The Development of Rucaparib/Rubraca® : A Story of the Synergy Between Science and Serendipity
The poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor, Rubraca®, was given its first accelerated approval for BRCA-mutated ovarian cancer by the FDA at the end of 2016, and further approval by the FDA, EMA and NICE followed. Scientists at Newcastle University initiated the early stages, and several collaborations with scientists in academia and the pharmaceutical industry enabled its final development to the approval stage. Although originally considered as a chemo- or radiosensitiser, its current application is as a single agent exploiting tumour-specific defects in DNA repair. As well as involving intellectual and physical effort, there have been a series of fortuitous occurrences and coincidences of timing that ensured its success. This review describes the history of the relationship between science and serendipity that brought us to the current position.
