Abstract:Personalised oncology is at the forefront of cancer research. The goal of personalised oncology is to selectively kill cancer cells while minimising side effects on normal tissue. This can be achieved by identifying and targeting cancer vulnerabilities that distinguish it from normal cells. Many cancers are deficient in high‐fidelity DNA repair pathways that maintain genomic stability, such as homologous recombination (HR). Such cancers are highly sensitive to targeted therapies that induce DNA damage or inhib… Show more
