Title: The search for genomic biomarkers of response to immunotherapy in ovarian cancer
Abstract: Immune checkpoint blockade has been ineffective in ovarian cancer, and there is an ongoing effort to identify biomarkers of therapeutic benefit. Despite promising preclinical data, a substudy of the IMagyn050 trial found that patients with homologous recombination deficient tumors did not have improved progression-free survival with the addition of the PD-L1 inhibitor atezolizumab.
