Journal ArticleDOI

Non-invasive analysis of acquired resistance to cancer therapy by sequencing of plasma DNA

TL;DR: Serial analysis of cancer genomes in plasma constitutes a new paradigm for the study of clonal evolution in human cancers, establishing proof of principle that exome-wide analysis of circulating tumour DNA could complement current invasive biopsy approaches to identify mutations associated with acquired drug resistance in advanced cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Olaparib tablets as maintenance therapy in patients with platinum-sensitive, relapsed ovarian cancer and a BRCA1/2 mutation (SOLO2/ENGOT-Ov21): a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial

Eric Pujade-Lauraine, +110 more
- 01 Sep 2017 - 
TL;DR: Olaparib tablet maintenance treatment provided a significant progression-free survival improvement with no detrimental effect on quality of life in patients with platinum-sensitive, relapsed ovarian cancer and a BRCA1/2 mutation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Noninvasive Identification and Monitoring of Cancer Mutations by Targeted Deep Sequencing of Plasma DNA

TL;DR: Levels of mutant alleles reflected the clinical course of the disease and its treatment—for example, stabilized disease was associated with low allelic frequency, whereas patients at relapse exhibited a rise in frequency, and TAm-Seq will need to achieve a more sensitive detection limit to identify mutations in the plasma of patients with less advanced cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rucaparib maintenance treatment for recurrent ovarian carcinoma after response to platinum therapy (ARIEL3): a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial

Robert L. Coleman, +116 more
- 28 Oct 2017 - 
TL;DR: This trial assessed rucaparib versus placebo after response to second-line or later platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with high-grade, recurrent, platinum-sensitive ovarian carcinoma harbouring a BRCA mutation or high percentage of genome-wide loss of heterozygosity.
