Abstract
Background: Intraductal Carcinoma of the Prostate (IDC-P) is a significant prognostic indicator for prostate cancer, which demonstrates significant associations with homologous recombination repair gene mutations (HRRm) and alterations in tumor suppressor genes. However, no study in Japan has investigated the association between IDC-P and genetic mutations in men with metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC).
Methods: This prospective observational study enrolled 102 de novo mCSPC (LATITUDE high-risk) patients diagnosed between 2018 and 2021, with subsequent monitoring of survival outcomes. A single genitourinary pathologist evaluated all needle biopsy slides. Genetic analyses were performed using the Myriad myChoice HRD plus™. These genetic analyses covered 108 genetic loci, including 15 HRRm genes, with a success rate of 91%.
Results: Genetic alterations were observed in 79 patients (77.5%), with 20 exhibiting HRRm (19.6%). Common genetic alterations included FOXA1 (29.4%) and TP53 (17.6%) mutations; BRCA (9.8%) mutations were the most frequent HRRm (BRCA1:2 cases, BRCA2:8 cases, including 6 biallelic). IDC-P-positive patients demonstrated a significantly higher frequency of genetic aberrations (82.6% vs. 50%, p = 0.0082). Patients with biallelic BRCA2, TP53, and PTEN mutations exhibited significantly poorer cancer-specific survival. Multivariate analysis identified lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (HR 1.005, p = 0.035), TP53 mutations (HR 5.196, p < 0.001), biallelic BRCA2 mutations (HR 10.686, p = 0.005), and IDC-P as independent predictors of poor cancer-specific survival. No cancer-related deaths occurred in IDC-P-negative cases.
Conclusion: Our study emphasizes the significant association between IDC-P and an elevated incidence of genetic alterations in Japanese mCSPC patients, emphasizing the need for early genetic testing to guide therapeutic decision-making.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Clinical Oncology (IJCO) welcomes original research papers on all aspects of clinical oncology that report the results of novel and timely investigations. Reports on clinical trials are encouraged. Experimental studies will also be accepted if they have obvious relevance to clinical oncology. Membership in the Japan Society of Clinical Oncology is not a prerequisite for submission to the journal. Papers are received on the understanding that: their contents have not been published in whole or in part elsewhere; that they are subject to peer review by at least two referees and the Editors, and to editorial revision of the language and contents; and that the Editors are responsible for their acceptance, rejection, and order of publication.
