RAD51 as a functional biomarker for homologous recombination deficiency in cancer: a promising addition to the HRD toolbox?
16 Dec 2021
Abstract excerpt
Introduction Carcinomas with defects in the homologous recombination (HR) pathway are sensitive to PARP inhibitors (PARPi). A robust method to identify HR-deficient (HRD) carcinomas is therefore of utmost clinical importance. Currently, available DNA-based HRD tests either scan HR-related genes such as BRCA1 and BRCA2 for the presence of pathogenic variants or identify HRD-related genomic scars or mutational...
