Pregnancy-Lactation

Pregnancy Based on findings from animal studies and its mechanism of action, embryo-fetal harm may occur when administered to a pregnant woman No data available on use in pregnant women to inform a drug-associated risk Recommend a pregnancy test for females of reproductive potential prior to initiating treatment Animal data In an animal reproduction study, administration of talazoparib to pregnant rats during 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 1 mg qDay Contraception Females: Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment and for ?7 months following the last dose Males: Based on genotoxicity and animal reproduction studies, advise males with female partners of reproductive potential and pregnant partners to use effective contraception during treatment and for ?4 months following the last dose Infertility Based on animal studies, impaired fertility in males of reproductive potential may occur Lactation There are no data on the presence of talazoparib in human milk, the drug effects on milk production, or on the breastfed child Because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in a breastfed child, advise lactating women not to breastfeed during treatment and for ?1 month after the final dose

Interactions

In clinical studies, coadministration with P-gp inhibitors (ie, amiodarone, carvedilol, clarithromycin, itraconazole, verapamil) resulted in an ~45% increase in talazoparib exposure and an increase in the rate of talazoparib dose reduction When coadministering with P-gp inhibitors not listed above, monitor for potential increased adverse reactions
