Abstract
We treated two patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who achieved a response duration of more than 12 months with Poly-ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitor (PARPi). Case 1 was a patient in his 60s with lung metastases, and case 2 was in his 70s and presented liver metastases. Genetic tests (FoundationOne® CDx) were performed. Both patients had somatic biallelic BRCA2 loss, together with RB1 splice site variant (NM_000321.3:c.2489 + 1G > C) or RB1 loss. After PARPi administration, their metastatic sites had shrunk enough to keep partial response. These cases suggested that patients with mCRPC with biallelic BRCA2 loss and the RB1 splice site variant or loss may have remarkable response to PARPi.
期刊介绍:
This online-only journal publishes original case reports on all types of cancer. In particular, we welcome not only case reports of educational value in the diagnosis and treatment of cancers, but also reports on molecularly analyzed cancer cases, including gene mutations, gene fusions, gene expression, and changes in copy number, regardless of their known clinical significance. Assessing the molecular analysis of a tumor usually requires a “cancer conference” in which experts from various fields discuss it. Even if the authors and their respective “cancer conference” were unable to determine the clinical significance of molecular changes at the time of submission and publication, their data may provide evidence that will help the scientific community develop precision medicine solutions in the future. We welcome case reports with reviews of the literature on similar cases, as they are more useful and valuable to readers than are reports of rare cases. International Cancer Conference Journal is the official publication of the Japan Society of Clinical Oncology (JSCO).
