Abstract 3742
Background
Loss of tumour suppressor genes (TSGs), TP53, PTEN and Rb are common in advanced prostate cancer. They are associated with worse outcomes in hormone-resistant prostate cancer. However, the prognostic value of TSGs loss in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) is unknown. Therefore we sought to evaluate the prognostic value of TSGs loss on progression-free survival (PFS) in mHSPC.
Methods
We performed a retrospective analysis of patients with mHSPC treated at Mayo Clinic Arizona between 2015 and 2018. Clinical characteristics, first-line treatment, and TSGs alterations were recorded. TSG-altered (TSG-alt) was defined as an alteration in ≥ 1 TSG (TP53, PTEN or Rb). Demographics and clinical characteristics were compared between groups by chi-square test for frequency data or Kruskal Wallis rank-sum test for continuous measures. PFS was estimated based on the Kaplan-Meier method and compared between groups by the log-rank test.
Results
59 patients with mHSPC were included. 41 (69%) patients received first-line treatment with abiraterone and 18 (31%) patients with docetaxel. 32 patients (54%) had TSG-alt. 20 patients (39%) had damage to 1 TSG, 11 patients (19%) had damage to 2 TSGs, and 1 patient had damage to all 3. Clinical characteristics, prior locoregional treatment, and metastatic disease on diagnosis were similar between TSG-alt and TSG-normal groups. The rate of damaging alterations to the genes was: TP53 21 patients (35.6%), PTEN 21 patients (35.6%), and Rb 3 patients (5.1%). Median PFS was 33.2 mos (95% CI 23.1-NE) for TSG-normal versus 19.7 mos (95% CI 14.4-30.0) for TSG-alt, p = 0.005. There was no difference in PFS between having 1 TSG alteration (18.4 mos; 95% CI 14.7 - NE) vs ≥ 2 TSG alterations (21.8 mos; 95% CI 10.6 - NE) or between first-line treatments with abiraterone (20.2 mos; 95% CI 14.7-35.1) vs docetaxel (19.6 mos; 95% CI 8.0 - NE) in those with TSG-alt.
Conclusions
Loss of TSGs function is common in patients with mHSPC, and is prognostic for early progression during first-line treatment. The presence of ≥ 1 TSG-alt indicates an adverse prognostic impact in mHSPC. Confirmation of these findings may establish the need for inclusion of molecular stratification when defining high risk mHSPC patients.
