Abstract excerpt
Somatic/germline BRCA1/2 mutations (m)/(likely) pathogenic variants (PV) (s/gBRCAm) remain the best predictive biomarker for PARP inhibitor efficacy. As >95% of high-grade serous ovarian cancers (HGSOC) have a somatic TP53m, combined tumor-based BRCA1/2 (tBRCA) and TP53 mutation testing (tBRCA/TP53m) may improve the quality of results in somatic BRCAm identification and interpretation of the 'second hit' event,...
