Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to find out whether talazoparib in combination with enzalutamide or talazoparib alone delays cancer progression in people with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who have homologous recombination repair (HRR) mutations and have previously received abiraterone acetate.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)

To compare the efficacy of talazoparib + enzalutamide to talazoparib alone as measured by rPFS as assessed by the Investigator.
From treatment initiation until documented disease progression, death, lost to follow-up, withdrawal, administrative censoring at the time of final analysis, assessed at approximately 42 months from the start of enrollment.
Secondary Outcomes (7)
Time to PSA50
Time from treatment initiation until observed PSA50, assessed at approximately 42 months from the start of enrollment.
Time to PSA Progression
From treatment initiation until documented PSA progression, assessed at approximately 42 months from the start of enrollment.
Quality of Life (QoL) by Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Prostate (FACT-P)
From prior to treatment initiation (screening) until treatment discontinuation, assessed at approximately 42 months from the start of enrollment.
Quality of Life (QoL) by Functional Assessment of Cancer Intervention Therapy-Fatigue Scale (FACIT-Fatigue)
From prior to treatment initiation (screening) until treatment discontinuation, assessed at approximately 42 months from the start of enrollment.
Quality of Life (QoL) by Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Cognitive Function (FACT-Cog)
From prior to treatment initiation (screening) until treatment discontinuation, assessed at approximately 42 months from the start of enrollment.
- +2 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Willing and able to provide, or have a legally authorized representative provide, written informed consent and privacy authorization for the release of personal health information. A signed informed consent must be obtained before screening procedures are performed.
- NOTE: Privacy authorization may be either included in the informed consent or obtained separately.
- Participants ≥ 18 years of age.
- Are willing to be randomized into either study arm and adhere to the study protocol.
- Ability to swallow study capsules and/or tablets whole.
- Are willing to remain on study treatment and to continue undergoing study imaging despite PSA progression unless clinically deteriorating.
- Histological or cytological proof of adenocarcinoma of the prostate without neuroendocrine differentiation or small cell features.
- Presence of a pathogenic homologous recombination repair mutation in at least one of the following genes on tumor tissue or circulating tumor DNA testing: BRCA1, BRCA2, ATM (limited to 15% of enrolled participants), CDK12, CHEK2, PALB2, MLH1, NBN, ATR, FANCA, MRE11A, RAD51C. Assessment of HRR mutation status by germline or somatic testing. All testing must be per Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA)-certified assay and may have occurred at any time prior to or at screening (not required to be completed within the screening window).
- Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) as demonstrated by one of the following:
- Metastatic disease documented by conventional imaging: computed tomography (CT)/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) chest/abdomen/pelvis and bone scan are required to be performed, but metastases do not need to be seen on both modalities. Measurable disease is not required.
- Unequivocal prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography (PET) only defined metastatic disease with negative conventional imaging. PSMA PET imaging is not required to be performed, but may be used to document metastases when relevant.
- Received prior abiraterone acetate with prednisone for mHSPC or locally advanced disease and on which progressed via a minimum of 2 rising PSA levels with a minimum of a 1-week interval between each determination or radiographic progression by any form of imaging.
- Progressive disease at start of treatment and in the setting of medical or surgical castration as defined by 1 or more of the following 4 criteria:
- PSA progression defined as 2 rising PSA levels, above an initial reference value, taken with a minimum of a 1-week interval. If PSA rise is the only indication of progression at start of study treatment, a minimum PSA of 1.0 ng/mL is required and all measured PSA values have to be considered to make a determination of progression.
- Soft tissue disease progression as defined by RECIST 1.1.
- +14 more criteria
You may not qualify if:
- Any other active malignancy at time of first dose of study treatment or diagnosis of another malignancy within 3 years prior to first dose of study treatment that requires active treatment, except for locally curable cancers that have been apparently cured, such as basal or squamous cell skin cancer or superficial bladder cancer.
- Participants who received chemotherapy for castration-sensitive prostate cancer are still eligible provided chemotherapy was completed \>6 months prior to start of study treatment.
- Use of investigational agents for the treatment of prostate cancer within 4 weeks of start of study treatment.
- Prior treatment with a PARP inhibitor.
- Concurrent treatment with crizotinib.
- Prior platinum-based chemotherapy for the treatment of prostate cancer.
- Current or planned use of potent P-gp inhibitors within 7 days prior to randomization. The P-gp inhibitors include: amiodarone, carvedilol, clarithromycin, cobicistat, dronedarone, erythromycin, glecaprevir/pibrentasvir, indinavir, itraconazole, ketoconazole, lapatinib, lopinavir, propafenone, quinidine, ranolazine, ritonavir, saquinavir, sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/voxilaprevir, telaprevir, tipranavir, valspodar, and verapamil.
- Current use of strong cytochrome P450 2C8 (CYP2C8) inhibitors (e.g., clopidogrel, gemfibrozil) and inducers (e.g., rifampin), strong CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., carbamazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin, rifabutin, rifampin, rifapentine and St. John's Wort), moderate CYP3A4 inducers (e.g., bosentan, efavirenz, etravirine, modafinil and nafcillin), or substrates of CYP3A4 (e.g., alfentanil, cyclosporine, dihydroergotamine, ergotamine, fentanyl, pimozide, quinidine, sirolimus and tacrolimus), CYP2C9 (e.g., phenytoin, warfarin), or CYP2C19 (e.g., S-mephenytoin) with a narrow therapeutic index unless considered medically necessary to treat a life-threatening condition.
- Participants treated with strong cytochrome P450 2C8 (CYP2C8) inhibitors (e.g., clopidogrel, gemfibrozil) within 7 days from randomization are not eligible.
- Use of hormonal agents with anti-tumor activity against prostate cancer including 5-alpha reductase inhibitors, androgens (e.g., testosterone), cytoproterone acetate, progestational agents, and estrogens/diethylstilbestrol within 28 days prior to the start of study treatment.
- Use of herbal products or alternative therapies that may decrease PSA levels or that may have hormonal anti-prostate cancer activity (e.g., saw palmetto, PC-SPES, PC-HOPE, St. John's wort, selenium supplements, grape seed extract, etc.) within 28 days of study treatment initiation or plans to initiate treatment with these products/alternative therapies during the entire duration of the study.
- Participants receiving a blood transfusion within 14 days of randomization are not eligible.
- History of seizure or any condition that may predispose to seizure (e.g., prior cortical stroke, significant brain trauma). Also, history of loss of consciousness or transient ischemic attack within 12 months of randomization.
- Medical conditions such as uncontrolled hypertension as indicated by a resting systolic blood pressure \> 160 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure \> 90 mm Hg at screening, uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, and cardiac disease that would preclude participation, as determined by the investigator.
- Untreated known or suspected brain metastases or spinal cord compression or clinically significant malignant epidural disease.
