Abstract PARP inhibitors (PARPi) are effective in tumors with homologous recombination repair (HRR) deficiency (HRD), typically identified by germline/tumor mutations. However, genetic testing may miss intrinsic PARPi sensitivity and resistance. We evaluated strategies to improve detection and longitudinal monitoring of HRD across >500 tumor samples and >20 paired liquid biopsies, integrating genetic, genomic, and functional readouts.

PRECISE is a European initiative to move cancer research beyond descriptive atlases toward predictive, mechanistically informed models of tumor vulnerability. By integrating patient cohorts, disease-relevant model systems, perturbation biology, multimodal profiling and artificial intelligence-driven inference, the PRECISE consortium aims to learn generalizable and predictive rules that govern genetic dependencies and synthetic lethality.
