Abstract: Background Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) have demonstrated efficacy in treating solid tumors with Homologous Recombination Deficiency (HRD), the inability to repair DNA double-stranded breaks through the Homologous Recombination Repair (HRR) pathway. Specific genetic and… read more here.
