G protein-coupled receptor, class C, group 5, member D (GPRC5D) has emerged as a novel target for chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy, demonstrating promising efficacy in multiple myeloma (MM). However, disease relapse is still common, and the mechanism of resistance remains poorly understood. In this study, we conducted whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) on MM samples from 10 patients who relapsed after GPRC5D CAR T-cell therapy. Among these patients, 8 had GPRC5D loss, while 2 presented mixed expression (GPRC5D+/-). Genetic alterations were identified in three cases: one had a homozygous deletion in the GPRC5D gene, another had a biallelic loss in the regulatory regions of GPRC5D, and the third had homozygous deletions in both TNFRSF17 and GPRC5D after sequential anti-BCMA and anti-GPRC5D CAR T-cell therapies. No genetic changes were detected at GPRC5D locus in the remaining 7 cases. However, multiple hypermethylation sites were present in the transcriptional regulatory elements of the GPRC5D gene in 5 post-treatment MM samples. In MM cell lines, GPRC5D expression was inversely correlated with methylation levels in its regulatory regions. Furthermore, azacitidine treatment induced GPRC5D mRNA and protein expression in hypermethylated MM cell lines. Our findings highlight that biallelic genetic inactivation and hypermethylation-driven epigenetic silencing are key mechanisms contributing to GPRC5D loss and treatment resistance.
