Molecular Profile Changes in Patients with Castrate-Resistant Prostate Cancer Pre- and Post-Abiraterone/Prednisone Treatment.

ABSTRACT: We identified resistance mechanisms to abiraterone acetate/prednisone (AA/P) in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) in the Prostate Cancer Medically Optimized Genome-Enhanced Therapy (PROMOTE) study.We analyzed whole-exome sequencing (WES) and RNA-sequencing data from 83 patients with metastatic biopsies before (V1) and after 12 weeks of AA/P treatment (V2). Resistance was determined by time to treatment change (TTTC).At V2, 18 and 11 of 58 patients had either short-term (median 3.6 months; range 1.4-4.5) or long-term (median 29 months; range 23.5-41.7) responses, respectively. Nonresponders had low expression of TGFBR3 and increased activation of the Wnt pathway, cell cycle, upregulation of AR variants, both pre- and posttreatment, with further deletion o
