The drug, talazoparib, seems to work against cancer in test tubes and animals by preventing DNA repair in damaged cells leading to their death. Investigators do not know if talazoparib combined with irinotecan will work in humans. Talazoparib has been used in only a small number of adults and children, and there is much not yet known about it.
In Arm A of this study, investigators seek to find the safest dose of irinotecan to give with talazoparib to children and young adults. In a phase I study, different dose levels of drug may be tested. The first 2 or 3 patients will be given a dose, and if none of them has a bad side-effect, the next 2 or 3 patients will be given a higher dose. No temozolomide will be given in in Arm A.
The experimental drug combination of talazoparib and irinotecan will be tested in the hopes of finding a treatment that may be effective against recurrent or refractory solid tumors. The goals of study Arm A are:
* To determine whether the combination of talazoparib and irinotecan is a beneficial treatment for your cancer;
* To learn what kind of side effects talazoparib can cause;
* To learn what kind of side effects talazoparib in combination with irinotecan can cause;
* To learn more about the biology of talazoparib in children diagnosed with solid tumors.
The purpose of Arm B is to to find the safest doses of irinotecan and temozolomide to give with talazoparib to children and young adults with a solid malignancy.. Talazoparib belongs to a family of drugs called “poly ADP ribose polymerase or PARP inhibitors.” Irinotecan and temozolomide belong to a family of drugs called “DNA damaging agents.”
There are two arms of this trial, A and B. In this study, investigators hope that irinotecan (administered in Arm A) and irinotecan plus temozolomide (administered in Arm B) will damage the DNA of the cancer cells. Then, talazoparib (which is a PARP inhibitor) will block the repair of the cancer cell’s damaged DNA, causing the cancer cell to die (a process called “apoptosis”).
There are different types of cancers found in children and young adults which appear to be vulnerable to the combination of chemotherapy agents that will be given in this study. Work carried out in the lab show that these agents may be very promising in the treatment of ewing sarcoma, germ cell tumors, wilms tumor, medulloblastoma and possibly neuroblastoma.

INCLUSION CRITERIA:
* Patients with refractory or recurrent solid tumors for which there is no standard therapy are eligible. Patients must have had histologic verification of malignancy at original diagnosis or at the time of relapse.
* 12 months – 25 years at the time of enrollment on study.
* Patients must have a BSA of ≥ 0.42 m^2 at the time of study enrollment due to capsule strength(s).
* Patients must have either measureable or evaluable disease.
* Life expectancy must be at least 8 weeks.
* Performance status: Karnofsky ≥ 50 for patients > 16 years of age; Lansky ≥ 50 for patients ≤ 16 years of age.
* Prior therapy: Patients who have received prior therapy with an irinotecan-based or temozolomide-based regimen are eligible. Patients who have received prior therapy with a PARP inhibitor other than talazoparib are eligible; however, patients who have progressed on a PARP inhibitor plus irinotecan regimen are not eligible.
* Organ function: Must have adequate organ and bone marrow function as defined by the following parameters:
* Patients with solid tumors not metastatic to bone marrow:
* Peripheral absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1,000/mm^3
* Platelet count ≥ 100,000/mm^3 (no transfusion within 7 days of enrollment)
* Hemoglobin ≥ 9 g/dL (with or without support)
* Patients with solid tumors metastatic to bone marrow will be eligible for study but not evaluable for hematologic toxicity. These patients must not be known to be refractory to red cell or platelet transfusions. At least 2 of every cohort of 3 patients must be evaluable for hematologic toxicity. If dose limiting hematologic toxicity is observed at any dose level, all subsequent patients enrolled must be evaluable for hematologic toxicity.
* Adequate renal function defined as: Serum creatinine concentration ≤3x the institutional upper limit of normal (ULN) or creatinine clearance or radioisotope GFR ≥ 70ml/min/1.73m^2.
* Adequate liver function defined as: For Part A participants: normal liver function as defined by SGPT (ALT) concentration ≤5x the institutional ULN, a total bilirubin concentration ≤2x the institutional ULN for age, and serum albumin ≥ 2g/dL.
* Adequate liver function defined as: For Part B participants: normal liver function as defined by SGPT (ALT) concentration < 2.5 times institutional ULN, a total bilirubin concentration ≤ 1.5 times the institutional ULN for age, and serum albumin ≥ 2 g/dL.
* Patients must have fully recovered from the acute toxic effects of chemotherapy, immunotherapy, surgery, or radiotherapy prior to entering this study:
* Myelosuppressive chemotherapy: Patient has not received myelosuppressive chemotherapy within 3 weeks of enrollment onto this study (6 weeks if prior nitrosourea).
* Hematopoietic growth factors: At least 7 days must have elapsed since the completion of therapy with a growth factor. At least 14 days must have elapsed after receiving pegfilgrastim.
* Biologic (anti-neoplastic agent): At least 7 days must have elapsed since completion of therapy with a biologic agent. For agents that have known adverse events occurring beyond 7 days after administration, this period prior to enrollment must be extended beyond the time during which adverse events are known to occur.
* Monoclonal antibodies: At least 3 half-lives must have elapsed since prior therapy that included a monoclonal antibody.
* Radiotherapy: At least 2 weeks must have elapsed since any irradiation; at least 6 weeks must have elapsed since craniospinal RT or substantial bone marrow irradiation.
