Loss of excision repair cross-complementation group 1 (ERCC1), frequently found in lung cancer, and mutations in breast cancer type 1/2 susceptibility genes (<i>BRCA1/2</i>), often found in ovarian, breast and prostate cancers, confer sensitivity to poly-(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors (PARPi). Our work, and that of others, shows that PARPi selectively trigger tumor cell-autonomous immune phenotypes in <i>ERCC1-</i> or <i>BRCA</i>-defective contexts. This suggests that PARPi, used in appropri ...[more]
