About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for HRD 100 Gene Expression High focused on measuring Talazoparib, HRD 100 gene, Triple Negative Breast Cancer, BRCA 1/2
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

- Have availability of 10 ml blood for germline BRCA testing if previous record of germline BRCA mutation status is not available.
- If germline BRCA 1 or 2 (1/2) mutation positive, should be among the 5 patients (in Stage I) or 9 patients (in Stage II) with germline BRCA 1/2 mutation positive.
- Can provide archival tumor tissue sample. Note: Formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue blocks or tissues sections (>30% neoplastic cells, 2 x 10µm tissue curls each in 2 sterile 1.5ml-micro-centrifuge tubes) and 10 unstained slides are needed.
- Can provide one 10ml and one 6-ml blood samples for future biomedical research.

- Has Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1 (Appendix 1).
Has adequate organ function as defined below: • Serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 2.5 ×upper limit of normal (ULN); if liver function abnormalities are due to hepatic metastasis, then AST and ALT ≤ 5 × ULN
- Total serum bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN (≤ 3 × ULN for Gilbert's syndrome)
- Calculated creatinine clearance ≥ 30 mL/min by local laboratory or Cockcroft-Gault formula
- Hemoglobin ≥ 9.0 g/dL with last transfusion at least 14 days before randomization
- Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1500/mm3

- Has other malignancy that is either active or for which patients have received treatment within the last 5 years excluding non-melanoma skin cancer and carcinoma in situ of cervix
- Have received platinum may not have relapsed within 6 months of the last dose of prior platinum therapy. For patients who have received platinum, at least 6 months must have elapsed between the last dose of platinum-based treatment and enrollment.
- Is currently participating and receiving study therapy, or has participated in a study of an investigational agent and received study therapy or used an investigational device within 4 weeks of the first dose of study drug.
- Has a known history of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV).
- Has known active Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C.
- Has an active infection requiring systemic therapy.
- Has significant cardiovascular disease, such as: History of myocardial infarction, acute coronary syndrome or coronary angioplasty/stenting/bypass grafting within the last 6 months;
- Has known psychiatric or substance abuse disorders that would interfere with cooperation with the requirements of the study.
- Is pregnant or breastfeeding, or expecting to conceive children within the projected duration of the study, starting with the screening visit through at least 7 months after the last dose of study drug.

Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
Talazoparib Single Agent
The study will have 1 treatment group. Patients will receive a single oral dose of talazoparib (Talzenna®) 1mg/day daily for 28-day cycles until progressive disease, limiting toxicities, intercurrent medical issues, patient withdrawal of consent, death, or end of trial whichever occurs first. Treatment will be administered on an outpatient basis. Talazoparib should be taken orally once daily (i.e., continuous daily dosing) at approximately the same time each day (preferably in the morning). Talazoparib will be swallowed whole and may be taken with or without food. If a subject vomits a dose, the subject should not take a second dose that calendar day. The subject should resume daily dosing the next day. Daily dosing of talazoparib can be interrupted for recovery from toxicity for up to 28 days. For interruptions longer than 28 days, treatment at the same or a reduced dose can be considered if the evidence of response or clinical benefit to talazoparib is noted.
