Tumors with an impaired ability to repair DNA double-strand breaks by homologous recombination, including those with alterations in breast cancer 1 and 2 (BRCA1 and BRCA2) genes, are very sensitive to blocking DNA single-strand repair by inhibition of the poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) enzyme. This provides the basis for a synthetic deadly strategy in the treatment of different types of cancer, such as prostate cancer (PCa). The phase 3 PROfound study was the first to lead to olaparib approval in patients with metastatic castration resistant PCa (mCRPC) and BRCA genes mutations. In recent years, the benefit of combination therapy consisted of a PARP inhibitor (PARPi) plus an androgen receptor signalling inhibitor (ARSi), was evaluated as first-line treatment of mCRPC, regardless of the mutational state of genes, participating in the homologous recombination repair (HRR). This review explores the role of PARPi in PCa and analyses the data of latest clinical trials exploring the PARPi—ARSi combinations, and how these results could change our clinical practice. |
