Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs) with DNA mismatch repair deficiency (MMRd) respond preferentially to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). However, a subset of MMRd PDACs does not respond to these agents. This report describes a patient with PDAC who experienced rapid disease progression suggestive of hyperprogressive disease. The case involved a 63-year-old man carrying a pathogenic germline PMS2 mutation who developed metastatic PDAC. His tumor showed isolated loss of PMS2 expression by immunohistochemistry (IHC). He was treated with pembrolizumab, but his disease rapidly progressed. Whole-genome and transcriptome sequencing of a liver metastasis biopsy, acquired at disease progression, showed a retained wild-type PMS2 allele and hallmarks of microsatellite stability, including low tumor mutational burden and low MSIsensor score. PCR-based microsatellite instability (MSI) testing of the treatment-naïve tumor showed microsatellite stability. The ICI-treated tumor had a lower density of CD8+ T-cell infiltration than the treatment-naïve tumor, which is contrary to the expected evolution with ICI responsiveness. Through this case and a review of the literature, we highlight the low penetrance of PMS2 germline mutations in PDAC and discuss pitfalls in ascertaining MMRd and MSI based on IHC testing alone. An orthogonal confirmatory assay is warranted in the presence of uncommon immunophenotypes, such as isolated PMS2 loss, to optimize selection of patients with PDAC for immunotherapy.
