239 Background: Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is a rapidly fatal cancer with 5-year overall survival 〈 5%. 5-10% of pancreatic cancers occur in patients with family history of disease, and 5-27% of these familial cancers are BRCA associated, with defects in Homologous Recombination Repair (HRR). In breast and ovarian cancer, BRCA mutations may be associated with increased risk for brain metastasis (BM). BM is rare in pancreatic cancer, but it is suggested HRR deficient pancreatic cancer patients may have an increased risk for BM/LC. Methods: We analyzed 3030 prospectively identified patients with pancreatic cancer and HHR mutation germline sequencing data (BRCA1/2, ATM, PALB2) from the Mayo Clinic Pancreatic Cancer SPORE Registry. We used clinical databases (2000-2018) to assess the presence of BM or leptomeningeal carcinomatosis (LC). Unconditional logistic regression analysis, with Odds Ratio (OR) and 95% Confidence Interval (CI), assessed the association between HRR gene germline mutation carrier status and any BM. Results: Of 3030 total pancreatic cancer patients, 8 were diagnosed with clinically evident BM/LC (0.26%), confirming the very low incidence of this metastasis site (Table). Of these, all had BM, and 4 also had LC present. No patients had LC diagnosed without BM present. 175/3030 (5.8%) patients had a germline HHR gene mutation. Of these, 1 patient was a BRCA2 carrier (0.57% of HRR deficient patients). 7 /2763 (0.25%) patients without germline HRR mutations had BM or LC (p = 0.44, OR 2.26; 95% CI: 0.27, 18.49). Conclusions: To our knowledge, this is the largest review of BRCA-associated pancreatic cancer patients with BM or LC. The incidence of BM is rare at 0.27%, with LC at 0.14%. Limitations include likely underdiagnosis given short clinical course and lack of availability of somatic HRR gene status. Our study suggests HRR germline carrier patients may have an increased risk of BM/LC development compared to non-carriers. Given rarity, larger studies should be explored. [Table: see text]
