Development of malignancies in BRCA1 germ-line mutation carriers usually involves somatic inactivation of the remaining BRCA1 allele. This feature leads to a tumor-specific deficiency of double-strand DNA break repair and underlies pronounced sensitivity of BRCA1-driven cancers to cisplatin. BRCA1-specific activity of cisplatin has been repeatedly demonstrated in cell culture and animal experiments;...
Ovarian carcinomas (OC) arising in BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers demonstrate pronounced sensitivity to platinum-based therapy due to deficiency of double-strand break DNA repair. However, the choice of subsequent treatment lines for this category of women remains complicated. We considered mitomycin C for heavily pretreated hereditary OC patients, based on multiple evidence for BRCA-specific activity...
