Abstract

Homologous-recombination deficiency in DNA repair characterizes a unique group of cancers that are vulnerable to PARP inhibitors and cytotoxic chemotherapy. In this issue of Cell, Luo et al., demonstrated that this genetic attribute in cancer cells may reprogram tumor immune microenvironment and show promise of targeting effector-Treg cells.
