PARP Inhibitors in Prostate Cancer.
Treatment of metastatic prostate cancer has evolved significantly over the past decade. Palliative therapy has, historically, consisted of androgen deprivation, chemotherapy and different radiation therapy approaches. More recently, breakthrough therapy with the use of poly-ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors has led to significant improvement in the outcome of patients with metastatic prostate cancer who harbor certain genetic mutations. This concise review focuses on the 3 PARP inhibitors that have shown activity in metastatic prostate cancer.

Poly (ADP-Ribose) polymerase inhibitor MK-4827 together with radiation as a novel therapy for metastatic neuroblastoma.
To assess poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor MK-4827 together with radiation for the treatment of neuroblastoma.. Clonogenic survival assays were used to assess MK-4827, radiation and combination thereof in four neuroblastoma cell lines. In vivo efficacy was tested in a murine xenograft model of metastatic neuroblastoma. In vivo targeted inhibition and biological effects included measurement of cleaved caspase-3, γ-H2AX, and Ki 67 by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and poly-ADP-ribose by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay.. Treatment of neuroblastoma cell lines reduced clonogenicity and resulted in additive effects with radiation. In vivo treatment with MK-4827 and radiation prolonged survival (p<0.01) compared to single modalities. In vivo superiority of MK-4827 plus radiation was further documented by significant elevations of cleaved caspase-3 and γ-H2AX in tumors from the combination group compared to single modality cohorts.. Combination of MK-4827 and radiation might provide effective therapy for children with high-risk neuroblastoma.
