Concordance of BRCA mutation detection in tumor versus blood, and frequency of bi-allelic loss of BRCA in tumors from patients in the phase III SOLO2 trial

TL;DR: Very high concordance was demonstrated between tumor and germline BRCA testing, supporting wider implementation of tumor testing in ovarian cancer as mentioned in this paper, which suggests routine testing for BRCa zygosity is not required in this population and reflects BRCAs loss being a driver of tumorigenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of candidate homologous repair deficiency genes in a clinical trial of olaparib in patients (pts) with platinum-sensitive, relapsed serous ovarian cancer (PSR SOC).

TL;DR: Exploratory characterization of genetic changes in tumors from PSR SOC pts to determine the frequency and co-occurrence patterns of mutations in BRCA1/2 and other HRR genes, and the presence of these mutations in pts with a long-term response (LTR; treatment duration >24 mo).
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Abstract LB-249: Examination of analytical factors impacting concordance of plasma-tumor testing by next-generation sequencing (NGS)

TL;DR: Assay analytical variance and the impact of reporting false positive variants are key factors that need to be addressed as plasma-based NGS testing is more widely incorporated into translational and clinical research.
