FDA approves niraparib combo for BRCA2-mutated prostate cancer, improving progression-free survival.
The FDA has approved niraparib combined with abiraterone acetate and prednisone for adults with metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer and BRCA2 mutations, based on the AMPLITUDE trial.
Patients with BRCA2 mutations had significantly improved radiographic progression-free survival, with median rPFS not reached versus 26 months in the control group.
The treatment reduced disease progression risk by 54% and delayed symptomatic progression.
No benefit was seen in patients without BRCA2 mutations.
The regimen carries warnings for serious side effects, including myelosuppression and liver toxicity, and is recommended only for those with confirmed BRCA2 mutations via an FDA-approved test.
