Abstract excerpt
ESR1 mutations are the leading cause of endocrine therapy resistance and progression in estrogen receptor (ER)-positive metastatic breast cancer. ESR1 mutations are detected in ∼50% of patients with metastatic breast cancer, and identification of effective targeted therapeutics is critically needed. In this study, we identified enrichment of dysregulated replication stress and DNA damage responses in multiple...
