Well, there are some drugs if you Have BRCA1 or BRCA2 There isn’t much in the way of drugs designed for other genetic issues. In some cases, the PARP Inhibitor for BRCA may work for other genetic issues, but Trials have shown it doesn’t work well for most.

You’re much better off not having genetic issues. They can cause your cancer to be worse and keep coming back.

If you have Pluvicto You should get a somatic genetic test. In some cases, the genes in your cancer can be different than your hereditary genes. If that’s true, there may be other treatments. I know people that have had BRCA in their somatic test, but not their hereditary test.
