e17134 Background: Despite being the most prevalent malignancy among men, prostate cancer (PC) lacks FDA-approved primary prevention therapies. Current options, such as 5-alpha reductase inhibitors (5-ARIs), offer only modest risk reduction—approximately 23–25%—as shown in the PCPT and REDUCE trials. Emerging preclinical data indicate that GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) may offer a novel alternative by inhibiting oncogenic pathways and inducing apoptosis in PC cell lines. To investigate this potential, we conducted the first real-world comparative analysis of PC incidence among high-risk men receiving GLP-1RAs versus 5-ARIs. Methods: Using the TriNetX global collaborative network (150M patients), we identified men with elevated PC risk (genetic risk, family history, or high-risk demographics/comorbidities). GLP-1RA users (cohort A) were propensity-score-matched 1:1 with 5-ARI users (cohort B) on demographics, metabolic comorbidities, baseline PSA, BMI and HbA1c. A minimum of 2 month’s prescription was required. The primary endpoint was incident PC. The secondary endpoint was adverse events related to GLP-1RA and 5-ARI. Patients with outcomes before the study inclusion were excluded. Sensitivity and subgroup analyses were performed, adjusting for screening frequency and baseline BMI. Kaplan–Meier curves assessed cumulative incidence, Cox models estimated hazard ratios (HRs, 95% CI), and logistic regression analyzed binary outcomes. Results: After matching, 118,904 high-risk men were identified (59,452 patients per cohort). Cohorts had comparable demographics with a mean age of 48 years, 77% White, 9% Black, and 2% Asian. GLP-1RA users had higher mean A1C (6.3% vs 5.7%) and BMI (38 vs 31), while 5-ARI users had higher mean PSA (3.1 vs 1.3). Median follow-up was 7 years for both cohorts. PC incidence was 2.10% (1,245/59,189) in GLP-1RAs users versus 2.85% (1,689/59,164) in 5-ARI users (NNT 133). GLP-1RAs were associated with a 20% reduction in PC risk (HR: 0.803; CI: 0.746–0.864). Safety outcomes showed that GLP-1RAs were associated with an increased risk of erectile dysfunction and nausea/vomiting. In contrast, GLP-1RAs were associated with lower risks of abdominal pain and constipation. No significant associations were observed for gynecomastia or diarrhea. Conclusions: In this large-scale, head-to-head comparison, GLP-1RAs demonstrated superior efficacy over 5-ARIs, providing a 20% relative risk reduction in PC incidence among high-risk men. Given the global surge in GLP-1RA utilization, these findings suggest a profound public health opportunity: the ability to achieve systemic oncologic protection through existing metabolic therapies. If validated by prospective trials, GLP-1RAs could transition from metabolic blockbusters to a cornerstone of precision oncology and primary cancer prevention.

10520 Background: Therapeutic options for breast cancer (BC) prevention for high-risk women remain limited, and not all eligible patients opt for endocrine therapy due to concerns related to adverse events (AEs). GLP1RAs are widely used for obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus; their role in BC primary prevention (PP) in high-risk women with obesity has not been evaluated. Methods: Using the TriNetX Global Network (150 million patients, 108 organizations), we analyzed de-identified records of high-risk women aged 18–90 years with a BMI ≥ 30 who had health care encounters between January 1, 2000, and January 1, 2025, identified via ICD-10 codes. High risk was defined as at least one of the following: genetic predisposition to BC, family history of BC, atypical ductal hyperplasia, atypical lobular hyperplasia, lobular carcinoma in situ, or dense breasts. Patients were grouped as having GLP1-RA use or no GLP-1RA use. Patients with a prior history of BC or use of endocrine therapy were excluded. GLP-1RA users were propensity score-matched 1:1 with non-users based on demographics, comorbidities, social determinants of health, lifestyle factors, BMI, HbA1c, and prior breast imaging. Incident BC served as the primary endpoint, with key AEs as secondary measures. Kaplan–Meier analysis and Cox proportional hazards models were utilized to assess outcomes, which were further validated through subgroup and sensitivity analyses. Results: Among 80,480 high-risk women with a BMI ≥ 30, 46,581 were assigned to each cohort. Baseline demographics were balanced between cohorts (mean age: 46 years, 70% White, 21% Black). Median follow-up was 2,790 vs 2,630 days for GLP-1RA users and non-users, respectively. BC incidence was 2.95% in GLP-1RA users (1,164/39,495 cases) vs 3.01% in non-users (1,200/39,057 cases) (3.27 vs. 3.57 cases per 1,000 person-years; HR 0.844; 95% CI, 0.779–0.915). GLP-1RA users exhibited an increased risk of endometrial cancer (HR 1.273; 95% CI, 1.088–1.491) and osteoporosis (HR 1.124; 95% CI, 1.054–1.199). No significant association was observed for venous thromboembolism. Gastrointestinal AEs were significantly higher in the GLP-1RA cohort. Conclusions: GLP-1RA use was associated with a modest reduction in BC incidence among high-risk women with obesity in this real-world study. Prospective randomized trials are needed to validate these associations.

10507 Background: Despite advances in understanding leukemogenesis, no validated primary prevention strategies exist. Obesity is a dose-dependent risk factor for leukemia. Emerging data implicate epigenetic regulators, specifically the histone methyltransferase GLP (EHMT1), as a driver of leukemic survival; its inhibition induces cell death in CLL and promotes differentiation in AML. We present the first real-world analysis evaluating GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) for the primary prevention of leukemia in high-risk populations. Methods: Using the TriNetX global research network (150 million patients across 108 healthcare organizations), we identified adults at elevated leukemia risk based on ≥1 factor (prior chemo/radiation, MDS, MPN, family history, genetic syndromes, tobacco use, or BMI ≥30). Patients with ≥2 months of GLP-1RA use were propensity-matched 1:1 to non-users by demographics, comorbidities, and prior chemotherapy. The primary endpoint was the incidence of ALL, AML, CLL, or CML; secondary endpoints were adverse events related to GLP-1RA. Individuals with pre-existing leukemia were excluded. Cox proportional hazards models and sensitivity analyses were used to assess associations. Sensitivity and subgroup analysis confirmed robustness. Results: Of 426,670 high-risk individuals, 213,335 were matched to each cohort; standardized mean differences were <0.1 for all covariates. Across >1.2 million person-years of follow-up, GLP-1RA use was associated with a 63% risk reduction in incident AML (47/213,300 vs 75/213,261; HR 0.37, 95% CI 0.26–0.53; p < 0.001) and a 50% reduction in ALL (42/213,304 vs 53/213,277; HR 0.50, 95% CI 0.33–0.75; p = 0.001). The protective effect for AML remained significant when restricted to patients with prior chemotherapy exposure and was independent of baseline BMI. No significant reductions were observed for CML or CLL. While GI adverse events were higher in the GLP-1RA cohort, the protective signal was consistent across age and ethnic subgroups. Conclusions: This is the first large-scale study to demonstrate a significant reduction in incident AML and ALL using GLP-1 receptor agonists in high-risk patients. By linking clinical metabolic intervention to the EHMT1 epigenetic pathway, these findings provide a novel, scalable pharmacologic strategy for the primary prevention of acute leukemias, potentially transforming the management of high-risk and obese populations.
