Background Results Figure 4: gBRCA1/2 mutation status and pCR rates overall and in subgroups of HR- and HR+ breast cancer per treatment arm The phase II GeparOla study randomized patients with homologous recombination Figure 2: Flow diagram . The gBRCA1/2 mutation prevalence was 56.2% deficient (HRD), HER2-negative early breast cancer to receive neoadjuvant treatment with (59/105) overall, 72.4% (21/29) in HR+ and 50.0% A) PO arm B)B )PCb PCb arm paclitaxel plus either olaparib (PO) or carboplatin (PCb) prior to epirubicin (38/76) in HR- breast cancer. mt wt mt wt /cyclophosphamide (EC). We determined pathological complete response (pCR, ypT0/is .

The definition of mutation status contains Conclusions pathogenic mutations on the genes BRCA1/2 regardless of mutations in 16 non BRCA1/2 p=0.412). genes. The pCR rates were compared using a two-sided continuity corrected χ2-test. Regardless of the treatment arm, pCR rates were Even in patients with HRD tumors, germline BRCA1/2 mutation status predicts therapy Figure 1: Study design higher in patients with HR- than in patients with outcome. For patients without gBRCA1/2 mutations, numerically higher pCR rates were HR+ breast cancer . observed in the PO arm vs the PCb arm. Overall results should be interpreted with caution due to limited sample size but may guide future clinical trials.
