Chemotherapy‐Induced Myelosuppression in Patients With gBRCA‐m Epithelial Ovarian Cancer: A Retrospective Study

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Existing evidence indicates that germline BRCA mutation (gBRCA‐m) may increase chemotherapy sensitivity and toxicity. However, its role in chemotherapy‐induced myelosuppression (CIM) remains unclear. We conducted this study to investigate the influence of gBRCA‐m on CIM incidence and severity in patients with epithelial ovarian ...
