Vivek Subbiah: How does PARP Inhibitor affect BARD1-Mutated Neuroblastoma?

Vivek Subbiah shared on LinkedIn:

“BARD1 = encodes the BRCA1-associated RING domain 1 protein which forms the BRCA1-BARD1 heterodimer to repair DNA double-strand breaks by homologous recombination.

Interesting report published in NEJM.

Clinical Response to a PARP Inhibitor and Chemotherapy in a Child with BARD1-Mutated Refractory Neuroblastoma-

  • Loss of BARD1 has been shown to confer homologous recombination repair (HRR) deficiency in adult cancer cell lines.
  • FDA approved olaparib, a PARPi, for treating metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer harboring mutations in HRR genes including BARD1.

Response to PARP Inhibition in BARD1-Mutated Refractory Neuroblastoma‘”
