MLH1 mutant | small intestine adenocarcinoma | not applicable | N/A | Guideline | Risk Factor | Lynch syndrome results from germline mutations in DNA mismatch repair genes including MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2, and is associated with increased risk of developing small bowel adenocarcinoma (NCCN.org). | detail... |
MLH1 mutant | colon cancer | not applicable | N/A | Guideline | Risk Factor | Lynch syndrome results from germline mutations in DNA mismatch repair genes including MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2, and is associated with increased risk of developing colon cancer (NCCN.org). | detail... |

MLH1 inact mut | prostate cancer | sensitive | Enzalutamide + Talazoparib | FDA approved | Actionable | In a Phase III trial (TALAPRO-2) that supported FDA approval, Talzenna (talazoparib) plus Xtandi (enzalutamide) improved median radiographic progression-free survival compared to enzalutamide plus placebo (27.9 vs 16.4 mo, HR 0.46, p=0.0003) in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer harboring deficient homologous recombination repair genes including MLH1, with an HR of 0.66 (p=0.12) in patients with non-BRCA mutations treated with Talzenna (talazoparib) (PMID: 37285865; NCT03395197). | 37285865 detail... |
MLH1 inact mut | prostate cancer | sensitive | Enzalutamide + Talazoparib | Guideline | Actionable | Talzenna (talazoparib) plus Xtandi (enzalutamide) is included in guidelines as systemic therapy for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer harboring a pathogenic germline or somatic MLH1 mutation who have not been treated in the setting of castration-resistant prostate cancer (NCCN.org). | detail... |
MLH1 mutant | ovarian cancer | not applicable | N/A | Guideline | Risk Factor | Germline mutations in MLH1 result in Lynch syndrome, which is associated with increased risk of ovarian cancer (NCCN.org). | detail... |
