Purpose Durable and long-term responses to the poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor olaparib are observed in patients without BRCA1/2 mutations. However, beyond BRCA1/2 mutations, there are no approved biomarkers for olaparib in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC). To determine mechanisms of durable response and resistance to olaparib therapy, we performed an analysis of HGSOC tumors from three patients...
