Abstract:PARP inhibitors (PARPi) play an increasing role in the treatment of ovarian cancer (OC). However, more than 40% BRCA1/2-deficient patients do not respond to PARPi, and wild-type BRCA cases have no significant benefit. Here, we demonstrated progesterone acted synergistically with niraparib in ovarian cancer cells with or without BRCA deficient. This synergism has been confirmed in the ovarian cancer organoid model and in vivo experiments. Furthermore, progesterone can enhance activity of niraparib in ovarian ca… Show more
