The Prognostic Significance of Homologous Recombination Repair Pathway Alterations in Metastatic Hormone Sensitive Prostate Cancer.
Article in Clinical genitourinary cancer, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionThe homologous recombination repair (HRR) pathway is a frequently mutated pathway in advanced prostate cancer. The clinical course of patients with HRR gene alterations who have metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) has not been fully characterized. Here, we examine the outcomes of men with mHSPC with HRR alterations.
methodsWe conducted a single-center retrospective analysis of men with mHSPC who underwent next generation sequencing. The primary objective was to assess the time from diagnosis of mHSPC to metastatic castrate resistance prostate cancer (mCRPC) in patients with pathogenic HRR alterations compared to individuals lacking these alterations. Key secondary objectives included time to mCRPC in prespecified cohorts, PSA response, and overall survival.
results151 men with mHSPC were identified for the study. 24% (N = 37) had pathogenic HRR gene alterations detected with the most common alterations found in BRCA2 (n = 15), ATM (n = 10), and CDK12 (n = 7). Time to mCRPC was significantly decreased in patients with HRR gene alterations versus those without such alterations (12.7 vs. 16.1 months, HR 1.95, P = .02). In multivariate analysis, the effect of HRR gene alterations on time to CRPC remained significant when adjusting for age, mHSPC therapy, the volume of disease, the presence of visceral metastases, and PSA (adjusted HR 1.69, P = .02). Stratified by specific HRR gene alteration, patients with BRCA2 or CDK12 had significantly decreased time to mCRPC compared to other HRR alterations.
conclusionHRR gene alterations are associated with the worse outcomes in mHSPC with significantly shorter time to mCRPC. Given the established role of Poly (ADP-ribose) Polymerase (PARP) inhibitors in mCRPC, these data highlight an opportunity to examine PARP inhibitors earlier in the clinical course for prostate cancer patients. Ongoing prospective studies will further validate the role of PARP inhibitors in mHSPC patients.
