Combinatorial Therapy of High Dose Vitamin C and PARP Inhibitors in DNA Repair Deficiency: A Series of 8 Patients.
Mutlu DemirayPublished in: Integrative cancer therapies (2021)
Our 8 patient case study shows that IVC could be a plausible additional therapy for HRR deficiency. Although the single agent PARPi therapy is effective for metastatic disease, an overall survival (OS) advantage has not been demonstrated. Our results suggest that adding IVC can improve PARPi therapy outcomes. To fully endorse the results stated above, combinatorial therapy of intravenous high dose vitamin C and PARP inhibitors needs to be reviewed in broader cohorts of patients.
