Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), characterized by the lack of three canonical receptors, is unresponsive to commonly used hormonal therapies. One potential TNBC-specific therapeutic target is NQO1, as it is highly expressed in many TNBC patients and lowly expressed in non-cancer tissues. DNA damage induced by NQO1 bioactivatable drugs in combination with Rucaparib-mediated inhibition of PARP1-dependent DNA repair synergistically induces cell death.
