Frequency, underdiagnosis, and heterogeneity of epidermal growth factor receptor exon 20 insertion mutations using real-world genomic datasets.

ABSTRACT: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 20 insertion mutations (ex20ins) account for ≤ 12% of all EGFR-mutant nonsmall cell lung cancers. We analysed real-world datasets to determine the frequency of ex20ins variants, and the ability of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and next-generation sequencing (NGS) to identify them. Three real-world United States NGS databases were used: GENIE, FoundationInsights, and GuardantINFORM. Mutation profiles consistent with in-frame EGFR ex20ins were summarized. GENIE, FoundationInsights, and GuardantINFORM datasets identified 180, 627, and 627 patients with EGFR ex20ins respectively. The most frequent insertion region of exon 20 was the near loop (~ 70%), followed by the far loop (~ 30%) and the helical (~ 3-6%) regions. GENIE, FoundationInsights, and GuardantINFORM datasets identified 41, 102, and 96 unique variants respectively. An analysis of variants projected that ~ 50% of EGFR ex20ins identified by NGS would have been missed by PCR-based assays. Given the breadth of EGFR ex20ins identified in the real-world US datasets, the ability of PCR to identify these mutations is limited. NGS platforms are more appropriate to identify patients likely to benefit from EGFR ex20ins-targeted therapies.

Project description:BackgroundFor patients with EGFR/HER2 exon20 insertions, platinum-containing double-drug chemotherapy is still the standard treatment method. First-generation TKIs have almost no therapeutic activity against EGFR exon 20 insertions. The efficacy of second-and third-generation TKIs is still controversial. Immunotherapy research is scarce, and there is an urgent need for more evidence and new treatment options for this group of patients.MethodsWe reviewed patients with advanced NSCLC with EGFR/HER2 exon 20 insertion mutations treated in Shanghai Chest Hospital and Shanghai Pulmonary Hospital from 2015 to 2022 and assessed the efficacy of receiving chemotherapy, anti-angiogenic therapy and immunotherapy, including objective response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR), and compared progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).ResultsOf the 126 patients included in the study, 51 patients had EGFR20ins mutations and 7 5 patients had HER2-20ins mutations. In the first-line treatment, bevacizumab + chemotherapy (Beva+Chemo), ICI+chemotherapy (ICI+Chemo), compared with chemotherapy alone (Chemo), ORR: 40% vs 33.3% vs 15% (p=0.0168); DCR: 84% vs 80.9% vs 67.5% (p=0.1817); median PFS: 8.3 vs 7.0 vs 4.6 months (p=0.0032), ICI+Chemo has a trend of benefiting on OS. Stratified analysis showed that compared with chemotherapy, ICI+Chemo was more effective for EGFR20ins mutation with median PFS: 10.3 vs. 6.3m (P=0.013); Beva+Chemo was more effective for HER2-20ins mutation, with a median PFS: 6.6 vs. 4.3m (p=0.030). In the second-line treatment of EGFR20ins mutation, bevacizumab + chemotherapy has a significant advantage in PFS compared with targeted therapy, median PFS:10.8 vs 4.0 months (P=0.016).ConclusionFor patients with EGFR20ins mutation, compared to chemotherapy, ICI+Chemo prolongs PFS, and after chemotherapy progression, bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy seems better than Furmonertinib-based targeted therapy on PFS. For HER2-20ins mutation, Beva+Chemo may be a better choice.

Project description:IntroductionPatients with advanced, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with Exon 20 insertion mutations (Exon20ins) have poor prognoses, exacerbated by a previous lack of specific treatment guidelines and unmet need for targeted therapies. Amivantamab, an EGFR and MET bispecific antibody, demonstrated efficacy and tolerability in patients with advanced EGFR-mutated NSCLC with Exon20ins following platinum-based therapy in CHRYSALIS (NCT02609776; Cohort D+). Since CHRYSALIS was single-arm, individual patient data (IPD)-based adjusted analyses versus similar patients in real-world clinical practice (RWCP) were conducted to generate comparative evidence.MethodsRWCP cohorts were derived from seven European and US real-world sources, comprising patients fulfilling CHRYSALIS Cohort D+ eligibility criteria. Amivantamab was compared with a basket of RWCP treatments. Differences in prognostic characteristics were adjusted for using inverse probability weighting (IPW; average treatment effect among the treated [ATT]). Balance between cohorts was assessed using standardized mean differences (SMDs). Overall response rate (ORR; investigator- [INV] and independent review committee-assessed [IRC]), overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS; INV and IRC) and time-to-next treatment (TTNT) were compared. Binary and time-to-event endpoints were analyzed using weighted logistic regression and proportional hazards regression, respectively.ResultsPre-adjustment, baseline characteristics were comparable between cohorts. IPW ATT-adjustment improved comparability, giving closely matched characteristics. ORR (INV) was 36.8% for amivantamab versus 17.0% for the adjusted EU + US cohort (response rate ratio [RR]: 2.16). Median OS, PFS (INV) and TTNT were 22.77 versus 12.52 months (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.47; p < 0.0001), 6.93 versus 4.17 months (HR: 0.55; p < 0.0001) and 12.42 versus 5.36 months (HR: 0.44; p < 0.0001) for amivantamab versus the adjusted EU + US cohort, respectively. Results were consistent versus EU- and US-only cohorts, and when using IRC assessment.ConclusionAdjusted comparisons demonstrated significantly improved outcomes for amivantamab versus RWCP, highlighting the value of amivantamab in addressing unmet need in patients with advanced EGFR Exon20ins NSCLC following platinum-based therapy.Trial registrationCHRYSALIS: NCT02609776.
