Detecting genomic abnormalities in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) may impact clinical treatment. Here, the authors present whole-genome sequencing of metastatic biopsies from 197 mCRPC patients, highlighting the landscape of microsatellite stability, homologous repair deficiency, and other genomic subgroups.
