Oncogenic driver mutations in non-small cell lung cancer: Past, present and future.

ABSTRACT: Lung cancer, of which non-small lung cancer is the most common subtype, represents the leading cause of cancer related-death worldwide. It is now recognized that a significant proportion of these patients present alterations in certain genes that drive oncogenesis. In recent years, more of these so-called oncogenic drivers have been identified, and a better understanding of their biology has allowed the development new targeted agents. This review aims to provide an update about the current landscape of driver mutation in non-small-cell lung cancer. Alterations in Kirsten rat sarcoma, epidermal growth factor receptor, MET, anaplastic lymphoma kinase, c-ROS oncogene 1, v-raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B, neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase, human epidermal growth factor 2, neuregulin-1 and rearranged during transfection are discussed, as well as agents targeting these alterations. Current standards of treatment as well as promising future strategies are presented. Currently, more than fifteen targeted agents are food and Drug administration-approved for seven oncogenic drivers in non-small-cell lung cancer, highlighting the importance of actively searching for these mutations. Continuous and future efforts made in defining the biology of each of these alterations will help to elucidate their respective resistance mechanisms, and to define the best treatment strategy and therapeutic sequence.

Targeted therapy for non-small-cell lung cancer: past, present and future.

Project description:Therapy for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer has developed significantly with new awareness of histologic subtype as an important factor in guiding treatment and the development of targeted agents for molecular subgroups harboring critical mutations that spur on cancer growth. In this comprehensive review, we look back at developments in targeted therapy for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer, reviewing in detail efforts, both successful and in some cases less so, to target EGFR, VEGF and ALK. This review provides an overview of where the field stands at present and the areas we feel are most likely to provide challenges and potential successes in the next 5 years including immune checkpoint inhibition, epigenetic therapy and driver mutation targeting.

Immunotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer: Past, present, and future directions.

Project description:Many decades in the making, immunotherapy has demonstrated its ability to produce durable responses in several cancer types. In the last decade, immunotherapy has shown itself to be a viable therapeutic approach for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Several clinical trials have established the efficacy of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB), particularly in the form of anti-programmed death 1 (PD-1) antibodies, anti-cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) antibodies and anti-programmed death 1 ligand (PD-L1) antibodies. Many trials have shown progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) benefit with either ICB alone or in combination with chemotherapy when compared to chemotherapy alone. The identification of biomarkers to predict response to immunotherapy continues to be evaluated. The future of immunotherapy in lung cancer continues to hold promise with the development of combination therapies, cytokine modulating therapies and cellular therapies. Lastly, we expect that innovative advances in technology, such as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, will begin to play a role in the future care of patients with lung cancer.

Targeting <i>KRAS</i> Mutant Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer: Past, Present and Future.

Project description:Lung cancer is the most frequent cancer with an aggressive clinical course and high mortality rates. Most cases are diagnosed at advanced stages when treatment options are limited and the efficacy of chemotherapy is poor. The disease has a complex and heterogeneous background with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounting for 85% of patients and lung adenocarcinoma being the most common histological subtype. Almost 30% of adenocarcinomas of the lung are driven by an activating Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) mutation. The ability to inhibit the oncogenic KRAS has been the holy grail of cancer research and the search for inhibitors is immensely ongoing as KRAS-mutated tumors are among the most aggressive and refractory to treatment. Therapeutic strategies tailored for KRAS+ NSCLC rely on the blockage of KRAS functional output, cellular dependencies, metabolic features, KRAS membrane associations, direct targeting of KRAS and immunotherapy. In this review, we provide an update on the most recent advances in anti-KRAS therapy for lung tumors with mechanistic insights into biological diversity and potential clinical implications.

Immunotherapy treatments for small-cell lung cancer: past, present and future.

Project description:Small-cell lung cancer remains a considerable cause of morbidity and mortality. To this day, first-line therapy continues to be a platinum agent with etoposide, combined with radiation therapy in cases of limited stage disease. Numerous, largely unsuccessful, attempts at controlling the disease have included different chemotherapy strategies, the utilization of antiangiogenic agents, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitors and other treatment modalities. Immunotherapy, including vaccines, immune response modifiers, inhibitors of check point blockades and immunologic-targeted toxins may well be the future of treatment, not only to enhance the proven chemotherapy effects, but to improve the control of minimal residual disease and the response with salvage chemotherapy. This article reviews the current advances in immunotherapeutic strategies against small-cell lung cancer.

Comprehensive investigation of oncogenic driver mutations in Chinese non-small cell lung cancer patients.

Project description:To determine the frequency of driver mutations in Chinese non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients.Comprehensive mutational analysis was performed in 1356 lung adenocarcinoma, 503 squamous cell carcinoma, 57 adenosquamous lung carcinoma, 19 large cell carcinoma and 8 sarcomatoid carcinoma. The effect of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) on EGFR-mutated lung adenocarcinoma patients after disease recurrence was investigated.Mutations in EGFR kinase domain, HER2 kinase domain, KRAS, BRAF, ALK, ROS1 and RET were mutually exclusive. In lung adenocarcinoma cases "pan-negative" for the seven above-mentioned driver mutations, we also detected two oncogenic EGFR extracellular domain mutations (A289D and R324L), two HER2 extracellular and transmembrane domain mutations (S310Y and V659E), one ARAF S214C mutation and two CD74-NRG1 fusions. Six (1.2%) FGFR3 activating mutations were identified in lung squamous cell carcinoma (five S249C and one R248C). There were three (15.8%) EGFR mutations and four (21.1%) KRAS mutations in large cell carcinoma. Three (37.5%) KRAS mutations were detected in sarcomatoid carcinoma. In EGFR-mutated lung adenocarcinoma patients who experienced disease recurrence, treatment with EGFR TKIs was an independent predictor of better overall survival (HR = 0.299, 95% CI: 0.172-0.519, P < 0.001).We determined the frequency of driver mutations in a large series of Chinese NSCLC patients. EGFR TKIs might improve the survival outcomes of EGFR-mutated lung adenocarcinoma patients who experienced disease recurrence.

Neoadjuvant and Adjuvant Immunotherapy in Early-Stage Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer, Past, Present, and Future.

Project description:Lung cancer is worldwide the most common malignancy. Standard of care treatments for early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) include surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy. However, these patients continue to have poor prognosis due to systemic or local relapse. Immunotherapy has been considered as a novel approach to improve survival in patients with early-stage NSCLC. Since immune checkpoint inhibitors have transformed the treatment of advanced NSCLC, there is a growing interest in the role of immunotherapy in early-stage NSCLC. In this review, we summarize reported and ongoing clinical trials of immunotherapy in both neoadjuvant and adjuvant settings. We also highlight unaddressed issues in this field of research, such as the predictive markers, the optimal combination therapy, and the need for adjuvant immunotherapy. More studies are needed to optimize the treatment regimen of immunotherapy in patients with early-stage NSCLC.

STAT3 is activated by JAK2 independent of key oncogenic driver mutations in non-small cell lung carcinoma.

Project description:Constitutive activation of STAT3 is a common feature in many solid tumors including non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). While activation of STAT3 is commonly achieved by somatic mutations to JAK2 in hematologic malignancies, similar mutations are not often found in solid tumors. Previous work has instead suggested that STAT3 activation in solid tumors is more commonly induced by hyperactive growth factor receptors or autocrine cytokine signaling. The interplay between STAT3 activation and other well-characterized oncogenic "driver" mutations in NSCLC has not been fully characterized, though constitutive STAT3 activation has been proposed to play an important role in resistance to various small-molecule therapies that target these oncogenes. In this study we demonstrate that STAT3 is constitutively activated in human NSCLC samples and in a variety of NSCLC lines independent of activating KRAS or tyrosine kinase mutations. We further show that genetic or pharmacologic inhibition of the gp130/JAK2 signaling pathway disrupts activation of STAT3. Interestingly, treatment of NSCLC cells with the JAK1/2 inhibitor ruxolitinib has no effect on cell proliferation and viability in two-dimensional culture, but inhibits growth in soft agar and xenograft assays. These data demonstrate that JAK2/STAT3 signaling operates independent of known driver mutations in NSCLC and plays critical roles in tumor cell behavior that may not be effectively inhibited by drugs that selectively target these driver mutations.

Targeted therapies in non-small cell lung cancer: present and future.

Project description:Lung cancer is the leading cause of malignancy-related death in the United States and the second most common cancer diagnosis worldwide. In the last two decades, lung cancer treatment has evolved to include advances in the development of mutation-based targeting, immunotherapy, radiation therapy, and minimally invasive surgical techniques. The discovery of lung cancer as a molecularly heterogeneous disease has driven investigation into the development of targeted therapies resulting in improved patient outcomes. Despite these advances, there remain opportunities, through further investigation of mechanisms of resistance, to develop novel therapeutics that better direct the personalization of lung cancer therapy. In this review, we highlight developments in the evolution of targeted therapies in non-small cell lung cancer, as well as future directions shaped by emerging patterns of resistance.

The CLIP1-LTK fusion is an oncogenic driver in non-small-cell lung cancer.

Project description:Lung cancer is one of the most aggressive tumour types. Targeted therapies stratified by oncogenic drivers have substantially improved therapeutic outcomes in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC)1. However, such oncogenic drivers are not found in 25-40% of cases of lung adenocarcinoma, the most common histological subtype of NSCLC2. Here we identify a novel fusion transcript of CLIP1 and LTK using whole-transcriptome sequencing in a multi-institutional genome screening platform (LC-SCRUM-Asia, UMIN000036871). The CLIP1-LTK fusion was present in 0.4% of NSCLCs and was mutually exclusive with other known oncogenic drivers. We show that kinase activity of the CLIP1-LTK fusion protein is constitutively activated and has transformation potential. Treatment of Ba/F3 cells expressing CLIP1-LTK with lorlatinib, an ALK inhibitor, inhibited CLIP1-LTK kinase activity, suppressed proliferation and induced apoptosis. One patient with NSCLC harbouring the CLIP1-LTK fusion showed a good clinical response to lorlatinib treatment. To our knowledge, this is the first description of LTK alterations with oncogenic activity in cancers. These results identify the CLIP1-LTK fusion as a target in NSCLC that could be treated with lorlatinib.
