Optimizing the sequencing of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

ABSTRACT: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer, accounting for 80-85% of cases. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations are observed in approximately 40% and 20% of patients with NSCLC in Asian and non-Asian populations, respectively. First-generation (gefitinib, erlotinib) and second-generation (afatinib, dacomitinib) EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been standard-of-care (SoC) first-line treatment for patients with sensitizing EGFR mutation positive advanced NSCLC following Phase III trials versus platinum-based doublet chemotherapy. However, most patients treated with first-line first- or second-generation EGFR-TKIs develop resistance. Osimertinib, a third-generation, central nervous system active EGFR-TKI which potently and selectively inhibits both EGFR-TKI sensitizing (EGFRm) and the most common EGFR T790?M resistance mutations, has shown superior efficacy versus first-generation EGFR-TKIs (gefitinib / erlotinib). Osimertinib is now a treatment option for patients with advanced NSCLC harboring EGFRm in the first-line setting, and treatment of choice for patients with T790?M positive NSCLC following disease progression on first-line EGFR-TKIs. The second-generation EGFR-TKI dacomitinib has also recently been approved for the first-line treatment of EGFRm positive metastatic NSCLC. There remains a need to determine appropriate sequencing of EGFR-TKIs in this setting, including EGFR-TKIs as monotherapy or in combination with other TKIs / signaling pathway inhibitors. This review considers the evolving role of sequencing treatments to maximize benefits for patients with EGFRm positive advanced NSCLC.

Project description:BackgroundThis study aimed to investigate the efficacy of immunotherapy, as monotherapy or in combination, comparing to chemotherapy with or without anti-angiogenesis for advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients progressing to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs).MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed patients with advanced NSCLC harboring EGFR mutations who received immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) and/or chemotherapy after EGFR-TKIs failure at Shanghai Chest Hospital between Aug 2016 and Oct 2022. According to the subsequent immunotherapy regimen, the patients were assigned to ICI monotherapy (IM), IO plus anti-angiogenesis (IA), ICI plus chemotherapy (IC), ICI plus chemotherapy plus anti-angiogenesis (ICA). Eligible patients undergoing standard chemotherapy were assigned to chemotherapy plus anti-angiogenesis (CA) and chemotherapy alone (CM). Efficacy was evaluated according to the RECIST 1.1version, and calculated the objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR). Survival curves were plotted using the Kaplan-Meier method, and the median progression-free survival (PFS) was calculated. Differences among survival curves of the six groups were assessed using the log-rank test.ResultsA total of 237 advanced NSCLC patients with EGFR mutations were included in this study. Of the 160 patients who received immunotherapy, 57 received ICI monotherapy, 27 received ICI plus anti-angiogenesis therapy, 43 received ICI plus chemotherapy, and 33 received ICI plus anti-angiogenesis plus chemotherapy. 77 patients received standard chemotherapy, of which 30 received chemotherapy plus anti-angiogenesis and 47 received chemotherapy alone. Patients in ICA group showed significant longer PFS than IM (7.2 vs 1.9 months, P=0.011), IA (7.2 vs 4.8 months, P=0.009) and CM group (7.2 vs 4.4 months, P=0.005). There was no significant difference in PFS between the ICA and IC (7.2 vs 5.6 months, P=0.104) or CA (7.2 vs 6.7 months, P=0.959) group. Meanwhile, the ICA group showed the highest ORR and DCR (36.4% and 90.9%) compared to the other five groups. The IC group had a higher ORR than the IA and CA group (32.6% vs 7.4% vs 10.0%, respectively), but the DCR was comparable (79.1% vs 74.1% vs 76.7%, respectively). The ORR of the CM group was 6.4% and the DCR was 66.0%. IM group showed the lowest ORR and DCR (1.8% and 36.8%). Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) of grade 3 or worse occurred in 9 (27.3%) patients in the ICA group, 6 (20.0%) in the CA group, 7 (14.9%) in the CM group, 5 (11.6%) in the IC group, 5 (8.8%) in the IM group, and 2 (7.4%) in the IA group.ConclusionNSCLC patients with positive EGFR mutations after EGFR-TKIs failure received subsequent immunotherapy plus anti-angiogenesis and chemotherapy are likely to have more benefits in ORR, DCR and mPFS.
