“…While designing this study, we referred to our earlier experience of administering single-agent cisplatin at 100 mg/m 2 or single-agent mitomycin C at 10 mg/m 2 to BRCA1 germline mutation carriers. 10,25,26 We assumed that the use of dose-intensive combination of these drugs could increase the chances of obtaining pCR and prevent the selection of resistant clones in BRCA1-associated tumors, thus providing an opportunity for a cure at least to some patients. Overall, the toxicity profile of the combination of cisplatin (100 mg/m 2 ) and mitomycin C (10 mg/m 2 ), given every 4 weeks, looked acceptable (Table 3).…”

“…Response rates in BRCA2 mutation carriers are not yet defined, and this study has not yet been published. To date, the data on the efficacy of singleagent cisplatin in BRCA mutation-associated breast cancers is limited to 16 BRCA1 carriers [9,[28][29][30]. Therefore, we need specifically designed prospective studies assessing the cisplatin efficacy in distinct categories of BRCA carriers before suggesting that we should routinely incorporate platinum agents into neo/adjuvant therapy in BRCA1 carriers.…”

“…Russian scientists were the first to provide independent confirmation of the results of Byrski et al . [42]. Cisplatin is now commonly used for the therapy of BRCA1 -associated tumors in several Russian clinics.…”
