ABSTRACT

Oncogenetic testing is now part of standard management in high grade ovarian cancer, including at least mutational status of BRCA1/BRCA2 genes. If necessary, tumor genetic testing is followed by constitutional testing to either confirm the constitutional origin of variants identified in BRCA1/2 genes or detect variants in other predisposition genes. The whole process including prescription of tumoral testing, retrieval of analysis report and communication of results must be formalized, as well as information on possible consequences of the results for the patient and her family. Tumor material must meet criteria of size and cellularity to allow high-quality analysis. These samples are processed during the preanalytical phase with two major steps : time of cold ischemia and fixation. Only pathogenic (Class V) and likely pathogenic (Class IV) variants sh own in tumor tissue are mentioned in the report. Currently, only BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes are routinely studied but, in the future, analysis will be extended to other genes involved in homologous recombination repair. In patients without BRCA mutation, other biomarkers reflecting sensitivity to PARP inhibitors, such as HRD scores (homologous recombination deficiency) that appeared recently, will have to be implemented in routine practice in order to better select patients for these treatments and choose optimal therapy.
