Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Many triple-negative breast cancers (TNBCs) show impaired breast cancer susceptibility gene I (BRCA1) function, called BRCAness. BRCAness tumors may show similar sensitivities to anticancer drugs as tumors with BRCA1 mutations. In this study, we investigated the association of BRCA mutations or BRCAness with drug sensitivities in TNBC. METHODS: BRCAness was evaluated as BRCA1-like scores, using...
