Convergent evolution of BRCA2 reversion mutations under therapeutic pressure by PARP inhibition and platinum chemotherapy
Reversion mutations that restore wild-type function of the BRCA gene have been described as a key mechanism of resistance to Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor therapy in BRCA-associated cancers. Here, we report a case of a patient with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRP...

| Shrnutí: | Reversion mutations that restore wild-type function of the
BRCA
gene have been described as a key mechanism of resistance to Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor therapy in BRCA-associated cancers. Here, we report a case of a patient with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) with a germline
BRCA2
mutation who developed acquired resistance to PARP inhibition. Extensive genomic interrogation of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) and tissue at baseline, post-progression, and postmortem revealed ten unique
BRCA2
reversion mutations across ten sites. While several of the reversion mutations were private to a specific site, nine out of ten tumors contained at least one mutation, suggesting a powerful clonal selection for reversion mutations in the presence of therapeutic pressure by PARP inhibition. Variable cfDNA shed was seen across tumor sites, emphasizing a potential shortcoming of cfDNA monitoring for PARPi resistance. This report provides a genomic portrait of the temporal and spatial heterogeneity of prostate cancer under the selective pressure of a PARP inhibition and exposes limitations in the current strategies for detection of reversion mutations. |
