After listening to this podcast, are you more confident in sequencing therapies for patients with mPC according to HRR mutation status?

Episode 10. Alicia Morgans and Gunhild von Amsberg reflect on real-world challenges of sequencing therapies for mPC, including how HRR mutation type – especially BRCA1/2 – influences treatment choices and prognosis. They discuss when retesting is clinically justified and the complexities of interpreting multi-mutation reports. Von Amsberg shares insights from pivotal trials like TRITON and BRCAAway. The conversation centers on integrating real-world data (RWD) with clinical trial evidence, prioritizing actionable findings in multi-mutation reports, and supporting patients through shared decision-making and genetic counseling.
