Title:
Olaparib efficacy in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) carrying circulating tumor (ct) DNA alterations in BRCA1, BRCA2 or ATM: Results from the PROfound study

Excerpt:
Key secondary efficacy endpoints (ORR, OS) will also be reported for ctDNA alteration positive patients. Patients who were positive for alterations in BRCA1, BRCA2 or ATM showed a consistent rPFS improvement (hazard ratio [HR] 0.33 [0.21, 0.53]) when compared with the ITT population identified by tumor tissue testing (HR 0.34 [0.25, 0.47]). This suggests that using ctDNA to identify patients carrying BRCA1, BRCA2 or ATM alterations who will benefit from olaparib may be beneficial.
