BRCAness profile of sporadic ovarian cancer predicts disease recurrence.
<h4>Background</h4>The consequences of defective homologous recombination (HR) are not understood in sporadic ovarian cancer, nor have the potential role of HR proteins other than BRCA1 and BRCA2 been clearly defined. However, it is clear that defects in HR and other DNA repair pathways...
