STUDY OF PREDICTIVE VALUE OF RAD51 EXPRESSION FOR THE EFFECTIVENESS OF PLATINUM-BASED THERAPY OF HIGH-GRADE SEROUS OVARIAN CARCINOMA
Background. The search for novel markers of predictive significance is an important issue in the management of ovarian cancer (OC) patients. Recently, the expression of the RAD51 protein, involved in homologous DNA repair has been shown to be predictive of platinum chemotherapy response in OC patients. Aim. To establish the relationship between the level of RAD51 protein expression in patients with high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (SOC) after neoadjuvant platinum chemotherapy and the frequency of recurrence, dis …
