Abstract
Despite the development of predictive biomarkers to shape treatment paradigms and outcomes, de novo EGFR TKI resistance advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains an issue of concern. We explored clinical factors in 332 advanced NSCLC who received EGFR TKI and molecular characteristics through 65 whole exome sequencing of various EGFR TKI responses including; de novo (progression within 3 months), intermediate response (IRs) and long-term response (LTRs) (durability > 2 years). Uncommon EGFR mutation subtypes were significantly variable enriched in de novo resistance. The remaining sensitizing EGFR mutation subtypes (exon 19 del and L858R) accounted for 75% of de novo resistance. Genomic landscape analysis was conducted, focusing in 10 frequent oncogenic signaling pathways with functional contributions; cell cycle, Hippo, Myc, Notch, Nrf2, PI-3-Kinase/Akt, RTK-RAS, TGF-β, p53 and β-catenin/Wnt signaling. Cell cycle pathway was the only significant alteration pathway among groups with the FDR p-value of 6 × 10-4. We found only significant q-values of < 0.05 in 7 gene alterations; CDK6, CCNE1, CDK4, CCND3, MET, FGFR4 and HRAS which enrich in de novo resistance [range 36-73%] compared to IRs/LTRs [range 4-22%]. Amplification of CDK4/6 was significant in de novo resistance, contrary to IRs and LTRs (91%, 27.9% and 0%, respectively). The presence of co-occurrence CDK4/6 amplification correlated with poor disease outcome with HR of progression-free survival of 3.63 [95% CI 1.80-7.31, p-value < 0.001]. The presence of CDK4/6 amplification in pretreatment specimen serves as a predictive biomarker for de novo resistance in sensitizing EGFR mutation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Standard therapy of advanced non-small-cell lung cancer harboring an activating mutation in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene is treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI). However, for rare and compound mutations of the EGFR gene, the clinical evidence of TKI therapy is still unclear. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 2906 lung cancer samples were analyzed for EGFR mutations during routine analysis between 2010 and 2017. The samples have been investigated by Sanger sequencing and since 2014 by next-generation sequencing. RESULTS We detected EGFR mutations in 408 specimens (14%). Among these, we found 41 samples with rare and 22 with compound mutations. In these 63 samples, 56 different rare EGFR mutations occurred. Information about the clinical outcome was available for 37. Among those with rare mutations, only one patient harboring the mutation p.G874D had disease that responded to first-generation TKI therapy. In contrast, the disease of all patients with compound mutations responded to first- or second-generation TKI therapy. Furthermore, we collected data on clinical relevance regarding TKI therapy from different databases and from an additional literature search, and only found data for 36 of the 56 detected rare mutations. CONCLUSION Information about the clinical outcome of patients with rare and compound EGFR mutations remains limited. At present, second- and third-generation TKIs are available, which may represent new treatment strategies for these patients. Therefore, it is becoming increasingly important to maintain databases concerning rare EGFR mutations.

First-line afatinib for advanced EGFRm+ NSCLC: Analysis of long-term responders in the LUX-Lung 3, 6, and 7 trials. Lung Cancer 2019; 133:10-19. [PMID: 31200814 DOI: 10.1016/j.lungcan.2019.04.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [What about the content of this article?

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In patients with advanced epidermal growth factor receptor mutation-positive (EGFRm+) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), first-line afatinib significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) and objective response vs. platinum-doublet chemotherapy in the phase III LUX-Lung 3 and LUX-Lung 6 trials, and significantly improved PFS, time to treatment failure and objective response vs. gefitinib in the phase IIb LUX-Lung 7 trial. We report post-hoc analyses of efficacy, safety and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in afatinib long-term responders (LTRs) in these trials. METHODS Treatment-naïve patients with stage IIIB/IV EGFRm + NSCLC randomized to afatinib in LUX-Lung 3/LUX-Lung 6/LUX-Lung 7 were included in the analysis. Patients treated with afatinib for ≥ 3 years were defined as LTRs. RESULTS In LUX-Lung 3, LUX-Lung 6, and LUX-Lung 7, 24/229 (10%), 23/239 (10%) and 19/160 (12%) afatinib-treated patients were LTRs. Baseline characteristics were similar to the study populations, except for the proportions of women (LUX-Lung 3/LUX-Lung 6 only; 92/78% vs. 64% overall) and Del19-positive patients (63-79% vs. 49-58% overall). Median treatment duration among LTRs was 50, 56 and 42 months, and median PFS was 49.5, 55.5, and 42.2 months in LUX-Lung 3/LUX-Lung 6/LUX-Lung 7, respectively. Median overall survival could not be estimated. Frequency of afatinib dose reduction was consistent with the LUX-Lung 3/LUX-Lung 6/LUX-Lung 7 overall populations. PROs were stable in LTRs, with slight improvements after 3 years of afatinib treatment vs. baseline scores. CONCLUSIONS In the LUX-Lung 3/LUX-Lung 6/LUX-Lung 7 trials, 10-12% of afatinib-treated patients were LTRs. Long-term afatinib treatment was independent of tolerability-guided dose adjustment and had no detrimental impact on safety or PROs.
