An aggressive subtype of PCa is intraductal carcinoma of the prostate (IDC-P), identified in ∼20% of men with PCa. While accurate stratification of these high-risk patients is a clinical necessity, the question arose whether IDC-P could be related to the grade or not. We hypothesized that through the genomic characterization of IDC-P, we could explore the link between IDC-P, grade, and or stage. The objective of this study was to characterize the copy number alterations (CNAs) of IDC-P to aid in the characterization of these high-risk men, while exploring whether IDC-P should be integrated into the grade or stage of PCa. METHODS: We selected 462 radical prostatectomy specimens obtained through The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Specifically, 38 patients were excluded from the original TCGA cohort (n=500) due to stage T4 and incomplete genomic data. We further characterized the TCGA cohort by identifying the IDC-P status (present or not identified) for each patient through the online available tissue. For each patient, IDC-P status was evaluated alongside the CNAs of 488 genes involved in androgen receptor signaling and or carcinogenesis. RESULTS: Out of 462 patients, 41% (191/462) were IDC-P present, and these patients were mostly of high grade (53.9%) and advanced pT3b stage (38.7%). Overall, 38 genes were significantly associated to IDC-P growth, of which, 37 genes were novel and not unique to IDC-P or documented in PCa. Specifically, 10 genes were associated to chromosome 10q deletions, including the well-recognized PTEN, while 28 genes were associated to chromosome 8q amplifications. Of the IDC-P present men identified, 36% (69/191) of these men had multiple deletions and 16% (31/191) of these men had multiple amplifications. CONCLUSIONS: We found significant deletions in 10 genes and amplifications in 28 genes in IDC-P. Importantly, high-risk men with IDC-P have numerous deletions and amplifications in the identified 38 genes. We have identified novel genes, except for PTEN. Indeed, more than 2/3 of these genes are amplified on 8q and their expression could be targeted as biomarkers of IDC-P. We are exploring the presence of these anomalies in PCa and their relation to Grade group (especially cribriform pattern) and or stage. Together, these findings will genomically characterize IDC-P and allow for improved precision in the stratification of these high-risk patients.
