Peters S, Loi S, André F, Chandarlapaty S, Felip E, Finn SP, Jänne PA, Kerr KM, Munzone E, Passaro A, Pérol M, Smit EF, Swanton C, Viale G, Stahel RA. Antibody-drug conjugates in lung and breast cancer: current evidence and future directions-a position statement from the ETOP IBCSG Partners Foundation. Ann Oncol 2024; 35:607-629. [PMID: 38648979 DOI: 10.1016/j.annonc.2024.04.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2024] [Accepted: 04/05/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Following the approval of the first antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) in the early 2000s, development has increased dramatically, with 14 ADCs now approved and >100 in clinical development. In lung cancer, trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) is approved in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-mutated, unresectable or metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer, with ADCs targeting HER3 (patritumab deruxtecan), trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2 [datopotamab deruxtecan and sacituzumab govitecan (SG)] and mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (telisotuzumab vedotin) in late-stage clinical development. In breast cancer, several agents are already approved and widely used, including trastuzumab emtansine, T-DXd and SG, and multiple late-stage trials are ongoing. Thus, in the coming years, we are likely to see significant changes to treatment algorithms. As the number of available ADCs increases, biomarkers (of response and resistance) to better select patients are urgently needed. Biopsy sample collection at the time of treatment selection and incorporation of translational research into clinical trial designs are therefore critical. Biopsy samples taken peri- and post-ADC treatment combined with functional genomics screens could provide insights into response/resistance mechanisms as well as the impact of ADCs on tumour biology and the tumour microenvironment, which could improve understanding of the mechanisms underlying these complex molecules. Many ADCs are undergoing evaluation as combination therapy, but a high bar should be set to progress clinical evaluation of any ADC-based combination, particularly considering the high cost and potential toxicity implications. Efforts to optimise ADC dosing/duration, sequencing and the potential for ADC rechallenge are also important, especially considering sustainability aspects. The ETOP IBCSG Partners Foundation are driving strong collaborations in this field and promoting the generation/sharing of databases, repositories and registries to enable greater access to data. This will allow the most important research questions to be identified and prioritised, which will ultimately accelerate progress and help to improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
Lung cancer is still the leading cause of cancer-related mortality. Over the past two decades, the management of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has undergone a significant revolution. Since the first identification of activating mutations in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene in 2004, several genetic aberrations, such as anaplastic lymphoma kinase rearrangements (ALK), neurotrophic tropomyosin receptor kinase (NTRK) and hepatocyte growth factor receptor (MET), have been found. With the development of gene sequencing technology, the development of targeted drugs for rare mutations, such as multikinase inhibitors, has provided new strategies for treating lung cancer patients with rare mutations. Patients who harbor this type of oncologic driver might acquire a greater survival benefit from the use of targeted therapy than from the use of chemotherapy and immunotherapy. To date, more new agents and regimens can achieve satisfactory results in patients with NSCLC. In this review, we focus on recent advances and highlight the new approval of molecular targeted therapy for NSCLC patients with rare oncologic drivers.

Abstract
Precision medicine has helped identify several tumor molecular aberrations to be treated with targeted therapies. These therapies showed substantial improvement in efficacy without excessive toxicity in patients with specific oncogenic drivers with advanced cancers. In metastatic lung cancers, the implementation of broad platforms for molecular tumor sequencing has helped oncology providers identify oncogenic drivers linked with better outcomes when treated upfront with targeted therapies. Mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (MET) alterations are present in up to 60% of non-small cell lung cancer and are associated with a poor prognosis. Capmatinib and tepotinib are currently the only two approved targeted therapies by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for patients with MET exon 14 skipping mutation. Several agents are being developed to tackle an unmet need in patients with MET alterations. Some of these agents are being used in combination with EGFR targeted therapy to mitigate resistance to EGFR inhibitor. These agents are poised to provide new hope for these patients.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer-related deaths globally, with the highest mortality rates among both men and women. Most lung cancers are diagnosed at late stages, necessitating systemic therapy. Modern clinical management of lung cancer relies heavily upon application of biomarkers, which guide the selection of systemic treatment. Here, we provide an overview of currently approved and emerging biomarkers of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), including EGFR, ALK, ROS1, RET, NTRK1-3, KRAS, BRAF, MET, ERBB2/HER2, NRG1, PD-L1, TROP2, and CEACAM5. For practical purposes, we divide these biomarkers into genomic and protein markers, based on the tested substrate. We review the biology and epidemiology of the genomic and proteomic biomarkers, discuss optimal diagnostic assays for their detection, and highlight their contribution to the contemporary clinical management of NSCLC.

Abstract
MET alterations, including MET exon 14 skipping variants, MET amplification, MET overexpression, and MET fusion, play pivotal roles in primary tumorigenesis and acquired resistance to targeted therapies, especially EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors. They represent important diagnostic, prognostic, and predictive biomarkers in many solid tumor types. However, the detection of MET alterations is challenging due to the complexity of MET alterations and the diversity of platform technologies. Therefore, techniques with high sensitivity, specificity, and reliable molecular detection accuracy are needed to overcome such hindrances and aid in biomarker-guided therapies. The current review emphasizes the role of MET alterations as oncogenic drivers in a variety of cancers and their involvement in the development of resistance to targeted therapies. Moreover, our review provides an overview of and recommendations on the selection of various cross-platform technologies for the detection of MET exon 14 skipping variants, MET amplification, MET overexpression, and MET fusion. Furthermore, challenges and hurdles underlying these common detection platforms are discussed.

Abstract
Mesenchymal epithelial transition (MET) factor alteration in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) includes MET exon 14 skipping alteration (METex14 skipping), MET gene amplification, MET gene mutation (mainly kinase domain mutation), MET gene fusion, and MET protein overexpression. The incidence of METex14 skipping in patients with NSCLC is 0.9-4.0%. At present, drugs targeting METex14 skipping have been approved in China and other countries like Japan and USA. Patients with advanced NSCLC should undergo testing, including METex14 skipping, to screen the population with benefit from targeted therapy with MET inhibitors. The incidence of de novo MET gene amplification in NSCLC patients is 1-5%, the incidence of acquired MET gene amplification in epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)-resistant patients is 5-50%, and the incidence in anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) TKI-resistant patients is about 13%; the incidence of MET protein overexpression in NSCLC patients is 13.7-63.7%. Several clinical trials on MET gene amplification and MET protein overexpression are ongoing, which have demonstrated their important guiding significance as biomarkers in the clinical treatment with MET inhibitors. Accurate detection of MET alterations is a prerequisite for MET inhibitor therapy. Since there are many types of MET alterations and related testing methods, as well as many problems and challenges during clinical testing, further sorting and standardization are required. Combined with clinical practice experience, literature review, and expert discussion, the writing group developed this consensus on the three main types of MET alterations (METex14 skipping, MET gene amplification, and MET protein overexpression) in order to guide the practical applications of clinical MET testing.

Abstract
The current landscape of targeted therapies directed against oncogenic driver alterations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is expanding. Patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC can derive significant benefit from EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy, including the third-generation EGFR TKI osimertinib. However, invariably, all patients will experience disease progression with this therapy mainly due to the adaptation of cancer cells through primary or secondary molecular mechanisms of resistance. The comprehension and access to tissue and cell-free DNA next-generation sequencing have fueled the development of innovative therapeutic strategies to prevent and overcome resistance to osimertinib in the clinical setting. Herein, we review the biological and clinical implications of molecular mechanisms of osimertinib resistance and the ongoing development of therapeutic strategies to overcome or prevent resistance.

Abstract
Lung cancer is one of the most common cancers with the highest mortality. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) contributes to around 85% of lung cancer diagnoses (vs. 15% for small cell lung cancer). The treatment of NSCLC has vastly changed in the last two decades since the development of immunotherapy and targeted therapy against driver mutations. As is the nature of malignancy, cancer cells have acquired resistance to these treatments prompting an investigation into novel treatments and new targets. Bispecific antibodies, capable of targeting multiple substrates at once, and antibody-drug conjugates that can preferentially deliver chemotherapy to tumor cells are examples of this innovation. From our initial evaluation, both treatment modalities appear promising.

Abstract
Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are one of the fastest-growing oncology therapeutics, merging the cytotoxic effect of conjugated payload with the high specific ability and selectivity of monoclonal antibody targeted on a specific cancer cell membrane antigen. The main targets for ADC development are antigens commonly expressed by lung cancer cells, but not in normal tissues. They include human epidermal growth factor receptor 2, human epidermal growth factor receptor 3, trophoblast cell surface antigen 2, c-MET, carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 5, and B7-H3, each with one or more specific ADCs that showed encouraging results in the lung cancer field, more in non-small-cell lung cancer than in small-cell lung cancer histology. To date, multiple ADCs are under evaluation, alone or in combination with different molecules (eg, chemotherapy agents or immune checkpoint inhibitors), and the optimal strategy for selecting patients who may benefit from the treatment is evolving, including an improvement of biomarker understanding, involving markers of resistance or response to the payload, besides the antibody target. In this review, we discuss the available evidence and future perspectives on ADCs for lung cancer treatment, including a comprehensive discussion on structure-based drug design, mechanism of action, and resistance concepts. Data were summarized by specific target antigen, biology, efficacy, and safety, differing among ADCs according to the ADC payload and their pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics properties.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To investigate the clinical performance of the AMOY 9-in-1 kit (AMOY) in comparison with a next-generation sequencing (NGS) panel in lung cancer patients. METHODS Lung cancer patients enrolled in the LC-SCRUM-Asia program at a single institution were analyzed for the success rate of AMOY analysis, the detection rate of targetable driver mutations, the turn around time (TAT) from specimen submission to the result reporting, and the concordance rate of results with the NGS panel. RESULTS Of the 406 patients included in the analysis, 81.3% had lung adenocarcinoma. The success rates of AMOY and NGS were 98.5% and 87.8%, respectively. With AMOY, genetic alterations were detected in 54.9% of cases. Of the 42 cases in which NGS analysis failed, targetable driver mutations were detected by AMOY in ten cases through analysis of the same sample. Of the 347 patients for whom the AMOY and NGS panels were successful, 22 showed inconsistent results. In four of the 22 cases, the mutation was detected only in the NGS panel because AMOY did not cover the EGFR mutant variant. Mutations were detected only by AMOY in five of the six discordant pleural fluid samples, with AMOY having a higher detection rate than NGS. The TAT was significantly shorter five days after AMOY. CONCLUSION AMOY had a higher success rate, shorter turnaround time, and higher detection rate than NGS panels. Only a limited number of mutant variants were included; thus be careful not to miss promising targetable driver mutations.

Abstract
Mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (MET) has long been considered as the most crucial and promising driver gene in the occurrence and development of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), except for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), and c-ROS oncogene 1 receptor tyrosine kinase (ROS1). In recent years, therapeutic drugs targeting MET have been continuously developed and applied in clinical practice. First, the curative effect of NSCLC patients with MET exon 14 skipping mutations has been further improved. In addition, when MET amplification occurs after resistance to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) in patients with advanced EGFR-mutant NSCLC, the combination of MET-TKIs and EGFR-TKIs has brought significant survival benefits and many other advances. This article reviews the treatment progress of NSCLC patients with different types of MET variants under different circumstances, which provides reference for the selection of clinical treatment strategies.

[PMID: 36551608 PMCID: PMC9776447 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14246122] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Revised: 12/06/2022] [Accepted: 12/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is increasingly being treated with targeted therapies. Savolitinib (Orpathys®) is highly selective mesenchymal epithelial transition (MET)-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), which is conditionally approved in China for advanced NSCLC with MET exon 14 skipping mutations (METex14). This article summarizes the clinical development of savolitinib, as a monotherapy in NSCLC with METex14 mutation and in combination with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor in post EGFR-TKI resistance NSCLC due to MET-based acquired resistance. Preclinical models demonstrated anti-tumor activities in MET-driven cancer cell line and xenograft tumor models. The Phase Ia/Ib study established an optimized, recommended phase II dose in Chinese NSCLC patients, while TATTON study of savolitinib plus osimertinib in patients with EGFR mutant, MET-amplified and TKI-progressed NSCLC showed beneficial efficacy with acceptable safety profile. In a pivotal phase II study, Chinese patients with pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma, brain metastasis and other NSCLC subtype positive for METex14 mutation showed notable responses and acceptable safety profile with savolitinib. Currently, results from ongoing clinical trials are eagerly anticipated to confirm the efficacious and safety benefits of savolitinib as monotherapy and in combination with EGFR-TKI in acquired resistance setting in advanced NSCLC and its subtypes with MET alterations.

Acquired Resistance to Osimertinib in EGFR-Mutated Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: How Do We Overcome It? Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23136936. [PMID: 35805940 PMCID: PMC9266773 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23136936] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2022] [Revised: 06/20/2022] [Accepted: 06/21/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Osimertinib is currently the preferred first-line therapy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with common epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation and the standard second-line therapy in T790M-positive patients in progression to previous EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Osimertinib is a highly effective treatment that shows a high response rate and long-lasting disease control. However, a resistance to the treatment inevitably develops among patients. Understanding the secondary mechanisms of resistance and the possible therapeutic options available is crucial to define the best management of patients in progression to osimertinib. We provide a comprehensive review of the emerging molecular resistance mechanism in EGFR-mutated NSCLC pre-treated with osimertinib and its future treatment applications.
