Homologous Recombination Deficiency Test (HRD)

Actionable Insights for Targeted PARPi Therapy

Test Code
SLS162201

What is the Homologous Recombination Deficiency Test?

The HRD test evaluates both BRCA1/2 mutations alongside indicators of genomic instability in ovarian cancer. Genomic instability is a hallmark of tumors with impaired DNA repair mechanisms, often resulting in the accumulation of mutations. Based on tumor BRCA1/2 mutation status and a genomic scar score, this test helps predict a tumor’s likelihood of responding to therapies targeting DNA repair deficiencies, such as PARP inhibitors (PARPi).

HRD Scoring Matrix
BRCA Status GSS Score HRD Status
BRCA +ve GSS High (≥50) HRD Positive
BRCA +ve GSS Low (<50) HRD Positive
BRCA -ve GSS High (≥50) HRD Positive
BRCA -ve GSS Low (<50) HRD Negative
Genes Covered/ No. of Genes/ Biomarkers Covered: 19 genes (including BRCA1 and BRCA2) and Genomic Scar Score (GSS)
