Background: In part, TMB guides therapeutic decisions on the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in aPC. Most patients (pts) with aPC do not have high TMB (TMB-H) at the time of initial assessment. However, TMB changes over time (from treatment pressure) as pts progress through lines of therapy (LOT) has not been extensively explored in aPC. We describe real world data on changes to blood TMB (bTMB) in pts with aPC exposed to several LOT. Methods: Genomic results from pts with aPC who had ≥1 ctDNA test(s) with TMB analyzed (Guardant360, Guardant Health, Inc) as part of clinical care from Oct 2020 – Jun 2022 were retrospectively queried. Clinical factors were extracted from test requisition forms; pts from Mayo Clinic had additional factors, including intervening treatment, extracted from medical records. High bTMB (TMB-H) was defined as ≥13.4 mut/Mb, as previously reported. Proportions were compared using Fisher’s Exact Test. Results: 316 patients with a median age of 72 (range: 44-91) were analyzed. Initial median TMB for the entire cohort was 8.18 mut/Mb (range: 0.01-268.3). On subsequent test, TMB decreased in 122(40%), increased in 173(55%), of whom 29 (17%) became TMB-H; 21 (7%) had unchanged TMB. Median time between tests was 182 days (range: 21-578). 101 patients with 262 tests and a median age of 71 years (range: 46-87) were clinically annotated in the Mayo cohort of whom 58 had >2 consecutive TMB scores: 25 (43%) had TMB increase, of whom 4 (16%) became TMB-H, 23 (40%) had TMB decrease, 10 (17%) had dynamic changes with increases and decreases. Numeric but not statistically significant differences in clinical factors were observed between groups (p>0.05). Conclusions: In this real world cohort, variation in TMB is seen with increasing LOT. Importantly, nearly 1 in 5 patients with increasing tumor mutational burden develop TMB-H, which may be a clinically actionable finding as these pts become eligible for ICI. Findings underscore the importance of repeat genetic testing with time and LOT.
