New test could unlock precision treatment for tough breast cancers

NCT ID NCT05340413

Summary

This study tested whether a specific lab test, called the RAD51-foci score, could predict which patients with advanced HER2-negative breast cancer would benefit most from the drug olaparib. It involved 65 patients, some with known genetic mutations and some without, to see if the test could identify good candidates for the drug beyond just genetic testing. The goal was to find a better way to match the right patients to this targeted therapy to help control their cancer.
