Special Issue Introduction
With the recent clinical successes of the PARP inhibitors, the DNA repair pathways have come to the forefront as a bona fide target for personalized treatment of cancers with defective homologous recombination repair. Additionally, DNA repair (genome instability) is a well-established hallmark of cancer and can be a means for dictating tumor sensitivity and resistance to traditional treatments such as chemotherapy and radiation. In this Special Issue, we will provide a basic, translational, and clinical overview of the interactions of the various DNA repair pathways as it relates to carcinogenesis, treatment, and biomarker of response.
