[PMID: 39269534 PMCID: PMC11399369 DOI: 10.1007/s12672-024-01307-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2024] [Accepted: 09/03/2024] [Indexed: 09/15/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Controversy surrounds the treatment of visceral pleural invasion in lung cancer, and no studies have compared the efficacy of its four main treatment options (i.e., surgery, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy). This study aims to compare and analyze surgery, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy outcomes and explore the optimal treatment of visceral pleural invasion in lung cancer. METHODS We searched electronic databases (i.e., Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane Library, CNKI, and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database Search) for relevant studies of treatment options for patients with visceral pleural invasion in stage IIA-IIB lung cancer. Searches times were limited to studies published between January 1, 2000 and February 20, 2021. Meta analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 software We also downloaded original RNA transcription data about lung cancer invasion in the GEO and TCGA tumor databases, and used R 4.0.3 software to perform differential expression and co-expression gene network analyses. RESULTS We included a total of 25 high-quality (i.e., Jadad score 4-7) studies. Meta-analysis found that surgical treatment was associated with a 3-year survival rate OR = 3.80 (95% CI 3.53, 4.09; P < 0.0001), 5-year survival rate OR = 4.10 (95% CI 3.72, 4.53; P < 0.0001), and median survival time OR = 2.71 (95% CI 2.53, 2.89; P < 0.0001). Chemotherapy was associated with a 3-year survival rate OR = 2.08 (95% CI 1.93, 2.25; P < 0.0001), 5-year survival rate OR = 1.68 (95% CI 1.49, 1.89; P < 0.0001), and median survival time OR = 1.84 (95% CI 1.66, 2.04; P < 0.0001). Targeted therapy was associated with a 3-year survival rate OR = 2.91 (95% CI 2.65, 3.19; P < 0.0001), 5-year survival rate OR = 1.83 (95% CI 1.39, 2.33; P < 0.0001), and median survival time OR = 1.76 (95% CI 1.59, 1.94; P < 0.0001). Finally, immunotherapy was associated with a 3-year survival rate OR = 1.89 (95% CI 1.73, 2.07; P < 0.0001), 5-year survival rate OR = 1.66 (95% CI 1.46, 1.88; P < 0.0001), and median survival time OR = 2.53 (95% CI 2.27, 2.82; P < 0.0001). After screening differential genes and co-expressed genes in tumor gene databases, we found that AC245595.1, ITGB1-DT and AL606489.1 may be involved in the process of lung cancer invasion, and macrophages M1 and M2, CD4+-Th1, CD8+-Th1 may participate in immune infiltration. CONCLUSIONS In patients with visceral pleural invasion of stage IIA-IIB lung cancer, chemotherapy has shown a significant effect on improving prognosis and enhancing efficacy. However, surgical treatment did not significantly improve the overall prognosis. Therefore, the individual situation of the patient and the comprehensive benefits of the treatment program should be fully considered when developing the treatment program.

Construction of a nomogram model based on biomarkers for liver metastasis in non-small cell lung cancer. Thorac Cancer 2024. [PMID: 39098998 DOI: 10.1111/1759-7714.15417] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2024] [Revised: 07/15/2024] [Accepted: 07/20/2024] [Indexed: 08/06/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with liver metastasis have a poor prognosis, and there are no reliable biomarkers for predicting disease progression. Currently, no recognized and reliable prediction model exists to anticipate liver metastasis in NSCLC, nor have the risk factors influencing its onset time been thoroughly explored. METHODS This study conducted a retrospective analysis of 434 NSCLC patients from two hospitals to assess the association between the risk and timing of liver metastasis, as well as several variables. RESULTS The patients were divided into two groups: those without liver metastasis and those with liver metastasis. We constructed a nomogram model for predicting liver metastasis in NSCLC, incorporating elements such as T stage, N stage, M stage, lack of past radical lung cancer surgery, and programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) levels. Furthermore, NSCLC patients with wild-type EGFR, no prior therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), and no prior radical lung cancer surgery showed an elevated risk of early liver metastasis. CONCLUSION In conclusion, the nomogram model developed in this study has the potential to become a simple, intuitive, and customizable clinical tool for assessing the risk of liver metastasis in NSCLC patients following validation. Furthermore, it provides a framework for investigating the timing of metachronous liver metastasis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) has been a leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Early intervention can significantly improve prognosis. DNA methylation could occur in the early stage of tumor. Comprehensive understanding the epigenetic landscape of early-stage LUAD is crucial in understanding tumorigenesis. METHODS Enzymatic methyl sequencing (EM-seq) was performed on 23 tumors and paired normal tissue to reveal distinct epigenetic landscape, for compared with The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) 450K methylation microarray data. Then, an integrative analysis was performed combined with TCGA LUAD RNA-seq data to identify significant differential methylated and expressed genes. Subsequently, the prognostic risk model was constructed and cellular composition was analyzed. RESULTS Methylome analysis of EM-seq comparing tumor and normal tissues identified 25 million cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) sites and 30,187 differentially methylated regions (DMR) with a greater number of untraditional types. EM-seq identified a significantly higher number of CpG sites and DMRs compared to the 450K microarray. By integrating the differentially methylated genes (DMGs) with LUAD-related differentially expressed genes (DEGs) from the TCGA database, we constructed prognostic model based on six differentially methylated-expressed genes (MEGs) and verified our prognostic model in GSE13213 and GSE42127 dataset. Finally, cell deconvolution based on the in-house EM-seq methylation profile was used to estimate cellular composition of early-stage LUAD. CONCLUSIONS This study firstly delves into novel pattern of epigenomic DNA methylation and provides a multidimensional analysis of the role of DNA methylation revealed by EM-seq in early-stage LUAD, providing distinctive insights into its potential epigenetic mechanisms.

Ther Adv Med Oncol 2024; 16:17588359241239293. [PMID: 38510678 PMCID: PMC10953105 DOI: 10.1177/17588359241239293] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2023] [Accepted: 02/27/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Bone metastasis (BM) seriously affects the quality of life and reduces the survival time of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The genomic characteristics and potential targets of BMs are yet to be fully explored. Objective To explore the genetic characteristics and potential targets of BM in NSCLC. Design In all, 83 patients with NSCLC were retrospectively selected in this study. Genomic characterization of BMs was explored with the analysis of NGS results from primary tumors and BMs in 6 patients, then combined with NGS results of lung tumors in 16 patients with initial recurrence in bone to analyze mutations potentially associated with BMs, and finally, the correlation was further validated in 61 postoperative patients. Methods The next generation sequencing (NGS) was performed to identify genomic differences between pulmonary primary tumors and BM. Fluorescence in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry were performed in postoperative tumor tissues from patients who had undergone radical surgery to validate the predictive role of molecular targets for BM. The correlation between cyclin-dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) and BM was evaluated by Pearson's chi-square test. The university of alabama at birminghan cancer data analysis portal (UALCAN) was carried out for the detection of CDK4 expression in lung cancer and the relationship between CDK4 and clinicopathological parameters. The relationship between prognosis and CDK4 expression was analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier plotter. Results The rate of gene amplification was increased (24% versus 36%) while gene substitution/indel was decreased (64% versus 52%) in BMs. The BM-specific mutations were analyzed in 16 recurrent patients which revealed the highest incidence of CDK4 amplification (18.8%). According to the Kaplan-Meier plotter database, the NSCLC patients with high CDK4 gene expression showed poor overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) (p < 0.05). The incidence of CDK4 amplification tended to be higher in recurrent patients compared to the patients without BM (18.8% versus 4.7%, p = 0.118). Conclusion Compared to the primary tumors of NSCLC, the genome of BMs showed an increased proportion of amplification and a decreased proportion of gene substitution/indel. Furthermore, the CDK4 amplification ratio seemed to be elevated in NSCLC patients with BM which may be associated with poor OS and RFS.

Abstract
Background We investigated the biological predisposition to site of metastasis in patients with NSCLC based on their molecular profiling and program death ligand PD-L1 status. We sought to identify any association between metastatic site and molecular profile in NSCLC patients. Methods This was a retrospective analysis of patients with stage IV NSCLC who were newly diagnosed from January 2014 to June 2022. Clinical characteristics, pathology, molecular reports, and imaging were retrieved and analyzed. Results A total of 143 patients were included in the study. Median age was 65 years, with an equal number of men (n=71) and women (n=72). The most common histology was adenocarcinoma (81.8%). At least one genetic mutation was discovered in 100 patients. Mutations with a targetable drug were found in 86 patients. The most common mutations were TP53 (25.2%), EGFR (24.5%), KRAS/NRAS (20.3%), and CDKN2A/2B (7.7%). Patients with any mutation were significantly more likely to have metastatic disease to the brain (57% vs. 37%, p=0.03), but there was no difference in metastatic disease to bone (34% vs. 26%, p=0.32). Patients without a discoverable mutation were significantly more likely to have metastatic disease to other sites (e.g., adrenal gland 91% vs. liver 66%, p=0.002). There was no difference in progression-free survival (PFS) or overall survival (OS) between those with versus without mutations. Median PFS and OS were significantly longer in patients with an EGFR mutation than those with KRAS/NRAS or TP53 mutations. Patients with PD-L1 >1% or TP53 were significantly more likely to have metastatic disease to organs other than bone or brain (p=0.047 and p=0.023, respectively). We identified four prognostic groups in metastatic NSCLC. Patients with PD-L1 <1% and no actionable mutations have the poorest prognosis, with median survival of around 20 months. Conclusion Patients with mutations discoverable on NGS are more likely to have metastatic disease to the brain. KRAS/NRAS in particular has a predilection to metastasize to the brain and bone. PD-L1 expression and a TP53 mutation, on the other hand, tend to lead to metastasis of NSCLC to organs other than brain or bone. These results need to be corroborated in larger prospective studies.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to analyse the correlation of extracranial metastasis sites (ECMs) to the incidence risk of brain metastasis (BMs) in stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS 18349 newly diagnosed patients were retrospectively analysed, and 4919 pairs of cases were matched by propensity score matching in a 1:1 ratio. Alternative factors were analysed by multivariable logistic regression analysis. And the interaction analysis and subgroup analysis were carried out. RESULTS The incidences of Brain, Lung, Liver, Bone, Multiple and Other metastasis were 26.9%, 20.2%, 4.6%, 19.9%, 16.9% and 38.3%, respectively. Results suggested that Age, Race, Histological type, Grade, T stage, N stage and Organ metastasis site were risk factors (p < 0.05). The interaction analysis suggested interaction effects between the Primary site, T stage, N stage and Organ metastasis site. The subgroup analysis showed that the Organ metastasis site and the risk of BMs were statistically significant except that the Overlapping subgroup (p = 0.267) of the Primary site. And the incidence risk of BMs in Lung metastasis, Liver metastasis and Bone metastasis groups was lower than that in other metastasis group (OR 1, p < 0.05). There was no significant difference between the Multiple metastasis group and the other metastasis group (OR 1.091, p = 0.169). CONCLUSION Advanced age, non-Asian/Pacific Islander, non-squamous cell carcinoma, poorly differentiated grade, and higher T/N stage were risk factors for increased BMs in stage IV NSCLC, and the ECMs were associated with the risk of BMs.

Incidence of Bone Metastases and Skeletal-Related Events in Patients With EGFR-Mutated NSCLC Treated With Osimertinib. JTO Clin Res Rep 2023; 4:100513. [PMID: 37168878 PMCID: PMC10165134 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtocrr.2023.100513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2022] [Revised: 03/02/2023] [Accepted: 03/29/2023] [Indexed: 04/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Bone metastases are frequent in patients with EGFR-mutated (EGFR+) NSCLC. Skeletal-related events (SREs) are common in these patients; however, no data on SRE in osimertinib-treated patients are reported. We investigated the development of bone metastases and SREs in patients with EGFR+ NSCLC treated with osimertinib. Methods This is a retrospective multicenter cohort study that included patients with metastatic EGFR+ NSCLC who were treated with osimertinib between February 2016 and September 2021. Demographics, bone metastases-related outcomes, SREs, treatment efficacy, and overall survival (OS) were collected. Results In total, 250 patients treated with osimertinib (43% first line) were included. Of the patients, 51% had bone metastases at initiation of osimertinib. Furthermore, 16% of the patients with bone metastases used bone-targeted agents. Median follow-up from initiation of osimertinib was 23.4 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 19.9-26.9 mo). During osimertinib treatment, 10% developed new bone metastases or bone progression. Of the patients with bone metastases, 39% had more than or equal to one SREs: 28% developed first SRE before osimertinib treatment, 1% after, and 11% during. Median OS post-bone metastasis was 30.8 months (95% CI: 21.9-39.7). Median OS after first SRE was 31.1 months (95% CI: 15.8-46.5). Conclusions Bone metastases and SREs are frequent before and during treatment with osimertinib in EGFR+ NSCLC. Because of these findings and the long OS post-bone metastases, we advocate prescription of bone-targeted agents in these patients and recommend adding bone-specific end points in clinical trials.

Therapeutic drug monitoring guided dosing versus standard dosing of alectinib in advanced ALK positive non-small cell lung cancer patients: Study protocol for an international, multicenter phase IV randomized controlled trial (ADAPT ALEC). Front Oncol 2023; 13:1136221.

Abstract
BackgroundAlectinib is first-line therapy in patients with stage IV non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) and an anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) fusion. A shorter median progression-free survival (mPFS) was observed when alectinib minimum plasma concentrations during steady state (Cmin,SS) were below 435 ng/mL. This may suggest that patients should have an alectinib Cmin,SS ≥ 435 ng/mL for a more favorable outcome. This potential target could be attained by using therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), i.e. adjusting the dose based on measured plasma trough concentrations. Hypothetically, this will increase mPFS, but this has not yet been evaluated in a randomized controlled trial (RCT). Therefore, the ADAPT ALEC trial is designed, with the primary objective to prolong mPFS in NSCLC patients treated with alectinib by using TDM.MethodsADAPT ALEC is a multicenter, phase IV RCT, in which patients aged ≥ 18 years with advanced ALK positive (+) NSCLC eligible for alectinib in daily care are enrolled. Participants will be randomized (1:1 ratio) into intervention arm A (TDM) or B (control), stratified by brain metastases and prior ALK treatments. Starting dose in both arms is the approved flat fixed dose of alectinib 600 mg taken twice daily with food. In case of alectinib Cmin,SS < 435 ng/mL, arm A will receive increased doses of alectinib till Cmin,SS ≥ 435 ng/mL when considered tolerable. The primary outcome is mPFS, where progressive disease is defined according to RECIST v1.1 or all-cause death and assessed by CT-scans and MRI brain. Secondary endpoints are feasibility and tolerability of TDM, patient and physician adherence, overall response rate, median overall survival, intracranial PFS, quality of life, toxicity, alectinib-M4 concentrations and cost-effectiveness of TDM. Exploratory endpoints are circulating tumor DNA and body composition.DiscussionThe ADAPT ALEC will show whether treatment outcomes of patients with advanced ALK+ NSCLC improve when using TDM-guided dosing of alectinib instead of fixed dosing. The results will provide high quality evidence for deciding whether TDM should be implemented as standard of care and this will have important consequences for the prescribing of alectinib.Clinical trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov, identifier NCT05525338.

Development and validation of a decision model for the evaluation of novel lung cancer treatments in the Netherlands. Sci Rep 2023; 13:2349.

Abstract
Recent discoveries in molecular diagnostics and drug treatments have improved the treatment of patients with advanced (inoperable) non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) from solely platinum-based chemotherapy to more personalized treatment, including targeted therapies and immunotherapies. However, these improvements come at considerable costs, highlighting the need to assess their cost-effectiveness in order to optimize lung cancer care. Traditionally, cost-effectiveness models for the evaluation of new lung cancer treatments were based on the findings of the randomized control trials (RCTs). However, the strict RCT inclusion criteria make RCT patients not representative of patients in the real-world. Patients in RCTs have a better prognosis than patients in a real-world setting. Therefore, in this study, we developed and validated a diagnosis-treatment decision model for patients with advanced (inoperable) non-squamous NSCLC based on real-world data in the Netherlands. The model is a patient-level microsimulation model implemented as discrete event simulation with five health events. Patients are simulated from diagnosis to death, including at most three treatment lines. The base-model (non-personalized strategy) was populated using real-world data of patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy between 2008 and 2014 in one of six Dutch teaching hospitals. To simulate personalized care, molecular tumor characteristics were incorporated in the model based on the literature. The impact of novel targeted treatments and immunotherapies was included based on published RCTs. To validate the model, we compared survival under a personalized treatment strategy with observed real-world survival. This model can be used for health-care evaluation of personalized treatment for patients with advanced (inoperable) NSCLC in the Netherlands.

Abstract
Background Clinical guidelines advise osimertinib as preferred first line treatment for advanced epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with deletions in exon 19 (del19) or exon 21 L858R mutation. However, for first-line osimertinib the real world overall survival (OS) in mutation subgroups remains unknown. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the real-world OS of those patients treated with different generations of EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI), and to identify predictors of survival. Methods Using real-world data from the Netherlands Cancer Registry (NCR) we assessed patients diagnosed with stage IV NSCLC with del19 or L858R mutation between January 1, 2015, and December 31, 2020, primarily treated with then regularly available TKIs (including osimertinib). Findings Between January 1, 2015, and December 31, 2020, 57,592 patients were included in the NCR. Within this cohort we identified 1109 patients, 654 (59%) with del19 and 455 (41%) with L858R mutations, respectively; 230 (21%) patients were diagnosed with baseline brain metastases (BM). Patients were treated with gefitinib (19%, 213/1109), erlotinib (42%, 470/1109), afatinib (15%, 161/1109) or osimertinib (24%, 265/1109). Median OS was superior for del19 versus L858R (28.4 months (95% CI 25.6-30.6) versus 17.7 months (95% CI 16.1-19.5), p < 0.001. In multivariable analysis, no difference in survival was observed between various TKIs in both groups. Only in the subgroup of patients with del19 and baseline BM, a benefit was observed for treatment with osimertinib. Interpretation In this nationwide real-world cohort, survival of Dutch patients with advanced NSCLC and an EGFR del19 mutation was superior versus those harboring an L858R mutation. Osimertinib performed only better as first-line treatment in patients with del19 and BM. Funding None.

Abstract
The development of targeted therapies over the past two decades has led to a dramatic change in the management of EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). While there are currently five approved EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) for treating EGFR-mutant NSCLC in the first-line setting, therapy selection after progression on EGFR TKIs remains complex. Multiple groups are investigating novel therapies and drug combinations to determine the optimal therapy and treatment sequence for these patients. In this review, we summarize the landmark trials and history of the approval of EGFR TKIs, their efficacy and tolerability, and the role of these therapies in patients with central nervous system metastasis. We also briefly discuss the mechanisms of resistance to EGFR TKIs, ongoing attempts to overcome resistance and improve outcomes, and finalize by offering treatment sequencing recommendations.

Association of RANKL and EGFR gene expression with bone metastases in patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. Front Oncol 2023; 13:1145001. [PMID: 37213294 PMCID: PMC10196450 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2023.1145001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2023] [Accepted: 04/21/2023] [Indexed: 05/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Bone metastases are frequent in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The receptor activator of Nuclear Factor κB (RANK)/RANK ligand (RANKL)/osteoprotegerin (OPG) pathway is important in bone metastases development. Furthermore, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling promotes osteoclast formation and stimulation. The understanding of the biological mechanism of bone metastases development might have implications for treatment strategies. Therefore, we studied whether there is an association between EGFR, RANKL, RANK and OPG gene expression in the tumor and presence of bone metastases in patients with NSCLC. Methods From an updated multicenter study, including patients with EGFR mutated (EGFR+), Kirsten rat sarcoma (KRAS+) and EGFR/KRAS wildtype metastatic NSCLC, all patients with available formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor samples were selected. Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) was isolated from these samples and gene expressions of EGFR, RANKL, OPG and RANKL were determined via quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR). Data on demographics, histology and molecular subtyping, sample origin, presence of bone metastasis, SREs and bone progression were collected. Primary endpoint was relation between EGFR, RANK, RANKL, OPG gene expression, RANKL: OPG ratio and bone metastases. Results In 73/335 (32% EGFR+, 49% KRAS+, 19% EGFR/KRAS wildtype) samples from unique patients, gene expression analysis could be performed. Of these 73 patients, 46 (63%) had bone metastases at diagnosis or developed bone metastases during the disease course. No association was found between EGFR expression and presence of bone metastases. Patients with bone metastases had a significantly higher RANKL expression and RANKL: OPG ratio compared to those without. An increased RANKL: OPG ratio resulted in a 1.65x increased risk to develop bone metastases, especially in the first 450 days after diagnosis of metastatic NSCLC. Conclusion Increased RANKL gene expression and RANKL: OPG ratio, but not EGFR expression, was associated with presence of bone metastases. Additionally, an increased RANKL: OPG gene ratio was associated with a higher incidence of bone metastases development.

Overall Survival Improvement in Patients with Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor-Mutated Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer and Bone Metastasis Treated with Denosumab. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14143470. [PMID: 35884531 PMCID: PMC9316991 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14143470] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2022] [Revised: 07/14/2022] [Accepted: 07/15/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
The impact of an initial skeletal-related event (SRE) and denosumab adjuvant treatment on the survival outcome of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with bone metastasis remains unclear. This retrospective study included 400 metastatic EGFR-mutated NSCLC patients. Among 190 bone metastasis patients, 61 had initial SREs and 73 received denosumab. We analyzed patient characteristics, SRE-free survival (SRE-FS), and overall survival (OS). In metastatic EGFR-mutated NSCLC, bone metastasis was associated with a poorer OS (21.7 vs. 33.0 months; p < 0.001). Bone metastasis patients with initial SREs at diagnosis had an even shorter OS, compared with those without initial SRE (15.4 vs. 23.6 months; p = 0.026). Denosumab reduced SRE incidence (hazard ratio (HR) 0.57 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.34−0.94; p = 0.027) and was associated with improved OS (26.6 vs. 20.1 months; p = 0.015). A multivariate analysis demonstrated that denosumab treatment was correlated with a lower incidence of SRE (HR 0.61 (95% CI 0.37−0.98); p = 0.042) and better OS (HR 0.60 (95% CI 0.41−0.88); p = 0.008). In subgroup analyses, denosumab prolonged SRE-FS (HR 0.36 (95% CI 0.19−0.79); p = 0.009) in patients without initial SREs and was related to a better OS (25.3 vs. 12.9 months; p = 0.016) in patients with initial or pre-existing SREs. Osteonecrosis of the jaw was diagnosed in two patients (2.74%) receiving denosumab. Our study confirmed the association between initial SREs and a worse outcome and provided novel evidence of the survival benefit of denosumab for EGFR-mutated NSCLC patients with bone metastasis.

Clinical efficacy of osimertinib in EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer with distant metastasis. BMC Cancer 2022; 22:654. [PMID: 35698083 PMCID: PMC9195197 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-022-09741-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2022] [Accepted: 06/06/2022] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Osimertinib-the third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)-has been widely used as a first-line treatment for patients with metastatic EGFR-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Osimertinib demonstrated central nervous system activity in patients with brain metastasis; however, its efficacy against other distant metastatic organs, including bone and liver, remains unclear. Therefore, we retrospectively analyzed the clinical efficacy of osimertinib in these patients in comparison to other EGFR-TKIs. METHODS Clinical data of patients with advanced NSCLC receiving gefitinib/erlotinib (n = 183), afatinib (n = 55), or osimertinib (n = 150) at five medical institutions were retrospectively assessed for progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and best overall response rate (ORR). RESULTS In univariate and multivariate analyses, most distant metastases, including the brain and bone, were unrelated to the therapeutic efficacy of osimertinib, although liver metastasis and L858R mutation were independently associated with shorter PFS. PFS and OS in patients with liver metastases were significantly shorter than those in patients without liver metastases (PFS: 7.4 vs. 19.7 months, OS: 12.1 months vs. not reached, respectively). Osimertinib provided significantly longer PFS in patients with brain or bone metastasis and exon 19 deletion than the other EGFR-TKIs. The PFS of patients with liver metastases was not significantly different among the three EGFR-TKI groups. Furthermore, the ORR of osimertinib in patients with liver metastases was significantly attenuated, and the effectiveness was similar to 1st- or 2nd -generation EGFR-TKIs. CONCLUSION Osimertinib provided better clinical benefits than 1st- and 2nd-generation EGFR-TKIs for patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC, particularly those with brain or bone metastases and exon 19 deletion; however, its efficacy against liver metastasis was remarkably attenuated. New therapeutic developments for patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC with liver metastases are needed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harbours many genetic aberrations that can be targeted with systemic treatments. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) can simultaneously detect these (and possibly new) molecular targets. However, the exact added clinical value of WGS is unknown. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to determine the early cost effectiveness of using WGS in diagnostic strategies compared with currently used molecular diagnostics for patients with inoperable stage IIIB,C/IV non-squamous NSCLC from a Dutch healthcare perspective. METHODS A decision tree represented the diagnostic pathway, and a cohort state transition model represented disease progression. Three diagnostic strategies were modelled: standard of care (SoC) alone, WGS as a diagnostic test, and SoC followed by WGS. Treatment effectiveness was based on a systematic review. Probabilistic cost-effectiveness analyses were performed, and threshold analyses (using €80,000 per quality-adjusted life-year [QALY]) was used to explore the early cost effectiveness of WGS. RESULTS WGS as a diagnostic test resulted in more QALYs (0.002) and costs (€1534 [incremental net monetary benefit -€1349]), and SoC followed by WGS resulted in fewer QALYs (-0.002) and more costs (€1059 [-€1194]) compared with SoC alone. WGS as a diagnostic test was only cost effective if it was priced at €2000 per patient and identified 2.7% more actionable patients than SoC alone. Treating these additional identified patients with new treatments costing >€4069 per month decreased the probability of cost effectiveness. CONCLUSIONS Our analysis suggests that providing WGS as a diagnostic test is cost effective compared with SoC followed by WGS and SoC alone if costs for WGS decrease and additional patients with actionable targets are identified. This cost-effectiveness model can be used to incorporate new findings iteratively and to support ongoing decision making regarding the use of WGS in this rapidly evolving field.

Worldwide Prevalence of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Mutations in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Meta-Analysis. Mol Diagn Ther 2021; 26:7-18. [PMID: 34813053 PMCID: PMC8766385 DOI: 10.1007/s40291-021-00563-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 61] [Impact Index Per Article: 20.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 10/17/2021] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
Background Identification of variable epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is important for the selection of appropriate targeted therapies. This meta-analysis was conducted to provide a worldwide overview of EGFR mutation and submutation (specifically exon 19 deletions, exon 21 L858R substitutions, and others) prevalence, and identify important covariates that influence EGFR mutation status in patients with advanced NSCLC to address this clinical data gap. Methods Embase® and MEDLINE® in Ovid were searched for studies published between 2004 and 2019 with cohorts of ≥ 50 adults with EGFR mutations, focusing on stage III/IV NSCLC (≤ 20% of patients with stage I/II NSCLC). Linear mixed-effects models were fitted to EGFR mutation endpoints using logistic transformation (logit), assuming a binomial distribution. The model included terms for an intercept reflecting European studies and further additive terms for other continents. EGFR submutations examined were exon 19 deletions, exon 21 L858R substitutions, and others. Results Of 3969 abstracts screened, 57 studies were included in the overall EGFR mutation analysis and 74 were included in the submutation analysis relative to the overall EGFR mutation population (Europe, n = 12; Asia, n = 51; North America, n = 5; Central America, n = 1; South America, n = 1; Oceania, n = 1; Global, n = 3). The final overall EGFR mutations model estimated Asian and European prevalence of 49.1% and 12.8%, respectively, and included an additive covariate for the proportion of male patients in a study. There were no significant covariates in the submutation analyses. Most submutations were actionable: exon 19 deletions (49.2% [Asia]; 48.4% [Europe]); exon 21 L858R substitutions (41.1% [Asia]; 29.9% [Europe]). Conclusions Although EGFR mutation prevalence was higher in Asian than Western countries, data support worldwide testing for EGFR overall and submutations to inform appropriate targeted treatment decisions.

Abstract
Major progress has been achieved to treat cancer patients and survival has improved considerably, even for stage-IV bone metastatic patients. Locomotive health has become a crucial issue for patient autonomy and quality of life. The centerpiece of the reflection lies in the fracture risk evaluation of bone metastasis to guide physician decision regarding physical activity, antiresorptive agent prescription, and local intervention by radiotherapy, surgery, and interventional radiology. A key mandatory step, since bone metastases may be asymptomatic and disseminated throughout the skeleton, is to identify the bone metastasis location by cartography, especially within weight-bearing bones. For every location, the fracture risk evaluation relies on qualitative approaches using imagery and scores such as Mirels and spinal instability neoplastic score (SINS). This approach, however, has important limitations and there is a need to develop new tools for bone metastatic and myeloma fracture risk evaluation. Personalized numerical simulation qCT-based imaging constitutes one of these emerging tools to assess bone tumoral strength and estimate the femoral and vertebral fracture risk. The next generation of numerical simulation and artificial intelligence will take into account multiple loadings to integrate movement and obtain conditions even closer to real-life, in order to guide patient rehabilitation and activity within a personalized-medicine approach.

Abstract
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Bone metastasis, which usually accompanies severe skeletal-related events, is the most common site for tumor distant dissemination and detected in more than one-third of patients with advanced lung cancer. Biopsy and imaging play critical roles in the diagnosis of bone metastasis; however, these approaches are characterized by evident limitations. Recently, studies regarding potential biomarkers in the serum, urine, and tumor tissue, were performed to predict the bone metastases and prognosis in patients with lung cancer. In this review, we summarize the findings of recent clinical research studies on biomarkers detected in samples obtained from patients with lung cancer bone metastasis. These markers include the following: (1) bone resorption-associated markers, such as N-terminal telopeptide (NTx)/C-terminal telopeptide (CTx), C-terminal telopeptide of type I collagen (CTx-I), tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase isoform 5b (TRACP-5b), pyridinoline (PYD), and parathyroid hormone related peptide (PTHrP); (2) bone formation-associated markers, including total serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP)/bone specific alkaline phosphatase(BAP), osteopontin (OP), osteocalcin (OS), amino-terminal extension propeptide of type I procollagen/carboxy-terminal extension propeptide of type I procollagen (PICP/PINP); (3) signaling markers, including epidermal growth factor receptor/Kirsten rat sarcoma/anaplastic lymphoma kinase (EGFR/KRAS/ALK), receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand/receptor activator of nuclear factor κB/osteoprotegerin (RANKL/RANK/OPG), C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 12/C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4 (CXCL12/CXCR4), complement component 5a receptor (C5AR); and (4) other potential markers, such as calcium sensing receptor (CASR), bone sialoprotein (BSP), bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2), cytokeratin 19 fragment/carcinoembryonic antigen (CYFRA/CEA), tissue factor, cell-free DNA, long non-coding RNA, and microRNA. The prognostic value of these markers is also investigated. Furthermore, we listed some clinical trials targeting hotspot biomarkers in advanced lung cancer referring for their therapeutic effects.

Abstract
KRAS is one of the most commonly mutated oncogene and a negative predictive factor for a number of targeted therapies. Therefore, the development of targeting strategies against mutant KRAS is urgently needed. One potential strategy involves disruption of K-Ras membrane localization, which is necessary for its proper function. In this review, we summarize the current data about the importance of membrane-anchorage of K-Ras and provide a critical evaluation of this targeting paradigm focusing mainly on prenylation inhibition. Additionally, we performed a RAS mutation-specific analysis of prenylation-related drug sensitivity data from a publicly available database (https://depmap.org/repurposing/) of three classes of prenylation inhibitors: statins, N-bisphosphonates, and farnesyl-transferase inhibitors. We observed significant differences in sensitivity to N-bisphosphonates and farnesyl-transferase inhibitors depending on KRAS mutational status and tissue of origin. These observations emphasize the importance of factors affecting efficacy of prenylation inhibition, like distinct features of different KRAS mutations, tissue-specific mutational patterns, K-Ras turnover, and changes in regulation of prenylation process. Finally, we enlist the factors that might be responsible for the large discrepancy between the outcomes in preclinical and clinical studies including methodological pitfalls, the incomplete understanding of K-Ras protein turnover, and the variation of KRAS dependency in KRAS mutant tumors.

Abstract
Oligometastatic (OM) disease is defined by a low metastatic tumor spread. OM non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treatment aims to improve the patient's prognosis and quality of life, in an attempt-to-cure objective. Oncogenic-driven metastatic NSCLC accounts for about 20-25% of NSCLCs, with an ever-increasing number of potentially druggable molecular alterations. Due to specific targeted therapy, the care and prognosis of mutated NSCLC is quite different from non-oncogenic-driven NSCLC. However, OM-NSCLC treatment guidelines do not specifically discuss oncogenic-driven OM-NSCLC patients. We conducted a narrative review regarding retrospective and prospective studies published from inception to May 2020 dealing with oncogenic-driven OM-NSCLC in order to: (I) describe the specific patterns of metastatic spread of oncogenic-driven NSCLC (i.e., bone and pleural tropism in EGFR mutated NSCLC and serous and brain metastases in ALK NSCLC); (II) review the low level of current evidence for local ablative therapy (LAT) strategies in patients with oncogenic-driven OM-NSCLC, focusing on the benefit/risk of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) and LATs combination and (III) present strategies to help to select the best candidate for an attempt-to-cure approach. Finally, the optimal strategy may be to introduce a targeted therapy, then treat all tumor sites with LAT, and finally continue TKI for unknown prolonged duration in an attempt to prolong progression free survival in most patients, improve overall survival for some patients, and potentially lead to a cancer cure for a few patients.

Abstract
Bone metastases, occurring in 30-60% of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), are associated with decreased survival, cancer-induced bone pain, and skeletal-related events (SREs). Those with an activating epidermal growth factor mutation (EGFR+) seem to be more prone to develop bone metastases. To gain more insight into bone metastases-related outcomes in EGFR+ NSCLC, we performed a systematic review on Pubmed (2006-2021). Main inclusion criteria: prospective, phase II/III trials evaluating EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors, ≥10 EGFR+ patients included, data on bone metastases and/or bone-related outcomes available. Out of 663 articles, 21 (3176 EGFR+ patients) met the eligibility criteria; 4 phase III (one double blind), 17 phase II trials (three randomized) were included. In seven trials dedicated bone imaging was performed at baseline. Mean incidence of bone metastases at diagnosis was 42%; 3-33% had progression in the bone upon progression. Except for one trial, it was not specified whether the use of bone target agents was permitted, and in none of the trials, occurrence of SREs was reported. Despite the high incidence of bone metastases in EGFR+ adenocarcinoma, there is a lack of screening for, and reporting on bone metastases in clinical trials, as well as permitted bone-targeted agents and SREs.

Abstract
BoM was prone to multiple organs metastases and had more complex aberrations. BoM was associated with worse prognosis which cannot be salvaged by Osimertinib. BoM was an independent prognostic factor for EGFR-TKI treatment in PFS and OS.
Background Targeted therapy has been established as the standard-of-care for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations. Among patients with advanced lung cancer, 30–40% have bone metastases (BoM) at first diagnosis. However, little is known on the clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of BoM in patients with NSCLC harboring EGFR mutations. Methods Treatment-naive patients with advanced NSCLC harboring EGFR mutations who were prescribed tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) were screened and enrolled between June 2009 and April 2019 from West China Hospital. Patients were dichotomized according to whether they had BoM. The demographic characteristics, gene mutation status and therapeutic efficacy, including objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS), were collected. Results A cohort of 604 patients were enrolled. The BoM group had worse PFS (11.7 vs. 14.0 months, HR = 0.73, p = 0.00013) and OS (32.8 vs. 46.1 months, HR = 0.54, p < 0.0001) compared with the non-BoM group. No significant differences were observed in disease control rate (p = 0.407) or ORR (p = 0.537) between the two groups. The metastatic sites in the two groups exhibited obvious differences. In multivariate analysis, BoM was found to be an independent factor of worse prognosis. Conclusion BoM was identified as an independent inferior prognostic factor for EGFR-TKI treatment, and may have complex biological implications.

Abstract
Background Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-based immunotherapy has improved the clinical outcome of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, current indicators, such as programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression in tumors or tumor mutational burden (TMB), are not considered ideal biomarkers for prognosis. Thus, there is an urgent requirement for a comprehensive risk scoring system. Methods In this study, we enrolled 464 NSCLC patients who received ICIs between March 2017 and January 2020 at four clinical centers. Univariate and multivariate (the logistic and the Cox regression) analyses were conducted to screen clinically relevant variables. Significant parameters (P<0.05) including absolute lymphocyte count (ALC, L), Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS, E) and lung/pleural metastasis (M) were selected for LEM score. Weighted values based on odds ratio and hazard ratio of multiple analyses were assigned to each parameter. LEM score was the sum of weighted values of each variable (Good, 0-1; Intermediate, 2-3; Poor, 4-6). Kaplan-Meier curves were used to evaluate the association between LEM score and progression-free survival (PFS). Results In total, 258 patients were pooled and stratified into three risk categories based on the LEM score. Objective response rate (ORR) was significantly higher in the good-risk group compared with the poor-risk group [55.9% vs. 7.3%, odds ratio (OR), 0.023; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.005–0.099; P<0.001]. Patients with good risk [hazard ratio (HR), 0.130; 95% CI, 0.084–0.203; median PFS, 12.5 months; P<0.001] or intermediate risk (HR, 0.330; 95% CI, 0.222–0.490; median PFS, 4.2 months; P<0.001) had longer PFS than those with poor risk (median PFS, 2.1 months). DNA sequencing was performed in 41 patients [no durable benefit (NDB): n=29; durable clinical benefit (DCB): n=12] and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations were enriched in samples of the NDB group vs. the DCB group (11/29 vs. 1/12; Fisher’s exact P=0.073; OR, 6.722; 95% CI, 0.760–59.479). Additionally, patients with EGFR mutations had higher LEM scores than those with wild-type EGFR. Conclusions In conclusion, the LEM score provided a potential prognostic biomarker for NSCLC patients treated with ICIs.

Abstract
Background KRAS mutation is the most common genetic alteration in lung adenocarcinoma (LADC) in Western countries and is associated with worse outcome in bone-metastatic cases. Yet, to date, no effective treatment guidelines were developed for these patients. Accordingly, our aim was to investigate the impact of KRAS mutation on bisphosphonate (BTx) and radiation therapy (RTx) in bone-metastatic LADC patients. Methods Clinicopathological variables of 134 consecutive LADC patients with bone metastases at diagnosis and known KRAS status were retrospectively analyzed. The effects of BTx, RTx and KRAS mutation on overall survival (OS) were investigated. Results Of the total cohort, 93 patients were identified as KRAS wild-type (WT) (69.4%) and 41 (30.6%) as KRAS mutant patients. The presence of KRAS mutation was associated with significantly reduced median OS (5.1 vs. 10.2 months in KRAS WT patients; P=0.008). Irrespective of KRAS mutational status both BTx (P=0.007) and RTx (P=0.021) conferred a significant benefit for OS. Notably, however, when analyzing the patients with KRAS-mutant and KRAS WT tumors separately, the benefit from BTx and RTx on OS remained statistically significant only in KRAS WT patients (P=0.032 and P=0.031, respectively). Conclusions KRAS mutation is a strong negative prognostic factor in bone-metastatic LADC patients. Both BTx and RTx can increase the OS with a pronounced benefit for patients with KRAS WT tumors. Altogether, KRAS mutational status should be considered during therapeutic decision making in bone-metastatic LADC patients.

Abstract
Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency and median time for the development of metastases and prognosis by metastatic site after the diagnosis of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Patients & methods: This cohort study was conducted with 1096 patients diagnosed with NSCLC between 2006 and 2014. Results: The most prevalent site of NSCLC metastases was the respiratory system. The nervous and adrenal systems presented the longest median time for the development of metastases. The 6-month survival varied from 68.2% for liver to 79.9% for the nervous system. Bone metastases were associated with a higher risk of death. Conclusion: The respiratory system was the most prevalent site of metastases. OS and risk of death varied according to the metastatic site.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Brain metastasis prevalence is higher in patients with positive epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation, anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) and C-ROS oncogene 1 (ROS-1) fusion change in lung adenocarcinoma. OBJECTIVES The purpose of our study is to investigate the relation between the genetic change type and the initial distant metastasis in stage IV lung adenocarcinoma patients with genetic changes. METHODS The study was conducted between January 2007 and December 2018 in a retrospective fashion with patients who had lung cancer diagnosed as stage IV adenocarcinoma. The relation between genetic mutation change (EGFR, ALK or ROS-1) and distant metastasis was analysed. RESULTS A total of 845 patients were included in the study. The median age was 62 (28-88). It was determined that lung and pleura metastases were more frequent at a significant level in patients with positive EGFR mutation (P = 0.032, P = 0.004, respectively). In patients with positive ALK fusion change, pleura metastasis was determined to be more frequent (P = 0.001). Multiple metastases were determined to be significantly more in patients with positive ALK fusion change than single metastasis (P = 0.02). CONCLUSION In patients with EGFR mutant lung adenocarcinoma, lung and pleura metastasis is more frequent and pleura metastasis is more frequent in ALK positive adenocarcinoma. Additionally, multiple organ metastases are higher in ALK positive lung adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
Bone is a frequent site of metastases in many cancers. Both bone properties and the tumor-intrinsic traits are associated with the metastatic propensity to bone (i.e., the bone tropism). Whereas an increasing body of mechanistic studies expanded our understanding on bone tropism, they also revealed complexity across the bone lesions originated from different cancer types. In this review, we will discuss the physical, chemical, and biological properties of bone microenvironment, identify potential players in every stage of bone metastases, and introduce some of the known mechanisms regulating the bone colonization. Our objectives are to integrate the knowledge established in different biological contexts and highlight the determinants of bone tropism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Only a few randomized trials directly compared the relative efficacy of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in patients with advanced epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and most trials comprised selected series from Asian populations. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the overall survival (OS) of advanced EGFR-mutated NSCLC in a large white population and to evaluate variation between different TKIs and identify predictors of survival. PATIENTS AND METHODS Information about clinical characteristics, treatment, and survival for 873 patients with stage IV EGFR + NSCLC, diagnosed from 2015 through 2017, was derived from the Netherlands Cancer Registry. OS was evaluated by actuarial analysis and multivariable Cox regression. Prognostic factors are reported as hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals. RESULTS A total of 596 (68%) patients received first-line treatment with regular TKIs, providing a median survival of 20.2 months. Forty-five percent of patients were 70 years and older, and 54% of patients had distant metastasis in multiple organs. In the multivariate analysis, survival was significantly worse for men, and patients with higher age, poorer performance, and ≥ 3 organs with metastasis. Compared with erlotinib, OS was worse for gefitinib users (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.30; 95% confidence interval, 1.02-1.64), predominantly in patients with brain metastasis. CONCLUSION Dutch patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC who received first-line treatment with regular TKIs have a median OS of 20.2 months in a nationwide real-world cohort. In patients with brain metastasis, erlotinib showed superior results compared with gefitinib and was similar to afatinib.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of our study was to investigate the association between driver oncogene alterations and metastatic patterns on imaging assessment, in a large cohort of metastatic lung adenocarcinoma patients. METHODS From January 2010 to May 2017, 550 patients with stage IV lung adenocarcinoma with molecular analysis were studied retrospectively including 135 EGFR-mutated, 81 ALK-rearrangement, 47 BRAF-mutated, 141 KRAS-mutated, and 146 negative tumors for these 4 mutations (4N). After review of the complete imaging report by two radiologists (junior and senior) to identify metastatic sites, univariate correlation analyzes were performed. RESULTS We found differences in metastatic tropism depending on the molecular alteration type when compared with the non-mutated 4N group: in the EGFR group, pleural metastases were more frequent (32% versus 20%; p = 0.021), and adrenal and node metastases less common (6% versus 23%; p < 0.001 and 11% versus 23%; p = 0.011). In the ALK group, there were more brain and lung metastases (respectively 42% versus 29%; p = 0.043 and 37% versus 24%; p = 0.037). In the BRAF group, pleural and pericardial metastases were more common (respectively 47% versus 20%; p < 0.001 and 11% versus 3%; p = 0.04) and bone metastases were rarer (21% versus 42%; p = 0.011). Lymphangitis was more frequent in EGFR, ALK, and BRAF groups (respectively 6%, 7%, and 15% versus 1%); p = 0.016; p = 0.009; and p < 0.001. CONCLUSION The application of these correlations between molecular status and metastatic tropism in clinical practice may lead to earlier and more accurate identification of patients for targeted therapy. KEY POINTS • Bone and brain metastasis are the most common organs involved in lung adenocarcinoma but the relative incidence of each metastatic site depends on the molecular alteration. • EGFR-mutated tumors preferentially spread to the pleura and less commonly to adrenals, ALK-rearrangement tumors usually spread to the brain and the lungs, whereas BRAF-mutated tumors are unlikely to spread to bones and have a serous (pericardial ad pleural) tropism. • These correlations could help in the clinical management of patients with metastatic lung adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
The rearrangements of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) and the c-ros oncogene 1 (ROS1) have both been important driving factors in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). They have already been defined in 3-5% of NSCLC patients. ALK and ROS1 rearrangements are associated with unique clinical and pathological features, especially patients are usually younger, with milder or never smoking history, and adenocarcinoma histology. Also, they have both been found to contribute to the metastasis of NSCLC by cell migration and invasion. It has recently been recognized that the brain can be considered as a primary site for metastasis in cancers with ALK or ROS1 rearrangements. The present review summarizes the current status of NSCLC metastasis and possible mechanisms based on available evidence, and then we list possible therapeutic strategies so that an increase in control of ALK and ROS1 rearrangement of NSCLC metastases by combination therapy can be translated in an increase in overall survival and prognosis.
