Abstract

The diagnostic evaluation of homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) is central to define targeted therapy strategies for patients with ovarian carcinoma. We evaluated HRD in 514 ovarian carcinoma samples by next-generation sequencing of DNA libraries, including BRCA1/BRCA2 and 26,523 single-nucleotide polymorphisms using the standardized Myriad HRD assay, with the predefined cut point of ≥42 for a positive genomic instability score (GIS). All samples were measured in the central Myriad laboratory and in an academic molecular pathology laboratory. A positive GIS was detected in 196 (38.1%) of tumors, whereas 318 (61.9%) were GIS negative. Combining GIS and BRCA mutations, a total of 200 (38.9%) of the 514 tumors were HRD positive. A positive GIS was significantly associated with high-grade serous histology (P < 0.000001), grade 3 tumors (P = 0.001), and patient age <60 years (P = 0.0003). The concordance between both laboratories for the GIS status was 96.9% (P < 0.000001), with a sensitivity of 94.6% and a specificity of 98.4%. Concordance for HRD status was 97.1% (499 of 514 tumors). The percentage of HRD-positive tumors in our real-life cohort was similar to the proportion observed in the recently published PAOLA-1 trial, with high concordance between central and local laboratories. Our results support introduction of the standardized HRD assay in academic molecular pathology laboratories, thus broadening access to personalized oncology strategies for patients with ovarian cancer worldwide.

Currently, the Myriad myChoice assay is the only clinically validated and US Food and Drug Administration–approved molecular HRD test in ovarian cancer. In Europe, the European Medicines Agency has decided against approval of a specific test, but stated that HRD should be determined by an experienced laboratory using a validated test, including LSTs, TAI, and LOH. From the perspective of academic research centers and molecular pathologists, it is important that the complete range of molecular assays is available in a decentralized academic setting. Clinical decisions require the integration of clinical, histopathologic, and molecular information, and many molecular pathologists and clinical oncologists are reluctant to build clinical decisions on molecular assays without the ability to control the assay parameters in their own laboratory environment. Last but not the least, in many European countries including Germany, the structure of the health system does not allow integration of diagnostic procedures performed in central laboratories in other countries. The recent approval of olaparib in combination with bevacizumab for patients newly diagnosed with HRD-positive high-grade ovarian cancer provides a major challenge for personalized medicine. On the one hand, there is an urgent need for access to validated HRD testing for all patients with ovarian cancer; and on the other hand, there is limited access to only one clinically validated assay, which is not broadly available. As a way to resolve evaluated the of the Myriad myChoice assay to an academic molecular pathology laboratory.
