\nStudy conducted with Severance Hospital shows whole-genome sequencing-based HRD phenotyping was associated with longer progression-free survival in patients receiving PARP inhibitor maintenance therapy<\/i><\/p><\/a><\/a>

SAN DIEGO & SEOUL, South Korea--(BUSINESS WIRE)--#CancerGenome<\/a>--Inocras, a bioinformatics-led company harnessing the power of whole-genome data and proprietary analytics to deliver curated insights, today announced that new real-world evidence evaluating whole-genome sequencing-based homologous recombination deficiency phenotyping has been accepted for online publication at the 2026 American Society of Clinical Oncology Annual Meeting.<\/p>

\nThe abstract, titled \u201cWhole-genome HRD phenotyping as a predictor of PARP inhibitor benefit in first-line maintenance high-grade serous ovarian cancer,\u201d reports findings from a collaborative study between Inocras and the Severance Hospital gynecologic oncology team, one of Inocras\u2019s major clinical partners in Korea.<\/p>

\nUsing matched tumor-normal whole-genome sequencing through CancerVision, investigators evaluated 84 patients with high-grade serous ovarian cancer who received PARP inhibitor maintenance therapy in either the first-line or second-line maintenance setting. The study assessed whether WGS-based HRD indicators, or CancerVision\u2019s WGS-HRD, correlated with clinical outcomes following PARP inhibitor therapy.<\/p>

\nPatients classified as WGS-HRD-positive had a longer median progression-free survival than those classified as WGS-HRD-negative, with an overall mPFS of 27.5 months versus 12.0 months<\/b>. The association was most pronounced in the first-line maintenance setting, where WGS-HRD positive patients had an mPFS of 44.2 months versus 10.0 months<\/b>. In the second-line maintenance setting, no significant difference in survival was observed based on HRD status, suggesting the predictive value of WGS-HRD may be strongest in earlier treatment settings.<\/p>

\nThe study also found that 21.4% of patients were WGS-HRD positive despite lacking BRCA mutations<\/b>, underscoring the potential of WGS-HRD to identify patients who may not be captured by BRCA testing alone. Compared with the conventional scarHRD method, WGS-HRD demonstrated higher predictive value in clinical prognosis and PARP inhibitor responsiveness. The study adds to Inocras\u2019 growing body of evidence supporting CancerVision as a comprehensive whole-genome sequencing platform for precision oncology.<\/p>

\n\u201cThese findings provide important real-world evidence that whole-genome HRD scoring can advance how we identify ovarian cancer patients most likely to benefit from PARP inhibitor maintenance therapy,\u201d said Jehee Suh, CEO of Inocras. \u201cCancerVision is a comprehensive WGS-based clinical analysis platform, and these data highlight its potential to enhance clinical decision-making.\u201d<\/p>

\n\u201cThe first-line maintenance findings are particularly encouraging because they suggest that WGS-based HRD assessment may refine current BRCA- and genomic-scar\u2013based approaches for identifying patients most likely to derive durable benefit from PARP inhibitor maintenance therapy,\u201d said Joonoh Lim, Physician Scientist at Inocras, who led the study in collaboration with Severance Hospital. \u201cThese findings add to the growing evidence base for whole-genome HRD assessment, and we look forward to prospective validation.\u201d<\/p>
