Background and objective: Pembrolizumab plus olaparib did not significantly improve radiographic progression-free survival or overall survival versus a next-generation hormonal agent (NHA) in participants with biomarker-unselected, pretreated metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) in the phase 3 KEYLYNK-010 trial. We present prespecified patient-reported outcomes (PROs) from KEYLYNK-010. Methods: Participants were randomly assigned 2:1 to receive pembrolizumab plus olaparib or an NHA (abiraterone acetate or enzalutamide). PROs were evaluated using the Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form (BPI-SF), Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy- Prostate Cancer (FACT-P), and EuroQol 5-Dimension 5-Level (EQ-5D-5L) questionnaires. The PRO endpoints included time to pain progression (TTPP) as per BPI-SF and the least squares mean (LSM) change from baseline to week 15 in FACT-P total, BPI-SF, and EQ-5D visual analog scale (VAS) scores. Key findings and limitations: The PRO analysis population included 774 participants (pembrolizumab plus olaparib, n = 520; NHA, n = 254). The median follow-up was 18.7 (range, 6.1-31.7) mo. No meaningful differences were observed in TTPP for pembrolizumab plus olaparib versus NHA (median: 13.5 vs 12.0 mo; hazard ratio 0.95; 95% confidence interval 0.72-1.26). From baseline to week 15, no meaningful LSM differences were observed between the treatment groups in FACT-P total, BPI-SF, and EQ-5D VAS scores. Limitations include no formal hypothesis testing. Conclusions and clinical implications: No meaningful differences were observed in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) or disease-related symptom scores for pembrolizumab plus olaparib versus NHA in participants with biomarker-unselected, pretreated mCRPC. These findings suggest that pembrolizumab plus olaparib did not negatively impact HRQoL in participants with pretreated mCRPC. Clinical trial registry: NCT03834519.
