The PARP inhibitor AZD2281 is a novel kind of anticancer therapy and is effective in cancer cells with defects of the DNA- repair. Mantle cell lymphomas have mutations of the ATM gene in 56%, combined ATM and p53 mutations in 10%. We analyzed the inhibitory effect of AZD2281 on mantle cell lymphoma cells in an in vitro cell culture model. Especially the cell lines with combined ATM and p53 mutations were sensitive towards AZD2281 treatment. Pathways of DNA repair were analyzed with Western Blots.
