    Abstract: 47 Background: Large-scale genome-wide association studies have established germline polygenic risk loci that underpin the susceptibility to prostate cancer (PCa). However, most trials conducted are in men of European ancestry with data missing for Asian male PCa. Here, we report on an in-house multidimensional bioinformatics pipeline that integrates OMICS and non-OMICS approaches in identifying true germline risk-variants for PCa in Asian men. Methods: We utilized a prospective cohort study of Asian men who were newly diagnosed with PCa. Whole exome sequencing (Illumina Hiseq, CA) of blood (100X) was performed. The OMICS-based approach entailed a stepwise screen for hallmarks of cancer-specific pathways. A genome-proteome network was then developed to filter for known pathogenic variants; this was followed by comparison against a large artificial database of aggregated germline variants (N = 95,000) with reported linkage to PCa susceptibility. Finally, mutations were filtered through a non-OMICS pipeline that entailed data synchronization with population-level statistics and clinical outcomes (recurrence and survival). Results: Preliminary analyses were based on 277 PCa cases; of which 50 were M1 cases. Screening using a non-combined unbiased approach yielded 36,157 germline variants. This contrast against our OMICS-based approach, which reduced the variant calls to 6,144 significantly associated mutations. Next, by focusing on pathway-specific genes related to hormonal regulation and known cancer hotspot mutations, we could further tighten our variant calls to 3,562 hormone-related variants (rs9269958 on HLA-DRB1) and 2,125 variants in known cancer genes, notably (rs8176320 on BRCA1/2, rs2555691 on LILRA2, rs8036934 on TP53BP1). Conclusions: Here, we show that application of an OMICS approach that combines pathway-driven analyses and an artificial dataset, along with population-level statistics and clinical relevance resulted in more robust annotation of germline variants that were associated with PCa.

    Abstract: 249 Background: A 22-gene GC has been proposed to refine risk stratification of localized PCa by conventional NCCN criteria, and this may potentially influence treatment recommendations. Nonetheless, majority of studies looking at the utility of GC were conducted in White and non-White men from Western cohorts. We therefore investigated the association of GC with NCCN risk groups (RG) in an Asian PCa cohort. Additionally, we examined for inter-racial differences in molecular subtyping between Asian and White/non-White PCa. Methods: GC (Decipher Biosciences Inc., CA) was performed on diagnostic biopsies of men who were treated with radiotherapy +/- hormonal therapy at a single institution (N = 75). ISUP Gleason’s grade (GG) and tumor cellularity were reviewed by an expert GU pathologist. RNA was extracted from 2 x 2.0-mm tumor cores using Qiagen AllPrep DNA/RNA FFPE Kit (Qiagen, Germany) and gene expression was performed on Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0 ST Array (ThermoFischer, CA). PAM50 molecular subtyping was derived using the Decipher GRID database. Results: We profiled 80 tumors from 75 patients, comprising of 18 (24.0%), 9 (12.0%), 21 (28.0%), and 19 (25.3%) NCCN low-/favorable intermediate-, unfavorable intermediate-, high- and very high-RG, respectively; of note, 8 (10.7%) patients had regional/metastatic disease at diagnosis. Using the GC, 27 (33.8%), 14 (17.5%) and 39 (48.8%) were classified as low- ( 〈 0.45), intermediate- (0.45-0.6) and high-RG, respectively ( 〉 0.6). When stratified using a three-tier clinico-genomic (CG) classification system (Spratt et al. 2017), 6 of 21 (28.6%) NCCN-defined high-risk and 4 of 19 (21.1%) very high-risk patients were downgraded to CG-defined intermediate-/low-risk, while 2 of 27 (7.4%) NCCN low-/intermediate-risk patients were in fact upgraded to CG high-risk. Next, we interrogated the PAM50 basal-luminal signature in our cohort. Interestingly, when matched to White (N = 5762) and non-White (N = 155) for NCCN RG, ISUP GG and age, we observed a high proportion of basal subtype (62.7%) in Asians, which contrasted the prevalence observed in White (16.7%) and non-White (15.9%) North American patients (Chi-sq P 〈 0.001). Conclusions: Here, we demonstrated the utility of the 22-gene GC for refining the NCCN risk stratification in a largest Asian PCa dataset to-date. An unexpectedly high proportion of PAM50 basal-subtype was observed, suggesting race-specific differences of the tumor transcriptome.

    Abstract: e17555 Background: The conventional treatment backbone of N+ PCa has been hormonal therapy (HT) alone. Nonetheless, evidence from the STAMPEDE trial suggests that there could be survival benefit with the addition of local RT or AA, and there may be synergy between RT and AA in these advanced patients. We therefore conducted a prospective observational study to evaluate the efficacy of combination AA+HT+RT in patients with N+ PCa. Here, we report the preliminary biochemical response and toxicity data. Methods: Patients with N+M0/N+M1a, biopsy-proven adenocarcinoma of the prostate were enrolled. Patients were staged by 68 Ga-PSMA-PET or whole body MRI. Exclusion criteria were i) ECOG ≥2; ii) cardiac event of 〈 6 mo interval; iii) bone and visceral metastasis. Treatment protocol entailed 18 mo of combination AA (1000 mg plus 5 mg prednisolone once daily) and HT (LHRH agonist/antagonist); RT was delivered to the prostate (78 Gy) +/- pelvis (54 Gy with simultaneous boost of 60-66 Gy to grossly involved lymph nodes in M0 patients). This was matched against a control group that received long-term HT +/- RT (N = 38). Primary endpoint of this analysis was PSA ≤0.1 ng/ml at 6 mo; secondary endpoints were PSA ≤0.1 ng/ml, testosterone ≤0.7 nmol/l at 12 mo, and toxicity outcomes. Germline genetic profiling was performed in all patients. Results: From Feb 2017 to Aug 2019, 18 men were recruited to this study, with a median fu of 15 mo (range 6.0-35.0 mo). Median age was 66.0 y (IQR 62.0-71.0y); median baseline PSA was 18.2 ng/ml (range 3.0-272); 66.7% had GS 8-10 disease; and 22.2% had M1a disease. Combination AA+HT+RT achieved PSA of ≤0.1 ng/ml in 80.0% (N = 12) and 93.3% (N = 14) of patients at 6 mo and 12 mo, respectively, in contrast to 29.4% and 25.0% of patients who were treated with HT+RT and HT alone, respectively. We observed profound castration of 87.5% (N = 14) at 6 mo, and 91.7% (N = 11) at 12 mo. Four and 6 patients experienced acute G2 genitourinary and gastrointestinal toxicities during RT, respectively; 2 patients reported late G2 GU. One patient experienced G2 fatigue and G1 liver enzyme dysfunction, resulting in dose reduction of AA. Genetic testing revealed a patient with BRCA2 frameshift mutation; interestingly, this patient failed to achieve a PSA of ≤0.1 ng/ml at 12 mo. Conclusions: We demonstrate that combinatorial AA+HT and definitive RT is well tolerated, and yield a pronounced early PSA response in N+ PCa. Long-term data will inform if this early efficacy signal leads to improved survival in these patients.

    Abstract: 273 Background: The Decipher 22-gene genomic classifier (GC) has been shown to predict for metastasis and survival in predominantly Caucasian and African-American men from Western cohorts. There is however little data on the clinical utility of GC in Asian prostate cancer (PCa). We investigated if GC prognosticates for metastasis-free survival (MFS) in an Asian cohort of localized PCa. Additionally, we performed comparative genomic analyses between our Asian patients and non-Asian cases from a large Decipher GRID database (Veracyte, San Francisco, CA). Methods: We used a cohort of PCa patients who were treated at a single institution from East Asia between 2006 to 2021. Patients underwent active surveillance or radical prostatectomy (RadP) and/or radiotherapy (RT) +/- hormonal therapy (HT). The GC assay (Decipher Biosciences, CA) was performed on diagnostic biopsies, following central review of the Gleason’s grade (GG) and tumor cellularity by an expert GU pathologist. MFS was the primary endpoint for survival analysis. Comparative analyses of 273 gene-signatures were performed against the full and a propensity-score matched (PSM) cohort identified from the Decipher GRID database. Adjusted p-values from Wilcoxon tests were used to select from these signatures. Results: We profiled 126 unique patient tumors, comprising of 19 (15.1%) NCCN-defined low-/favorable intermediate-, 22 (17.5%) unfavorable intermediate-, 34 (27.0%) high-, and 51 (40.5%) very high-risk groups. 24 (19.0%) patients had RadP as primary treatment, 98 (77.8%) had RT +/- HT, while 4 (3.2%) underwent active surveillance or HT alone. Using the GC, 70 (55.6%), and 56 (44.4%) were stratified as low/intermediate- (≤0.6) and high-risk ( 〉 0.6), respectively. GC high-risk was significantly associated with an inferior MFS than GC low/intermediate-risk ( HR 5.22 [95% CI:1.08–25.3], P = 0.04). Comparison between our Asian and the full unmatched GRID cohort (N = 80,703) revealed a lower proportion of ERG+ PCa (14% vs 41%, P 〈 0.001) and a higher proportion of PAM50 basal subtypes (41% vs 30%, P 〈 0.001), as well as a lower T-cell exclusion (median 0.080 vs 0.097; P 〈 0.001) and angiogenesis (-0.37 vs -0.08; P 〈 0.001) signature scores. These trends were also observed when comparing with the PSM-subset (N = 630; 5:1 ratio for NCCN, GG, age at diagnosis, and assay quality score). Interestingly, both high angiogenesis and T-cell exclusion signatures were associated with a worse MFS ( HR not available due to no events for low angiogenesis, P = 0.0015 by log-rank test; HR 5.12 [1.03–26.5], P = 0.046, respectively). Conclusions: We validated the Decipher 22-gene GC for prognostication of MFS in a predominantly high-risk PCa cohort. We also identified several gene expression signatures that were significantly different between Asian PCa and other cohorts. These observations may have implications for customizing treatment recommendations to an Asian popula tion.

    Abstract: 227 Background: Treatment paradigm for N+M0 PCa has evolved, with the advent of multiple options for upfront AA/Enz or RT in combination with conventional hormonal therapy (HT). However, the optimal treatment protocol remains undefined. We therefore conducted a prospective observational study of combination AA/Enz+RT in N+M0 PCa patients. Methods: Patients with biopsy-proven adenocarcinoma of the prostate and N+M0 by imaging ( 68 Ga-PSMA-PET or whole body MRI) were included. Exclusion criteria were 1) ECOG ≥2; 2) severe comorbidities; 3) cardiac event of 〈 6 mo interval. Treatment protocol involved 18 mo of AA (1000 mg with 5 mg prednisolone once daily)/Enz (160 mg once daily)+HT (LHRH agonist/antagonist) in combination with RT to pelvis (54 Gy with simultaneous boost of 60-66 Gy in 27 fr) and prostate (78 Gy/39 fr); RT commenced 1-3 mo upon initiation of AA/Enz. Primary endpoint of this analysis was PSA of ≤0.1 ng/ml at 12 mo. Results: From Jun 2017-Sep 2019, 13 men were recruited; median follow-up duration was 14.0 mo (range 3.0-28.0 mo). Median age of the cohort was 67.0 y (IQR 61.0 – 69.0 y); 84.0% of men had GS8-10 disease, and median number of cN+ nodes was 2 (range 1-5 nodes). 11 received AA, and 2 received Enz. 53.8% (N = 7) and 69.2% (N = 9) of patients achieved a PSA nadir of ≤0.1 ng/ml at 6.0 and 12.0 mo, respectively; this contrasts against a propensity-matched cohort (N = 27) treated by HT+RT alone (33.3% and 51.9%, respectively). No biochemical recurrence was recorded at the time of analysis. 3 and 2 acute ≥G2 GU and GI toxicities were reported during RT. Late ≥G2 GU toxicities were observed in 2 men (G2 frequency). 2 patients experienced G2 fatigue and one with G2 transaminitis secondary to AA, with dose reduction. Germline genetic profiling with whole exome sequencing revealed two patients (15.4%) with BRCA2 frameshift mutations; interestingly, GU/GI RT toxicities were not observed in these patients. Conclusions: Our preliminary results suggest that combinatorial AA/Enz and high dose RT is tolerated and can induce a pronounced PSA response in low volume N+M0 PCa.

    Abstract: 75 Background: Aberrations of the DDR pathway have been shown to be prognostic of survival and predictive of PARP inhibition in PCa. We have previously reported on the prevalence of germline DDR mutations based on a 32-gene set in localized PCa in EA men, and observed comparable rates with that of White men. Here, we performed additional analyses investigating for associations between DDR variants to the somatic transcriptome of localized PCa. Methods: We utilized a prospectively recruited cohort of 172 EA patients, with centrally assessed Gleason’s score (GS) by an expert pathologist. Germline profiling was performed by whole exome sequencing (100X) using the Illumina Novaseq (CA). Joint genotyping was performed to annotate variants that were deemed to be pathogenic (P)/likely pathogenic (LP)/conflict of interest pathogenic (CIP) based on the CADD and REVEL scores. Tumor transcriptome was profiled using the Decipher Genomic Classifier (GC, Veracyte, CA) based on the Affymetrix ST array (ThermoFisher, CA). Results: Among the subset of 172 EA men, we observed DDR variants in 26 (15%) patients, which was comparable to the larger cohort of 890 men from the same institution. Among the DDR mutations, 2 (7.7%) were classified as P/LP, while 24 (92.3%) were CIP. Decipher GC scores were comparable between patients with and without DDR mutations (median GC score 0.87 vs 0.53, Mann-Whitney U P=0.10). For luminal-basal subtyping by either the PAM50 and Prostate specific subtyping models, we did not observe a difference for the basal (P=0.48) and luminal subtypes (P=0.21). Interestingly, DNA repair gene-set expression were comparable between patients with DDR mutations versus those without (median score -0.2 vs -0.17). However, we observed microenvironment differences for immune-related genes, where patients harboring DDR mutations manifested a less immune-suppressive environment versus those without (PDL2: -0.15 vs 0.2; Treg: 0.09 vs 0.13; MDSC: 0.03 vs 0.07, respectively). Conclusions: Herein, we report an extension of our previous work (Lua, et al. ASCO GU, 2023), where we show potential linkages between the germline DDR variant status and the tumor transcriptome. Our findings suggest the influence of germline DDR variants that extends beyond tumorigenesis.

    Abstract: 95 Background: There is limited data on clinical and patient-reported quality of life (PRO-QOL) outcomes after stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in Asian men with localised prostate cancer. Demographic differences with regard to PRO-QOL outcomes may be due to variation in germline genetics. We therefore conduct a single-institution prospective phase II trial of prostate SBRT in Asian men with intermediate-risk prostate cancers (IR-PCa). Additionally, we investigated association of dosimetric and genetic factors with outcomes. Methods: Patients with biopsy-proven NCCN-defined IR-PCa were recruited. SBRT was delivered at 36.25 Gy/5fr using a Linac-based RapidArc technique. Adverse events (AEs) were assessed with CTCAEv4.0 and IPSS; PRO-QOL assessed using the EPIC instrument at baseline, 1 and 2-year post-SBRT. Germline genetics were profiled by whole exome sequencing (30X). Results: 65 patients were recruited over the period of 2014-2016 (median follow-up = 30 mo). We observed 4 acute ≥G2 gastrointestinal (GI) events (3 fecal urgency, 1 diarrhea). Longitudinal assessment of acute genitourinary (GU) events by IPSS showed worsened symptoms that peaked at 1 wk post-SBRT (44.6% vs 6.2% at 1 mo for men reporting scale upgrade). There was no significant association between acute GU effects (by IPSS) and dosimetric parameters of the irradiated urethra and bladder. PRO-QOL scores demonstrated minimal change over time across all domains; however, sexual bother in the top 50 th percentile subgroup at baseline indicated ≥20% worsening of scores for 10/32 (31%) at 12 mo and 5/12 (42%) at 24 mo; which was not associated with Dose max to the penile bulb (P = 0.1). We observed a high frequency of germline mutations in DNA repair genes (N = 10; 15.4%), including two BRCA2 stop-gain and frameshift mutations. In particular, BRCA2 mutations were detected in 2 of 4 cases with ≥G2 GI effects, independent of rectal dose. Conclusions: While prostate SBRT is well tolerated in our Asian cohort, there appears to be demographic differences in sexual bother compared to Caucasian cohorts. Interestingly, we observed a higher than expected prevalence for germline mutations in DNA repair genes, which may predict treatment response. Clinical trial information: NCT02313298.

    Abstract: 373 Background: Aberrations of the DDR pathway have been shown to be prognostic of survival and predictive of PARP inhibition in PCa. Additionally, germline mutations in DDR genes are linked to PCa susceptibility. Here, we report the germline DDR mutation frequencies in an EA PCa cohort, and their associations with clinicopathological indices and outcomes. Methods: We utilized a prospectively recruited cohort of 891 EA patients, with centrally assessed Gleason’s score (GS) by an expert pathologist. Germline mutation profiling was performed by whole exome sequencing (100X) using the Illumina Novaseq (CA). Following joint genotyping, common variants of ≥1% were filtered, and only variants defined as pathogenic (P)/likely pathogenic (LP) in ClinVar or predicted to be P by CADD or REVEL were retained. We used a 32 DDR gene-set for tests of association with clinicopathological indices, biochemical relapse-free rate (bRFR), and distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS). Results: Median follow up was 54 (33-83) mo; median age at diagnosis was 70 (64-74) y. 741 (84%) men had localized PCa, 65 (7%) had N+M0, and 80 (9%) had M1 disease. Among those with localized PCa, 417 (56%) were stratified as NCCN high/very high. 5-year DMFS was 100%, 96%, 86%, and 74% for NCCN low, intermediate, high/very high, and N+M0 PCa, respectively. 31 (3.5%) men in our cohort harbored a P/LP variant in at least one of the 32 DDR genes; P/LP variants were most frequently observed for BRCA2 (N=11[1.2%]), ATM (N=6[0.7%] ), and RAD50 (N=5[0.6%]). P/LP variants were more frequent in men with N+M0/M1 compared with those with localized PCa (29% vs 16%, P=0.05), and in men with GS 9-10 vs 6-8 tumors (43% vs 20%, P=0.002). Presence of P/LP DDR variants were significantly associated with bRFR (HR 2.44 [95% CI:1.0-6.1] , P=0.049) in M0 patients treated with RT+/-hormonal therapy on univariable and multivariable analyses. Conclusions: Herein, we observed lower frequencies of germline DDR P/LP mutations in our EA PCa cohort than other published Chinese cohorts (Wei, et al. 2018; Wei, et al. 2020). Nonetheless, there was a strong trend for increased incidence of DDR mutations with more advanced PCa. Men with DDR mutations were more likely to fail treatment than men without. [Table: see text]

    Abstract: 377 Background: In patients with biochemical relapse (BCR) following radical prostatectomy (RadP), risk stratification by clinical indices alone is suboptimal for identifying subgroups likely to benefit from salvage radiotherapy (RT). It is also recommended that combination hormonal therapy (HT)-RT improves rates of salvage and survival, hence the need for a clinical tool to better stratify patients for RT and HT-RT; the latter approach for patients at risk of occult metastases. Herein, we investigated the role of 68 Ga-Prostate-specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA)-PET in the detection of regional and distal recurrences, and for clinical decision making in a prospective cohort of patients with BCR post-RadP. Methods: 68 Ga-PSMA-PET and CT were performed in a cohort of 50 RadP patients with BCR. Radiological interpretation was independently performed by two assessors, who were blinded to the patient identifiers. PSMA+ lesions were considered as true positives; negative-PSMA in the presence of continued PSA rise defined false negative. Impact on clinical decision making was reviewed by comparison of PSMA-PET and CT findings in the post-RadP PSA 0.5-2.0 ng/ml subgroup. Results: Overall detection rate for 68 Ga-PSMA/PET was 74% (37 of 50) in our cohort with a median post-RadP PSA level of 2.19 (IQR = 0.45-4.26). Detection rates were significantly increased at a PSA cut-off 〉 1.0; 96% (25 of 26) at 〉 2.0 and 100% (5 of 5) at 1.0-2.0 compared to 67% (4 of 6) at 0.5-1.0, and 23% (3 of 13) at 〈 0.5 (P 〈 0.001). In 0.5-2.0 PSA subgroup, 3 regional nodes and 11 distal (6 nodes, 4 bones, 1 lung) lesions were detected. This altered treatment in 5 of the 11 (46%) cases; 3 N+ cases would have been recommended for HT-RT and pelvic nodal RT, while RT would be omitted in 2 patients due to low volume systemic disease. Conclusions: Our findings support the existing data for PSMA-PET as a sensitive diagnostic tool for clinical recurrences post-RadP. Additionally, the detection of small volume nodal and distal lesions at post-RadP PSA levels of 〈 2.0 ng/ml highlights the potential utility of PSMA-PET for selecting patients to treatment intensification with HT-RT or omission of RT in cases of distal relapse.
