Among non-HRRm castrate resistant prostate cancer patients, are there features predictive of response to PROPEL regimen of abiraterone/olaparib?
Answer from: Medical Oncologist at Community Practice
There is a theory that abiraterone can lead to changes in the tumor that could make it susceptible to PARP inhibitors. I understand that the clinical trial suggests that this may be the case, but I think we need more information as to whether or not this is actually happening.

Currently, there are many validated clinical features that can prognosticate outcomes in the first line mCRPC setting during potent AR therapy. See: Armstrong et al., PMID 32527692. Examples include patterns of metastatic spread, LD...

The PFS improvement holds for the non-HRRm population and I have not seen other analyses within the non-HRRm population that predicts for benefit. My suspicion...
