Yes, that's the editorial. And this is the prospicient caution:

The cohort was small, the end points were assessed by the investigators, the gemcitabine–carboplatin regimen is unconventional, and there were imbalances at baseline in prognostically important characteristics favoring the iniparib group. We cannot tell whether the benefit from the PARP inhibitor accrued to all triple-negative tumors equally or whether the benefit preferentially accrued to a subgroup of BRCA-deficient tumors, with less effect in those without the deficiency.
