Hyperthermia Sensitizes BRCA2-Proficient Ovarian Cancer
2026-08-13
Mei et al. show that hyperthermia can reduce BRCA2 protein and increase niraparib sensitivity in ovarian carcinoma cells that retain BRCA2 function. The study links thermal treatment to impaired RAD51 focus formation, enhanced apoptosis, and improved tumor control in an ID8 mouse model, providing a rationale for combination strategies beyond genetically BRCA-deficient disease.
