Individuals with pathogenic variants of <i>BRCA1</i> and <i>BRCA2</i> are at higher risk of breast, ovarian, pancreatic and many other cancers. Over the past two decades, several highly penetrant cancer-susceptibility genes were identified across almost all tumor sites, thus increasing the need for comprehensive cancer genetic programs that address the testing process, counselling patients and at-risk family members, and then deal with all testing results and its consequences. In addition to its important role in preventing more cancers in index patients themselves and among their close relatives, identification of pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants, mostly in <i>BRCA1</i> or <i>BRCA2</i>, may inform therapeutic decisions in common cancers including breast, ovarian, prostate and pancreatic cancers.

These advances have brought about new challenges, particularly regarding the potential interactions between new TT (notably BRAF/MEK inhibitors) and irradiation. Through a clinical case, we will discuss a side effect not previously described in the literature: ultra-early pseudoprogression (PP) following brain stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), in a patient treated with dabrafenib-trametinib.</p><p><strong>Case presentation: </strong>A 61-year-old patient with BRAFV600E-mutated melanoma, receiving second-line dabrafenib-trametinib therapy, was referred for SRS on three progressing meningeal implants, without evidence of systemic progression. Four days after the first RT session (1x6 Gy on a fronto-orbital lesion prescribed 5x6 Gy, and 1x20 Gy single fraction on the other lesions), the patient presented with an epileptic seizure. An MRI, compared to the planning MRI ten days earlier, revealed significant progression of the irradiated lesions. The patient's condition improved with dexamethasone and levetiracetam, and RT was halted out of caution. A follow-up MRI at one month demonstrated a size reduction of all treated lesions. Subsequent imaging at five months revealed further shrinking of the two lesions treated with an ablative dose of 20 Gy, while the under-treated fronto-orbital lesion progressed. These dynamics suggest an initial PP in the three irradiated lesions, followed by good response in the ablatively treated lesions and progression in the partially treated lesion.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>To our knowledge, this represents the first documented case of ultra-early PP following brain SRS in a patient receiving concomitant dabrafenib-trametinib. It highlights the need for particular vigilance when using tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) with SRS, and warrants further research into potential treatment interactions between RT and novel systemic agents, as well as the optimal treatment sequence of melanoma BMs.</p>","PeriodicalId":12482,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Oncology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11534723/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142580977","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
