TLDR
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.

Tumor BRCA Testing in High Grade Serous Carcinoma: Mutation Rates and Optimal Tissue Requirements

TL;DR: A 17% tumor BRCA mutation rate is shown, with an overall success rate of 86%, in patients diagnosed with tubo-ovarian high-grade serous carcinoma, and optimal tumors measure ≥5 mm in size with at least 20% cellularity.

Age of ovarian cancer diagnosis among BRIP1, RAD51C, and RAD51D mutation carriers identified through multi-gene panel testing.

TL;DR: In this article, the age at ovarian cancer diagnosis was older for women with pathogenic variants (PVs) in moderate penetrance ovarian cancer-risk genes, suggesting that it is safe to delay risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy (RRSO) until age 45-50 in RAD51D PV carriers and possibly until age 50-55 in BRIP and RAD51C PV carriers.

Germline and Somatic BRCA1/2 Gene Mutational Status and Clinical Outcomes in Epithelial Peritoneal, Ovarian, and Fallopian Tube Cancer: Over a Decade of Experience in a Single Institution in Korea.

TL;DR: BRCA1/2 mutations are frequently observed in patients with epithelial POFTCs, and such patients showed better PFS than did those harboring wild-type BRCA 1/2, according to multivariate analyses.

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.
