Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) is a predictive biomarker for response to PARP inhibitors and platinum-based therapies in prostate cancer (PCa). However, current diagnostic approaches, often limited to BRCA1/2 mutation testing or genomic scars, fail to capture the full spectrum of HRD. Tissue-based testing is further hampered by tumour heterogeneity and biopsy limitations in patients with...
