Abstract A11: NGS-based tumor genomic profiling to identify ovarian cancer patients who benefit from the PARP inhibitor rucaparib

Background: PARP inhibitors (PARPi) are synthetically lethal to tumor cells with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD). HRD can result from deleterious BRCA1/2 mutations (BRCAmut) or other mechanisms that have not been fully elucidated. Regardless of mechanism, HRD leads to a common phenotype of...

Zusammenfassung:Background: PARP inhibitors (PARPi) are synthetically lethal to tumor cells with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD). HRD can result from deleterious BRCA1/2 mutations (BRCAmut) or other mechanisms that have not been fully elucidated. Regardless of mechanism, HRD leads to a common phenotype of genome-wide loss of heterozygosity (LOH). It has been hypothesized that this genomic phenotype can be used to identify BRCA wild-type (BRCAwt) HRD tumors likely sensitive to PARPi. Using comprehensive next generation sequencing (NGS)-based tumor genomic profiling, we developed an HRD assay for potential use as a companion diagnostic for rucaparib in high-grade ovarian cancer (HGOC) by combining tumor BRCA1/2 status and quantification of genomic LOH. Methods: In the phase 2 study ARIEL2 Part 1 (NCT01891344), pre-treatment screening biopsies and archival formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tumor specimens were profiled using Foundation Medicine's NGS-based HRD assay, which detects all classes of genomic alterations, including base substitutions, insertions/deletions, and homozygous deletions in BRCA1/2. Genomic LOH was assessed by sequencing >3,500 evenly-distributed single nucleotide polymorphisms across the genome and quantifying the extent of genomic LOH. A pre-specified genomic LOH cutoff was determined using publicly available SNP array data of ovarian tumors to predict platinum sensitivity as a surrogate marker for PARPi sensitivity. Response was assessed by RECIST v1.1 and GCIG CA-125 response criteria. Results: As of July 1 2015, 195 archival tumor and 152 screening biopsy samples (142 matched pairs) from 206 HGOC patients enrolled (204 patients treated) in ARIEL2 Part 1 were successfully profiled using the NGS-based HRD assay. Some screening biopsies were not suitable for successful NGS-based HRD assessment primarily because of insufficient tumor nuclei or inadequate tumor volume. Most matched pairs of archival and pre-trial screening samples exhibited similar genomic LOH profiles (r=0.86); however, 14% of screening samples had higher genomic LOH compared with archival samples collected more than one year earlier. All BRCA1/2 germline and somatic mutated tumors had high genomic LOH in the screening samples. Receiver operating characteristic analysis of genomic LOH showed utility in identifying RECIST/CA-125 responders to rucaparib (AUC=0.72, p
