Abstract 779P

Background

HRD is used to identify HGOC patients most likely to benefit from PARPi. Unlike commercially available genomic scar HRD tests (CT), functional testing by RAD51, have potential to provide a real-time readout of actual HR status and may be more reliable to detect HRD.

Methods

This single-institution study assesses the immunofluorescence-based RAD51 foci test and correlates it to CT and treatment outcomes in newly diagnosed advanced HGOC pts between 2020-2023. Tumors with <10% RAD51+ tumor cells in S/G2-phase were classified as HRD positive (HRD+). HRD status agreement rate between CT and RAD51 was calculated. Median progression-free survival (mPFS) was estimated in each subgroup.

Results

Overall, 53 pts had CT and RAD51 tests performed on archival tumour samples. Both tests were contributive for 38 pts. As 1st line therapy, all pts received platinum chemotherapy. As maintenance, 47% received PARPi and 18% Bevacizumab alone. % of HRD+ according CT and RAD51 was 55.3% (21/38) and 42.1% (16/38), respectively. Concordance rate between both tests was 50% (95%CI 34.8-65.2), with 12 and 7 pts identified as HRD+ only by CT and RAD51. Table: 779P

Based on CT, mPFS of HRD+ and HRP pts was 19.4m and 16.1m, respectively (HR 0.69; 95%CI, 0.26-1.85). Based on RAD51, mPFS for HRD and HRP pts was 19.4m and 14.3m (HR 0.70; 95%CI, 0.25-1.93), respectively. Among pts with consistent HRD test results, mPFS was 19.4 m and 11 m for HRD and HRP pts, respectively. Among disparate results, mPFS was 17.4m and 16.1m for pts defined as HRD only by CT and RAD51, respectively.

Conclusions

Our preliminary data showed both tests identified HRD and HRP subpopulations with similar outcomes despite low correlation between them. Among pts with HRP by CT, RAD51 identified a subset of HRD+ with better mPFS. Combination of genomic and functional HRD tests could improve molecular diagnostic accuracy of HGOC.
