First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looked at whether a test called RAD51-foci can predict how well the drug olaparib works in people with advanced HER2-negative breast cancer who have certain gene mutations (BRCA1, BRCA2, PALB2, RAD51C, or RAD51D). About 65 participants received olaparib, and researchers measured tumor response. The goal is to better match patients to effective treatment and avoid unnecessary side effects.
