Real-world prevalence of homologous recombination repair mutations in advanced prostate cancer: an analysis of two clinico-genomic databases

Le résumé fourni par la source

BACKGROUND: Homologous recombination repair mutation (HRRm) status may guide risk-stratification and treatment decisions, including polyadenosine diphosphate-ribose polymerase inhibitor use, in advanced prostate cancer. Although HRRm prevalence has been reported in single-institution studies or clinical trials, real-world HRRm prevalence in diverse populations is unknown. We describe HRRm in the clinical setting using two real-world clinicogenomic databases: the Flatiron Health and Foundation Medicine, Inc. Clinico-Genomic Database (CGDB), a national electronic health record-derived database, and the American Association for Cancer Research Project Genomics Evidence Neoplasia Information Exchange (GENIE). METHODS: This cross-sectional analysis included 3757 individuals diagnosed with prostate cancer who had next generation sequencing (NGS) as standard of care. The CGDB included men with advanced/metastatic prostate cancer and genetic data included both germline and somatic pathogenic mutations. The GENIE analysis included men with prostate cancer whose received NGS as standard of care, but the data were filtered to include somatic mutations only. Due to key differences among databases, direct comparisons were not possible. Overall prevalence of HRRm was calculated and stratified by demographic and clinical characteristics. RESULTS: HRRm prevalence (combined germline and somatic) in CGDB (n = 487) was 24.6% (95% CI 20.9-28.7%), with no major differences across demographic and disease characteristic subgroups. HRRm prevalence (somatic) in GENIE (n = 3270) was 11.0% (95% CI 10.0-12.1%), which varied between 9.5% and 18.4% across treatment centers. CONCLUSIONS: Approximately one-quarter of patients with advanced/metastatic prostate cancer in the CGDB had germline and/or somatic HRRm, which is consistent with clinical trials such as the PROfound study that used a similar NGS platform and algorithm to define HRRm. In the GENIE database, HRRm prevalence varied by treatment center or NGS platform. More research is needed to understand real-world HRRm prevalence variations.
