Patient stratification based on DNA repair functionality for cancer precision medicine
FY 2019-20
Summary
Resistance to targeted therapies in an already enriched population is common. Consequently, a proportion of patients receive personalised cancer-treatments that are not effective and the disease progresses to a more advanced stage. Our main goal is to improve the selection of patients who are candidates to a targeted therapy. Specifically, this project will impact on refining the patient population that will mostly benefit from PARP inhibitors and thereby recommend the best treatment option and reduce health costs.
