Chlorambucil targets BRCA1/2‐deficient tumours and counteracts PARP inhibitor resistance

Due to compromised homologous recombination (HR) repair, BRCA1- and BRCA2-mutated tumours accumulate DNA damage and genomic rearrangements conducive of tumour progression. To identify drugs that target specifically BRCA2-deficient cells, we screened a chemical library containing compounds in clinica...
