Homologous recombination (HR) and DNA damage repair (DDR) somatic alterations in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC): results from the comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) trial FPG500 (AIOM 2024)

Background : Treatment (tx) of MSS/MMRp mCRC relies mainly on oxaliplatin (oxa)- or irinotecan-based doublet chemotherapy regimens, with no biomarker reported so far, allowing the selection of one tx over the other. HR-DDRa is associated with MSI-H or TMB-H. Pts with MSS HR-DDRa tumors benefit from oxa-based first line treatment. Longer FU, allowing mature OS data, and wider cohorts are warranted.

Germline pathogenic variants in prostate cancer. (PubMed, Pathol Res Pract)

Individuals with a family history of cancer were significantly more likely to have a pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant than those without one (p = 0.002). Overall, our results show the necessity for future research with a larger sample size to better explain the relationship between clinicopathologic data and genetic variants.

Oncologic outcomes of incidental serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma and associated high-grade serous carcinoma in high-risk patients undergoing risk-reducing surgery. (PubMed, Int J Gynecol Cancer)

The study supports the critical need for timely risk-reducing surgery in high-risk populations, as well as a comprehensive pathologic examination along with vigilant post-operative surveillance. Consensus guidelines for management of serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma are necessary to identify a group of patients at higher risk of progression to primary peritoneal carcinoma and optimize patient care.

Understanding genetic variations associated with familial breast cancer. (PubMed, World J Surg Oncol)

Familial breast cancer has been linked to several genetic diseases and mutations, according to studies. Screening for genetic disorders is recommended by National Comprehensive Cancer Network recommendations. Evaluation of breast cancer candidate variations and risk loci may improve individual risk assessment. Only high- and moderate-risk gene variations have clinical guidelines, whereas low-risk gene variants require additional investigation. With increasing use of NGS technology, more linkage with rare genes is being discovered.

Considering the study period (2000-2019), the limited use of bevacizumab and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors as maintenance therapy should be recognized.

In this cross-sectional universal genetic testing study of women with newly diagnosed invasive breast cancer, the prevalence of GPVs was 7.3%, with 5.3% of patients testing positive for B1B2P2. Among B1B2P2-women women, one-third were eligible for PARP inhibitors.

DNA-Damaging Therapies in Patients With Prostate Cancer and Pathogenic Alterations in Homologous Recombination Repair Genes. (PubMed, JCO Precis Oncol)

Patients with BRCA1/2-mutated PC had significantly improved outcomes to PARPi but not platinum chemotherapy compared with those with HRR mutations without direct BRCA complex interaction.

Deletion of BTB and CNC homology 1 protects against Staphylococcus aureus-induced acute lung injury. (PubMed, J Infect Dis)

Mechanistic studies demonstrated that BACH1 downregulated tumor necrosis factor-alpha-induced protein 3 (TNFAIP3) mRNA expression by binding to its promoter region. These findings uncover inhibiting BACH1 may be a promising therapeutic strategy for treating gram-positive bacteria-induced ALI.

Landscape of homologous recombination deficiency in gastric cancer and clinical implications for first-line chemotherapy. (PubMed, Gastric Cancer)

Low proportion of macroscopic type 3 or 4 tumors and a high TMB are distinctive features of GC with HRD. HRD status is a potential predictive marker in platinum-based first-line chemotherapy for unresectable metastatic GC.

Natural Killer Cell Regulation of Breast Cancer Stem Cells Mediates Metastatic Dormancy. (PubMed, Cancer Res)

Expression of STING and STING targets was decreased in quiescent CSCs, and the STING agonist MSA-2 enhanced NK cell killing. Collectively, these findings demonstrate the role of immune regulation of breast tumor dormancy and highlight the importance of utilizing immunocompetent models to study this phenomenon.
