RESUMO
PURPOSE: Deleterious germline/somatic homologous recombination-repair mutations (HRRm) are present in ~25% of metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients. Preclinically, PARP-Inhibition demonstrated synergism with ARP-targeted therapy. This trial evaluated efficacy of ARP-Inhibitor versus PARP-Inhibitor versus combination as first-line therapy in mCRPC patients with HRRm. PATIENTS AND METHODS: BRCAAway is a biomarker pre-selected, randomized, phase-2 trial. Patients with BRCA1/2 and/or ATM alterations were randomized 1:1:1 to Arm1: Abiraterone (1000mg)/prednisone (Abi/pred) (5mg), Arm2: Olaparib (Ola) (300mg), or Arm3: Abiraterone/prednisone + Olaparib (Abi/pred+Ola). Single-agent arms could cross over at progression. Exploratory Arm4 patients with other HRRm received Olaparib alone. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS), and secondary endpoints were objective response, PSA response, and safety. RESULTS: 61/165 eligible patients had BRCA1/2 or ATM mutations: Median age: 67 (IQR 62-73) years. Mutations: BRCA1 n=3, BRCA2 n=46, ATM n=11, multiple n= 1; 33 germline, 28 somatic. Median PFS (95% CI): Abi/pred, 8.6 months (m) (2.9, 17), Ola, 14 m (8.4, 20), Abi/pred+Ola, 39 m (22, NR). There were no G4/5 AEs. 8/19 on Abi/pred crossed over to Ola, and 8/21 vice versa: Median PFS (95% CI) from crossover: Ola-after-Abi/pred, 8.3 m (5.5, 15); Abi/pred-after-Ola, 7.2 m (2.8, NR). Median PFS (95% CI) from randomization: Ola-after-Abi/pred, 16 m (7.8, 25), Abi/pred-after-Ola, 16 m (11, NR). 17/165 patients with other HRRm received olaparib: Median PFS (95% CI): 5.5 m (2, 11). CONCLUSIONS: In mCRPC patients with BRCA1/2 or ATM HRRm, abiraterone/prednisone + olaparib was well tolerated and demonstrated longer PFS versus either agent alone or sequentially.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Studies have shown improved survival among individuals with cancer with higher levels of social support. Few studies have investigated social support and overall survival (OS) in individuals with advanced prostate cancer in an international cohort. We investigated the associations of marital status and living arrangements with OS among individuals with advanced prostate cancer in the International Registry for Men with Advanced Prostate Cancer (IRONMAN). METHODS: IRONMAN is enrolling participants diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer (metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, mHSPC; castration-resistant prostate cancer, CRPC) from 16 countries. Participants in this analysis were recruited between July 2017 and January 2023. Adjusting for demographics and tumor characteristics, the associations were estimated using Cox regression and stratified by disease state (mHSPC, CRPC), age (<70, ≥70 years), and continent of enrollment (North America, Europe, Other). RESULTS: We included 2,119 participants with advanced prostate cancer, of whom 427 died during up to 5 years of follow-up (median 6 months). Two-thirds had mHSPC. Most were married/in a civil partnership (79%) and 6% were widowed. Very few married participants were living alone (1%), while most unmarried participants were living alone (70%). Married participants had better OS than unmarried participants [adjusted HR: 1.44; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.02-2.02]. Widowed participants had the worst survival compared with married individuals (adjusted HR: 1.89; 95% CI: 1.22-2.94). CONCLUSIONS: Among those with advanced prostate cancer, unmarried and widowed participants had worse OS compared with married participants. IMPACT: This research highlighted the importance of social support in OS within this vulnerable population.

Bone pain is a well-known quality-of-life detriment for individuals with prostate cancer and is associated with survival. This study expands previous work into racial differences in multiple patient-reported dimensions of pain and the association between baseline and longitudinal pain and mortality. This is a prospective cohort study of individuals with newly diagnosed advanced prostate cancer enrolled in the International Registry for Men with Advanced Prostate Cancer (IRONMAN) from 2017 to 2023 at U.S. sites. Differences in four pain scores at study enrollment by race were investigated. Cox proportional hazards models and joint longitudinal survival models were fit for each of the scale scores to estimate HRs and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for the association with all-cause mortality. The cohort included 879 individuals (20% self-identifying as Black) enrolled at 38 U.S. sites. Black participants had worse pain at baseline compared with White participants, most notably a higher average pain rating (mean 3.1 vs. 2.2 on a 10-point scale). For each pain scale, higher pain was associated with higher mortality after adjusting for measures of disease burden, particularly for severe bone pain compared with no pain (HR, 2.47; 95% CI: 1.44-4.22). The association between pain and all-cause mortality was stronger for participants with castration-resistant prostate cancer compared with those with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer and was similar among Black and White participants. Overall, Black participants reported worse pain than White participants, and more severe pain was associated with higher mortality independent of clinical covariates for all pain scales. SIGNIFICANCE: Black participants with advanced prostate cancer reported worse pain than White participants, and more pain was associated with worse survival. More holistic clinical assessments of pain in this population are needed to determine the factors upon which to intervene to improve quality of life and survivorship, particularly for Black individuals.
