| Objective(s):1.This study was based on retrospective data to analyze the efficacy and related factors of Poly ADP-ribose Polymerase(PARP)inhibitors in maintenance therapy of ovarian cancer patients.2.To obtain the Homologous Recombination Deficiency(HRD)score of ovarian cancer patients and explore its clinical significance in the maintenance treatment of PARP inhibitors in ovarian cancer.Methods:According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,the informed consent was signed,and the patients who achieved Complete Response(CR)or Partial Response(Partial Response,CR)after platinum-based treatment in our hospital from 2018 to2022 were collected.The data of 84 patients with ovarian cancer who received PARP inhibitor maintenance therapy were collected.The factors that may affect the efficacy of PARP inhibitor(such as pathological type,pathological stage,surgical satisfaction,etc.)were analyzed comprehensively.The efficacy data of patients were collected and correlated with the HRD score to explore the predictive effect of different score intervals on the efficacy.The correlation analysis between the factors affecting the efficacy of PARP inhibitors combined with HRD score and efficacy data was performed to explore its predictive effect on PARP inhibitors..Results:The 84 patients in this study were divided into group 1(using Myriad my Choice CDx)and group 2(using Amoy Dx)according to different HRD scoring standards.1.Among the 50 ovarian cancer patients in group 1,the average Quality Of Life(QOL)scores of patients who continued to use PAPR inhibitors and those who discontinued PAPR inhibitors(due to disease progression or death)were 53.35±8.73 and 45.09±13.61,respectively.There was no significant difference in the HRD score between patients who
