摘要
gallbladder cancer(gbc), although considered as a relatively rare malignancy, is the most common neoplasm of the biliary tract system. the late diagnosis and abysmal prognosis present challenges to treatment. the overall 5-year survival rate for metastatic gbc patients is extremely low. BRC A1 and BRCA2 are the breast cancer susceptibility genes and their mutation carriers are at a high risk for cancer development, both in men and women. Olaparib, an oral poly ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitor, has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration and the European commission for the treatment of ovarian cancer with any BRCA1/2 mutations. the first case of BRCA1-mutated gbc patient who responded to olaparib treatment is reported here.
