ABSTRACT
Given the rarity of RAD51C mutations, the risk and treatment of metachronous breast cancer after the diagnosis of ovarian cancer in RAD51C mutation carriers is not clear, especially for those who have received PARPi treatment. We report the case of a 65-year-old woman diagnosed with stage IIIC high-grade serous primary fallopian tube cancer. The patient had no family history of breast or ovarian cancer. The patient received three cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with paclitaxel and carboplatin and achieved a complete response. After interval debulking surgery, the patient received three cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy. Collection and extraction of saliva DNA for next-generation sequencing identified a RAD51C mutation c.838-2 A > G. The patient received niraparib as front-line maintenance treatment. After 36 months of niraparib treatment, the patient had grade II invasive ductal carcinoma of the left breast that was positive for estrogen receptor (90%) and Ki-67 (30%) and negative for progesterone receptor and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2. Computed tomography revealed the absence of distant metastases. Modified radical mastectomy and axillary lymph node dissection were then performed. The final pathological report of the breast showed a 1.8 cm Bloom-Richardson grade II invasive ductal carcinoma in the left breast with axillary lymph node metastasis (1/21). Finally, the breast cancer was stage IIA, pT1cN1M0. The metachronous breast cancer in this case may be the first report of second primary cancer in fallopian tube cancer patient harboring a RAD51C mutation during niraparib treatment. Further studies are required to determine optimal treatment.
