Huge congratulations to my mentor and friend @neerajaiims on his election to the @ASCO Nominating Committee. A true leader whose humility, vision, and mentorship continue to inspire so many. @OncoAlert https://t.co/65SdS1eUW7
Delayed genomic testing limits access to life-prolonging cancer treatments. @chadihcmd@huntsmancancer joins @neerajaiims to discuss the utilization of next-generation sequencing in nearly 200,000 patients with common cancers having approved targeted therapies. #WatchNow on UroToday > https://t.co/PL7OXCP8sh
Excited to be part of @Uromigos LIVE & UnpluggD ‘25! Can’t wait for the lively, engaging, unfiltered, and insightful conversations that make this meeting so special @OncoAlert

🧬 PARP inhibitors: from ovarian cancer to a pan-tumor approach — Landmark phase III trials transforming care in HRR-mutated tumors.
@chadihcmd@ggebraelmd@nsayeghmd@ziremozay@SWOGadvocate@JenniferLitton@umangtalking@neerajaiims
📌 FDA/EMA approvals based on pivotal data:
🟣 Ovary – SOLO-1/2, PRIMA, PAOLA-1, ARIEL3 (maintenance & 1L combo)
🩷 Breast – OlympiA, EMBRACA (gBRCA early & metastatic)
🟡 Prostate – PROfound, PROpel, MAGNITUDE, TALAPRO-2 (mCRPC)
🟢 Pancreas – POLO (gBRCA mPDAC maintenance)
💡 Mechanism: Exploits DNA repair defects → synthetic lethality
📈 Benefit: OS & PFS gains across tumor types
🔍 Trends: Expanding into combinations (IO, ADCs), early stages, and basket trials
💡 Main messages:
1️⃣ Synthetic lethality is now a validated therapeutic principle across tumor types.
2️⃣ HRR testing (BRCA1/2, ATM, PALB2…) should be integrated into routine work-up.
3️⃣ Maintenance strategies prolong disease control and delay chemo.
4️⃣ Combinations with IO & ADCs may expand benefit beyond BRCA+ disease.
🩺 Clinical implications:
✔ Test early → identify candidates before progression.
✔ Cross-tumor genomic panels are now standard in advanced disease.
✔ Watch for hematologic toxicity, fatigue & GI AEs — require proactive management.

Real-world data show that only 30% to 40% of patients with the most common cancers receive NGS testing.
🗨️ “The ultimate goal would be for all patients to receive NGS testing earlier in their disease course," - @chadihcmd of @huntsmancancer told Healio.
