Clinical Outcomes in Cyclin-dependent Kinase 12 Mutant Advanced Prostate Cancer.


ABSTRACT:

Background

Cyclin-dependent kinase 12 (CDK12) loss occurs in 3-7% of metastatic prostate cancer patients and is characterized by a genomic instability signature, but the clinical implications of CDK12 loss are not well established.

Objective

To determine the clinical course of patients with CDK12 mutant advanced prostate cancer compared with other genomic subtypes.

Design, setting, and participants

A retrospective analysis of data from three academic medical centers, including 317 patients with advanced prostate cancer and prior next-generation sequencing from tumor tissue (n?=?172) or circulating tumor DNA (n?=?145), was performed. Forty-six patients had CDK12 mutations; 34 had biallelic CDK12 loss (79%).

Outcome measurements and statistical analysis

Patients were stratified by mutation status (CDK12, homologous recombination deficiency [HRD; BRCA1/2 and ATM], TP53, and other cohort). The Kaplan-Meier method was used to evaluate time to event outcomes: time to development of metastatic disease, time to development of castration resistance, and time to prostate-specific antigen (PSA) progression after first-line androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI) therapy in a patient subset.

Results and limitations

The median follow-up was 66.6 mo. Patients with CDK12 mutant prostate cancer exhibited shorter time to metastasis (median?=?34.9 mo, p?=? 0.004) and development of castration-resistant disease (median = 32.7 mo, p?ConclusionsOur data suggest that advanced prostate cancers harboring CDK12 mutations display aggressive clinical behavior, underscoring the need to fully delineate the molecular and clinical characteristics, and appropriate therapeutic approaches for distinct subtypes of advanced prostate cancers.

Patient summary

In this report, we evaluate the clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with prostate cancer and CDK12 mutation in their tumors. These patients seem to have more aggressive disease, with more high-grade Gleason ?8 cancers and shorter time to developing metastatic cancer. Cases of advanced CDK12-mutated prostate cancer may warrant consideration of therapy intensification or combination approaches.
