BIOMARKER ENRICHMENT
CTDNA IN PROSTATE CANCER Leaders at the Vancouver Prostate Centre
Circulating cell-free DNA (ct. DNA) • Tumor-derived component or circulating cell-free DNA (cf. DNA) is termed circulating-tumor DNA (ct. DNA) • Fragmented DNA released into the bloodstream (~180 bp) • less than 30 minutes in circulation 1 Adapted from Roschewski M, et al. Lancet Oncology. April 2, 2015.
Advantages of using ct. DNA in metastatic setting • Simple and non-invasive • Allows tumour DNA sampling where biopsy is difficult or of low yield (e. g. sclerotic bone metastasis) • Serial sampling • Captures intratumoral and intrapatient heterogeneity

Abiraterone – enzalutamide, Excellent 1 st line treatments Best PSA Decline from Baseline (%) Best PSA decline for first-line therapy: 12 weeks Abiraterone + Prednisone 100. 00 50. 00 Enzalutamide 100. 00 PSA decline > 50%: 55% 50. 00 -50. 00 -100. 00 PSA decline > 50%: 77% P = 0. 0012 Chi et al, ASCO 2017 abstract 5002
Abiraterone and enzalutamide – not as efficacious in second-line
Androgen receptor mutations Enzalutamide / abiraterone
Darolutamide – a new androgen receptor blocker Darolutamide
DNA damage repair – essential for cell survival Accelerated cancer cell mutations / evolution Mutation (BRCA 2 and similar) DNA – repair deficiency Vulnerability to further DNA damage
DNA damage – deficiency, the Achilles heel : inducing further DNA damage Parp inhibitor Further inhibition of DNA repair Adavosertib Induction of further DNA damage Carboplatin
Immunotherapy – Identifying the right patients CKD 12 loss Major DNA errors : Novel proteins Mismatch repair gene mutation
Immunotherapy, unlocking the immune system Tremelimumab - Durvalumab
CTDNA CORRELATIVE STUDIES
Outcomes correlations with genomics TP 53 AR Time to Progression BRCA 2/ATM TTP 1. 8 vs 8. 0 mo 5. 34 (2. 84 -10. 03) TTP 1. 8 vs 8. 0 mo 2. 21 (1. 38 -3. 55)
Outcomes correlations with ct. DNA fraction Time to Second Progression Overall survival • 30 – 100% vs Not detected: HR 7. 72 (95% CI 4. 29 -13. 9), p < 0. 001 • 2 -30% vs Not detected, HR 1. 56 (95% CI 1. 04 -2. 32), p=0. 030 • 2 -30% vs Not detected, HR 2. 77 (95% CI 1. 53 -4. 99), p=0. 001 % Alive % without progression • 30 – 100% vs Not detected: HR 3. 77 (95% CI 2. 41 -5. 89), p < 0. 001 months
Biobank – Expanding Prospective GU Cancers Plasma biobank Accrual Patient Consent obtained • Vancouver • Germline and somatic tumour DNA sequencing • Victoria • Fraser Valley • Centre for the Interior • Anonymized Clinical data collection ct. DNA sequencing Plasma collection Timepoints: 1. Before line of treatment Clinical database 2. On – treatment (816 weeks) 3. At progression Frozen samples
HSD 3 B 1 gain of function polymorphism Hettel el al, Nat Reviews 2017 Hearn et al, Lancet Oncol 2016
HSD 3 B 1 genotype in ABI-ENZA trial P=0. 598 Combined prospective cohort Determine the effect of HSD 3 B 1 genotype on ADT and ARPI outcomes Determine effect of abiraterone vs enzalutamide Khalaf D, Canadian Cancer Research Conference 2017
Biobank Goals (Specifically) • Large prospectively accrued cohort • Through correlative analysis explore the prognostic/predictive value of plasma genomic biomarkers • Comprehensive clinical data • Comprehensive outcomes data • Explore biomarkers for many disease states • m. CSPC • m. CRPC • Explore resistance mechanisms to treatments • Identify novel drive alterations • Large data set for future biomarkers / outcomes studies
