Highlights from the presentations include:

Two studies leveraging Foundation Medicine’s novel homologous recombination deficiency signature (HRDsig) to explore whether this biomarker is associated with FOLFIRINOX benefit in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer via the Flatiron Health-Foundation Medicine Clinico-Genomic Database (CGDB), and to understand the prevalence of HRDsig positivity in non-small cell lung cancer using FoundationOneCDx.

A real-world analysis of 447 men in the CGDB with de novo metastatic prostate cancer treated in standard of care settings, found that the subgroup with SPOP mutations had much more favorable time to castration resistance and overall survival if treated with second generation hormonal agents versus docetaxel. Another study using Foundation Medicine’s tissue-based comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) test found that SPOP mutations occur in a moderate number of Clinically Advanced Prostate Cancer (CAPC) cases and are associated with lower frequencies of TMPRSS2: ERG fusions, AR amplifications, cell cycle genomic alterations (GA) and MTOR pathway GA and higher frequencies of immunotherapy drug efficacy biomarkers including microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H), tumor mutational burden high (TMB-H) and PD-L1 status.

A large-scale analysis of lung cancer cases, sequenced using FoundationOne CDx, to identify genomic alterations associated with loco-regional lesions, extracranial metastases and brain metastases to determine their functional roles and downstream pathways, providing a foundation for the development of RICTOR-targeted therapeutic strategies for the treatment and/or prevention of lung cancer brain metastases.
A characterization of the genomic landscapes of TMB-H versus TMB-low (TMB-L) in patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas (iCCA) using FoundationOne CDx. Findings support the clinical development of immunotherapy approaches for the treatment of TMB-H iCCA patients.
"This data demonstrates the power of our tissue- and liquid-based comprehensive genomic profiling tests for enabling critical research on complex genomic signatures and emerging biomarkers," said Priti Hegde, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer at Foundation Medicine. "We’re proud to be working across the cancer research community to deepen our collective understanding of cancer biology and ultimately support better care for patients in the future."
