In this heavily pretreated mCRC population, a combination of veliparib and temozolomide was well tolerated with temozolomide doses up to 200 mg/m2 /d, and it was clinically active. PARP inhibitor-based therapy merits further exploration in patients with mCRC. Cancer 2018;124:2337-46. © 2018 American Cancer Society.
