Lung cancer clue: could a DNA glitch guide future treatments?
NCT ID NCT07303218
First seen Jan 04, 2026 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 18 times
Summary
This study examines whether a specific DNA repair problem, called homologous recombination deficiency (HRD), is common in a certain type of advanced lung cancer (EGFR-mutated NSCLC). Researchers will analyze tumor samples from 100 patients to see if HRD is linked to how the cancer behaves or responds to treatment. The goal is to better understand this cancer subgroup and explore whether they might benefit from PARP inhibitor drugs in the future.
