GU Cancers 2025 | Molecular evolution of HRR gene alterations in metastatic prostate cancer

Chinmay Jani, MBBS, Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, Doral, FL, discusses a study on the molecular evolution of homologous recombination repair (HRR) gene alterations in metastatic prostate cancer (mPC), using circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) profiles. Dynamic changes in HRR mutations, particularly in genes like ATM, BRCA1, and BRCA2, were recorded after treatment with androgen receptor pathway inhibitors, poly ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitors, and taxane chemotherapy. The study also reveals that increased ctDNA burden correlates with poorer overall survival, suggesting these alterations could contribute to treatment resistance. This interview took place at the ASCO GU Cancers Symposium 2025 in San Francisco, CA.
