Abstract
BACKGROUND Liquid biopsy (LB) is used to detect epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and has been demonstrated to have prognostic and predictive value. OBJECTIVE To associate the rates of EGFR and T790M mutations detected by LB during disease progression after first- or second-generation EGFR-TKIs with clinical characteristics and survival outcomes. METHODS From January 2018 to December 2021, 295 patients with advanced EGFR mutant (EGFRm) NSCLC treated with first- or second-generation EGFR-TKIs were retrospectively analyzed. LB was collected at the time of progression. The frequency of EGFRT790M mutations, overall survival (OS), and the clinical characteristics associated with LB positivity were determined. RESULTS The prevalence of EGFRT790M mutation detected using LB was 44%. In patients with negative vs. positive LB, the median OS was 45.0 months vs. 25.0 months (p= 0.0001), respectively. Patients with a T790M mutation receiving osimertinib had a median OS of 44 months (95% CI [33.05-54.99]). Clinical characteristics associated with positive LB at progression extra-thoracic involvement, > 3 metastatic sites, and bone metastases. CONCLUSIONS Our findings showed that LB positivity was associated with worse survival outcomes and specific clinical characteristics. This study also confirmed the feasibility and detection rate of T790M mutation in a Latin American population.

Factors associated with outcomes of second-line treatment for EGFR-mutant non-small-cell lung cancer patients after progression on first- or second-generation EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment. Front Oncol 2023; 13:1104098. [PMID: 37409246 PMCID: PMC10318893 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2023.1104098] [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: 11/21/2022] [Accepted: 05/30/2023] [Indexed: 07/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose Epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) are standard first-line treatments for advanced EGFR-mutant non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. However, factors associated with outcomes after progression on first-line therapy are seldom investigated. Materials and methods From January 2016 to December 2020, we enrolled 242 EGFR-mutant stage IIIB-IV NSCLC patients who progressed on first- or second-generation EGFR-TKI treatments, and 206 of them receive second-line treatments after disease progression. The factors that predict the survival outcomes of different second-line treatments after disease progression were evaluated. Clinical and demographic characteristics, including metastatic sites, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) at first-line progression, and second-line treatment regimens, and whether re-biopsied after disease progression or not, were reviewed for outcome analysis. Results The univariate analysis showed that the PFS was shorted in male patients (p =0.049), patients with ECOG performance state ≥ 2 (p =0.014), former smokers (p =0.003), patients with brain metastasis (p =0.04), second-line chemotherapy or EGFR-TKIs other than osimertinib (p =0.002), and NLR ≥5.0 (p=0.024). In addition, second-line osimertinib was associated with longer OS compared to chemotherapy and other EGFR-TKI treatment (p =0.001). In the multivariate analysis, only second-line osimertinib was an independent predictor of PFS (p =0.023). Re-biopsy after first-line treatment was associated with a trend of better OS. Patients with NLR ≥5.0 at disease progression had shorter OS than patients with NLR <5.0 (p = 0.008). Conclusion The benefits of osimertinib necessitate that aggressive re-biopsy after progression on first- or second-generation EGFR-TKI treatment is merited for appropriate second-line treatments to provide better outcomes for these patients.

Monitoring of T790M in plasma ctDNA of advanced EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients on first- or second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors. BMC Cancer 2023; 23:234. [PMID: 36915101 PMCID: PMC10010021 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-023-10698-5] [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: 01/07/2023] [Accepted: 03/02/2023] [Indexed: 03/16/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The T790M mutation is the major resistance mechanism to first- and second-generation TKIs in EGFR-mutant NSCLC. This study aimed to investigate the utility of droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) for detection of T790M in plasma circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), and explore its impact on prognosis. METHODS This prospective study enrolled 80 advanced lung adenocarcinoma patients treated with gefitinib, erlotinib, or afatinib for TKI-sensitizing mutations between 2015 and 2019. Plasma samples were collected before TKI therapy and at tri-monthly intervals thereafter. Genotyping of ctDNA for T790M was performed using a ddPCR EGFR Mutation Assay. Patients were followed up until the date of death or to the end of 2021. RESULTS Seventy-five of 80 patients experienced progressive disease. Fifty-three (71%) of 75 patients underwent rebiopsy, and T790M mutation was identified in 53% (28/53) of samples. Meanwhile, plasma ddPCR detected T790M mutation in 23 (43%) of 53 patients. The concordance rate of T790M between ddPCR and rebiopsy was 76%, and ddPCR identified 4 additional T790M-positive patients. Ten (45%) of 22 patients who did not receive rebiopsy tested positive for T790M by ddPCR. Serial ddPCR analysis showed the time interval from detection of plasma T790M to objective progression was 1.1 (0-4.1) months. Compared to 28 patients with rebiopsy showing T790M, the overall survival of 14 patients with T790M detected solely by ddPCR was shorter(41.3 [95% CI, 36.6-46.0] vs. 26.6 months [95% CI, 9.9-43.3], respectively). CONCLUSION Plasma ddPCR-based genotyping is a useful technology for detection and monitoring of the key actionable genomic alteration, namely, T790M, in patients treated with gefitinib, erlotinib, or afatinib for activating mutations, to achieve better patient care and outcome.

Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:cancers15051445. [PMID: 36900237 PMCID: PMC10000691 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15051445] [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: 01/10/2023] [Revised: 02/18/2023] [Accepted: 02/22/2023] [Indexed: 03/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Detection of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) T790M mutation using plasma samples has been considered simple and non-invasive, but the relatively high false negative results lead to additional tissue sampling in some patients. Until now, the characteristics of patients who prefer liquid biopsy have not yet been established. METHODS To evaluate the favorable conditions for the detection of T790M mutations using plasma samples, a multicenter retrospective study was performed between May 2018 and December 2021. Patients whose T790M mutation was detected in a plasma sample were classified as the plasma positive group. Study subjects with a T790M mutation not detected in a plasma sample but only in a tissue sample were grouped as the plasma false negative group. RESULTS Plasma positive and plasma false negative groups were found in 74 and 32 patients, respectively. As a result, 40% of patients with one or two metastatic organs at the time of re-biopsy had false negative plasma sample results, and 69% of patients with three or more metastatic organs at the time of re-biopsy had positive plasma results. In multivariate analysis, three or more metastatic organs at initial diagnosis were independently associated with the detection of a T790M mutation using plasma samples. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrated that the detection rate of a T790M mutation using plasma samples was related to the tumor burden, particularly to the number of metastatic organs.

Liquid biopsy for detecting epidermal growth factor receptor mutation among patients with non-small cell lung cancer treated with afatinib: a multicenter prospective study. BMC Cancer 2022; 22:1035. [PMID: 36192767 PMCID: PMC9531433 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-022-10135-z] [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: 07/13/2022] [Accepted: 09/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Background This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of liquid biopsy in detecting epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations at diagnosis, disease progression, and intermediate stages. Methods This prospective, multicenter, observational study included 30 patients with non-small cell lung cancer treated with afatinib, harboring a major EGFR mutation confirmed by tumor tissue biopsy. We collected blood samples for liquid biopsy at diagnosis, intermediate stage, and progressive disease. Tissue and liquid biopsies were examined using Cobas ® EGFR Mutation Test v2. Results Liquid biopsy detected EGFR mutations in 63.6% of the patients at diagnosis. The presence of metastasis in the extrathoracic, brain, and adrenal glands correlated positively with the detection of EGFR mutations. Patients with positive EGFR mutations at diagnosis had significantly shorter overall and progression-free survival than patients with negative EGFR mutations. Four of the 18 patients (22.2%) who reached progressive disease had positive EGFR T790M mutations. Three of 10 patients (30.0%) with progressive disease were positive and negative for T790M using tumor re-biopsy and liquid biopsy, respectively. The results of EGFR mutation by tissue re-biopsy were the same as those of liquid biopsy in the three patients who were positive for significant EGFR mutations but negative for the T790M mutation using liquid biopsy at progressing disease. Only two patients were positive for major EGFR mutations at intermediate levels. Conclusions Liquid biopsy can be a prognostic factor in EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatments at diagnosis. Tumor re-biopsy can be omitted in patients with positive EGFR mutations by liquid biopsy at PD.
