First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at whether a blood test can predict how well certain cancer drugs (PARP inhibitors) work in people with advanced breast, prostate, ovarian, or pancreatic cancer. Researchers will collect blood and tumor samples from 300 adults to analyze cancer cells and their DNA repair abilities. The goal is to see if these tests can help doctors choose the most effective treatment for each patient.

Active substance

blood sampling and tumor sampling

What this could lead to

If successful, this could lead to a simple blood test that helps doctors choose the right treatment for patients with advanced cancers.

What could go wrong

This is an early, proof-of-concept study with no treatment being tested. The blood test may not reliably predict treatment response, and results may not apply to all patients.
