Bevacizumab plus chemotherapy for patients with advanced pulmonary adenocarcinoma harboring EGFR mutations.

ABSTRACT: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and bevacizumab plus chemotherapy were effective for EGFR-mutant patients. However, the appropriated treatment orders remained controvertible. We investigated the efficacy of treatment orders between bevacizumab plus chemotherapy and EGFR-TKIs for EGFR-mutant patients with advanced pulmonary adenocarcinoma.This study involved 40 EGFR-mutant patients with advanced pulmonary adenocarcinoma who were treated with bevacizumab plus carboplatin and paclitaxel (Bev + CP) and EGFR-TKIs in different treatment orders or gemcitabine plus cisplatin (GP) in first-line setting. Seventeen patients were treated with Bev + CP and 10 cases with GP in first-line treatment. Thirteen patients received EGFR-TKIs after first-line Bev + CP regimen, while 13 patients were treated with first-line EGFR-TKIs. Progression-free survival (PFS), the response rate (ORR) and overall survival (OS) were evaluated.Median PFS of Bev + CP treatment was significantly longer in first-line than non-first-line settings (11.7 vs. 5.6 months, P = 0.003). Median OS was 37.8 months for EGFR-mutant patients with first-line Bev + CP followed by second-line EGFR-TKIs and 31.0 months for those with first-line EGFR-TKIs and non-first-line Bev + CP, respectively (P = 0.509). Median PFS was 11.7 (95% CI 10.6-12.8) months for Bev + CP group and 4.7 (95% CI 4.4-5.0) months for GP group with the hazard ratio of 0.17 (P = 0.001). ORR was 70.6 and 50.0% in the two groups, respectively (P = 0.415). However, there was no significant difference in median OS (33.7 vs 27.8 months, P = 0.293).First-line Bev + CP followed by EGFR-TKIs might possibly provide favorable prognosis for EGFR-mutant patients. Bev + CP regimen significantly prolonged PFS in first-line than non-first-line settings. These findings warrant further investigations.

Project description:BackgroundThere was no standard treatment for patients who acquired resistance to osimertinib mediated by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) T790M-cis-C797S. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between different therapeutic strategies and survival outcomes among these patients.MethodsThis retrospective cohort study analyzed 46 patients with metastatic lung adenocarcinoma and EGFR T790M-cis-C797S after osimertinib progression from January 1, 2017 to October 31, 2020. Among them, 13 patients received brigatinib-based therapy, 23 patients received chemotherapy in combination of anti-angiogenics or not, and 10 patients received other targeted treatments like dacomtinib, bevacizumab, or a combined therapy of osimertinib and other targeted drugs.ResultsCompared to other targeted therapy, brigatinib-based therapy (median progression-free survival [mPFS]: 4.40 vs. 1.63 months, hazard ratio [HR] = 0.39, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.21-0.73, p = 0.001) and chemotherapy-based treatment (mPFS: 4.70 vs. 1.63 months, HR = 0.18, 95% CI: 0.06-0.50, p < 0.001) presented a better survival outcome and there was no significant difference between brigatinib-based therapy and chemotherapy-based treatment (mPFS: 4.40 vs. 4.70 months, HR = 1.24, 95% CI: 0.57-2.67, p = 0.58). Chemotherapy combined with anti-angiogenics achieved a better efficacy than only chemotherapy (mPFS: 5.50 vs. 1.03 months, HR = 0.30, 95% CI: 0.11-0.83, p = 0.02). Patients carrying EGFR exon 19 deletion mutation had a longer PFS than those who harboring EGFR exon 21 p.L858R mutation (4.57 vs. 1.03 months, HR = 0.18, 95% CI: 0.06-0.54, p = 0.001), no matter they received brigatinib-based therapy (mPFS: 5.00 vs. 3.23 months, HR = 0.19, 95% CI: 0.01-0.96, p = 0.05) or chemotherapy-based treatment (mPFS: 7.23 vs. 1.03 months, HR = 0.05, 95% CI 0.01-0.49, p < 0.001).ConclusionBrigatinib-based therapy and chemotherapy plus anti-angiogenics could be considered beyond progression from osimertinib therapy. For patients harboring EGFR exon 19 deletion/T790M/cis-C797S mutation, the clinical efficacy was superior to patients harboring EGFR exon 21 p.L858R/T790M/cis-C797S mutation.

Project description:BackgroundFrequent failures observed in some trials comparing the efficacy and safety of osimertinib plus bevacizumab to osimertinib monotherapy in advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) alterations have brought questions.ObjectivesTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of these two treatment regimens in advanced NSCLC patients harboring EGFR mutations.DesignThis study is a systematic review and meta-analysis.Data sources and methodsPubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang, and VIP databases were extensively searched for relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on 14 May 2023. Two researchers independently screened the literature, assessed quality, and extracted data. The primary outcomes were progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and objective response rate (ORR). The secondary outcomes were adverse events (AEs) and PFS stratified by patients' characteristics. STATA 17.0 software (StataCorp LLC, USA) was adopted for meta-analysis.ResultsA total of four RCTs involving 390 patients were included. Overall, the risk of bias across the studies was moderate to low. Pooled results showed that compared to osimertinib alone, the addition of bevacizumab to osimertinib failed to show prolongation of PFS [hazard ratio (HR) = 1.00, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.78-1.27], OS (HR = 1.01, 95% CI: 0.73-1.41), or improvement of the ORR (risk ratio = 1.12, 95% CI: 0.90-1.38), while an increased incidence of some AEs was observed, such as nausea, oral mucositis, hypertension, and proteinuria. Notably, combination treatment did significantly prolong the PFS in the subset of smokers (HR = 0.64, 95% CI: 0.44-0.94). A mild trend toward PFS benefit under the combined regimen was also noted in patients with brain metastases and first-line treatment, though not reaching statistical significance.ConclusionBased on the available evidence, the addition of bevacizumab to osimertinib could not provide additional survival benefits with higher but manageable toxicity for EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients. Osimertinib monotherapy remains the prioritized treatment. Further investigation is warranted.

Project description:BackgroundPulmonary adenocarcinoma, recently benefited by new cytotoxic and molecularly targeted drugs, has been classified by driver mutations, such as EGFR mutations. The aim of this study was to research the proportions of patients treated with first- to third-line chemotherapy and to find influential factors for the introduction of chemotherapy and survival benefit from chemotherapy.Materials and methodsData were collected retrospectively on patients who met the following criteria: adenocarcinoma, diagnosed between June 2007 and March 2015 at our hospital, stage IIIB or IV, and EGFR wild type. A nonchemotherapy group of patients who did not receive chemotherapy was compared with a chemotherapy group of patients who received it. The patients who had received first- to third-line chemotherapy between June 2007 and November 2015 at our hospital were also analyzed.ResultsDuring the study period, 46 patients did not receive chemotherapy, while 148, 89, and 48 received first-, second- and third-line chemotherapy, respectively. As predictive factors for unlikely chemotherapy, multivariate logistic analysis detected Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) ≥2, hemoglobin <13.2 g/dL, creatinine clearance (Ccr) <50.4 mL/min, and CRP ≥0.53 mg/dL. As factors predicting shorter survival after chemotherapy, multivariate Cox proportional-hazard analyses detected age ≥75 years, ECOG PS ≥2, lower lymphocyte counts, and higher CRP for the first line; female, higher neutrophil counts, lower lymphocyte counts, reduced Ccr, hyponatremia, and shorter interval between first- and second-line chemotherapy for the second line; and age ≥75 years, body mass index <18.5 kg/m2, higher neutrophil counts, lower lymphocyte counts, hyponatremia, higher lactate dehydrogenase, and higher CRP for the third line.ConclusionApproximately 76% of patients were treated with first-line chemotherapy. Of those patients, 61% and 34% proceeded to second- and third-line chemotherapy, respectively. For patients with poor PS, anemia, reduced Ccr, and higher CRP, it is difficult to introduce chemotherapy.

Project description:Bevacizumab, combined with platinum-based chemotherapy, has been widely used in the treatment of advanced-stage lung adenocarcinoma (LADC). Although KRAS (V-Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog) mutation is the most common genetic alteration in human LADC and its role in promoting angiogenesis has been well established, its prognostic and predictive role in the above setting remains unclear. The association between KRAS exon 2 mutational status and clinicopathological variables including progression-free survival and overall survival (PFS and OS, respectively) was retrospectively analyzed in 501 Caucasian stage IIIB-IV LADC patients receiving first-line platinum-based chemotherapy (CHT) with or without bevacizumab (BEV). EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor)-mutant cases were excluded. Of 247 BEV/CHT and 254 CHT patients, 95 (38.5%) and 75 (29.5%) had mutations in KRAS, respectively. KRAS mutation was associated with smoking (p = 0.008) and female gender (p = 0.002) in the BEV/CHT group. We found no difference in OS between patients with KRAS-mutant versus KRAS wild-type tumors in the CHT-alone group (p = 0.6771). Notably, patients with KRAS-mutant tumors demonstrated significantly shorter PFS (p = 0.0255) and OS (p = 0.0186) in response to BEV/CHT compared to KRAS wild-type patients. KRAS mutation was an independent predictor of shorter PFS (hazard ratio, 0.597; p = 0.011) and OS (hazard ratio, 0.645; p = 0.012) in the BEV/CHT group. G12D KRAS-mutant patients receiving BEV/CHT showed significantly shorter PFS (3.7 months versus 8.27 months in the G12/13x group; p = 0.0032) and OS (7.2 months versus 16.1 months in the G12/13x group; p = 0.0144). In this single-center, retrospective study, KRAS-mutant LADC patients receiving BEV/CHT treatment exhibited inferior PFS and OS compared to those with KRAS wild-type advanced LADC. G12D mutations may define a subset of KRAS-mutant LADC patients unsuitable for antiangiogenic therapy with BEV.
