Abstract:
249 Background: Evaluating tumor specific pathologic and genetic profiles in mCRPC stage is difficult due to the limited availability of mCRPC tissue. We describe findings from a prospective cohort study performed to obtain concomitant histopathology and genetic information in mCRPC. Methods: Patients with mCRPC initiating abiraterone acetate therapy underwent 2 serial (3 months apart) metastatic (met) site needle core biopsies (NCB1/2). Bone lesions were biopsied using 11-13G core needles and 18G core biopsy devices were used for non-osseous masses. Up to 4 cores were obtained at each biopsy with the 1st core (S1) sent for DNA sequencing, the 2nd (S2) for RNA sequencing, and the 3rd/4th (X3, X4) submitted for xenograft implantation. From each, 1-2 mm segments were separated and formalin-fixed for histopathologic examination (HPE). Results: A total of 54 patients, enrolled between June 2013 and July 2014, underwent 94 NCB (54 NCB1, 40 NCB2), rendering a total of 259 samples (94 S1; 75 S2; 59 X3 and 31 X4) of which 85 (32%) were positive (pos) for tumor by HPE. Positivity for tumor in S1, S2, X3, and X4 cores was 42%, 33%, 22%, and 19%, respectively. At least one core pos for met tumor was observed in 62% NCB1 and 52% NCB2 (overall 52/94; 56%). Met sites biopsied include bone (71), lymph nodes (18), liver (3), penile (1) and pelvic (1) soft tissues. HPE revealed met adenocarcinoma in 44/52, and poorly differentiated carcinoma in 8/52. Gleason grade applied to the met ranged from 3+4 to 5+5. 45/85 pos samples (53%) had 〉 50% tumor cellularity. Pos NCB in bone lesions was observed in 23/71 (32%), compared to 17/23 (73%) of non-bone sites (p=.0004). 85 S1 samples yielded DNA material, of which 66 (77%) had ≥10% tumoral DNA. 24 cases with negative HPE had ≥10% tumoral DNA; 7 cases with pos HPE had 〈 10 tumoral DNA. In all, 76/94 (81%) NCB yielded tumor material either by HPE or DNA analysis. Conclusions: NCB of mCRPC is feasible and provides adequate tissue for pursuing HPE and sequencing studies. HPE of extracted material correlates with DNA sequencing data and provides complementary information on tumor features. Bone lesions yield significantly less tumoral material than non-osseous sites.
