Abstract excerpt
The best predictive marker for the expected efficacy of PARP inhibitor therapy is mutations in BRCA1/2 or other homologous recombination repair genes. These tests are part of routine molecular pathology diagnostics. Among 281 patients with prostate adenocarcinoma, somatic pathogenic mutations in one of these genes were identified in 21.4% of patients. In 28.5% of the patients, the test was unsuccessful; the main...
