Abstract Pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma (PACC) is a rare form of pancreatic cancer that commonly harbors targetable alterations, including activating fusions in the MAPK pathway and loss-of-function (LOF) alterations in DNA damage response/homologous recombination DNA repair-related genes. Here, we describe a patient with PACC harboring both somatic biallelic LOF of NBN and an activating NTRK1 fusion. Upon disease progression following 13 months of treatment with folinic acid, fluorouracil, irinotecan, and oxaliplatin (FOLFIRINOX), genomic analysis of a metastatic liver biopsy revealed the emergence of a novel reversion mutation restoring the reading frame of NBN. To our knowledge, genomic reversion of NBN has not been previously reported as a resistance mechanism in any tumor type. The patient was treated with, but did not respond to, targeted treatment with a selective NTRK inhibitor. This case highlights the complex but highly actionable genomic landscape of PACC and underlines the value of genomic profiling of rare tumor types such as PACC. |
