Abstract
INTRODUCTION Amivantamab-vmjw (amivantamab) is a bispecific EGFR/MET antibody approved for patients with advanced NSCLC with EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations, after prior therapy. Nevertheless, the benefits and safety of amivantamab in other EGFR-mutant lung cancer, with or without osimertinib, and with concurrent radiation therapy, are less known. METHODS We queried the MD Anderson Lung Cancer GEMINI, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, University of California Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center, and Stanford Cancer Center's database for patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC treated with amivantamab, not on a clinical trial. The data analyzed included initial response, duration of treatment, and concomitant radiation safety in overall population and prespecified subgroups. RESULTS A total of 61 patients received amivantamab. Median age was 65 (31-81) years old; 72.1% were female; and 77% were patients with never smoking history. Median number of prior lines of therapies was four. On the basis of tumor's EGFR mutation, 39 patients were in the classical mutation cohort, 15 patients in the exon 20 cohort, and seven patients in the atypical cohort. There were 37 patients (58.7%) who received amivantamab concomitantly with osimertinib and 25 patients (39.1%) who received concomitant radiation. Furthermore, 54 patients were assessable for response in the overall population; 19 patients (45.2%) had clinical response and disease control rate (DCR) was 64.3%. In the classical mutation cohort of the 33 assessable patients, 12 (36.4%) had clinical response and DCR was 48.5%. In the atypical mutation cohort, six of the seven patients (85.7%) had clinical response and DCR was 100%. Of the 13 assessable patients in the exon 20 cohort, five patients (35.7%) had clinical response and DCR was 64.3%. Adverse events reported with amivantamab use were similar as previously described in product labeling. No additional toxicities were noted when amivantamab was given with radiation with or without osimertinib. CONCLUSIONS Our real-world multicenter analysis revealed that amivantamab is a potentially effective treatment option for patients with EGFR mutations outside of exon 20 insertion mutations. The combination of osimertinib with amivantamab is safe and feasible. Radiation therapy also seems safe when administered sequentially or concurrently with amivantamab.

Abstract
Key points
Due to its macrocyclic properties, lorlatinib has increased penetrance of the blood brain barrier compared to most other tyrosine kinase inhibitors.
Lorlatinib is a promising therapy in patients with non‐small cell lung cancer with ALK or ROS1 rearrangements, particularly in patients with evidence of intracranial disease.
However, behavioral and central nervous system side effects are common with lorlatinib.
Lorlatinib can rarely result in severe psychosis, as with the presented case.
In patients with lung cancer on lorlatinib, medication‐induced psychosis must be considered among the common differentials, including: the psychological response of patients to the cancer itself, somatic symptoms from brain metastases, and unmasking of underlying psychiatric disorders.

Abstract
Molecular modifiers of KRASG12C inhibitor (KRASG12Ci) efficacy in advanced KRASG12C-mutant NSCLC are poorly defined. In a large unbiased clinicogenomic analysis of 424 patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), we identified and validated coalterations in KEAP1, SMARCA4, and CDKN2A as major independent determinants of inferior clinical outcomes with KRASG12Ci monotherapy. Collectively, comutations in these three tumor suppressor genes segregated patients into distinct prognostic subgroups and captured ∼50% of those with early disease progression (progression-free survival ≤3 months) with KRASG12Ci. Pathway-level integration of less prevalent coalterations in functionally related genes nominated PI3K/AKT/MTOR pathway and additional baseline RAS gene alterations, including amplifications, as candidate drivers of inferior outcomes with KRASG12Ci, and revealed a possible association between defective DNA damage response/repair and improved KRASG12Ci efficacy. Our findings propose a framework for patient stratification and clinical outcome prediction in KRASG12C-mutant NSCLC that can inform rational selection and appropriate tailoring of emerging combination therapies. SIGNIFICANCE In this work, we identify co-occurring genomic alterations in KEAP1, SMARCA4, and CDKN2A as independent determinants of poor clinical outcomes with KRASG12Ci monotherapy in advanced NSCLC, and we propose a framework for patient stratification and treatment personalization based on the comutational status of individual tumors.

Abstract
Predicting in vivo response to antineoplastics remains an elusive challenge. We performed a first-of-kind evaluation of two transcriptome-based precision cancer medicine methodologies to predict tumor sensitivity to a comprehensive repertoire of clinically relevant oncology drugs, whose mechanism of action we experimentally assessed in cognate cell lines. We enrolled patients with histologically distinct, poor-prognosis malignancies who had progressed on multiple therapies, and developed low-passage, patient-derived xenograft models that were used to validate 35 patient-specific drug predictions. Both OncoTarget, which identifies high-affinity inhibitors of individual master regulator (MR) proteins, and OncoTreat, which identifies drugs that invert the transcriptional activity of hyperconnected MR modules, produced highly significant 30-day disease control rates (68% and 91%, respectively). Moreover, of 18 OncoTreat-predicted drugs, 15 induced the predicted MR-module activity inversion in vivo. Predicted drugs significantly outperformed antineoplastic drugs selected as unpredicted controls, suggesting these methods may substantively complement existing precision cancer medicine approaches, as also illustrated by a case study. SIGNIFICANCE Complementary precision cancer medicine paradigms are needed to broaden the clinical benefit realized through genetic profiling and immunotherapy. In this first-in-class application, we introduce two transcriptome-based tumor-agnostic systems biology tools to predict drug response in vivo. OncoTarget and OncoTreat are scalable for the design of basket and umbrella clinical trials. This article is highlighted in the In This Issue feature, p. 1275.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Irreversible allosteric KRAS p.G12C inhibitors (KG12Ci) such as sotorasib and adagrasib have revolutionized the therapeutic landscape of advanced KG12C-mutant NSCLC, however individual responses are heterogeneous and curtailed by innate and adaptive/acquired resistance. Molecular determinants of KG12Ci efficacy in NSCLC are poorly defined. We dissected the impact of major KG12C co-mutations and explored the effects of less prevalent co-alterations on the clinical activity of KG12Ci in the largest treated cohort to date of patients (pts) with advanced NSCLC. Key findings were validated in preclinical KG12C NSCLC models.
Methods: Baseline clinico-genomic features and clinical outcome data from pts with stage IV KG12C NSCLC (ECOG PS 0-2) treated with single-agent KG12Ci were collected retrospectively from 20 centers in the US and Europe. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate PFS and OS and differences were assessed with the log-rank test. Hazard ratios (HR) and their 95% CI were estimated using a Cox proportional hazards model stratified for clinical co-variates. The impact of selected co-alterations on sotorasib efficacy was assessed in syngeneic (C57BL/6) KG12C NSCLC models.
Results: 411 eligible pts were included in the study. Median age was 68 years, 77% of pts had received both platinum-based chemotherapy and PD-(L)1 inhibitors and 35% had brain metastases. 83% of pts received sotorasib. ORR with KG12Ci was 32.4% (95% CI, 27.9-37.1), PFS was 5.1m (95% CI, 4.5-5.6) and OS was 10.2m (95% CI, 8.4-12.1). Co-alterations in KEAP1, SMARCA4 and CDKN2A/B were each associated with significantly shorter PFS (KEAP1: 2.8m vs 5.5m, HR 2.50, P<0.001; SMARCA4: 1.7m vs 5.5m, HR 2.64, P=0.001; CDKN2A/B: 2.3m vs 5.3m, HR 2.57, P<0.001) and OS with KG12Ci even after adjustment for clinical covariates. STK11 co-mutations without concurrent KEAP1 alterations did not impact clinical outcomes with KG12Ci. In an exploratory analysis, co-mutations in DNA damage repair (DDR) genes and genes encoding components of the ATRX/DAXX/EZH2 pathway were associated with improved KG12Ci efficacy, whereas PI3K/AKT/MTOR/PTEN alterations and missense ROS1/ALK/BRAF/NTRK1-3 mutations resulted in inferior outcomes. The impact of SMARCA4 and DDR gene inactivation was validated in isogenic syngeneic KG12CNSCLC models; additional co-alterations are under evaluation. Integration of KEAP1/SMARCA4/CDKN2A/B co-mutations identified a subgroup (KSCMUT, 37.6% of all pts) with significantly shorter PFS (2.7m vs 6.2m, P<0.001) and OS (6.3m vs 14.6m, P<0.001) that accounted for 57.3% of pts with primary refractory (PFS≤3m) disease.
Conclusions: Co-mutations in KEAP1, SMARCA4 and CDKN2A/2B define subgroups of KG12C NSCLC pts with markedly distinct outcomes with KG12Ci monotherapy. Tailoring of KG12C inhibitor-anchored therapeutic strategies and patient stratification should take into account the co-mutation status of individual tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Amivantamab, a fully humanized EGFR-MET bispecific antibody, has antitumor activity in diverse EGFR- and MET-driven non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and a safety profile consistent with associated on-target activities. Infusion-related reaction(s) (IRR[s]) are reported commonly with amivantamab. We review IRR and subsequent management in amivantamab-treated patients. METHODS Patients treated with the approved dose of intravenous amivantamab (1050 mg, <80 kg; 1400 mg, ≥80 kg) in CHRYSALIS-an ongoing, phase 1 study in advanced EGFR-mutated NSCLC-were included in this analysis. IRR mitigations included split first dose (350 mg, day 1 [D1]; remainder, D2), reduced initial infusion rates with proactive infusion interruption, and steroid premedication before initial dose. For all doses, pre-infusion antihistamines and antipyretics were required. Steroids were optional after the initial dose. RESULTS As of 3/30/2021, 380 patients received amivantamab. IRRs were reported in 256 (67%) patients. Signs/symptoms of IRR included chills, dyspnea, flushing, nausea, chest discomfort, and vomiting. Most of the 279 IRRs were grade 1 or 2; grade 3 and 4 IRR occurred in 7 and 1 patients, respectively. Most (90%) IRRs occurred on cycle 1, D1 (C1D1); median time-to-first-IRR onset during C1D1 was 60 min; and first-infusion IRRs did not compromise subsequent infusions. Per protocol, IRR was mitigated on C1D1 with holding of infusion (56% [214/380]), reinitiating at reduced rate (53% [202/380]), and aborting infusion (14% [53/380]). C1D2 infusions were completed in 85% (45/53) of patients who had C1D1 infusions aborted. Four patients (1% [4/380]) discontinued treatment due to IRR. In studies aimed at elucidating the underlying mechanism(s) of IRR, no pattern was observed between patients with versus without IRR. CONCLUSION IRRs with amivantamab were predominantly low grade and limited to first infusion, and rarely occurred with subsequent dosing. Close monitoring for IRR with the initial amivantamab dose and early intervention at first IRR signs/symptoms should be part of routine amivantamab administration.

Abstract
BRAF/MEK inhibition remains standard of care for treatment of BRAF-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Although common adverse events (AEs) have been reported through clinical trials and ongoing clinical practice, only a handful of reports have detailed unusual adverse events associated with these medications. This report presents a patient with BRAF-mutated NSCLC treated with dabrafenib and trametinib who experienced 2 unusual AEs-Sweet syndrome and MEK-associated retinopathy-that responded to steroid treatment. The patient was able to continue BRAF/MEK inhibition through a coordinated multidisciplinary approach. This case highlights the importance for all clinicians to recognize unusual AEs associated with BRAF/MEK inhibition, particularly in the setting of expanded use for all BRAF V600E-mutated solid tumors.

Abstract
Treatment with immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) often fails to elicit durable antitumor immunity. Recent studies suggest that ICB does not restore potency to terminally dysfunctional T cells, but instead drives proliferation and differentiation of self-renewing progenitor T cells into fresh, effector-like T cells. Antitumor immunity catalyzed by ICB is characterized by mobilization of antitumor T cells in systemic circulation and tumor. To address whether abundance of self-renewing T cells in blood is associated with immunotherapy response, we used flow cytometry of peripheral blood from a cohort of patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with ICB. At baseline, expression of T-cell factor 1 (TCF1), a marker of self-renewing T cells, was detected at higher frequency in effector-memory (CCR7-) CD8+ T cells from patients who experienced durable clinical benefit compared to those with primary resistance to ICB. On-treatment blood samples from patients benefiting from ICB also exhibited a greater frequency of TCF1+CCR7-CD8+ T cells and higher proportions of TCF1 expression in treatment-expanded PD-1+CCR7-CD8+ T cells. The observed correlation of TCF1 frequency in CCR7-CD8+ T cells and response to ICB suggests that broader examination of self-renewing T-cell abundance in blood will determine its potential as a noninvasive, predictive biomarker of response and resistance to immunotherapy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION CD73 is overexpressed in EGFR-mutated NSCLC and may promote immune evasion, suggesting potential for combining CD73 blockers with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). This phase 1b-2 study (NCT03381274) evaluated the anti-CD73 antibody oleclumab plus the third-generation EGFR TKI osimertinib in advanced EGFR-mutated NSCLC. METHODS Patients had tissue T790M-negative NSCLC with TKI-sensitive EGFR mutations after progression on a first- or second-generation EGFR TKI and were osimertinib naive. They received osimertinib 80 mg orally once daily plus oleclumab 1500 mg (dose level 1 [DL1]) or 3000 mg (DL2) intravenously every 2 weeks. Primary end points included safety and objective response rate by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1. RESULTS By July 9, 2021, five patients received DL1 and 21 received DL2. Of these patients, 60.0% and 85.7% had any-grade treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) and 20.0% and 14.3% had grade 3 TRAEs, respectively. No dose-limiting toxicities, serious TRAEs, or deaths occurred. Four patients were T790M positive on retrospective circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) testing; three had objective partial responses. In patients who were T790M negative in tumor and ctDNA, objective response rate was 25.0% at DL1 and 11.8% at DL2 (all partial responses); response durations at DL2 were 14.8 and 16.6 months. In patients receiving DL2, excluding those who were T790M positive by ctDNA, median progression-free survival was 7.4 months, and median overall survival was 24.8 months. DL2 was the recommended phase 2 dose. CONCLUSIONS Oleclumab plus osimertinib was found to have moderate activity with acceptable tolerability in previously treated patients with advanced EGFR-mutated NSCLC.

Abstract
The advent of immune checkpoint inhibition has pushed the treatment paradigm for resectable non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) toward neoadjuvant therapy. A growing number of promising trials have examined the utility of neoadjuvant immunotherapy, both alone and in combination with other modalities such as radiation therapy (RT) and chemotherapy. The phase II LCMC3 and NEOSTAR trials demonstrated a role for neoadjuvant immunotherapy in inducing meaningful pathologic responses, and another phase II trial established the feasibility of combining neoadjuvant durvalumab with RT. Significant interest in neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy resulted in the conduct of multiple successful phase II trials including the Columbia trial, NADIM, SAKK 16/14, and NADIM II. Across these trials, neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy led to high rates of pathologic response and improved surgical outcomes without compromising surgical timing or feasibility. CheckMate-816, which was a randomized phase III trial studying neoadjuvant nivolumab in addition to chemotherapy, definitively established a benefit for neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy compared to chemotherapy alone for resectable NSCLC. Despite the growing literature and success of these trials, several outstanding questions remain, including the relationship between pathologic response and patient survival, the role of biomarkers such as programmed death ligand 1 and circulating tumor DNA in determining patient selection and treatment course, and the utility of additional adjuvant therapies. Longer follow-up of CheckMate-816 and other ongoing phase III trials may help address these questions. Ultimately, the complexity of managing resectable NSCLC highlights the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to patient care.

Abstract
e20587 Background: The combined use of molecular biomarker testing and targeted precision therapeutics has led to improved survival in lung cancer. Broadening access to national guideline recommended comprehensive molecular testing requires overcoming the challenges of inadequate tissue biopsies, which can lead to the need for additional procedures and ultimately, delays in initiation of care. We show Percepta Genomic Atlas identifies key molecular alterations in transbronchial needle aspirate (TBNA) and transbronchial biopsy (TBB) samples of lung or lymph node collected during the initial diagnostic bronchoscopy. Methods: Percepta Genomic Atlas combines the whole exome TruSeq RNA Exome and targeted AmpliSeq Focus DNA assays (Illumina) for a comprehensive gene panel including ALK, RET, ROS1, NTRK1/3, MET, EGFR, BRAF, KRAS and HER2. TruSight Oncology 500 DNA and AmpliSeq Focus RNA assays (Illumina) were used as reference assays. DNA and RNA were extracted from samples with the AllPrep Micro kit (Qiagen) and analyzed by Percepta Genomic Atlas and reference assays. 94 biopsy samples (73 TBNA and 21 TBB from 71 patients undergoing a diagnostic bronchoscopy for suspected lung cancer were collected into RNAprotect (Qiagen) under an IRB approved protocol. Local molecular testing results from FFPE biopsy samples taken during the same bronchoscopy procedure were collected. Results: RNA and DNA in sufficient amounts to run the Percepta Genomic Atlas and reference assays was obtained from 85 of 94 lung biopsies from 63 of 71 patients. Percepta Genomic Atlas identified pathogenic variants in 29 bronchoscopy biopsy samples from 23 patients including single nucleotide variants in EGFR, KRAS, BRAF and PIK3CA, an EGFR exon 19 deletion/insertion and copy number amplications in AR, EGFR, CDK4, CCND1, MYC, MYCN and PIK3CA. No fusions were identified. This results in a 100% sensitivity for detecting pathogenic alterations when compared to reference assay results. When comparing Percepta Genomic Atlas results to local molecular testing of bronchoscopy samples performed as part of routine clinical care, we found 100% concordance with 7 of 7 alterations detected in 7 patients, including mutations in EGFR, KRAS and BRAF. In a further 4 patients, Percepta Genomic Atlas and local multi-gene NGS testing results agreed, with neither assay identifying guideline recommended alterations. Conclusions: Using a combination of whole exome RNA and targeted DNA sequencing, Percepta Genomic Atlas detects the clinically actionable mutations in patients with non-small cell lung cancer using fresh tissue specimens collected during bronchoscopic tissue sampling, with high concordance to standard of care testing. By initiating broad molecular testing at the time of the bronchoscopy, Percepta Genomic Atlas may provide timelier results for patients with lung cancer.

Abstract
9006 Background: Initial results with the amivantamab (ami) and lazertinib (laz) regimen showed encouraging efficacy in patients (pts) whose disease progressed after standard-of-care osimertinib (osi) and platinum-based chemotherapy (pt-chemo; Shu Ann Oncol 2021; 32:S949-1039; 1193MO). We present updated results of this population (Cohort A) from the CHRYSALIS-2 study (NCT04077463). Methods: Cohort A evaluated ami and laz in pts with EGFR exon 19 deletion or L858R NSCLC whose disease progressed on 1st/2nd-line osi followed by pt-chemo as last line of therapy (target population, n=106) and among a more heavily-pretreated population (n=56) whose disease progressed after osi and pt-chemo ± other therapies without regard to number and sequence of these therapies. Pts received 1050 mg IV ami (1400 mg, ≥80 kg) + 240 mg oral laz. Investigator (INV)- and blinded independent central review (BICR)-assessed response per RECIST v1.1 is reported for efficacy-evaluable pts, defined as pts who initiated study treatment on or before 17 Mar 2021, allowing for ≥6 mo of follow-up for response durability. Results: As of 6 Nov 2021, 162 pts were enrolled in Cohort A (median 62 y, 65% women, 61% Asian, median 3 [range, 2–14] prior lines). Median time between last osi treatment to first dose of ami + laz was 6.3 mo and 2.0 mo for the target and heavily-pretreated populations, respectively. Of 50 efficacy-evaluable pts in the target population, the overall response rate (ORR) by BICR was 36% (95% CI, 23–51), with 1 complete response (CR) and 17 partial responses (PRs), and the clinical benefit rate (CBR) was 58% (95% CI, 43–72); full results for all enrolled pts will be reported at the meeting. Median duration of response (mDOR) was not reached based on BICR. At a median follow-up of 8.3 mo, 7 responders (39%) have achieved a DOR lasting ≥6 mo by BICR. INV-assessed responses were consistent with BICR. Of 56 efficacy-evaluable pts in the heavily-pretreated population (8.7-mo median follow-up), ORR by INV was 29% (95% CI, 17–42), with 1 CR and 15 PRs. CBR was 55% (95% CI, 42–69) and mDOR was 8.6 mo (95% CI, 4.2–NR). BICR results are pending. Preliminary evidence of CNS antitumor activity was reported among 8 pts with baseline brain lesions (7 non-target, 1 target) who had not received radiation within 1 year prior to study enrollment. Most frequent adverse events (AE) were infusion-related reaction (65%), paronychia (49%), rash (41%), and stomatitis (39%). Most common grade ≥3 treatment-related AEs (TRAEs) were infusion-related reactions (7%), acneiform dermatitis (5%), and hypoalbuminemia (4%). TRAEs leading to discontinuation of either or both ami and laz occurred in 12% and 7%, respectively. Conclusions: Among an unselected population that has exhausted SOC osi and pt-chemo, ami and laz demonstrates encouraging antitumor activity with a manageable safety profile. Clinical trial information: NCT04077463.

Abstract
e20593 Background: Epidermal growth factor receptor-mutated [ EGFR(+)] NSCLC has historically been associated with young, non-smoking patients, especially those of Asian descent. Our medical center serves a diverse population within New York City and includes patients from neighborhoods that are predominantly Hispanic/Latino. We therefore sought to describe the population of patients with EGFR(+) NSCLC treated at our cancer center. Methods: We used our single institution lung cancer database to identify 2092 patients diagnosed with NSCLC between 2013-2019; of these, 375 had EGFR(+) disease. We collected retrospective data on patient demographics and disease outcomes. The chi-square test and t-tests were performed to compare between subgroups of patients. Results: Between 2013-2019, 17.9% of patients diagnosed with NSCLC at our center had an identified EGFR mutation. Incidence of EGFR mutations was higher in Asian NSCLC patients (46.7%) compared to Black (13.1%), white (16.8%), and Hispanic (16.0%) NSCLC patients. Within the 375 patients diagnosed with EGFR(+) NSCLC, however, the distribution was 62.1% white (233 patients), 13.6% Asian (51 patients), 11.2% Hispanic (42 patients), 8.3% Black (31 patients), and 4.8% unknown/other race (18 patients). Over half (57.7%) of patients with EGFR(+) NSCLC had a history of smoking, and most (68.9%) were female. Median age at diagnosis was 71 years. Frequency of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)-sensitive mutations (L858R and exon 19 deletion) was 85.7% in Hispanic patients, 91.7% in Asian patients, 76.4% in white patients, and 71.0% in Black patients. Significantly more Hispanic EGFR(+) patients were diagnosed at Stage IV (65.4%) compared to 40.4% of Asian patients, 36.7% of Black patients, and 25.7% of white patients (p < 0.02 for all comparisons). Among patients diagnosed with Stage IV disease, Hispanic patients had worse average survival compared to non-Hispanic patients (19.4 months vs. 27.9 months, p = 0.01). Conclusions: EGFR-mutant NSCLC is thought to be especially common among patients who are younger, Asian, and/or never smokers. Our population of EGFR(+) NSCLC, however, encompasses a racially diverse group of patients, most of whom were older at the time of diagnosis and many of whom had a history of smoking. This population of patients, most of whom harbor a TKI-sensitive mutation, supports the use of routine mutational testing that is agnostic to patient demographics. Our data also suggest that Hispanic patients in particular are diagnosed with more advanced disease and have shorter survival; the reasons for such disparities within the EGFR(+) NSCLC population warrant further study.

Abstract
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) osimertinib has significantly prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) in EGFR-mutant lung cancer patients, including those with brain metastases. However, despite striking initial responses, osimertinib-treated patients eventually develop lethal metastatic relapse, often to the brain. Although osimertinib-refractory brain relapse is a major clinical challenge, its underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Using metastatic models of EGFR-mutant lung cancer, we show that cancer cells expressing high intracellular S100A9 escape osimertinib and initiate brain relapses. Mechanistically, S100A9 upregulates ALDH1A1 expression and activates the retinoic acid (RA) signaling pathway in osimertinib-refractory cancer cells. We demonstrate that the genetic repression of S100A9, ALDH1A1, or RA receptors (RAR) in cancer cells, or treatment with a pan-RAR antagonist, dramatically reduces brain metastasis. Importantly, S100A9 expression in cancer cells correlates with poor PFS in osimertinib-treated patients. Our study therefore identifies a novel, therapeutically targetable S100A9-ALDH1A1-RA axis that drives brain relapse.

Abstract
Introduction The 2018 updated molecular testing guidelines for patients with advanced lung cancer incorporated ALK immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis as an equivalent to fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) method recommended in 2013. Nevertheless, no specific recommendation for alternative methods was proposed owing to insufficient data. The aim of this study was to compare the results of ALK IHC, FISH, RNA next-generation sequencing (NGS), and RNA in situ hybridization (ISH) with available clinical data. Methods A search for lung carcinomas with ALK testing by greater than or equal to one modality (i.e., ALK IHC, FISH, NGS) was performed; a subset underwent RNA ISH. When available, clinical data were recorded. Results The results were concordant among all performed testing modalities in 86 of 90 cases (95.6%). Of the four discordant cases, two were ALK positive by FISH but negative by IHC, RNA NGS, and RNA ISH. The remaining two cases failed RNA NGS testing, one was IHC negative, FISH positive, RNA ISH negative and the second was IHC positive, FISH positive, RNA ISH equivocal. RNA NGS identified one rare and one novel ALK fusion. Sufficient therapy data were available in 10 cases treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors; three had disease progression, including one with discordant results (FISH positive, RNA NGS negative, IHC negative, RNA ISH negative) and two with concordant ALK positivity among all modalities. Conclusions Our results reveal high concordance among IHC, RNA NGS, and RNA ISH. In cases of discordance with available RNA NGS, FISH result was positive whereas IHC and ISH results were negative. On the basis of our data, multimodality testing is recommended to identify discrepant results and patients (un)likely to respond to tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

Abstract
Hepatoid adenocarcinoma of the lung (HAL) is a rare extrahepatic tumor characterized by histologic features of hepatocellular carcinoma. The standard treatment for nonresectable HAL has not been established, though traditionally, these tumors have been treated with platinum-based chemotherapy. Here, we report the use of combination chemotherapy and immunotherapy in a patient presenting with metastatic HAL and an elevated alpha-fetoprotein. The patient had an excellent clinical, radiographic, and biomarker response. This case supports the use of chemoimmunotherapy, which is now the standard of care first-line treatment in NSCLC, for HAL.

Abstract
PURPOSE Non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 20 insertion (Exon20ins) mutations exhibits inherent resistance to approved tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Amivantamab, an EGFR-MET bispecific antibody with immune cell–directing activity, binds to each receptor's extracellular domain, bypassing resistance at the tyrosine kinase inhibitor binding site. METHODS CHRYSALIS is a phase I, open-label, dose-escalation, and dose-expansion study, which included a population with EGFR Exon20ins NSCLC. The primary end points were dose-limiting toxicity and overall response rate. We report findings from the postplatinum EGFR Exon20ins NSCLC population treated at the recommended phase II dose of 1,050 mg amivantamab (1,400 mg, ≥ 80 kg) given once weekly for the first 4 weeks and then once every 2 weeks starting at week 5. RESULTS In the efficacy population (n = 81), the median age was 62 years (range, 42-84 years); 40 patients (49%) were Asian, and the median number of previous lines of therapy was two (range, 1-7). The overall response rate was 40% (95% CI, 29 to 51), including three complete responses, with a median duration of response of 11.1 months (95% CI, 6.9 to not reached). The median progression-free survival was 8.3 months (95% CI, 6.5 to 10.9). In the safety population (n = 114), the most common adverse events were rash in 98 patients (86%), infusion-related reactions in 75 (66%), and paronychia in 51 (45%). The most common grade 3-4 adverse events were hypokalemia in six patients (5%) and rash, pulmonary embolism, diarrhea, and neutropenia in four (4%) each. Treatment-related dose reductions and discontinuations were reported in 13% and 4% of patients, respectively. CONCLUSION Amivantamab, via its novel mechanism of action, yielded robust and durable responses with tolerable safety in patients with EGFR Exon20ins mutations after progression on platinum-based chemotherapy.

Abstract
TPS9132 Background: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have improved clinical outcomes for patients with EGFR mutant (EGFRm) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC); however, patients will inevitably progress due to acquired resistance mutations. Lazertinib is a potent, brain-penetrant, 3rd-generation EGFR TKI with efficacy against activating EGFR and resistance T790M mutations. Amivantamab is an EGFR-MET bispecific antibody with immune cell-directing activity that targets activating EGFR and MET mutations. Synergistic inhibition of the EGFR by targeting the receptor’s extracellular domain with amivantamab and the kinase domain with lazertinib, may lead to more potent inhibition of the EGFR pathway and potentially delay resistance. In the ongoing CHRYSALIS phase 1 study (NCT02609776), preliminary antitumor activity has been demonstrated with the combination of lazertinib and amivantamab in patients with treatment-naïve and osimertinib-relapsed EGFRm NSCLC (Cho Ann Oncol 2020;31:S813). Methods: CHRYSALIS-2 is an ongoing phase 1/1b open-label study of lazertinib as monotherapy and in combination with amivantamab in patients with advanced EGFRm NSCLC (NCT04077463; https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04077463 ). Phase 1 of the study has confirmed the safety and tolerability of lazertinib monotherapy in Japanese patients. The objective of phase 1b is to characterize the preliminary efficacy of lazertinib in combination with amivantamab in subpopulations of patients with EGFRm NSCLC (Phase 1b Expansion Cohorts) at the recommended combination dose of 1050 mg (1400 mg, ≥80 kg) IV amivantamab dosed weekly in cycle 1 (28-day cycle), every other week thereafter, and 240 mg oral lazertinib QD. Global enrollment in Phase 1b Expansion Cohorts is currently ongoing. Expansion Cohort A is enrolling patients who have progressed on 1st or 2nd-line osimertinib followed by platinum chemotherapy; Expansion Cohort B is enrolling patients with EGFR exon 20 insertion (Exon20ins) mutation who have progressed on prior therapy; and Expansion Cohort C is enrolling patients with uncommon non-Exon20ins EGFR mutations (i.e., S768I, L861Q, G719X) who are treatment-naïve or received 1st or 2nd-generation EGFR TKI as last therapy. The primary endpoints of the study are frequency of dose-limiting toxicity for phase 1 and 1b combination cohorts, and overall response rate for phase 1b expansion cohorts. Key secondary endpoints include safety (adverse events), pharmacokinetics, duration of response, clinical benefit rate, progression-free survival, and overall survival. Safety assessments will include monitoring AEs, clinical laboratory tests, ophthalmologic examination, ECG, and ECHO/MUGA. Blood samples will be collected to access PK. Tumor response will be assessed every 6 weeks by the investigator using RECIST, v1.1. Clinical trial information: NCT04077463.

Abstract
TPS2669 Background: Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog ( KRAS) p.G12C mutation is an oncogenic driver mutation in several solid tumors. Sotorasib is a specific, irreversible, small molecule inhibitor of KRASG12C that has demonstrated durable clinical benefit in NSCLC, with mild and manageable toxicities. The combination of sotorasib with other anticancer therapies may enhance antitumor efficacy. This master protocol is designed to evaluate safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and efficacy of multiple sotorasib combinations in patients (pts) with KRASp.G12C mutated solid tumors. Herein, we overview 1 monotherapy and 11 combination cohorts. Methods: This is a phase 1b, open-label study evaluating sotorasib alone and in combination regimens (Table) in pts with advanced KRAS p.G12C mutated solid tumors. Dose exploration will evaluate the safety and tolerability of sotorasib alone and in combination regimens; dose expansion will then verify the safety and tolerability profile of sotorasib regimens and assess antitumor efficacy. Key eligibility criteria include locally-advanced or metastatic solid tumor with KRAS p.G12C mutation identified through molecular testing in pts who have received ≥1 lines of prior systemic therapy. Primary endpoints include dose-limiting toxicities and treatment-emergent or treatment-related adverse events. Secondary endpoints include PK profile of combination regimens and efficacy (eg, objective response, disease control, duration of response, progression-free survival, and duration of stable disease assessed per RECIST 1.1). Enrollment began in December 2019 and is ongoing. Clinical trial information: NCT04185883. [Table: see text]

Abstract
Background Treatment paradigms for large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) of the lung are based largely upon small retrospective studies and smaller prospective trials. It is unclear if these tumors behave like non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or small cell lung cancer (SCLC). Data are lacking with regard to the role of radiotherapy (RT). U. S. guidelines recommend that LCNEC be treated as a NSCLC. We sought to perform a cross-sectional study of LCNEC cases to understand treatment paradigms and outcomes in this disease. Methods The Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results database was queried for cases of stage I-III pulmonary LCNEC diagnosed 2004-2013. Treatment groups were defined as no surgery, RT alone, surgery alone, and surgery + RT. The Cox-proportional hazards regression model was used to compare overall survival and cause-specific survival (OS/CSS), stratified by AJCC 6th Staging. Factors that were significant on univariable analysis were included in multivariable analysis. Results We identified 1,523 cases of LCNEC, with 748, 177, and 598 cases of stage I, II, and III disease, respectively. In stage I and II disease, RT was associated with improved survival for non-surgical patients, but not for those who underwent surgery. In stage I disease, the adjusted hazard ratios for OS for RT alone, surgery, and surgery + RT were 0.39, 0.21, and 0.22, respectively (P<0.001). In stage II disease, the adjusted hazard ratios for RT alone, surgery, and surgery + RT were 0.51 (P=0.15), 0.39 (P=0.004), and 0.38 (P=0.01), respectively. For patients with stage III disease, RT was associated with improved survival in surgical and non-surgical patients. The adjusted hazard ratios for RT alone, surgery, and surgery + RT were 0.49, 0.43, and 0.36, respectively (P<0.001). Conclusions Our findings indicate that non-metastatic LCNEC may be treated as a NSCLC with respect to RT. Prospective studies are necessary to increase our understanding of optimal treatment regimens.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are important new therapeutic options for the treatment of malignancy. Existing data on the relative safety of ICI treatment in patients with pre-existing autoimmune disease (AID) are limited. METHODS In this retrospective study utilizing an oncology medical claims database, we determined the rates of treatment with immunosuppressive agents and hospitalization within 180 days of treatment with ICIs (pembrolizumab, nivolumab, and ipilimumab) in patients both with and without AID. Patients had diagnoses of either malignant melanoma or lung cancer. Immunosuppressive agents evaluated included oral prednisone and intravenous methylprednisolone. RESULTS 124 cancer patients with AID and 1896 cancer patients without AID met inclusion criteria for oral prednisone analysis, while 284 patients with AID and 3230 patients without AID met inclusion criteria for all other analyzes. Following treatment with PD-1 inhibitors, rates of treatment with both oral prednisone and intravenous methylprednisolone within 180 days of ICI treatment were significantly increased in the AID group relative to the control group (oral prednisone: 16.7% treatment in AID vs 8.3% in non-AID, p=0.0048; intravenous methylprednisolone: 8.4% treatment in AID vs 3.7% in non-AID, p=0.0012). Rates of hospitalization were significantly increased in melanoma patients with AID relative to melanoma patients without AID following treatment with PD-1 inhibitors (24.1% in AID vs 5.8% in non-AID, p<0.0001). CONCLUSION Cancer patients with AID have higher rates of hospitalization and treatment with immunosuppressive agents following treatment with ICI therapy compared with patients with no AID. This suggests that patients with AID may have increased toxicity risk while being treated with checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Further prospective clinical trials are needed to determine safety.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Lung cancer is the third most common malignancy that develops in patients following solid organ transplantation and is the leading cause of cancer deaths in the general population. The aims of this study are to examine the characteristics of patients who developed lung cancer following solid organ transplantation at our institution and to compare their outcomes to those of lung cancer patients without a history of transplant. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a single-institution retrospective study of 44 solid organ transplant recipients who developed lung cancer and compared their characteristics to a cohort of 74 lung cancer patients without a history of transplant. We performed propensity score weighted analyses to compare outcomes between the two groups, including a cox proportional hazards model of overall survival. RESULTS 52 % of post-transplant patients who developed lung cancer were diagnosed with stage III or IV disease. In the propensity score weighted analysis that accounted for age at diagnosis, sex, lung cancer stage at diagnosis, Charlson comorbidity index score, and ECOG performance score, post-transplant patients were more likely to have squamous cell histology (p < 0.01) and had worse overall survival compared to the non-transplant cohort (HR = 1.88, 95 % CI 1.13-3.12, p = 0.02). The difference in survival remained significant after accounting for differences in lung cancer histology and treatment (HR = 2.40, 95 % CI 1.27-3.78, p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS When compared to non-transplant patients with lung cancer, post-transplant patients have worse overall survival after accounting for differences in age, sex, lung cancer stage, comorbidities, and performance status. This survival difference is not solely attributable to differences in tumor histology and treatments received. This may suggest that post-transplant malignancies are more aggressive and difficult to treat.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine concordance/discordance between morphology and molecular testing (MT) among synchronous pulmonary carcinomas using targeted next generation sequencing (NGS), with and without comprehensive molecular review (CMR), vs analyses of multiple singe genes (non-NGS). METHODS Results of morphologic and MT assessment were classified as concordant, discordant, or indeterminate. For discordant cases, comprehensive histologic assessment (CHA) was performed. RESULTS Forty-seven cases with 108 synchronous tumors were identified and underwent MT (NGS, n = 23 and non-NGS, n = 24). Histology and MT were concordant, discordant, and indeterminate in 53% (25/47), 21% (10/47), and 26% (12/47) of cases, respectively. CHA of the 10 discordant cases revised results of three cases. CONCLUSIONS There is discordance between histology and MT in a subset of cases and MT provides an objective surrogate for staging synchronous tumors. A limited gene panel is sufficient for objectively assessing a relationship if the driver mutations are distinct. Relatedness of mutations require CMR with a larger NGS panel (eg, 50 genes).

Abstract
9036 Background: Exon 14 skipping mutations in the mesenchymal-epithelial transition ( MET) gene are reported in 2-5% of lung adenocarcinomas and are mutually exclusive of other driver mutations. Small-molecule MET tyrosine kinase inhibitors, capmatinib and tepotinib, showed durable responses in previously treated and treatment-naïve patients harboring MET-exon-14 skipping mutations. Studies suggest that for detection of MET-ex14 mutations, DNA-based assays alone may be sub-optimal when compared to RNA-based NGS assays. We compared the performance of DNA and RNA-based assays for detection of MET-ex14 variants. Methods: We examined NGS-based profiling data of lung adenocarcinomas (or when this diagnosis could not be excluded) to identify MET-ex14 mutations missed by DNA but identified by RNA analysis. The carcinomas were profiled by a DNA-based NGS panel that targets MET exons 2, 14, 16, 18 and 19. Cases without driver mutations were reflexed to an NGS-based RNA fusion panel (Archer’s Anchored Multiplex PCR). Results: Over a 21-month period, MET-ex14 skipping events were detected in 16/644 (2.5%) lung carcinomas by DNA profiling. RNA analysis on driver-negative cases identified 9 additional MET-ex14 mutations. All 16 MET-ex14 DNA variants occurred at or around the intron 14 splice donor site, as the assay did not include the intron 13 splice acceptor site. Clinical characteristics of the MET positive cohort include a male to female ratio of 0.8:1.0, an average age of 76.5 years and 52% non-smoker status. All tumors were adenocarcinomas (including one with a < 10% spindle/pleomorphic component) with the exception of 3 adenosquamous carcinomas and 1 squamous cell carcinoma. Conclusions: DNA based NGS-panels can potentially miss MET-ex14 skipping events in lung carcinomas, when the primers do not target both 3′ splice site of intron 13, and the 5′ splice site of intron 14. A reflex work flow interrogating RNA fusions can potentially capture such events. The clinical and molecular characterization of the variants detected only by RNA NGS assays warrants further exploration.

Abstract
9512 Background: EGFR exon20ins-mutated NSCLC is generally refractory to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and is associated with poor prognosis. Amivantamab (JNJ-61186372) is a novel, fully human anti-EGFR-MET bispecific antibody whose mechanism of action can target both EGFR- and MET-driven disease and has shown monotherapy activity in patients (pts) with diverse EGFR mutant disease characterized by EGFR C797S, T790M, exon20ins, and MET amplification. We present preliminary results of pts with advanced NSCLC harboring exon20ins mutations from CHRYSALIS, an ongoing phase 1 study of amivantamab (NCT02609776). Methods: This study comprises a dose escalation phase in pts with advanced NSCLC and a dose expansion phase in pts with EGFR- and MET-mutated disease. This analysis includes all enrolled pts with exon20ins disease who received the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of 1050 mg (1400 mg, pts ≥80 kg) amivantamab. Response was assessed by investigator per RECIST v1.1. Results: As of 30 Oct 2019, 50 pts with exon20ins mutations had received amivantamab at the RP2D. 39/50 pts were response-evaluable and had ≥2 disease assessments or had discontinued therapy prior to the assessment period; among these pts, 29 had prior platinum-based chemotherapy (PBCT). Median age for response-evaluable pts was 61 y (40–78), 51% were female, and median prior lines was 1 (0–7). In the 50 pts harboring exon20ins mutations treated at the RP2D, the most common adverse events (AEs) reported were rash (72%), infusion related reaction (60%), and paronychia (34%). Additional EGFR-related AEs included stomatitis (16%), pruritus (14%), and diarrhea (6%). Grade ≥3 AEs were reported in 36% of pts; 6% were treatment-related. One grade 3 diarrhea and no grade ≥3 rash was reported. Among the 39 response-evaluable pts, with a median follow-up of 4 months (1–26), the overall response rate (≥partial response [PR]) was 36% (95% CI, 21–53), and 41% (95% CI, 24–61) for the 29 pts who had prior PBCT. The clinical benefit rate (≥PR or stable disease ≥11 weeks) was 67% for response-evaluable pts and 72% for pts who had prior PBCT. Among all 14 responders, median duration of response was 10 months (1–16), with ongoing responses in 9 pts at data cutoff. Median progression-free survival was 8.3 months (95% CI, 3.0–14.8) for response-evaluable pts and 8.6 months (95% CI, 3.7–14.8) for pts who had prior PBCT. Conclusions: Amivantamab demonstrates robust and durable antitumor activity in pts with exon20ins disease, with a manageable safety profile. Clinical trial information: NCT02609776 .

Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. It is divided into sub-categories based upon morphology, immunostaining pattern, biology, molecular profile, and/or treatment options. Up until the early 2000s when driver mutations with targeted therapies were identified in a subset of adenocarcinomas, the most critical distinction of lung carcinomas was driven by differences in treatment between small cell carcinoma (SCC) and nonsmall cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). The distinction between SCC and NSCLC remains critical in the 21st century for management, especially for advanced stage cancer. In the vast majority of cases, morphological features are sufficient to separate SCC from other types of lung cancers. In some instances, however, cytomorphological features and immunohistochemical overlap with other tumors, limited sample availability, and/or crush artifact pose diagnostic challenges. The aim of this review is to highlight salient features of SCC and ancillary studies to distinguish it from common and uncommon potential mimickers, as well as provide updates in genomics and management.

Abstract
Background MET exon 14 alterations are actionable oncogenic drivers. Durable responses to MET inhibitors are observed in patients with advanced MET exon 14-altered lung cancers in prospective trials. In contrast, the activity of immunotherapy, PD-L1 expression and tumor mutational burden (TMB) of these tumors and are not well characterized. Patients and methods Patients with MET exon 14-altered lung cancers of any stage treated at two academic institutions were identified. A review of clinicopathologic and molecular features, and an analysis of response to single-agent or combination immune checkpoint inhibition were conducted. PD-L1 immunohistochemistry was carried out and TMB was calculated by estimation from targeted next-generation sequencing panels. Results We identified 147 patients with MET exon 14-altered lung cancers. PD-L1 expression of 0%, 1%-49%, and ≥50% were 37%, 22%, and 41%, respectively, in 111 evaluable tumor samples. The median TMB of MET exon 14-altered lung cancers was lower than that of unselected non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLCs) in both independently evaluated cohorts: 3.8 versus 5.7 mutations/megabase (P < 0.001, n = 78 versus 1769, cohort A), and 7.3 versus 11.8 mutations/megabase (P < 0.001, n = 62 versus 1100, cohort B). There was no association between PD-L1 expression and TMB (Spearman's rho=0.18, P = 0.069). In response-evaluable patients (n = 24), the objective response rate was 17% (95% CI 6% to 36%) and the median progression-free survival was 1.9 months (95% CI 1.7-2.7). Responses were not enriched in tumors with PD-L1 expression ≥50% nor high TMB. Conclusion A substantial proportion of MET exon 14-altered lung cancers express PD-L1, but the median TMB is lower compared with unselected NSCLCs. Occasional responses to PD-1 blockade can be achieved, but overall clinical efficacy is modest.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) accounts for approximately 3% of lung malignancies. There are limited data on the epidemiology and best treatment practices for this malignancy. This study aimed to be the largest cohort with the most up-to-date analysis of the epidemiology of LCNEC. PATIENTS AND METHODS The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database was queried to identify cases of LCNEC diagnosed from 2010 through 2015, reflecting years the American Joint Committee on Cancer 7th edition staging system was in use. Using these data, we compared the epidemiology, demographics, clinical characteristics, and survival times of LCNEC with small-cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) and non-SCLC (NSCLC). Trends in incidence and mortality were recorded from 2004 to 2015. RESULTS A total of 195,148 cases of lung cancer, including 1681 (0.9%) cases of LCNEC, were analyzed. LCNEC was more common among male subjects, and disease usually presented at stage IV (55%). Brain metastasis occurred more frequently in LCNEC (19.2%) than SCLC (16.7%, P < .001) or NSCLC (13%, P < .001). Incidence increased by 0.011 people per 100,000 per year, primarily of stage IV disease. Annual mortality from LCNEC doubled over the time period studied. Survival in patients with stage I-III LCNEC mirrored survival trends of patients with NSCLC, whereas stage IV LCNEC behaved similarly to SCLC. CONCLUSION LCNEC generally presents at more advanced stages than NSCLC but earlier than SCLC. Stage I-III LCNEC behaves similarly to NSCLC, whereas stage IV is more akin to SCLC. LCNEC incidence is increasing. Despite this, it remains poorly studied and did not demonstrate an improved prognosis in our cohort.

Abstract
102 Background: Addition of pembrolizumab (P) to platinum-doublet chemotherapy [carboplatin (or cisplatin) and pemetrexed (CP)] prolongs overall survival and is a standard of care (SOC) for the 1st line treatment of metastatic EGFR/ALK wild-type (wt) non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (mnsNSCLC). Despite widespread adoption of the CPP regimen, molecular determinants of clinical benefit from the addition of P to CP remain poorly defined. We previously identified genomic alterations in STK11/LKB1 as a major driver of primary resistance to PD-1/PD-L1 blockade in mnsNSCLC. Here, we examine the impact of STK11/LKB1 alterations on clinical outcomes with CPP chemo-immunotherapy. Methods: 497 pts with mnsNSCLC and tumor genomic profiling encompassing STK11/LKB1 from 17 academic institutions in the US and Europe were included in this study. Clinical outcomes were collected for two distinct patient cohorts: a) 377 pts treated with first-line CPP (or > 1st line following FDA-approved TKIs) that were alive for 14 days thereafter and b) 120 STK11/LKB1-mt pts that received CP prior to regulatory approval of CPP. Results: Among 377 CPP-treated pts, STK11/LKB1 genomic alterations (N = 102) were associated with significantly shorter PFS (mPFS 4.8m vs 7.2m, HR 1.5, 95% CI 1.1 to 2.0; P = 0.0063) and shorter OS (mOS 10.6m vs 16.7m, HR 1.58, 95% CI 1.09 to 2.27; P = 0.0083) compared with STK11/LKB1-wt tumors (N = 275). ORR also differed significantly between the two groups (32.6% vs 44.7%, P = 0.049). Similar results were obtained when limiting the analysis to EGFR and ALK-wt tumors (N = 333). Importantly, in pts with STK11/LKB1-mt mnsNSCLC, addition of pembrolizumab to CP did not improve PFS (mPFS 4.8m vs 4.3m, HR 1.13, 95% CI 0.83 to 1.54, P = 0.75) or OS (mOS 10.6m vs 10.3m, HR 1.03, 95% CI 0.71 to 1.49, P = 0.79) compared to CP alone. Conclusions: In mnsNSCLC, STK11/LKB1 alterations define a subgroup of pts with inferior clinical outcomes with CPP and lack of benefit from the addition of pembrolizumab to CP chemotherapy. Novel therapeutic strategies are required to establish effective antitumor immunity in STK11/LKB1-mutant NSCLC.

Abstract
9082 Background: Objective response rates (ORR) to chemotherapy beyond the first-line for advanced NSCLC are low (5-10%). Pre-clinical studies suggest that some chemotherapies may act, in part, through immune mediated mechanisms. Additionally, results from phase I/II studies of chemotherapy combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) suggest high response rates ( > 50%) and potential synergy. It is unknown whether chemotherapy is more efficacious when given after ICIs. Methods: We reviewed demographics, imaging, treatment history, and clinical course for all patients at our institution with a diagnosis of metastatic NSCLC who received at least one dose of nivolumab, pembrolizumab, atezolizumab, or durvalumab prior to December 8, 2016. Patients who received any subsequent chemotherapy were included for analysis. Objective response was determined by RECIST v1.1, and date of progression was determined radiographically or clinically (treatment discontinuation with documented clinical deterioration). Results: 145 patients received at least one dose of any ICI, and 38 patients received subsequent chemotherapy. The median age was 68 years (range 44-88). Six chemotherapy-naïve patients received carboplatin + pemetrexed +/- bevacizumab. There were 3 partial responses (PR) including one exceptional response that is ongoing after 2 years. Among 32 chemotherapy non-naïve patients, the median number of prior chemotherapy regimens was 2 (range 1-6). Post-ICI chemotherapy included docetaxel + ramucirumab (n = 12), vinorelbine (n = 7), gemcitabine-based chemotherapy (n = 6), carboplatin doublets (n = 4), pemetrexed + bevacizumab (n = 2), and paclitaxel (n = 1). Six patients had documented poor performance status and died within 1 month of starting treatment. The ORR was 25% (1CR, 7PR), median time to progression was 116 days, and 9 patients (28%) experienced stable disease (SD) or better lasting > 150 days. Exceptional responses occurred across regimens. Nine patients received a further line of chemotherapy, with 3 ongoing PR or SD lasting > 100 days. Conclusions: For NSCLC, chemotherapy response rates may be higher when administered after an ICI.

Abstract
8512 Background: MET exon 14 skipping alterations ( METΔ14) are present in 4% of NSCLCs. Response to MET inhibition has been observed in ongoing prospective trials (44% response rate, phase 1 trial of crizotinib; Drilon et al ASCO 2016), however responses to other types or therapy, such as immunotherapy, is unknown. We evaluated the immunophenotype of METΔ14 lung cancers and response to PD-(L)-1-based immunotherapy. Methods: Pts with recurrent/metastatic NSCLC were eligible. METΔ14 was identified by broad hybrid capture-based next-generation sequencing (MSK-IMPACT). PD-L1 expression was determined by immunohistochemistry. Response to immune therapy was evaluated by RECIST v1.1. Results: 63 pts with METΔ14-positive non-small cell lung cancers were identified; 41 (65%) had sufficient tissue for PD-L1 analysis. Patient characteristics: median age 71 years, 58% female, median pack year smoking 5.85 years, histology: 73% (30/41) adenocarcinoma, 20% (8/41) pleomorphic carcinoma, 7% (3/41) squamous cell. Tumor PD-L1 expression was ≥50% in 44% (18/41, 95% CI 30-59%), 1-49% in 17% (7/41, 95% CI 8-32%), and < 1 in 39% (16/41, 95% CI 26-54%). The median age for patients with METΔ14 and PD-L1 positive (≥1%) tumors was 65 years (range 49-87); 60% (15/25) of patients were female; Histology: 72% (18/25) adenocarcinoma, 24% (6/25) sarcomatoid carcinoma, and 4% (1/25) squamous cell carcinoma. Immunotherapy was given to 15 pts: nivolumab (5), pembrolizumab (3), atezolizumab (2), durvalumab (1), and ipilimumab+nivolumab (4). The overall response rate to immunotherapy was 13% (2/15, 95% CI 3-39%). Overall response was 33% (1/3; 95% CI 6-80%) in patients with tumors PD-L1 ≥50%, and 20% (1/5, 95%CI 2-64%) in patients with tumors PD-L1 0%. Time on therapy ranged from 2 weeks to 9.6+ months. Conclusions: A substantial proportion of NSCLCs harboring METΔ14 alterations express PD-L1. Despite frequent PD-L1 expression, responses to immunotherapy were overall uncommon and lower than that observed with targeted therapy for this genomically defined subset of patients with lung cancers. Further exploration of this subset may reveal important mechanisms of immunotherapy resistance in PD-L1 expressing tumors.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE The link between BRCA mutations and uterine cancer is unclear. Therefore, although risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy (RRSO) is standard treatment among women with BRCA mutations (BRCA+ women), the role of concomitant hysterectomy is controversial. OBJECTIVE To determine the risk for uterine cancer and distribution of specific histologic subtypes in BRCA+ women after RRSO without hysterectomy. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This multicenter prospective cohort study included 1083 women with a deleterious BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation identified from January 1, 1995, to December 31, 2011, at 9 academic medical centers in the United States and the United Kingdom who underwent RRSO without a prior or concomitant hysterectomy. Of these, 627 participants were BRCA1+; 453, BRCA2+; and 3, both. Participants were prospectively followed up for a median 5.1 (interquartile range [IQR], 3.0-8.4) years after ascertainment, BRCA testing, or RRSO (whichever occurred last). Follow up data available through October 14, 2014, were included in the analyses. Censoring occurred at uterine cancer diagnosis, hysterectomy, last follow-up, or death. New cancers were categorized by histologic subtype, and available tumors were analyzed for loss of the wild-type BRCA gene and/or protein expression. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES Incidence of uterine corpus cancer in BRCA+ women who underwent RRSO without hysterectomy compared with rates expected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database. RESULTS Among the 1083 women women who underwent RRSO without hysterectomy at a median age 45.6 (IQR: 40.9 - 52.5), 8 incident uterine cancers were observed (4.3 expected; observed to expected [O:E] ratio, 1.9; 95% CI, 0.8-3.7; P = .09). No increased risk for endometrioid endometrial carcinoma or sarcoma was found after stratifying by subtype. Five serous and/or serous-like (serous/serous-like) endometrial carcinomas were observed (4 BRCA1+ and 1 BRCA2+) 7.2 to 12.9 years after RRSO (BRCA1: 0.18 expected [O:E ratio, 22.2; 95% CI, 6.1-56.9; P < .001]; BRCA2: 0.16 expected [O:E ratio, 6.4; 95% CI, 0.2-35.5; P = .15]). Tumor analyses confirmed loss of the wild-type BRCA1 gene and/or protein expression in all 3 available serous/serous-like BRCA1+ tumors. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Although the overall risk for uterine cancer after RRSO was not increased, the risk for serous/serous-like endometrial carcinoma was increased in BRCA1+ women. This risk should be considered when discussing the advantages and risks of hysterectomy at the time of RRSO in BRCA1+ women.

Abstract
In 2015, the US Food and Drug Administration approved the use of nivolumab for treatment of squamous and nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and pembrolizumab for use in patients with NSCLC tumors that express PD-L1. This commentary discusses issues with these two drugs relative to best practices and target populations.
