Homologous Recombination is a type of genetic recombination in which genetic information is exchanged between two similar or identical molecules of double-stranded nucleic acids.
Homologous Recombination Repair (HRR) is a double-strand break DNA repair process that aids in maintaining genomic integrity. Mutations leading to Homologous Recombination Deficiency (HRD) increase the tumor sensitivity to platinum-based chemotherapy and PARP inhibitors.
The HRR (Somatic) Cancer Gene Panel focuses on 15 genes (including BRCA1 and BRCA2) associated with DNA repair mechanisms to determine the cause of Deficient Homologous Recombination Repair (dHRR) cancers. Guidelines recommend HRR Somatic gene panel testing to identify patients who will benefit from PARP inhibitors.

Benefits of HRR (Somatic) Gene Panel Testing
Personalized treatment decisions
The information provided by this gene panel testing allows for personalized treatment decisions based on the genomic characteristics of the tumor. This approach improves treatment outcomes by selecting therapies that are more likely to be effective and minimizing the use of treatments that are unlikely to provide benefit.
Predicting treatment response
Patients with dHRR cancers, characterized by HRD-associated mutations, often exhibit increased sensitivity to specific treatments. By identifying these mutations through this gene panel test, oncologists can predict the patient’s potential response to these targeted therapies.
Guiding the use of PARP inhibitors
This gene panel testing helps identify patients with dHRR cancers, making them potential candidates for PARP inhibitor therapy. This targeted approach improves treatment outcomes by directing patients toward therapies that are more likely to be effective.
Clinical guidelines recommendation
This gene panel testing is recommended by clinical guidelines for identifying patients who will benefit from PARP inhibitors. These guidelines are evidence-based recommendations developed by field experts designed to optimize patient care.
