AbstractWe explored the frequency of germline and somatic mutations in homologous recombination (HR)-associated genes in major histological types of ovarian cancer. We performed targeted sequencing to assess germline and somatic mutations of 16 HR-associated genes and 4 mismatch repair (MMR) genes among 207 ovarian cancer patients (50 high-grade serous carcinomas (HGSC), 99 clear cell carcinomas (CCC), 39 endometrioid carcinomas (EC), 13 mucinous carcinomas (MC), and 6 low-grade serous carcinomas (LGSC)). Germline or somatic mutations of HR-associated genes were detected in 44% of HGSC, 28% of CCC, 23% of EC, 16% of MC, and 17% of LGSC patients. The profile of HR-associated gene mutations was remarkably different among each histological type. Germline BRCA1/2 mutations were frequently detected in HGSC and were rarely observed in CCC, EC, and MC patients. ATM somatic mutation was more frequently detected in CCC (9%) and EC patients (18%) than in HGSC patients (4%). There was a positive correlation between MMR gene mutations and HR-associated gene mutations (p = 0.0072). Our findings might be useful in selection of ovarian cancer patients that should be treated with PARP inhibitors.

5568 Background: Niraparib is an oral, selective poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor (PARPi) approved for maintenance treatment of BRCA mutated ( BRCAmut) and BRCA wild-type ( BRCAwt) recurrent ovarian cancer patients (pts) who are in response to platinum-based chemotherapy. In the non-germline BRCA mutated (non-g BRCAmut) cohort of the ENGOT-OV16/NOVA trial, clinical benefit with niraparib vs placebo was seen in pts regardless of their Myriad myChoice HRD test status ( BRCAmut and homologous recombination deficiency [HRD] score), with a hazard ratio (HR) of 0.38 in HRD-positive (HRDpos) and 0.58 in HRD-negative (HRDneg) pts. To determine if treatment benefit in HRDneg pts may result from mutations in other homologous recombination repair ( HRR) genes, we examined the relationship between progression-free survival and other HRR gene mutations in the NOVA non-gBRCAmut cohort. Methods: A retrospective, exploratory biomarker analysis was conducted using all available tumor samples from 331 pts enrolled in the NOVA non-g BRCAmut cohort. Mutation status of HRR genes was evaluated using a 43-gene NGS assay (Myriad Genetics), including BRCA1/2 and 16 additional HRR genes. Results: In this exploratory analysis of the NOVA non-g BRCAmut cohort, niraparib demonstrated clinical benefit in pts with somatic BRCA mutation (HR, 0.27) and in BRCAwt pts (HR, 0.47). In addition, BRCAwt pts with other HRR gene mutations also derived benefit from niraparib (HR, 0.31), as did BRCAwt/ HRRwt pts (HR, 0.49). When BRCAwt/ HRRwt pts were categorized by HRD score, clinical benefit was also observed in both HRDpos and HRDneg pts, with HRs of 0.33 and 0.60, respectively. These results suggest that, although these biomarkers have good positive predictive value, they are not good negative predictors for niraparib benefit in this indication. Conclusions: This retrospective, exploratory analysis of the ENGOT-OV16/NOVA non-g BRCAmut cohort suggests that although pts with somatic BRCA mutation and other HRR mutations benefit from niraparib treatment, clinical benefit is also seen in HRDneg pts without HRR mutations, perhaps related to other genomic, epigenetic, or functional alterations within ovarian tumors yet to be defined.

Homologous Recombination Deficiency

New therapies, such as poly-ADP ribose polymerase inhibitors (PARPi), and immunotherapy treatments have generated great interest in enhancing individualized molecular profiling of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) to improve management of the disease. In EOC patients, putative biomarkers for homologous recombination deficiency (HRD), microsatellite instability (MSI), and tumor mutational burden (TMB) were characterized and correlated with survival outcomes. A series of 300 consecutive EOC patients were enrolled. Patients underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy (n = 172) or primary cytoreductive surgery (n = 128). Molecular profiling and survival analyses were restricted to the primary cytoreductive surgery cohort due to tissue availability. All patients underwent germline testing for HRD- and MSI-related gene mutations. When sufficient tissue was available, screening for somatic BRCA1/2 mutations, BRCA1 promoter methylation, HRD score (a measure of genomic instability), MSI, and TMB testing were performed. HRD score ≥33 was associated with improved overall survival on multivariable analysis. In the era of biomarker-driven clinical care, HRD score ≥33 may be a useful adjunctive prognostic tool and should be evaluated in future studies to predict PARPi benefits.

1502 Background: Triple negative breast and ovarian cancer are known to have a high frequency of homologous recombination deficiencies (HRDef). The prevalence of HRDef among all tumors is unknown. Methods: Molecular profiles of 48,733 tumors obtained from pts with bladder, breast, ovarian, pancreas, prostate, thyroid, cervical, hepatobiliary, colorectal (CRC), endometrial, gastric/esophageal (GE), head/neck, renal, non-small cell lung (NSCLC), small cell lung (SCLC), GIST, glioma, melanoma, sarcoma and unknown 1° cancers were reviewed to identify somatic pathogenic mutations (mut) in HR genes ATM, ATRX, BARD1, BLM, BRCA1/2, BRIP1, FANCA/C/D2/E/F/G/L, MRE11A, NBN, PALB2, PTEN, RAD50, RAD51, RAD51B, or WRN. Molecular profiles were generated from tumors submitted to Caris Life Sciences using multiple technologies including next generation sequencing (average read depth 500X). Results: Overall frequency of HR mut among all tumors is 11.61% (5658/48733). Cancer lineages with highest frequency of HR mut are endometrial (38.08%, 1956/5137), glioma (15.90%, 265/1667), ovarian (12.99%, 1151/8862), prostate (11.21%, 77/687), cervix (10.06%, 79/785) & breast (9.66%, 562/5818). Least commonly mutated lineages include GIST (1.50%, 3/200), sarcoma (3.12%, 55/1763), head/neck (3.70%, 24/648), hepatobiliary (4.72%, 39/827) & pancreas (5.05%, 102/2022). Frequencies of HR gene mutations are depicted in Table 1. Conclusions: HR mutations were seen in 11.61% of tumors. While the percentage of HRDef in pancreatic cancer pts is lower than what has been seen in other datasets, the percentage in breast and ovarian cancer, as well as the percentage of other tumors with HRDef, provide a path to employ HRDef-directed therapies such as platinums, but especially PARP inhibitors and newer agents such as ATRX inhibitors.

e18052 Background: Homologous Recombination Repair (HRR) gene mutations result in Homologous Recombination Deficiency (HRD) associated with increased risk of high grade serous ovarian (HGOC) cancer and subsequent response to PARP inhibitors (PARPi). Traditionally, HRD has been determined by testing for germline and/or somatic BRCA1/2 mutations. Today, a growing number of HRR gene mutations are known to result in HRD and genomic instability, thus being a suitable target for PARPi. Therapy response to PARPi is highest in BRCA-mutant followed by HRD+/non-BRCA-mutant HGOC. Today, no standard HRD testing methods exist, causing confusion for physicians, and leading to poor outcomes for missed PARPi eligible patients. Thus, there is need to understand HRD testing utilization and methods in HGOC to inform best practices and optimize HRD testing in the clinic. Methods: We assessed the testing landscape for determining HRD status in ovarian cancer using a data set of 8,400 newly diagnosed and metastatic ovarian cancer patients in the US from Q3-2018 through Q2-2019 identified from Diaceutics’ proprietary Global Diagnostic Index (GDI). Analysis of real-world BRCA1/2 and NGS associated testing data and laboratory profile mapping exercise of 82 US labs was carried out using Diaceutics proprietary methods and data sources to evaluate BRCA1/2 and/or HRD germline/somatic testing rates, test availability, and test panel HRR gene composition. Results: Overall, germline mutation testing rates were 3x greater than somatic testing rates. Excluding BRCA1/2, 67 labs offered comprehensive solid tumor NGS panels capable of measuring HRD with varied HRR gene target composition. Across 34 labs, 5 HRR genes were commonly found on panels: PALB2, ATM, BARD1, BRIP1 and CHEK2. 3 labs currently offering panels explicitly intended for HRD determination only include BRCA1/2 and at least one genomic instability marker (loss of heterozygosity, large-scale state transitions or telomeric allelic imbalance). Conclusions: Lack of standardized HRD panels and low testing rate identifying patients with somatic mutations in BRCA1/2 and other HRR genes is leading to poorer outcomes for missed patients eligible for PARPi’s. As clinical evidence linking HRD status with PARPi efficacy grows in ovarian as well as prostate and pancreatic cancer, Diaceutics recommends organizations such as ASCO, CAP or AMP establish defined universal HRD testing panels including relevant somatic/germline HRR genes and BRCA1/2 as well as genomic instability markers and educate stake holders aiding harmonization and ultimately, better treatment outcomes.

Abstract Background Advanced relapsed ovarian cancer has a poor prognosis, and treatment options are limited. Methods This phase I trial investigated the dosage, safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of trabectedin plus pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) in Japanese patients with advanced relapsed ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. Patients received trabectedin 0.9 or 1.1 mg/m2 immediately after PLD 30 mg/m2; both drugs were given by intravenous infusion. Treatment was repeated every 21 days until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) was determined in an initial dose escalation phase, and this was used in a subsequent safety assessment phase. Safety and tumor response were monitored throughout the trial, and drug concentrations for pharmacokinetic analysis were measured during cycle 1. Results Eighteen patients were included. The MTD of trabectedin was determined as 1.1 mg/m2. Gastrointestinal adverse events were experienced by all patients, but were mostly grade 1 or 2 in intensity. Most patients had grade ≥ 3 elevations in transaminase levels or grade ≥ 3 reductions in neutrophil count, but these events were generally manageable through dose reduction and/or supportive therapies, as appropriate. There were no deaths during the trial. Trabectedin exposure increased in a dose-dependent manner. The overall response rate was 27.8%. Conclusions Trabectedin, in combination with PLD, may have clinical benefits in Japanese patients with relapsed advanced ovarian cancer. The recommended dosage of trabectedin for further study in this population is 1.1 mg/m2 once every 21 days. Clinical trial registration number: JapicCTI-163164
