The goal of this analysis is to improve upon the clinical model of OS by incorporating ctDNA pathogenic genetic alterations (PGAs). Methods: Data from the A031201 phase 3 trial of enzalutamide+/- abiraterone were used to develop and validate the CG model of OS. Cell-free DNA was isolated from plasma and analyzed using a 69-gene targeted DNA-sequencing assay for detection of ctDNA PGAs. Genetic features were identified based on feature importance using a random survival forest and the final CG model was trained including clinical and selected genetic factors. Model discrimination was assessed using time-dependent area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (tAUC). Results: Data were available on 776 patients. In addition to clinical variables, the model included in this order: gains in AR and the AR enhancer, MYC, RSPO2, and losses and/or PGAs of ZBTB16, PTEN, MSH6, PPP2R2A, NKX3-1, TP53, FANCA, RB1, APC, CHD1, and BRCA2, and ichorCNA tumor fraction. tAUCs in clinical and CG models were 0.72 (95% CI=0.72-0.73) and 0.77 (95% CI= 0.76-0.77). Median OS and the hazard ratios by the three- and four- prognostic risk groups are presented in the table. Conclusions: CG model identified novel ctDNA PGAs prognostic of OS and can be utilized to classify patients into risk groups useful in selecting patients in future trials of mCRPC.
