5045Background: Trophoblastic cell-surface antigen (Trop-2) is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is highly expressed in many solid tumors. Sacituzumab govitecan (IMMU-132) is an antibody-drug conjugate of an anti-Trop-2 humanized antibody with SN-38. Early clinical trials have shown high response rates in a broad range of diseases including triple negative breast and urothelial cancers. We evaluated Trop-2 expression in tumor biopsies and circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from men with mCRPC (metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer). Methods: Trop-2 expression was evaluated from mCRPC biopsies from patients (Pts) treated with abiraterone acetate (AA) on the PROMOTE clinical trial, CTCs from a separate cohort treated with either enzalutamide or AA. Trop-2 CTCs were compared with EpCAM captured CTCs using a microscale technology termed the VERSA (Vertical Exclusion-based Rare Sample Analysis) platform to compare protein and gene expression signatures of resistance to these agents. Results: RNA sequencing...
