Baseline clinical predictors of antitumor response to the PARP inhibitor olaparib in germline BRCA1/2 mutated patients with advanced ovarian cancer.
(2017-07)
Background The PARP inhibitor olaparib was recently granted Food and Drug Administration (FDA) accelerated approval in patients with advanced BRCA1/2 mutation ovarian cancer. However, antitumor responses are observed in ...
Target-based therapeutic matching of phase I trials in patients with metastatic breast cancer in a tertiary referral centre.
(2018-10-15)
Background Greater understanding of the molecular classification of breast cancer has permitted the development of rational drug design strategies. In a phase I clinical trial setting, molecular profiling with next-generation ...
PARP Inhibitors for Advanced Prostate Cancer: Validating Predictive Biomarkers.
(ELSEVIER, 2019-10-01)
A decade of clinical development of PARP inhibitors in perspective.
(ELSEVIER, 2019-09-01)
Genomic instability is a hallmark of cancer, and often is the result of altered DNA repair capacities in tumour cells. DNA damage repair defects are common in different cancer types; these alterations can also induce ...
Homologous recombination DNA repair deficiency and PARP inhibition activity in primary triple negative breast cancer.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-05-29)
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) encompasses molecularly different subgroups, with a subgroup harboring evidence of defective homologous recombination (HR) DNA repair. Here, within a phase 2 window clinical trial, RIO ...
DNA Repair in Prostate Cancer: Biology and Clinical Implications.
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2017-03-01)
CONTEXT: For more precise, personalized care in prostate cancer (PC), a new classification based on molecular features relevant for prognostication and treatment stratification is needed. Genomic aberrations in the DNA ...
CRISPR screens identify genomic ribonucleotides as a source of PARP-trapping lesions.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-07-12)
The observation that BRCA1- and BRCA2-deficient cells are sensitive to inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) has spurred the development of cancer therapies that use these inhibitors to target deficiencies in ...
Carboplatin in BRCA1/2-mutated and triple-negative breast cancer BRCAness subgroups: the TNT Trial.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-04-30)
Germline mutations in BRCA1/2 predispose individuals to breast cancer (termed germline-mutated BRCA1/2 breast cancer, gBRCA-BC) by impairing homologous recombination (HR) and causing genomic instability. HR also repairs ...
CSN and CAVA: variant annotation tools for rapid, robust next-generation sequencing analysis in the clinical setting.
(BMC, 2015-07-28)
BACKGROUND: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) offers unprecedented opportunities to expand clinical genomics. It also presents challenges with respect to integration with data from other sequencing methods and historical ...
Chemosensitivity profiling of osteosarcoma tumour cell lines identifies a model of BRCAness.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2018-07-13)
Osteosarcoma (OS) is an aggressive sarcoma, where novel treatment approaches are required. Genomic studies suggest that a subset of OS, including OS tumour cell lines (TCLs), exhibit genomic loss of heterozygosity (LOH) ...
