Correct answer: EOffer talazoparib–enzalutamide; TA1130 does not require an HRR mutation

TA1130 positions talazoparib plus enzalutamide in untreated metastatic hormone-relapsed disease when chemotherapy is not clinically indicated and abiraterone is not tolerated or is clinically precluded. The final NICE recommendation is not restricted to an HRR-mutated subgroup and does not require prior enzalutamide failure.

Reference: NICE TA1130: talazoparib with enzalutamide. https://www.nice.org.uk/guidance/TA1130/chapter/1-recommendations
