Background: NEPC is a high-grade aggressive form of prostate cancer. We queried whether RB1 mutation status would impact the genomic features of NEPC in RB1 mutated vs non-mutated cases. Methods: From a series of 13,496 cases of clinically advanced PC, we identified 415 cases (3.1%) with a diagnosis of small cell PC or NEPC as determined by the submitting physician. They were sequenced using a hybrid capture-based FDA-approved clinical genomic profiling (CGP) assay to detect all classes of genomic alterations (GA). Tumor mutational burden (TMB) was determined on 0.8 Mbp of sequenced DNA and microsatellite instability (MSI) was determined on 95 loci. PD-L1 expression was determined by IHC (Dako 22C3) with low tumor cell positive staining 1-49% and high staining ≥50% expression. Results: 253 (61%) of NEPC feature GA in RB1 (RB1 mut+). This contrasts with a 5.8% frequency of RB1 GA in the non-NEPC (P <.0001). The RB1 mut+ NEPC featured a slightly greater number of pathogenic GA/tumor than the RB1 mut- NEPC (5.1 vs 4.2). Age and TMPRSS2-ERG fusion frequency were similar between the groups. RB1 Mut- NEPC was associated with significantly higher amplifications (amp) and total GA in AR compared to RB1 mut+ NEPC. RB1 mut+ NEPC featured significantly greater frequency of PTEN GA. GA frequencies in targetable kinases and DNA repair GA including BRCA1/2 and ATM linked to PARP inhibitor (PARPi) response were similar in both groups. For potential immune-oncology (IO) biomarkers, RB1 Mut+ NEPC featured significantly greater frequency of positive PD-L1 expression and lower frequencies of MDM2 and CDK12 GA. CD274 (PD-L1) amplification, MSI-high status and cases with TMB ≥10 mut/Mb were uncommon in both groups. gLOH was higher in RB1 mut+ than RB1 mut- (P =.005). There were more cases of non-European ancestry in the RB1 mut- group. APC I1307K mut were found in 3/162 (1.9%) RB1 mut- NEPC only. Conclusions: In NEPC, the presence of RB1 mutation is associated with various GA that may have clinical relevance. Further study of RB1 status as a guide in trial designs on therapy selection for men with NEPC appears warranted.
