALZENNA; dose reductions due to any cause occurred in 53% of TALZENNA patients.The most common (>=20%) adverse reactions, including laboratory abnormalities, were hemoglobin decreased, neutrophils decreased, lymphocytes decreased, platelets decreased, fatigue, glucose increased, aspartate aminotransferase increased, alkaline phosphatase increased, alanine aminotransferase increased, calcium decreased, nausea, headache, vomiting, alopecia, diarrhea, and decreased appetite.Table and Table summarize the most common adverse reactions and laboratory abnormalities, respectively, in patients treated with TALZENNA or chemotherapy in the EMBRACA study.Table 5.

CARCINOGENESIS & MUTAGENESIS & IMPAIRMENT OF FERTILITY SECTION.
13.1Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility. Carcinogenicity studies have not been conducted with talazoparib.Talazoparib was clastogenic in an in vitro chromosomal aberration assay in human peripheral blood lymphocytes and in an in vivo bone marrow micronucleus assay in rats. This clastogenicity is consistent with genomic instability resulting from the primary pharmacology of talazoparib, indicating the potential for genotoxicity in humans. Talazoparib was not mutagenic in bacterial reverse mutation (Ames) test.Fertility studies in animals have not been conducted with talazoparib. In repeat-dose toxicity studies up to 3-months duration, talazoparib-related findings in the testis and epididymis at doses >=0.04 mg/kg/day in rats and >=0.01 mg/kg/day in dogs included decreased organ weights, luminal cellular debris, reduced sperm, and degeneration/atrophy. These doses in rats and dogs resulted in approximately 1.0 times and 0.2 times, respectively, the exposure (AUC) in humans at the recommended dose of mg daily. Follicular atresia of the ovary was observed in rats at doses >=1 mg/kg/day talazoparib, approximately 9.5 times the AUC in patients at the recommended dose of mg daily.

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY SECTION.
12 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY. 12.1Mechanism of Action. Talazoparib is an inhibitor of PARP enzymes, including PARP1 and PARP2, which play role in DNA repair. In vitro studies with cancer cell lines that harbored defects in DNA repair genes, including BRCA1 and BRCA2, have shown that talazoparib-induced cytotoxicity may involve inhibition of PARP enzymatic activity and increased formation of PARP-DNA complexes resulting in DNA damage, decreased cell proliferation, and apoptosis. Talazoparib anti-tumor activity was observed in patient-derived xenograft breast cancer models bearing mutated BRCA1 or mutated BRCA2 or wild type BRCA1 and BRCA2.. 12.2 Pharmacodynamics. The exposure-response relationship and time course of pharmacodynamic response for the safety and effectiveness of TALZENNA have not been fully characterized.Cardiac ElectrophysiologyAt dose of mg (the recommended dosage for treatment of breast cancer), TALZENNA had no large QTc prolongation (i.e., >20 ms).. 12.3 Pharmacokinetics. After administration of TALZENNA mg orally once daily as single agent (the recommended dosage for breast cancer), the mean [% coefficient of variation (CV%)] AUC and maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) of talazoparib at steady-state was 173 (32%) ng.hr/mL and 19 (32%) ng/mL, respectively. The mean (CV%) steady-state Ctrough was 3.5 (61%) ng/mL.After administration of TALZENNA 0.5 mg orally once daily (the recommended dosage for prostate cancer) with enzalutamide, the mean (CV%) steady-state Ctrough ranged from 3.3 to 3.7 ng/mL (45% to 48%).The pharmacokinetics (PK) of talazoparib is linear from 0.025 mg to mg (2 times the recommended dose for breast cancer). The median accumulation ratio of talazoparib following mg orally once daily is 2.3 to 5.2. Talazoparib plasma concentrations reached steady-state within to weeks when administered as single agent and within weeks when coadministered with enzalutamide.Absorption The median time to Cmax (Tmax) was approximately hour (range: 0.4 to hours) after dosing.Food Effect Following administration of TALZENNA mg dose soft gelatin capsule with high-fat, high-calorie food (approximately 800 to 1,000 calories with 150, 250, and 500 to 600 calories from protein, carbohydrate, and fat, respectively), the mean steady-state Cmax was decreased by 42%, the median Tmax was delayed from to hours, and AUC was not affected as compared to those under fasted conditions.Distribution The mean apparent volume of distribution of talazoparib is 420 L. In vitro, protein binding of talazoparib is 74% and is independent of talazoparib concentration.Elimination The mean terminal plasma half-life (+-standard deviation) is 90 (+-58) hours and the mean apparent oral clearance (inter-subject variability) is 6.5 L/h (31%).Metabolism Talazoparib undergoes minimal hepatic metabolism. The identified metabolic pathways include mono-oxidation, dehydrogenation, cysteine conjugation of mono-desfluoro-talazoparib, and glucuronide conjugation.Excretion Excretion of talazoparib in urine was the major route of elimination. Approximately 69% (55% unchanged) of the total administered radiolabeled dose of talazoparib was recovered in urine, and 20% (14% unchanged) was recovered in feces.Specific Populations Age (18 to 88 years), sex, race (361 White, 41 Asian, 16 Black, Others, and 63 Not Reported), body weight (36 to 162 kg), and mild to severe hepatic impairment had no clinically significant effect on the PK of talazoparib.Patients with Renal Impairment Mild (eGFR 60 89 mL/min/1.73 m2) renal impairment had no clinically significant effect on talazoparib pharmacokinetics. Talazoparib steady-state total exposure (AUC) increased by 43% in subjects with moderate (eGFR 30 59 mL/min/1.73 m2) renal impairment and 163% in patients with severe (eGFR 15 29 mL/min/1.73 m2) renal impairment relative to subjects with normal renal function (eGFR >= 90 mL/min/1.73 m2). Talazoparib steady-state peak concentration (Cmax) increased by 32% in subjects with moderate renal impairment and 89% in subjects with severe renal impairment, relative to subjects with normal renal function. Similar increases in AUC were observed with talazoparib when given with enzalutamide for patients with moderate and severe renal impairment. The PK of talazoparib has not been studied in patients requiring hemodialysis. There was no evidence of relationship between the protein binding of talazoparib and renal function.Drug Interaction Studies Clinical Studies Effect of P-gp Inhibitors: Coadministration of P-gp inhibitor (itraconazole) with single 0.5 mg dose of TALZENNA increased talazoparib AUC and Cmax by approximately 56% and 40%, respectively. Coadministration with the following other P-gp inhibitors: amiodarone, carvedilol, clarithromycin, itraconazole, and verapamil increased talazoparib exposure by 45%.Coadministration with other P-gp inhibitors (including azithromycin, atorvastatin, diltiazem, felodipine, fluvoxamine, and quercetin) had no clinically significant effect on talazoparib pharmacokinetics.Effect of P-gp Inducers: Coadministration of P-gp inducer (rifampin) with single mg dose of TALZENNA increased talazoparib Cmax by 37% with no effect on talazoparib AUC.Effect of Acid-Reducing Agents: Coadministration of acid-reducing agents including proton pump inhibitors (PPI), histamine receptor antagonists (H2RA), or other acid-reducing agents has no effect on the absorption of talazoparib.Enzalutamide: Coadministration of enzalutamide with TALZENNA increased talazoparib exposure approximately 2-fold.In Vitro StudiesTransporters: Talazoparib is substrate of P-gp and BCRP transporters, but not substrate of OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT1, OCT2, OAT1, OAT3, BSEP, MATE1, or MATE2-K.Talazoparib is not an inhibitor of P-gp, BCRP, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT1, OCT2, OAT1, OAT3, BSEP, MATE1, or MATE2-K.CYP Enzymes: Talazoparib is not an inhibitor of CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, or CYP3A4/5.Talazoparib is not an inducer of CYP1A2, CYP2B6, or CYP3A4.UGT: Talazoparib is not an inhibitor of UGT isoforms (1A1, 1A4, 1A6, 1A9, 2B7, and 2B15).

CLINICAL STUDIES SECTION.
14 CLINICAL STUDIES. 14.1 Deleterious or Suspected Deleterious Germline BRCA-mutated HER2-negative Locally Advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer EMBRACA (NCT01945775) was an open-label study in which patients (N=431) with gBRCAm HER2-negative locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer were randomized 2:1 to receive TALZENNA mg or healthcare providers choice of chemotherapy (capecitabine, eribulin, gemcitabine, or vinorelbine) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Randomization was stratified by prior lines of chemotherapy for metastatic disease (0 versus 1, 2, or 3), by triple-negative disease status [triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) versus non-TNBC], and history of central nervous system (CNS) metastasis (yes versus no).Patients received no more than prior cytotoxic chemotherapy regimens for their metastatic or locally advanced disease. Patients were required to have received treatment with an anthracycline and/or taxane (unless contraindicated) in the neoadjuvant, adjuvant, and/or metastatic treatment setting. First-line treatment for advanced or metastatic disease with no prior adjuvant chemotherapy was allowed if the investigator determined that of the chemotherapy choices in the control arm would be an appropriate treatment option for the patient. Patients with prior platinum therapy for advanced disease were required to have no evidence of disease progression during platinum therapy. No prior treatment with PARP inhibitor was permitted. Of the 431 patients randomized in the EMBRACA study, 408 (95%) were centrally confirmed to have deleterious or suspected deleterious gBRCAm using clinical trial assay; out of which 354 (82%) were confirmed using the BRACAnalysis CDx(R). BRCA mutation status [breast cancer susceptibility gene (BRCA1)-positive or breast cancer susceptibility gene (BRCA2)-positive] was similar across both treatment arms.The median age of patients treated with TALZENNA was 46 years (range 28 to 84) and 51 years (range 24 to 89) among patients treated with chemotherapy. Among all randomized patients, 1% versus 2% were males, 67% versus 75% were White; 11% versus 11% were Asian, and 4% versus 1% were Black or African American in the TALZENNA and chemotherapy arms, respectively. Almost all patients (98%) in both arms had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of or 1. Approximately 56% of patients had estrogen receptor-positive and/or progesterone receptor-positive disease; 44% of patients had triple-negative disease, and the proportions were balanced across both treatment arms. Fifteen percent (15%) of patients in the TALZENNA arm and 14% of patients in the chemotherapy arm had history of CNS metastases. Ninety-one percent (91%) of patients in the TALZENNA arm had received prior taxane therapy, and 85% had received prior anthracycline therapy in any setting. Sixteen percent (16%) of patients in the TALZENNA arm and 21% of patients in the chemotherapy arm had received prior platinum treatment in any setting. The median number of prior cytotoxic regimens for patients with advanced breast cancer was one; 38% received no prior cytotoxic regimens for advanced or metastatic disease, 37% received one, 20% received two, and 5% received three or more prior cytotoxic regimens.The major efficacy outcome measure was progression-free survival (PFS) evaluated according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1, as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR). statistically significant improvement in PFS was demonstrated for TALZENNA compared to chemotherapy. sensitivity analysis of investigator-assessed PFS was consistent with the BICR-assessed PFS results. Consistent PFS results were observed across patient subgroups defined by study stratification factors (prior lines of chemotherapy, TNBC status, and history of CNS metastases). Efficacy data from the EMBRACA study are summarized in Table 9, and the Kaplan-Meier curves for PFS are shown in Figure and final overall survival (OS) in Figure 2.Table 9.

Figure 2. 14.2 HRR Gene-mutated mCRPC The efficacy of TALZENNA with enzalutamide was evaluated in TALAPRO-2 (NCT03395197), randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-cohort trial in which 399 patients with HRR gene-mutated (HRRm) mCRPC were randomized 1:1 to receive enzalutamide 160 mg daily plus either TALZENNA 0.5 mg or placebo daily until unacceptable toxicity or disease progression. Mutation status of HRR genes was determined prospectively using solid tumor tissue or circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA)-based next generation sequencing assays. Patients were required to have mutation in at least one of 12 genes involved directly or indirectly in the HRR pathway (ATM, ATR, BRCA1, BRCA2, CDK12, CHEK2, FANCA, MLH1, MRE11A, NBN, PALB2, or RAD51C). All patients received GnRH analog or had prior bilateral orchiectomy and needed to have progressed on prior androgen deprivation therapy. Prior treatment with CYP17 inhibitor or docetaxel for metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC) was permitted. Randomization was stratified by previous treatment with CYP17 inhibitor or docetaxel (yes/no).The median age was 70 years (range: 41 to 90); 100% were male; 68% were White, 21% Asian, 2.8% Black, 0.8% Other, 7% unknown/not reported; 12% were Hispanic/Latino; and baseline ECOG performance status was (62%) or (38%). Thirty-nine percent of patients had bone-only disease; 15% had visceral disease. In the mCSPC setting, 29% percent of patients had received docetaxel and 9% had received prior CYP17 inhibitor. The most commonly mutated HRR genes (>5%), including co-occurring mutations, were: BRCA2 (34%), ATM (22%), CDK12 (19%), CHEK2 (18%), and BRCA1 (6%).The major efficacy outcome measure was radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) evaluated according to RECIST, version 1.1 and Prostate Cancer Working Group (PCWG3) (bone) criteria, assessed by BICR. An additional efficacy outcome measure was OS.A statistically significant improvement in rPFS and OS were demonstrated in patients randomized to TALZENNA with enzalutamide compared with placebo with enzalutamide.

CLINICAL TRIALS EXPERIENCE SECTION.
6.1 Clinical Trials Experience. Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice.The data described in the WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS section reflect exposure to single agent TALZENNA in solid tumor clinical studies, including 286 patients enrolled in EMBRACA trial and to TALZENNA 0.5 mg daily with enzalutamide in 511 patients enrolled in the TALAPRO-2 trial that included 197 patients with HRR gene-mutated mCRPC.gBRCAm HER2-negative Locally Advanced or Metastatic Breast Cancer EMBRACA The safety of TALZENNA as single agent was evaluated in gBRCAm patients with HER2-negative locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer who had previously received no more than lines of chemotherapy for the treatment of locally advanced/metastatic disease [see Clinical Studies (14.1)]. EMBRACA was randomized, open-label, multi-center study in which 412 patients received either TALZENNA mg once daily (N=286) or chemotherapy agent (capecitabine, eribulin, gemcitabine, or vinorelbine) of the healthcare providers choice (N=126) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

LACTATION SECTION.
8.2 Lactation. Risk SummaryThere are no data on the presence of talazoparib in human milk, the effects of the drug on milk production, or the effects of the drug on the breastfed child. Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in breastfed child from talazoparib, advise lactating women not to breastfeed during treatment with TALZENNA and for month after the last dose.

MECHANISM OF ACTION SECTION.
12.1Mechanism of Action. Talazoparib is an inhibitor of PARP enzymes, including PARP1 and PARP2, which play role in DNA repair. In vitro studies with cancer cell lines that harbored defects in DNA repair genes, including BRCA1 and BRCA2, have shown that talazoparib-induced cytotoxicity may involve inhibition of PARP enzymatic activity and increased formation of PARP-DNA complexes resulting in DNA damage, decreased cell proliferation, and apoptosis. Talazoparib anti-tumor activity was observed in patient-derived xenograft breast cancer models bearing mutated BRCA1 or mutated BRCA2 or wild type BRCA1 and BRCA2.

NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY SECTION.
13 NONCLINICAL TOXICOLOGY. 13.1Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility. Carcinogenicity studies have not been conducted with talazoparib.Talazoparib was clastogenic in an in vitro chromosomal aberration assay in human peripheral blood lymphocytes and in an in vivo bone marrow micronucleus assay in rats. This clastogenicity is consistent with genomic instability resulting from the primary pharmacology of talazoparib, indicating the potential for genotoxicity in humans. Talazoparib was not mutagenic in bacterial reverse mutation (Ames) test.Fertility studies in animals have not been conducted with talazoparib. In repeat-dose toxicity studies up to 3-months duration, talazoparib-related findings in the testis and epididymis at doses >=0.04 mg/kg/day in rats and >=0.01 mg/kg/day in dogs included decreased organ weights, luminal cellular debris, reduced sperm, and degeneration/atrophy. These doses in rats and dogs resulted in approximately 1.0 times and 0.2 times, respectively, the exposure (AUC) in humans at the recommended dose of mg daily. Follicular atresia of the ovary was observed in rats at doses >=1 mg/kg/day talazoparib, approximately 9.5 times the AUC in patients at the recommended dose of mg daily.

PHARMACOKINETICS SECTION.
12.3 Pharmacokinetics. After administration of TALZENNA mg orally once daily as single agent (the recommended dosage for breast cancer), the mean [% coefficient of variation (CV%)] AUC and maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax) of talazoparib at steady-state was 173 (32%) ng.hr/mL and 19 (32%) ng/mL, respectively. The mean (CV%) steady-state Ctrough was 3.5 (61%) ng/mL.After administration of TALZENNA 0.5 mg orally once daily (the recommended dosage for prostate cancer) with enzalutamide, the mean (CV%) steady-state Ctrough ranged from 3.3 to 3.7 ng/mL (45% to 48%).The pharmacokinetics (PK) of talazoparib is linear from 0.025 mg to mg (2 times the recommended dose for breast cancer). The median accumulation ratio of talazoparib following mg orally once daily is 2.3 to 5.2. Talazoparib plasma concentrations reached steady-state within to weeks when administered as single agent and within weeks when coadministered with enzalutamide.Absorption The median time to Cmax (Tmax) was approximately hour (range: 0.4 to hours) after dosing.Food Effect Following administration of TALZENNA mg dose soft gelatin capsule with high-fat, high-calorie food (approximately 800 to 1,000 calories with 150, 250, and 500 to 600 calories from protein, carbohydrate, and fat, respectively), the mean steady-state Cmax was decreased by 42%, the median Tmax was delayed from to hours, and AUC was not affected as compared to those under fasted conditions.Distribution The mean apparent volume of distribution of talazoparib is 420 L. In vitro, protein binding of talazoparib is 74% and is independent of talazoparib concentration.Elimination The mean terminal plasma half-life (+-standard deviation) is 90 (+-58) hours and the mean apparent oral clearance (inter-subject variability) is 6.5 L/h (31%).Metabolism Talazoparib undergoes minimal hepatic metabolism. The identified metabolic pathways include mono-oxidation, dehydrogenation, cysteine conjugation of mono-desfluoro-talazoparib, and glucuronide conjugation.Excretion Excretion of talazoparib in urine was the major route of elimination. Approximately 69% (55% unchanged) of the total administered radiolabeled dose of talazoparib was recovered in urine, and 20% (14% unchanged) was recovered in feces.Specific Populations Age (18 to 88 years), sex, race (361 White, 41 Asian, 16 Black, Others, and 63 Not Reported), body weight (36 to 162 kg), and mild to severe hepatic impairment had no clinically significant effect on the PK of talazoparib.Patients with Renal Impairment Mild (eGFR 60 89 mL/min/1.73 m2) renal impairment had no clinically significant effect on talazoparib pharmacokinetics. Talazoparib steady-state total exposure (AUC) increased by 43% in subjects with moderate (eGFR 30 59 mL/min/1.73 m2) renal impairment and 163% in patients with severe (eGFR 15 29 mL/min/1.73 m2) renal impairment relative to subjects with normal renal function (eGFR >= 90 mL/min/1.73 m2). Talazoparib steady-state peak concentration (Cmax) increased by 32% in subjects with moderate renal impairment and 89% in subjects with severe renal impairment, relative to subjects with normal renal function. Similar increases in AUC were observed with talazoparib when given with enzalutamide for patients with moderate and severe renal impairment. The PK of talazoparib has not been studied in patients requiring hemodialysis. There was no evidence of relationship between the protein binding of talazoparib and renal function.Drug Interaction Studies Clinical Studies Effect of P-gp Inhibitors: Coadministration of P-gp inhibitor (itraconazole) with single 0.5 mg dose of TALZENNA increased talazoparib AUC and Cmax by approximately 56% and 40%, respectively. Coadministration with the following other P-gp inhibitors: amiodarone, carvedilol, clarithromycin, itraconazole, and verapamil increased talazoparib exposure by 45%.Coadministration with other P-gp inhibitors (including azithromycin, atorvastatin, diltiazem, felodipine, fluvoxamine, and quercetin) had no clinically significant effect on talazoparib pharmacokinetics.Effect of P-gp Inducers: Coadministration of P-gp inducer (rifampin) with single mg dose of TALZENNA increased talazoparib Cmax by 37% with no effect on talazoparib AUC.Effect of Acid-Reducing Agents: Coadministration of acid-reducing agents including proton pump inhibitors (PPI), histamine receptor antagonists (H2RA), or other acid-reducing agents has no effect on the absorption of talazoparib.Enzalutamide: Coadministration of enzalutamide with TALZENNA increased talazoparib exposure approximately 2-fold.In Vitro StudiesTransporters: Talazoparib is substrate of P-gp and BCRP transporters, but not substrate of OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT1, OCT2, OAT1, OAT3, BSEP, MATE1, or MATE2-K.Talazoparib is not an inhibitor of P-gp, BCRP, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OCT1, OCT2, OAT1, OAT3, BSEP, MATE1, or MATE2-K.CYP Enzymes: Talazoparib is not an inhibitor of CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, or CYP3A4/5.Talazoparib is not an inducer of CYP1A2, CYP2B6, or CYP3A4.UGT: Talazoparib is not an inhibitor of UGT isoforms (1A1, 1A4, 1A6, 1A9, 2B7, and 2B15).

PREGNANCY SECTION.
8.1 Pregnancy. Risk SummaryBased on findings from animal studies and its mechanism of action [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1)], TALZENNA can cause embryo-fetal harm when administered to pregnant woman. There are no available data on TALZENNA use in pregnant women to inform drug-associated risk. In an animal reproduction study, the administration of talazoparib to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis caused fetal malformations and structural skeletal variations and embryo-fetal death at maternal exposures that were 0.24 times the AUC in patients receiving the recommended dose of mg daily (see Data). Apprise pregnant women and females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to fetus.The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. In the general U.S. population, the estimated background risks of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies are 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.DataAnimal DataIn an embryo-fetal development toxicity study, pregnant rats received oral doses of 0.015, 0.05, and 0.15 mg/kg/day talazoparib during the period of organogenesis. Talazoparib caused embryo-fetal death at doses >=0.015 mg/kg/day (approximately 0.24 times the AUC in patients at the recommended dose of mg daily). dose of 0.015 mg/kg/day caused decreased fetal body weights and an increased incidence of fetal malformations (depressed eye bulge, small eye, split sternebra, and fused cervical vertebral arch) and structural variations including misshapen or incomplete ossification of the sternebra, skull, rib, and vertebra.

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS SECTION.
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS. oMyelodysplastic Syndrome/Acute Myeloid Leukemia (MDS/AML): MDS/AML occurred in patients exposed to TALZENNA, and some cases were fatal. Monitor patients for hematological toxicity and discontinue if MDS/AML is confirmed. (5.1)oMyelosuppression: TALZENNA may affect hematopoiesis and can cause anemia, neutropenia, and/or thrombocytopenia. (5.2)oEmbryo-Fetal Toxicity: TALZENNA can cause fetal harm. Advise of the potential risk to the fetus and to use effective contraception. (5.3, 8.1, 8.3). oMyelodysplastic Syndrome/Acute Myeloid Leukemia (MDS/AML): MDS/AML occurred in patients exposed to TALZENNA, and some cases were fatal. Monitor patients for hematological toxicity and discontinue if MDS/AML is confirmed. (5.1). oMyelosuppression: TALZENNA may affect hematopoiesis and can cause anemia, neutropenia, and/or thrombocytopenia. (5.2). oEmbryo-Fetal Toxicity: TALZENNA can cause fetal harm. Advise of the potential risk to the fetus and to use effective contraception. (5.3, 8.1, 8.3). 5.1 Myelodysplastic Syndrome/Acute Myeloid Leukemia. Myelodysplastic Syndrome/Acute Myeloid Leukemia (MDS/AML), including cases with fatal outcome, has been reported in patients who received TALZENNA.Overall, MDS/AML has been reported in 0.4% (3 out of 788) of solid tumor patients treated with TALZENNA as single agent in clinical studies. In TALAPRO-2, MDS/AML occurred in out of 511 (0.4%) patients treated with TALZENNA and enzalutamide and in out of 517 (0%) patients treated with placebo and enzalutamide [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)]. The durations of TALZENNA treatment in these patients prior to developing MDS/AML were 0.3, 1, 2, 3, and years. Most of these patients had received previous chemotherapy with platinum agents and/or other DNA damaging agents including radiotherapy.Do not start TALZENNA until patients have adequately recovered from hematological toxicity caused by previous chemotherapy. Monitor blood counts monthly during treatment with TALZENNA. For prolonged hematological toxicities, interrupt TALZENNA and monitor blood counts weekly until recovery. If counts do not recover within weeks, refer the patient to hematologist for further investigations including bone marrow analysis and blood sample for cytogenetics. If MDS/AML is confirmed, discontinue TALZENNA.. 5.2 Myelosuppression Myelosuppression consisting of anemia, neutropenia, and/or thrombocytopenia, have been reported in patients treated with TALZENNA [see Adverse Reactions (6.1)].Grade >=3 anemia, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia were reported, respectively, in 39%, 21%, and 15% of patients receiving TALZENNA as single agent. Discontinuation due to anemia, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia occurred, respectively, in 0.7%, 0.3%, and 0.3% of patients.In TALAPRO-2, Grade >=3 anemia, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia were reported, respectively, in 48%, 19%, and 9% of patients receiving TALZENNA and enzalutamide. Forty-two percent of patients (216/511) required red blood cell transfusion, including 25% (127/511) who required more than one transfusion. Discontinuation due to anemia, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia occurred, respectively, in 8%, 3%, and 0.4% of patients.Withhold TALZENNA until patients have adequately recovered from hematological toxicity caused by previous therapy. Monitor blood counts monthly during treatment with TALZENNA. If hematological toxicities do not resolve within 28 days, discontinue TALZENNA and refer the patient to hematologist for further investigations including bone marrow analysis and blood sample for cytogenetics [see Dosage and Administration (2.5)].. 5.3 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity Based on its mechanism of action and findings from animal data, TALZENNA can cause fetal harm when administered to pregnant woman. In an animal reproduction study, administration of talazoparib to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis caused fetal malformations and structural skeletal variations, and embryo-fetal death at exposures that were 0.24 times the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) in patients receiving the recommended human dose of mg daily. Apprise pregnant women and females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment and for months following the last dose of TALZENNA [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.3), Clinical Pharmacology (12.1)].Based on findings from genetic toxicity and animal reproduction studies, advise male patients with female partners of reproductive potential or who are pregnant to use effective contraception during treatment and for months following the last dose of TALZENNA [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1, 8.3), Nonclinical Toxicology (13.1)].
