PARP1/2 inhibitors are effective against BRCA2-deficient tumors. The PARP inhibitor (PARPi) olaparib received FDA breakthrough designation for treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancers (CRPC) carrying mutations in BRCA1/2 or ATM genes. Emergent resistance to PARPi has been associated with tumor-specific BRCA2 mutations that revert the normal open reading frame rescuing homologous recombination. We describe a case of metastatic CRPC with germline BRCA2 mutation with acquired resistance to olaparib related to biallelic BRCA2 reversion mutations of both the germline and somatic loss of function alleles detected by circulating tumor DNA testing. We also summarize a retrospective analysis of 1,534 prostate cancer cases with ctDNA analysis showing a 1.6% incidence of germline BRCA2 mutations. Within the germline BRCA2-positive cases exposed to platinum chemotherapy or PARP inhibition, the prevalence of reversion mutations was 40%. This report documents the frequency of reversion mutations in a large cohort of prostate cancer patients carrying of BRCA mutations. It also shows the potential utility of ctDNA analyses for early detection of reversion mutation driving tumor resistance. |
