Frequency and prognostic value of mutations associated with the homologous recombination DNA repair pathway in a large pan cancer cohort

TL;DR: The rates of deleterious mutations affecting genes associated with the homologous recombination pathway may be underrepresented in a wide range of human cancers, and several of these genes warrant further and more focused investigation, particularly in the setting of PARP inhibition and HR deficiency.

Next-generation sequencing-based BRCA testing on cytological specimens from ovarian cancer ascites reveals high concordance with tumour tissue analysis.

TL;DR: BRCA test may be performed on ovarian cancer ascites, reproducing BRCA1/2 tumour status and representing a useful tool for clinical decision-making, as well as investigating the feasibility of next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based BRCa tumour test on cytological specimens from ovarian cancer Ascites.

Targeting the DNA damage response: PARP inhibitors and new perspectives in the landscape of cancer treatment

TL;DR: In this paper, the main DDR pathways, explain the current role of PARP inhibitors in cancer therapy and illustrate new therapeutic strategies targeting the DDR, focusing on the combinations ofPARP inhibitors with other agents and on cell-cycle checkpoint inhibitors.

PARP Inhibitors in Gynecologic Cancers: What Is the Next Big Development?

TL;DR: The role of PARPi in gynecologic malignancies is most established in ovarian cancer, but there are also promising applications in uterine and cervical cancer.

Niraparib Maintenance Therapy in Platinum-Sensitive, Recurrent Ovarian Cancer

TL;DR: Among patients with platinum-sensitive, recurrent ovarian cancer, the median duration of progression-free survival was significantly longer amongThose receiving niraparib than among those receiving placebo, regardless of the presence or absence of gBRCA mutations or HRD status, with moderate bone marrow toxicity.
