Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated racism experienced by Asian Americans, especially women and older individuals. Little is known about how discriminatory experiences during the pandemic have influenced health behaviors among Asian Americans. Between 10/2021 and 6/2022, we surveyed 193 Asian American women in the San Francisco area. Participants were asked to report types of discrimination they experienced since March 2020. We explored bivariable associations of discrimination and changes in health behaviors and healthcare utilization. Most women were Chinese American (75%) and over 45-years-old (87%). The top three discriminatory experiences reported were being treated with less respect (60%), being treated unfairly at restaurants/stores (49%), and people acting as if they are better (47%). Chinese American women (vs. non-Chinese Asian American women) reported higher frequencies of being threatened/harassed (40% vs. 22%). Women who reported any discriminatory experience (vs. none) were more likely to report less physical exercise (42.7% vs. 26.3%) and canceling/rescheduling medical appointments (65.0% vs. 45.1%). Our findings begin to elucidate Asian American women's experiences of discrimination since the pandemic and provide evidence of the harmful impacts of anti-Asian racism on health behaviors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent therapeutic advances and screening technologies have improved survival among patients with lung cancer, who are now at high risk of developing second primary lung cancer (SPLC). Recently, an SPLC risk-prediction model (called SPLC-RAT) was developed and validated using data from population-based epidemiological cohorts and clinical trials, but real-world validation has been lacking. The predictive performance of SPLC-RAT was evaluated in a hospital-based cohort of lung cancer survivors. METHODS The authors analyzed data from 8448 ever-smoking patients diagnosed with initial primary lung cancer (IPLC) in 1997-2006 at Mayo Clinic, with each patient followed for SPLC through 2018. The predictive performance of SPLC-RAT and further explored the potential of improving SPLC detection through risk model-based surveillance using SPLC-RAT versus existing clinical surveillance guidelines. RESULTS Of 8448 IPLC patients, 483 (5.7%) developed SPLC over 26,470 person-years. The application of SPLC-RAT showed high discrimination area under the receiver operating characteristics curve: 0.81). When the cohort was stratified by a 10-year risk threshold of ≥5.6% (i.e., 80th percentile from the SPLC-RAT development cohort), the observed SPLC incidence was significantly elevated in the high-risk versus low-risk subgroup (13.1% vs. 1.1%, p < 1 × 10-6 ). The risk-based surveillance through SPLC-RAT (≥5.6% threshold) outperformed the National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines with higher sensitivity (86.4% vs. 79.4%) and specificity (38.9% vs. 30.4%) and required 20% fewer computed tomography follow-ups needed to detect one SPLC (162 vs. 202). CONCLUSION In a large, hospital-based cohort, the authors validated the predictive performance of SPLC-RAT in identifying high-risk survivors of SPLC and showed its potential to improve SPLC detection through risk-based surveillance. PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY Lung cancer survivors have a high risk of developing second primary lung cancer (SPLC). However, no evidence-based guidelines for SPLC surveillance are available for lung cancer survivors. Recently, an SPLC risk-prediction model was developed and validated using data from population-based epidemiological cohorts and clinical trials, but real-world validation has been lacking. Using a large, real-world cohort of lung cancer survivors, we showed the high predictive accuracy and risk-stratification ability of the SPLC risk-prediction model. Furthermore, we demonstrated the potential to enhance efficiency in detecting SPLC using risk model-based surveillance strategies compared to the existing consensus-based clinical guidelines, including the National Comprehensive Cancer Network.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Amivantamab-vmjw (amivantamab) is a bispecific EGFR/MET antibody approved for patients with advanced NSCLC with EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations, after prior therapy. Nevertheless, the benefits and safety of amivantamab in other EGFR-mutant lung cancer, with or without osimertinib, and with concurrent radiation therapy, are less known. METHODS We queried the MD Anderson Lung Cancer GEMINI, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, University of California Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center, and Stanford Cancer Center's database for patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC treated with amivantamab, not on a clinical trial. The data analyzed included initial response, duration of treatment, and concomitant radiation safety in overall population and prespecified subgroups. RESULTS A total of 61 patients received amivantamab. Median age was 65 (31-81) years old; 72.1% were female; and 77% were patients with never smoking history. Median number of prior lines of therapies was four. On the basis of tumor's EGFR mutation, 39 patients were in the classical mutation cohort, 15 patients in the exon 20 cohort, and seven patients in the atypical cohort. There were 37 patients (58.7%) who received amivantamab concomitantly with osimertinib and 25 patients (39.1%) who received concomitant radiation. Furthermore, 54 patients were assessable for response in the overall population; 19 patients (45.2%) had clinical response and disease control rate (DCR) was 64.3%. In the classical mutation cohort of the 33 assessable patients, 12 (36.4%) had clinical response and DCR was 48.5%. In the atypical mutation cohort, six of the seven patients (85.7%) had clinical response and DCR was 100%. Of the 13 assessable patients in the exon 20 cohort, five patients (35.7%) had clinical response and DCR was 64.3%. Adverse events reported with amivantamab use were similar as previously described in product labeling. No additional toxicities were noted when amivantamab was given with radiation with or without osimertinib. CONCLUSIONS Our real-world multicenter analysis revealed that amivantamab is a potentially effective treatment option for patients with EGFR mutations outside of exon 20 insertion mutations. The combination of osimertinib with amivantamab is safe and feasible. Radiation therapy also seems safe when administered sequentially or concurrently with amivantamab.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES Adoption of hypofractionated accelerated radiation therapy (HART) with concurrent chemotherapy has been limited by toxicity concerns. We aimed to describe outcomes of patients treated with HART and concurrent chemotherapy and to evaluate dosimetry to organs at risk to guide patient selection. MATERIALS/METHODS We evaluated a retrospective cohort of NSCLC patients treated with concurrent chemotherapy with HART (>2.2 Gy per fraction) or standard fractionated radiation therapy (SFRT; 2-2.2 Gy fractions). Dosimetric parameters to key organs at risk were compared, and toxicity, patterns of recurrence and survival were calculated for the cohorts. RESULTS Fifty-three patients treated with HART were compared with 100 patients treated with SFRT. Median dose per fraction for the HART cohort was 2.75 Gy (range 2.4-3 Gy). HART patients had significantly lower doses to the lung, heart, and esophagus due to patient selection. The HART group and had rates of grade 2+ pneumonitis (9.4 vs. 19%, P = .16) and grade 2+ esophagitis (20.8 vs. 45%, P < .01) that compared favorably to SFRT. Cumulative incidence of in-field recurrence trended lower in the HART cohort (7.6% vs. 23.1%, P = .058). Among the HART group, 88.7% (47/53) met the newly proposed lung constraints based on the degree of hypofractionation CONCLUSION: In select patients with favorable dosimetry to organs at risk, definitive HART with concurrent chemotherapy achieved excellent local control with low toxicity. These results are being used to inform a prospective study on the safety and efficacy of HART with concurrent chemotherapy for select NSCLC patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Durvalumab improves survival when used as consolidation therapy after chemoradiation (CRT) in patients with stage III NSCLC. The optimal consolidation therapy for patients with EGFR-mutant (EGFRmut) stage III NSCLC remains unknown. METHODS In this multi-institutional, international retrospective analysis across 24 institutions, we evaluated outcomes in patients with stage III EGFRmut NSCLC treated with concurrent CRT followed by consolidation therapy with osimertinib, durvalumab, or observation between 2015 and 2022. Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate real-world progression-free survival (rwPFS, primary end point) and overall survival (secondary end point). Treatment-related adverse events (trAEs) during consolidation treatment were defined using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 5.0. Multivariable Cox regression analysis was used. RESULTS Of 136 patients with stage III EGFRmut NSCLC treated with definitive concurrent CRT, 56 received consolidation durvalumab, 33 received consolidation osimertinib, and 47 was on observation alone. Baseline characteristics were similar across the three cohorts. With a median follow-up of 46 months for the entire cohort, the median duration of treatment was not reached (NR) for osimertinib (interquartile range: NR-NR) and was 5.5 (interquartile range: 2.4-10.8) months with durvalumab. After adjusting for nodal status, stage III A/B/C, and age, patients treated with consolidation osimertinib had significantly longer 24-month rwPFS compared to those treated with durvalumab or in the observation cohorts (osimertinib: 86%, durvalumab: 30%, observation: 27%, p < 0.001 for both comparisons). There was no difference in rwPFS between the durvalumab and the observation cohorts. No significant difference in overall survival across the three cohorts was detected, likely due to the limited follow-up. Any-grade trAE occurred in 52% (2 [6.1%] grade ≥3) and 48% (10 [18%] grade ≥3) of patients treated with osimertinib and durvalumab, respectively. Of 45 patients who progressed on consolidation durvalumab, 37 (82%) subsequently received EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Of these, 14 (38%) patients developed trAEs including five patients with pneumonitis (14%; 2 [5.4%] grade ≥3) and five patients with diarrhea (14%; 1 [2.7%] grade ≥3). CONCLUSIONS This study suggests that among patients with stage III unresectable NSCLC with a sensitizing EGFR mutation, consolidation osimertinib was associated with a significantly longer rwPFS compared to durvalumab or observation. No unanticipated safety signals were observed with consolidation osimertinib.

Abstract
MOTIVATION Providing a dynamic assessment of prognosis is essential for improved personalized medicine. The landmark model for survival data provides a potentially powerful solution to the dynamic prediction of disease progression. However, a general framework and a flexible implementation of the model that incorporates various outcomes, such as competing events, have been lacking. We present an R package, dynamicLM, a user-friendly tool for the landmark model for the dynamic prediction of survival data under competing risks, which includes various functions for data preparation, model development, prediction and evaluation of predictive performance. IMPLEMENTATION dynamicLM as an R package. GENERAL FEATURES The package includes options for incorporating time-varying covariates, capturing time-dependent effects of predictors and fitting a cause-specific landmark model for time-to-event data with or without competing risks. Tools for evaluating the prediction performance include time-dependent area under the ROC curve, Brier Score and calibration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with thoracic malignancies who develop COVID-19 infection have a higher hospitalization rate compared to the general population and to those with other cancer types, but how this outcome differs by race and ethnicity is relatively understudied. METHODS The TERAVOLT database is an international, multi-center repository of cross-sectional and longitudinal data studying the impact of COVID-19 on individuals with thoracic malignancies. Patients from North America with thoracic malignancies and confirmed COVID-19 infection were included for this analysis of racial and ethnic disparities. Patients with missing race data or races and ethnicities with fewer than 50 patients were excluded from analysis. Multivariable analyses for endpoints of hospitalization and death were performed on these 471 patients. RESULTS Of the 471 patients, 73% were White and 27% were Black. The majority (90%) were non-Hispanic ethnicity, 5% were Hispanic, and 4% were missing ethnicity data. Black patients were more likely to have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status ≥ 2 (p-value = 0.04). On multivariable analysis, Black patients were more likely than White patients to require hospitalization (Odds Ratio (OR): 1.69, 95% CI: 1.01-2.83, p-value = 0.044). These differences remained across different waves of the pandemic. However, no statistically significant difference in mortality was found between Black and White patients (OR 1.29, 95% CI: 0.69-2.40, p-value = 0.408). CONCLUSIONS Black patients with thoracic malignancies who acquire COVID-19 infection are at a significantly higher risk of hospitalization compared to White patients, but there is no significant difference in mortality. The underlying drivers of racial disparity among patients with thoracic malignancies and COVID-19 infection require ongoing investigation.

Abstract
Importance The revised 2021 US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) guidelines for lung cancer screening have been shown to reduce disparities in screening eligibility and performance between African American and White individuals vs the 2013 guidelines. However, potential disparities across other racial and ethnic groups in the US remain unknown. Risk model-based screening may reduce racial and ethnic disparities and improve screening performance, but neither validation of key risk prediction models nor their screening performance has been examined by race and ethnicity. Objective To validate and recalibrate the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian Cancer Screening Trial 2012 (PLCOm2012) model-a well-established risk prediction model based on a predominantly White population-across races and ethnicities in the US and evaluate racial and ethnic disparities and screening performance through risk-based screening using PLCOm2012 vs the USPSTF 2021 criteria. Design, Setting, and Participants In a population-based cohort design, the Multiethnic Cohort Study enrolled participants in 1993-1996, followed up through December 31, 2018. Data analysis was conducted from April 1, 2022, to May 19. 2023. A total of 105 261 adults with a smoking history were included. Exposures The 6-year lung cancer risk was calculated through recalibrated PLCOm2012 (ie, PLCOm2012-Update) and screening eligibility based on a 6-year risk threshold greater than or equal to 1.3%, yielding similar eligibility as the USPSTF 2021 guidelines. Outcomes Predictive accuracy, screening eligibility-incidence (E-I) ratio (ie, ratio of the number of eligible to incident cases), and screening performance (sensitivity, specificity, and number needed to screen to detect 1 lung cancer). Results Of 105 261 participants (60 011 [57.0%] men; mean [SD] age, 59.8 [8.7] years), consisting of 19 258 (18.3%) African American, 27 227 (25.9%) Japanese American, 21 383 (20.3%) Latino, 8368 (7.9%) Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander, and 29 025 (27.6%) White individuals, 1464 (1.4%) developed lung cancer within 6 years from enrollment. The PLCOm2012-Update showed good predictive accuracy across races and ethnicities (area under the curve, 0.72-0.82). The USPSTF 2021 criteria yielded a large disparity among African American individuals, whose E-I ratio was 53% lower vs White individuals (E-I ratio: 9.5 vs 20.3; P < .001). Under the risk-based screening (PLCOm2012-Update 6-year risk ≥1.3%), the disparity between African American and White individuals was substantially reduced (E-I ratio: 15.9 vs 18.4; P < .001), with minimal disparities observed in persons of other minoritized groups, including Japanese American, Latino, and Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander. Risk-based screening yielded superior overall and race and ethnicity-specific performance to the USPSTF 2021 criteria, with higher overall sensitivity (67.2% vs 57.7%) and lower number needed to screen (26 vs 30) at similar specificity (76.6%). Conclusions The findings of this cohort study suggest that risk-based lung cancer screening can reduce racial and ethnic disparities and improve screening performance across races and ethnicities vs the USPSTF 2021 criteria.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have never smoked or have tumors with mutations in EGFR generally derive minimal benefit from single-agent PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitors. Prior data indicate that adding PD-L1 inhibition to anti-VEGF and cytotoxic chemotherapy may be a promising approach to overcoming immunotherapy resistance in these patients, however prospective validation is needed. This trial in progress (NCT03786692) is evaluating patients with stage IV NSCLC who have never smoked or who have tumors with sensitizing EGFR alterations to determine if a 4-drug combination of atezolizumab, carboplatin, pemetrexed, and bevacizumab can improve outcomes compared to carboplatin, pemetrexed and bevacizumab without atezolizumab. METHODS This is a randomized, phase II, multicenter study evaluating carboplatin, pemetrexed, bevacizumab with and without atezolizumab in 117 patients with stage IV nonsquamous NSCLC. Randomization is 2 to 1 favoring the atezolizumab containing arm. Eligible patients include: 1) those with tumors with sensitizing EGFR alterations in exons 19 or 21 or 2) patients who have never smoked and have wild-type tumors (ie, no EGFR, ALK or ROS1 alterations). Patients are defined as having never smoked if they have smoked less than 100 cigarettes in a lifetime. Patients with EGFR-mutated tumors must have disease progression or intolerance to prior tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy. The primary endpoint is progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary endpoints include overall survival (OS), response rate, duration of response, and time to response. CONCLUSION This phase II trial is accruing patients at U.S. sites through the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN). The trial opened in August 2019 and accrual is expected to be completed in the Fall of 2024.

Abstract
Importance Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) is used for treating lung tumors but can cause toxic effects, including life-threatening damage to central structures. Retrospective data suggested that small tumors up to 10 cm3 in volume can be well controlled with a biologically effective dose less than 100 Gy. Objective To assess whether individualizing lung SABR dose and fractionation by tumor size, location, and histological characteristics may be associated with local tumor control. Design, Setting, and Participants This nonrandomized controlled trial (the iSABR trial, so named for individualized SABR) was a phase 2 multicenter trial enrolling participants from November 15, 2011, to December 5, 2018, at academic medical centers in the US and Japan. Data were analyzed from December 9, 2020, to May 10, 2023. Patients were enrolled in 3 groups according to cancer type: initial diagnosis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with an American Joint Committee on Cancer 7th edition T1-3N0M0 tumor (group 1), a T1-3N0M0 new primary NSCLC with a history of prior NSCLC or multiple NSCLCs (group 2), or lung metastases from NSCLC or another solid tumor (group 3). Intervention Up to 4 tumors were treated with once-daily SABR. The dose ranged from 25 Gy in 1 fraction for peripheral tumors with a volume of 0 to 10 cm3 to 60 Gy in 8 fractions for central tumors with a volume greater than 30 cm3. Main outcome Per-group freedom from local recurrence (same-lobe recurrence) at 1 year, with censoring at time of distant recurrence, death, or loss to follow-up. Results In total, 217 unique patients (median [IQR] age, 72 [64-80] years; 129 [59%] male; 150 [69%] current or former smokers) were enrolled (some multiple times). There were 240 treatment courses: 79 in group 1, 82 in group 2, and 79 in group 3. A total of 285 tumors (211 [74%] peripheral and 74 [26%] central) were treated. The most common dose was 25 Gy in 1 fraction (158 tumors). The median (range) follow-up period was 33 (2-109) months, and the median overall survival was 59 (95% CI, 49-82) months. Freedom from local recurrence at 1 year was 97% (90% CI, 91%-99%) for group 1, 94% (90% CI, 87%-97%) for group 2, and 96% (90% CI, 89%-98%) for group 3. Freedom from local recurrence at 5 years ranged from 83% to 93% in the 3 groups. The proportion of patients with grade 3 to 5 toxic effects was low, at 5% (including a single patient [1%] with grade 5 toxic effects). Conclusions and Relevance The results of this nonrandomized controlled trial suggest that individualized SABR (iSABR) used to treat lung tumors may allow minimization of treatment dose and is associated with excellent local control. Individualized dosing should be considered for use in future trials. Trial Registration ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT01463423.

Abstract
Importance Lung cancer among never-smokers accounts for 25% of all lung cancers in the US; recent therapeutic advances have improved survival among patients with initial primary lung cancer (IPLC), who are now at high risk of developing second primary lung cancer (SPLC). As smoking rates continue to decline in the US, it is critical to examine more closely the epidemiology of lung cancer among patients who never smoked, including their risk for SPLC. Objective To estimate and compare the cumulative SPLC incidence among lung cancer survivors who have never smoked vs those who have ever smoked. Design, Setting, and Participants This population-based prospective cohort study used data from the Multiethnic Cohort Study (MEC), which enrolled participants between April 18, 1993, and December 31, 1996, with follow-up through July 1, 2017. Eligible individuals for this study were aged 45 to 75 years and had complete smoking data at baseline. These participants were followed up for IPLC and further SPLC development through the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results registry. The data were analyzed from July 1, 2022, to January 31, 2023. Exposures Never-smoking vs ever-smoking exposure at MEC enrollment. Main Outcomes and Measures The study had 2 primary outcomes: (1) 10-year cumulative incidence of IPLC in the entire study cohort and 10-year cumulative incidence of SPLC among patients with IPLC and (2) standardized incidence ratio (SIR) (calculated as the SPLC incidence divided by the IPLC incidence) by smoking history. Results Among 211 414 MEC participants, 7161 (3.96%) developed IPLC over 4 038 007 person-years, and 163 (2.28%) developed SPLC over 16 470 person-years. Of the participants with IPLC, the mean (SD) age at cohort enrollment was 63.6 (7.7) years, 4031 (56.3%) were male, and 3131 (43.7%) were female. The 10-year cumulative IPLC incidence was 2.40% (95% CI, 2.31%-2.49%) among ever-smokers, which was 7 times higher than never-smokers (0.34%; 95% CI, 0.30%-0.37%). However, the 10-year cumulative SPLC incidence following IPLC was as high among never-smokers (2.84%; 95% CI, 1.50%-4.18%) as ever-smokers (2.72%; 95% CI, 2.24%-3.20%), which led to a substantially higher SIR for never-smokers (14.50; 95% CI, 8.73-22.65) vs ever-smokers (3.50; 95% CI, 2.95-4.12). Conclusions and Relevance The findings indicate that SPLC risk among lung cancer survivors who never smoked is as high as among those with IPLC who ever-smoked, highlighting the need to identify risk factors for SPLC among patients who never smoked and to develop a targeted surveillance strategy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND IMpower010 (NCT02486718) demonstrated significantly improved disease-free survival (DFS) with adjuvant atezolizumab versus best supportive care (BSC) following platinum-based chemotherapy in the programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1)-positive and all stage II-IIIA non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) populations, at the DFS interim analysis. Results of the first interim analysis of overall survival (OS) are reported here. PATIENT AND METHODS The design, participants, and primary-endpoint DFS outcomes have been reported for this phase III, open-label, 1 : 1 randomised study of atezolizumab (1200 mg q3w; 16 cycles) versus BSC after adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy (1-4 cycles) in adults with completely resected stage IB (≥4 cm)-IIIA NSCLC (per the Union Internationale Contre le Cancer and American Joint Committee on Cancer staging system, 7th edition). Key secondary endpoints included OS in the stage IB-IIIA intent-to-treat (ITT) population and safety in randomised treated patients. The first pre-specified interim analysis of OS was conducted after 251 deaths in the ITT population. Exploratory analyses included OS by baseline PD-L1 expression level (SP263 assay). RESULTS At a median of 45.3 months' follow-up on 18 April 2022, 127 of 507 patients (25%) in the atezolizumab arm and 124 of 498 (24.9%) in the BSC arm had died. The median OS in the ITT population was not estimable; the stratified hazard ratio (HR) was 0.995 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.78-1.28]. The stratified OS HRs (95% CI) were 0.95 (0.74-1.24) in the stage II-IIIA (n = 882), 0.71 (0.49-1.03) in the stage II-IIIA PD-L1 tumour cell (TC) ≥1% (n = 476), and 0.43 (95% CI 0.24-0.78) in the stage II-IIIA PD-L1 TC ≥50% (n = 229) populations. Atezolizumab-related adverse event incidences remained unchanged since the previous analysis [grade 3/4 in 53 (10.7%) and grade 5 in 4 (0.8%) of 495 patients, respectively]. CONCLUSIONS Although OS remains immature for the ITT population, these data indicate a positive trend favouring atezolizumab in PD-L1 subgroup analyses, primarily driven by the PD-L1 TC ≥50% stage II-IIIA subgroup. No new safety signals were observed after 13 months' additional follow-up. Together, these findings support the positive benefit-risk profile of adjuvant atezolizumab in this setting.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) Although osimertinib (osi) has excellent intracranial activity in EGFR-mutant metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), there is no consensus regarding whether to continue osi for central nervous system (CNS) control with second-line chemotherapy (chemo) at the time of systemic progression. We aimed to compare CNS outcomes after first-line osi in patients receiving second-line chemo with or without continuation of osi. MATERIALS/METHODS We retrospectively reviewed patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC with brain metastases (BrM) at the time of initiating first-line osi who experienced progression and started second-line chemo. Cumulative incidence of local and distant CNS progression, and extracranial (EC) progression was calculated from time of second-line chemo initiation with death as a competing risk. Overall survival (OS) was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier. RESULTS We included 52 patients with a median follow up of 9.6 months (range 0.4-36.4). Median OS and CNS progression-free survival (PFS) from the time of starting second-line chemo was 12.5 months (95% CI 8.1-16.9), and 5.3 months (95% CI 3.35-7.26), respectively. The 1-year cumulative incidence of local, distant CNS progression, any CNS progression, and EC progression was 14.4% (95% CI 4.5-24.2), 42.8% (95% CI 22.8-56.8), 42.8% (95% CI 22.8-56.8) and 66.8% (95% CI 53.5-80.2), respectively. After progression on first-line osi, 25 (48.1%) and 27 patients (51.9%) continued and discontinued osi, respectively. Patients who continued osi had significantly higher BrM burden than those who did not, with 17 (68%), 3 (12%), and 5 (20%) versus 26 (96%), 0, and 1 (3.7%) patient having <10 or >11 parenchymal brain lesions, or leptomeningeal disease (LMD) at the time of second line therapy, respectively (p<0.01). In those who continued osi vs those who did not, median OS (10.8 vs 12.5 months; p = 0.37), median intracranial PFS (5.3 vs 4.8 months; p = 0.99), 1-year cumulative incidence of local (8.4% versus 20 % p = 0.26), and 1-year distant CNS progression (24.8% vs 60%; p = 0.08) was not significantly different. CNS complications such as symptomatic, hospitalizations, and steroid initiation for CNS disease, and progression of LMD were not significantly different between the two groups. Eventually, 10 patients underwent salvage RT post first-line osi and median time to salvage RT was 7.8 months (range 2-9.4). Of patients who underwent salvage RT, 2 patients (20%) had continued osi with second-line chemo. Twelve patients (44.4%) who did not continue osi eventually re-started osi for progressive disease. CONCLUSION Patients who continued osi had significantly higher BrM tumor burden. Despite these patients being at higher risk for CNS progression, time to CNS progression and incidence of CNS complications were not significantly different in the two cohorts. Patients who discontinued osi were more likely to undergo salvage RT. Continuation of osi may allow patients to defer salvage RT.

Abstract
The Oncology Grand Rounds series is designed to place original reports published in the Journal into clinical context. A case presentation is followed by a description of diagnostic and management challenges, a review of the relevant literature, and a summary of the authors' suggested management approaches. The goal of this series is to help readers better understand how to apply the results of key studies, including those published in Journal of Clinical Oncology, to patients seen in their own clinical practice.Lung cancer screening has been demonstrated to reduce lung cancer mortality, but its benefits must be weighed against the potential harms of unnecessary procedures, false-positive radiological findings, and overdiagnosis. Individuals at highest risk of lung cancer are more likely to maximize benefits while minimizing harm from screening. Although current lung cancer screening guidelines recommended by the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) only consider age and smoking history for screening eligibility, National Comprehensive Cancer Network and other society guidelines recommend screening on the basis of individualized risk assessment including family history, environmental exposures, and presence of chronic lung disease. Risk prediction models have been developed to integrate various risk factors into an individualized risk prediction score. Previous evidence showed that risk prediction model-based screening eligibility could improve sensitivity for detecting lung cancer cases without reducing specificity. Furthermore, recent advances in lung cancer biomarkers have enhanced the performance of risk prediction in identifying lung cancer cases relative to the USPSTF criteria. These risk prediction models can be used to guide shared decision-making discussions before proceeding with lung cancer screening. This study aims to provide a concise overview of these prediction models and the emerging role of biomarker testing in risk prediction to facilitate conversations with patients. The goal was to assist clinicians in assessing individual patient risk, leading to more informed decision making.

Abstract
Importance Despite recent breakthroughs in therapy, advanced lung cancer still poses a therapeutic challenge. The survival profile of patients with metastatic lung cancer remains poorly understood by metastatic disease type (ie, de novo stage IV vs distant recurrence). Objective To evaluate the association of metastatic disease type on overall survival (OS) among patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and to identify potential mechanisms underlying any survival difference. Design, Setting, and Participants Cohort study of a national US population based at a tertiary referral center in the San Francisco Bay Area using participant data from the National Lung Screening Trial (NLST) who were enrolled between 2002 and 2004 and followed up for up to 7 years as the primary cohort and patient data from Stanford Healthcare (SHC) for diagnoses between 2009 and 2019 and followed up for up to 13 years as the validation cohort. Participants from NLST with de novo metastatic or distant recurrent NSCLC diagnoses were included. Data were analyzed from January 2021 to March 2023. Exposures De novo stage IV vs distant recurrent metastatic disease. Main Outcomes and Measures OS after diagnosis of metastatic disease. Results The NLST and SHC cohort consisted of 660 and 180 participants, respectively (411 men [62.3%] vs 109 men [60.6%], 602 White participants [91.2%] vs 111 White participants [61.7%], and mean [SD] age of 66.8 [5.5] vs 71.4 [7.9] years at metastasis, respectively). Patients with distant recurrence showed significantly better OS than patients with de novo metastasis (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 0.72; 95% CI, 0.60-0.87; P < .001) in NLST, which was replicated in SHC (aHR, 0.64; 95% CI, 0.43-0.96; P = .03). In SHC, patients with de novo metastasis more frequently progressed to the bone (63 patients with de novo metastasis [52.5%] vs 19 patients with distant recurrence [31.7%]) or pleura (40 patients with de novo metastasis [33.3%] vs 8 patients with distant recurrence [13.3%]) than patients with distant recurrence and were primarily detected through symptoms (102 patients [85.0%]) as compared with posttreatment surveillance (47 patients [78.3%]) in the latter. The main finding remained consistent after further adjusting for metastasis sites and detection methods. Conclusions and Relevance In this cohort study, patients with distant recurrent NSCLC had significantly better OS than those with de novo disease, and the latter group was associated with characteristics that may affect overall survival. This finding can help inform future clinical trial designs to ensure a balance for baseline patient characteristics.

Abstract
Molecular modifiers of KRASG12C inhibitor (KRASG12Ci) efficacy in advanced KRASG12C-mutant NSCLC are poorly defined. In a large unbiased clinicogenomic analysis of 424 patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), we identified and validated coalterations in KEAP1, SMARCA4, and CDKN2A as major independent determinants of inferior clinical outcomes with KRASG12Ci monotherapy. Collectively, comutations in these three tumor suppressor genes segregated patients into distinct prognostic subgroups and captured ∼50% of those with early disease progression (progression-free survival ≤3 months) with KRASG12Ci. Pathway-level integration of less prevalent coalterations in functionally related genes nominated PI3K/AKT/MTOR pathway and additional baseline RAS gene alterations, including amplifications, as candidate drivers of inferior outcomes with KRASG12Ci, and revealed a possible association between defective DNA damage response/repair and improved KRASG12Ci efficacy. Our findings propose a framework for patient stratification and clinical outcome prediction in KRASG12C-mutant NSCLC that can inform rational selection and appropriate tailoring of emerging combination therapies. SIGNIFICANCE In this work, we identify co-occurring genomic alterations in KEAP1, SMARCA4, and CDKN2A as independent determinants of poor clinical outcomes with KRASG12Ci monotherapy in advanced NSCLC, and we propose a framework for patient stratification and treatment personalization based on the comutational status of individual tumors.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Severe pulmonary hemorrhage can occur in patients treated with thoracic stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) and vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors (VEGFis). There is limited understanding of which patients are at risk for toxicity with the combination of thoracic SABR and VEGFis or how the risk differs over either therapy alone. METHODS We evaluated a prospectively maintained cohort of 690 patients with 818 pulmonary tumors treated with highly conformal SABR. Rates of any-grade and grade 3 plus (G3+) pulmonary hemorrhage were compared between patients treated with or without VEGFi therapy across tumor locations. Outcomes were compared between patients treated with SABR plus VEGFi and a propensity-matched cohort of those treated with VEGFi therapy alone. RESULTS Treatment with VEGFi plus SABR was associated with higher rates of G3+ pulmonary hemorrhage compared with those treated with SABR alone for the overall cohort (3-y incidence: 7.9% versus 0.6%, p < 0.01) and those with central tumors (19.1% versus 3.3%, p = 0.04). When further subdivided, there were significantly higher toxicity rates with VEGFi for the ultracentral (9.0% versus 45.0%, p = 0.044), but not central nonabutting tumors (0.0% versus 1.3%, p = 0.69). There was an increased incidence of G3+ hemorrhage in patients treated with VEGFi plus SABR compared with VEGFi alone (9.6% versus 1.3%, p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS The combination of VEGFi and SABR was associated with an increased risk of high-grade pulmonary hemorrhage over either therapy alone. Low rates of toxicity were observed when excluding patients with SABR to ultracentral tumors and applying highly conformal SABR techniques.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Only around 20-30% of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NCSLC) have durable benefit from immune-checkpoint inhibitors. Although tissue-based biomarkers (eg, PD-L1) are limited by suboptimal performance, tissue availability, and tumour heterogeneity, radiographic images might holistically capture the underlying cancer biology. We aimed to investigate the application of deep learning on chest CT scans to derive an imaging signature of response to immune checkpoint inhibitors and evaluate its added value in the clinical context. METHODS In this retrospective modelling study, 976 patients with metastatic, EGFR/ALK negative NSCLC treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors at MD Anderson and Stanford were enrolled from Jan 1, 2014, to Feb 29, 2020. We built and tested an ensemble deep learning model on pretreatment CTs (Deep-CT) to predict overall survival and progression-free survival after treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors. We also evaluated the added predictive value of the Deep-CT model in the context of existing clinicopathological and radiological metrics. FINDINGS Our Deep-CT model demonstrated robust stratification of patient survival of the MD Anderson testing set, which was validated in the external Stanford set. The performance of the Deep-CT model remained significant on subgroup analyses stratified by PD-L1, histology, age, sex, and race. In univariate analysis, Deep-CT outperformed the conventional risk factors, including histology, smoking status, and PD-L1 expression, and remained an independent predictor after multivariate adjustment. Integrating the Deep-CT model with conventional risk factors demonstrated significantly improved prediction performance, with overall survival C-index increases from 0·70 (clinical model) to 0·75 (composite model) during testing. On the other hand, the deep learning risk scores correlated with some radiomics features, but radiomics alone could not reach the performance level of deep learning, indicating that the deep learning model effectively captured additional imaging patterns beyond known radiomics features. INTERPRETATION This proof-of-concept study shows that automated profiling of radiographic scans through deep learning can provide orthogonal information independent of existing clinicopathological biomarkers, bringing the goal of precision immunotherapy for patients with NSCLC closer.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Irreversible allosteric KRAS p.G12C inhibitors (KG12Ci) such as sotorasib and adagrasib have revolutionized the therapeutic landscape of advanced KG12C-mutant NSCLC, however individual responses are heterogeneous and curtailed by innate and adaptive/acquired resistance. Molecular determinants of KG12Ci efficacy in NSCLC are poorly defined. We dissected the impact of major KG12C co-mutations and explored the effects of less prevalent co-alterations on the clinical activity of KG12Ci in the largest treated cohort to date of patients (pts) with advanced NSCLC. Key findings were validated in preclinical KG12C NSCLC models.
Methods: Baseline clinico-genomic features and clinical outcome data from pts with stage IV KG12C NSCLC (ECOG PS 0-2) treated with single-agent KG12Ci were collected retrospectively from 20 centers in the US and Europe. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate PFS and OS and differences were assessed with the log-rank test. Hazard ratios (HR) and their 95% CI were estimated using a Cox proportional hazards model stratified for clinical co-variates. The impact of selected co-alterations on sotorasib efficacy was assessed in syngeneic (C57BL/6) KG12C NSCLC models.
Results: 411 eligible pts were included in the study. Median age was 68 years, 77% of pts had received both platinum-based chemotherapy and PD-(L)1 inhibitors and 35% had brain metastases. 83% of pts received sotorasib. ORR with KG12Ci was 32.4% (95% CI, 27.9-37.1), PFS was 5.1m (95% CI, 4.5-5.6) and OS was 10.2m (95% CI, 8.4-12.1). Co-alterations in KEAP1, SMARCA4 and CDKN2A/B were each associated with significantly shorter PFS (KEAP1: 2.8m vs 5.5m, HR 2.50, P<0.001; SMARCA4: 1.7m vs 5.5m, HR 2.64, P=0.001; CDKN2A/B: 2.3m vs 5.3m, HR 2.57, P<0.001) and OS with KG12Ci even after adjustment for clinical covariates. STK11 co-mutations without concurrent KEAP1 alterations did not impact clinical outcomes with KG12Ci. In an exploratory analysis, co-mutations in DNA damage repair (DDR) genes and genes encoding components of the ATRX/DAXX/EZH2 pathway were associated with improved KG12Ci efficacy, whereas PI3K/AKT/MTOR/PTEN alterations and missense ROS1/ALK/BRAF/NTRK1-3 mutations resulted in inferior outcomes. The impact of SMARCA4 and DDR gene inactivation was validated in isogenic syngeneic KG12CNSCLC models; additional co-alterations are under evaluation. Integration of KEAP1/SMARCA4/CDKN2A/B co-mutations identified a subgroup (KSCMUT, 37.6% of all pts) with significantly shorter PFS (2.7m vs 6.2m, P<0.001) and OS (6.3m vs 14.6m, P<0.001) that accounted for 57.3% of pts with primary refractory (PFS≤3m) disease.
Conclusions: Co-mutations in KEAP1, SMARCA4 and CDKN2A/2B define subgroups of KG12C NSCLC pts with markedly distinct outcomes with KG12Ci monotherapy. Tailoring of KG12C inhibitor-anchored therapeutic strategies and patient stratification should take into account the co-mutation status of individual tumors.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women in the U.S. As survival in breast cancer has improved, one of the key clinical problems in breast cancer survivors is the increased risk of second cancers. Over half (55%) of breast cancer survivors die from second cancers, of which lung cancer (i.e., second primary lung cancer [SPLC]) is the most frequent type. While smoking and radiotherapy have been identified as the risk factors for SPLC among breast cancer survivors, other potential factors (e.g., comorbidity, and medication) have been underexamined. In addition, women in general have shown higher susceptibility to smoking-induced lung cancer than men, suggesting the potential involvement of hormonal factors; however, the effect of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) on lung cancer risk has been controversial and has never been examined among breast cancer survivors. We aimed to examine the factors associated with SPLC risk among breast cancer survivors, focusing on the effect of HRT and its interaction with smoking. We also explored the potential of tailored risk-based management of SPLC for breast cancer survivors. Methods: We identified 5,552 patients diagnosed with breast cancer in 1993-2014 from the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian Cancer (PLCO) Screening Trial. SPLC was defined as a newly diagnosed lung cancer after 6 months from the time of breast cancer diagnosis. We applied multivariable cause-specific Cox regression to identify new factors associated with SPLC risk, adjusting for multiple testing using the Bonferroni method (P<0.01). We developed a prediction model to predict a 5-year risk of SPLC among breast cancer survivors that included both ever- and never-smokers and evaluated the predictive accuracy vs. a well-established lung cancer risk model, PLCOm2012, that was developed for a cancer-free population who ever smoked. Results: Of 5,552 patients, 89 (1.6%) developed SPLC over 102,545 person-years. Several factors measured at baseline in PLCO were significantly associated with SPLC risk among breast cancer survivors, including liver comorbidity (Hazard Ratio [HR] 3.28; P<.001), prior history of other cancer (HR 2.02; P=0.01), and regular use of ibuprofen (HR 0.52; P=0.01). In addition, ever-use of HRT was associated with a 51% reduction in SPLC risk (HR 0.49; P=0.001). The effect of active smoking on SPLC risk vs non-active smoking (HR 7.09; P<.001) was validated in PLCO. Notably, the effect of active smoking was intensified among ever-HRT users (HR=10.5; P<.001) vs. never-HRT users (HR 4.1; P<.001), thus showing a significant interaction (Pinteraction=0.003). The prediction model for SPLC risk was validated through bootstrap and demonstrated higher discrimination (AUC 0.83) vs. the PLCOm2012 model (AUC 0.79). Conclusions: In a large prospective cohort of breast cancer survivors, smoking and HRT use showed a significant interaction on SPLC risk. The prediction model for SPLC could identify high-risk survivors for SPLC for tailored surveillance to improve the management of breast cancer survivors.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Real-world evidence (RWE) studies for surveillance patterns following lung cancer (LC) diagnosis can inform optimizing recommendations on surveillance and practice. One major obstacle in RWE studies for LC surveillance is the lack of radiologic imaging indication for surveillance vs. other reasons (e.g., symptoms). To enable RWE studies for surveillance to detect second primary lung cancer among LC survivors, we developed a hybrid modelling approach that integrates structured data from electronic health records (EHRs) with natural language processing (NLP) from radiology reports for abstracting computed tomography (CT) imaging indications in LC survivors. Methods: We manually reviewed and abstracted CT imaging indications, i.e., surveillance vs. others (e.g., symptoms and metastatic disease follow-up) to create a gold standard from 200 randomly selected radiology reports among 1,952 LC patients (i) who were diagnosed in 2000-2017 at Stanford Health Care (SHC) and (ii) survived ≧5 years after the diagnosis. We abstracted medically relevant key-phrases using the part-of-speech grammar and PageRank algorithms. Hierarchical clustering identified context-specific key-phrase clusters as follows: “surveillance”, “stable”, “nodule”, “symptom”, and “metastasis”. The text-based radiology reports were vectorized to generate NLP features using phrase occurrence frequencies. The structured variables from EHRs included: (i) diagnosis of lung diseases or chest symptoms in previous 6 months, (ii) ordering provider-type (oncology vs. others [e.g. emergency and internal medicine]), and (iii) time from previous CT (≧6 months). A hybrid model was then fitted using logistic regression including both structured and NLP features and validated using a 10-fold cross-validation. The model’s performance was compared to those solely based on NLP or structured data. Results: The dataset of 200 radiology reports included 141 LC survivors (49% White, 72% adenocarcinoma). The proposed hybrid model showed high discrimination (AUC: 0.92), outperforming those based solely on NLP (AUC: 0.88) or structured data (AUC: 0.87). The proposed model demonstrated higher sensitivity (SN: 0.73) and specificity (SP: 0.96) versus those solely based on NLP (SN: 0.53; SP: 0.96) or structured data (SN: 0.53; SP: 0.90). The hybrid model showed that the following variables were positively associated with a higher likelihood that the given CT imaging indication is “surveillance”: (i) a longer time interval (≧6 months) from the previous CT (odds ratio [OR]: 4.63; p=0.01) and key-phrases of (ii) “nodule” (OR: 1.55; p=0.004) and (iii) “stable” (OR: 1.37; p=0.03). On the other hand, the following were negatively associated with the likelihood of surveillance: the key-phrases of “symptom” (OR: 0.17; p=0.02) and “metastasis” (OR: 0.26; p=0.02). Conclusion: A hybrid modeling approach combining text-based NLP and structured EHRs has the potential for abstracting CT imaging indications for LC surveillance. Future directions include validation using other EHR systems and extension using larger data.

Abstract
Objective The 2-year incidence of brain metastases (BrMs) in stage III non-small lung cell cancer (NSCLC) has been estimated to be around 30%. However, recent clinical trials have demonstrated considerably lower BrMs rates in this patient population. In this study, we aimed to review the real-world incidence, surveillance, and treatment patterns of BrMs in stage III NSCLC. Materials and methods Using a retrospective single-center study design, we identified patients with stage III NSCLC who received radiation with curative intent over a 10-year period. Outcome variables included BrMs incidence, overall survival (OS), and survival from date of BrMs. Additionally, we assessed patterns of BrMs surveillance in stage III NSCLC and treatment. Results We identified a total of 279 stage III NSCLC patients, of which 160 with adequate records were included in the final analyses [adenocarcinoma (n = 96), squamous cell carcinoma (n = 53), other histology subtype (n = 11)]. The median OS for the entire cohort was 41 months (95% CI, 28-53), while the median time from BrMs to death was 19 months (95% CI, 9-21). Twenty-three patients (14.4%) received planned surveillance brain MRIs at 6, 12, and 24 months after completion of treatment. The remaining 137 patients (85.6%) received brain MRIs at systemic recurrence (restaging) or when neurologically symptomatic. A total of 37 patients (23%) developed BrMs, with a 2-year cumulative BrMs incidence of 17% (95% CI, 11-23). A higher incidence of BrMs was identified in patients with adenocarcinoma relative to those with squamous cell carcinoma (p < 0.01). Similarly, a higher 2-year BrMs incidence was observed in patients who received planned surveillance brain MRI relative to those who did not, although statistical significance was not reached. Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) treated 29 of BrMs patients (78.4%) and was preferred over WBRT, which treated only 3 patients (8.1%). Conclusions At our center, BrMs incidence in stage III NSCLC patients was lower than historically reported but notably higher than the incidence described in recent clinical trials. Routine BrMs surveillance potentially allows earlier detection of asymptomatic BrMs. However, asymptomatic BrMs were mostly detected on restaging MRI at the time of recurrence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are monoclonal antibodies used to activate the immune system against tumor cells. Despite therapeutic benefits, ICIs have the potential to cause immune-related adverse events such as myocarditis, a rare but serious side effect with up to 50% mortality in affected patients. Histologically, patients with ICI myocarditis have lymphocytic infiltrates in the heart, implicating T cell-mediated mechanisms. However, the precise pathological immune subsets and molecular changes in ICI myocarditis are unknown. METHODS To identify immune subset(s) associated with ICI myocarditis, we performed time-of-flight mass cytometry on peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 52 individuals: 29 patients with autoimmune adverse events (immune-related adverse events) on ICI, including 8 patients with ICI myocarditis, and 23 healthy control subjects. We also used multiomics single-cell technology to immunophenotype 30 patients/control subjects using single-cell RNA sequencing, single-cell T-cell receptor sequencing, and cellular indexing of transcriptomes and epitopes by sequencing with feature barcoding for surface marker expression confirmation. To correlate between the blood and the heart, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing/T-cell receptor sequencing/cellular indexing of transcriptomes and epitopes by sequencing on MRL/Pdcd1-/- (Murphy Roths large/programmed death-1-deficient) mice with spontaneous myocarditis. RESULTS Using these complementary approaches, we found an expansion of cytotoxic CD8+ T effector cells re-expressing CD45RA (Temra CD8+ cells) in patients with ICI myocarditis compared with control subjects. T-cell receptor sequencing demonstrated that these CD8+ Temra cells were clonally expanded in patients with myocarditis compared with control subjects. Transcriptomic analysis of these Temra CD8+ clones confirmed a highly activated and cytotoxic phenotype. Longitudinal study demonstrated progression of these Temra CD8+ cells into an exhausted phenotype 2 months after treatment with glucocorticoids. Differential expression analysis demonstrated elevated expression levels of proinflammatory chemokines (CCL5/CCL4/CCL4L2) in the clonally expanded Temra CD8+ cells, and ligand receptor analysis demonstrated their interactions with innate immune cells, including monocytes/macrophages, dendritic cells, and neutrophils, as well as the absence of key anti-inflammatory signals. To complement the human study, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing/T-cell receptor sequencing/cellular indexing of transcriptomes and epitopes by sequencing in Pdcd1-/- mice with spontaneous myocarditis and found analogous expansions of cytotoxic clonal effector CD8+ cells in both blood and hearts of such mice compared with controls. CONCLUSIONS Clonal cytotoxic Temra CD8+ cells are significantly increased in the blood of patients with ICI myocarditis, corresponding to an analogous increase in effector cytotoxic CD8+ cells in the blood/hearts of Pdcd1-/- mice with myocarditis. These expanded effector CD8+ cells have unique transcriptional changes, including upregulation of chemokines CCL5/CCL4/CCL4L2, which may serve as attractive diagnostic/therapeutic targets for reducing life-threatening cardiac immune-related adverse events in ICI-treated patients with cancer.

Abstract
Background: Various molecular underpinnings of lung cancer have been noted in Asian populations, especially with targetable oncogenic drivers such as EGFR mutations and ALK rearrangements, although they have been lesser described in South Asian/Indian patients Methods: Tumour molecular testing results from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with a name of South Asian origin and diagnosed from 2005 to 2019 at the Stanford Cancer Center in the United States were retrospectively reviewed and compared to the results of molecular testing from PGIMER in Chandigarh, India, from the patients diagnosed from 2011 to 2019 Results: We identified 72 patients of South Asian (largely Indian) origin, of whom 64 patients (51% female) had mutational testing at Stanford. Of the tested patients, 33% of cases harboured either an EGFR exon 19 deletion or exon 21 L858R mutation, and 12.5% had ALK rearrangements. At PGIMER, a larger sample of 1,264 patients was identified (33% female), with 22.5% of patients having two main EGFR activating mutations, and 9.5% harbouring an ALK rearrangement Conclusions: South Asian, largely Indian, patients with NSCLC appear to have a higher chance of harbouring EGFR mutations and ALK translocation as compared to Caucasians. The percentage of South Asian patients with these molecular abnormalities was largely similar in two different geographical locations. These findings corroborate prior single-institution findings and emphasise the importance of molecular testing.

Abstract
PURPOSE Central nervous system metastases are a prominent cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with ALK-positive (ALK+) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The phase II ASCEND-7 (NCT02336451) study was specifically designed to assess the efficacy and safety of the ALK inhibitor (ALKi) ceritinib in patients with ALK+ NSCLC metastatic to the brain and/or leptomeninges. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with active brain metastases were allocated to study arms 1 to 4 based on prior exposure to an ALKi and/or prior brain radiation (arm 1: prior radiotherapy/ALKi-pretreated; arm 2: no radiotherapy/ALKi-pretreated; arm 3: prior radiotherapy/ALKi-naïve; arm 4: no radiotherapy/ALKi-naïve). Arm 5 included patients with leptomeningeal carcinomatosis. Patients received ceritinib 750 mg once daily (fasted condition). Primary endpoint was investigator-assessed whole-body overall response rate (ORR) per RECIST v1.1. Secondary endpoints included disease control rate (DCR) and intracranial/extracranial responses. RESULTS Per investigator assessment, in arms 1 (n = 42), 2 (n = 40), 3 (n = 12), and 4 (n = 44), respectively: whole-body ORRs [95% confidence interval (CI)] were 35.7% (21.6-52.0), 30.0% (16.6-46.5), 50.0% (21.1-78.9), and 59.1% (43.2-73.7); whole-body DCR (95% CI): 66.7% (50.5-80.4), 82.5% (67.2-92.7), 66.7% (34.9-90.1), and 70.5% (54.8-83.2); intracranial ORRs (95% CI): 39.3% (21.5-59.4), 27.6% (12.7-47.2), 28.6% (3.7-71.0), and 51.5% (33.5-69.2). In arm 5 (n = 18), whole-body ORR was 16.7% (95% CI, 3.6-41.4) and DCR was 66.7% (95% CI, 41.0-86.7). Paired cerebrospinal fluid and plasma sampling revealed that ceritinib penetrated the human blood-brain barrier. CONCLUSIONS Ceritinib showed antitumor activity in patients with ALK+ NSCLC with active brain metastases and/or leptomeningeal disease, and could be considered in the management of intracranial disease.

Abstract
Introduction This multicenter review evaluated the efficacy and safety of osimertinib dose escalation for central nervous system (CNS) progression developing on osimertinib 80 mg in EGFR-mutant NSCLC. Methods Retrospective review identified 105 patients from eight institutions with advanced EGFR-mutant NSCLC treated with osimertinib 160 mg daily between October 2013 and January 2020. Radiographic responses were clinically assessed, and Kaplan-Meier analyses were used. We defined CNS disease control as the interval from osimertinib 160 mg initiation to CNS progression or discontinuation of osimertinib 160 mg. Results Among 105 patients treated with osimertinib 160 mg, 69 were escalated for CNS progression, including 24 treated with dose escalation alone (cohort A), 34 who received dose-escalated osimertinib plus concurrent chemotherapy and/or radiation (cohort B), and 11 who received osimertinib 160 mg without any prior 80 mg exposure. The median duration of CNS control was 3.8 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.7-5.8) in cohort A, 5.1 months (95% CI, 3.1-6.5) in cohort B, and 4.2 months (95% CI 1.6-not reached) in cohort C. Across all cohorts, the median duration of CNS control was 6.0 months (95% CI, 5.1-9.0) in isolated leptomeningeal progression (n = 27) and 3.3 months (95% CI, 1.0-3.1) among those with parenchymal-only metastases (n = 23). Patients on osimertinib 160 mg experienced no severe or unexpected side effects. Conclusion Among patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC experiencing CNS progression on osimertinib 80 mg daily, dose escalation to 160 mg provided modest benefit with CNS control lasting approximately 3 to 6 months and seemed more effective in patients with isolated leptomeningeal CNS progression.

Abstract
8587 Background: Thymic epithelial tumors (TETs), including thymic carcinomas and thymomas, are rare neoplasms arising in the mediastinum. Chemotherapy is still the mainstay of treatment and few therapeutic options are available for patients with advanced or metastatic TETs. Due to their rarity, the sample size in the previous reports about the genomic profiles of TETs was small and the results varied from study to study, which hinders the development of treatment. Herein, we investigated the comprehensive genomic characteristics of TETs evaluated in a large genomic database profiled in a real-world setting. Methods: Tissue biopsy-based comprehensive genomic profiling was performed in the course of routine clinical care. We included data from two different cohorts: Foundation Medicine Inc. (FMI) in the US (Frampton GM, et al. Nat Biotechnol 2013) and the Center for Cancer Genomics and Advanced Therapeutics (C-CAT) in Japan, which is engaged in a national project for collecting genomic analysis and clinical results from patients. Samples profiled at Foundation Medicine were examined for all classes of alterations in 253 genes targeted across all assays. Tumor mutational burden (TMB) and microsatellite instability (MSI) were calculated as previously described (Chalmers ZR, et al. Genome Med 2017. Trabucco, et al. J Mol Diagn 2019). Patients’ background including histology, age, and sex were also investigated, and genetic alteration, TMB, and MSI were stratified by them. Results: A total of 794 patients were collected for our study, including 722 cases from FMI and 72 cases from C-CAT. In the FMI data, 414 cases of thymic carcinoma and 308 cases of thymoma were included. CDKN2A (39.9%), TP53 (30.2%) and CDKN2B (24.6%) were frequently altered in thymic carcinoma, versus TP53 (7.8%), DNMT3A (6.8%), CDKN2A (5.8%) and CDKN2B (4.6%) in thymoma. TMB-High (≥ 10muts/Mb) and MSI-High were present in 7.0% and 2.3% of thymic carcinomas, and 1.6% and 0.3% of thymomas, respectively. Comparison of the thymic carcinoma cohort based on age < 60 vs 60+ years found a significant difference in prevalence of NFKBIA alterations (2.7% age < 60 vs 11.7% age ≥ 60, p = 0.034), while a similar comparison of the thymoma cohort found no significant differences between age groups. An analysis based on sex did not find any significant differences between groups. 55 cases of thymic carcinoma and 17 cases of thymoma were included from C-CAT data. In thymic carcinoma, CDKN2A (27.3%), TP53 (23.6%) and CDKN2B (20.0%) were also frequently altered, while alterations of TSC1 (23.5%) and CD22, LTK, NOTCH1, KMT2A, SETD2, ATM (17.6% each) were found in thymoma. Conclusions: To the best of our knowledge, this is the largest cohort in which genomic alterations, TMB, and MSI status of TETs were investigated. We suggest that several gene mutations, TMB, and MSI status might be potential targets for treatment and lead to therapeutic development opportunities, especially in thymic carcinoma.

Abstract
9014 Background: Osimertinib (Osi) is standard of care in 1st line (1L) EGFR mut NSCLC and TKI resistant T790Mpos NSCLC but acquired resistance emerges; outcomes are less robust in T790Mneg, C797Xpos and EGFR exon 20 insertion (ex20ins) disease. We examined Osi with the EGFR monoclonal antibody Necitumumab (Neci) in select settings of EGFR TKI resistance. Methods: Pts were accrued to 5 expansion cohorts (ExC) at recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of Osi 80 mg daily and Neci 800 mg D1 + D8 of q21d cycle. ExC (18 pts/cohort): A) T790Mneg progressive disease (PD) on 1st/2nd gen TKI as last therapy, B) T790Mneg PD on 1st/2nd gen TKI and PD on 3rd gen TKI, C) T790Mpos PD on 1st/2nd gen TKI and PD on 3rd gen TKI, D) EGFR ex20ins PD on chemotherapy, E) PD on 1L osi. In ExC A-C, T790M was confirmed centrally (tissue) by ddPCR. Additional correlative studies include: tissue NGS (> 400 gene panel), EGFR FISH, plasma for PK and serial EGFR ctDNA by ddPCR. Adverse events were graded (Gr) by CTCAEv5; ORR, PFS by RECIST 1.1. Primary pre-specified efficacy endpoint ≥3/18 pts responding per cohort. Results: 101 patients accrued (100 evaluable). Efficacy is summarized in the Table. Drug related Gr 3 AEs were seen in 38% of pts, mainly rash (21%). ORR among all pts was 19% (95% CI 12-28%) that varied across cohorts (Table). In ExC A-C, 69% pts had detectable EGFR activating mutations in ctDNA, with decline in mutant allele frequency (AF) on treatment in 80% and ctDNA clearance in 33%. Conclusions: Osi/Neci is feasible and tolerable at the RP2D. EGFR ctDNA was detectable at baseline in the majority of pts with decrease in AF on treatment. Osi/Neci was active in select settings of EGFR-TKI resistance, meeting its prespecified efficacy endpoint in T790Mneg PD on 1st/2nd gen TKI as last therapy (ExC A), EGFR ex20ins post-chemo (ExC D) and PD on 1L osimertinib (ExC E). mPFS in the EGFR ex20ins cohort was within the range of current EGFR Exon 20 ins agents in development. EGFR monoclonal antibodies with osimertinib warrant further study in settings of de novo and acquired EGFR dependent resistance to EGFR-TKI. Clinical trial information: NCT02496663. [Table: see text]

Abstract
9125 Background: Racial differences in morbidity and mortality of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have been demonstrated and some genomic alterations (e.g. EGFR) in NSCLC are known to differ according to race. However, studies have been limited in sample size and hence, limited in their capacity to detect discrepancies in less frequently altered genes. Here, we investigated alteration prevalence in a large real-world NSCLC cohort, stratified by genetic ancestry. Methods: 75,362 NSCLC patients from the United States, were profiled with comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) of tissue biopsy, as part of routine clinical care (Foundation Medicine Inc., FMI; Frampton GM, et al. Nat Biotechnol 2013). 296 genes targeted across all assays were examined for known/likely pathogenic alterations of all classes. Predominant genetic ancestry was inferred using a SNP-based approach (Newberg J, et al. AACR 2019), and patients were categorized into European (EUR), African (AFR), East Asian (EAS), Admixed American (AMR), and South Asian (SAS) ancestry groups. Patients were additionally stratified by histological type, age (≥40/ < 40), and sex. The prevalence of high tumor mutational burden (TMB-High), defined as ≥ 10 mutations/mb (Chalmers ZR, et al. Genome Med 2017), and microsatellite instability status (Trabucco, et al. J Mol Diagn 2019) was also calculated. Results: In this NSCLC cohort, ancestry was split 82.2% for EUR, 10.0% for AFR, 4.4% for EAS, 2.7% for AMR, and 0.8% for SAS. 50.4% were female (n = 37,972) and 49.6% male (n = 37,360). The most prevalent alterations in the overall cohort included TP53 (67.5%), KRAS (30.6%), CDKN2A (29.2%), CDKN2B (17.2%), STK11 (16.1%), and EGFR (15.3%). The prevalence of TMB-High status in the overall cohort was 34.6%. Stratified by ancestry, the prevalence of EGFR alterations was significantly enriched in EAS vs. other ancestry groups ( p < 0.001). KRAS and STK11 were enriched in EUR and AFR vs. other groups ( p < 0.001). TMB-High status was significantly enriched in AFR vs. all other groups ( p < 0.001). In EAS and SAS, TMB-High was typically reduced vs. other ancestry groups (TMB-High AFR 41.6%, AMR 20.1%, EAS 14.1%, EUR 35.5%, SAS 11.7%). A similar analysis based on sex revealed differences in prevalence of 80 gene alterations and TMB-High with sex-specific enrichments (e.g., EGFR 19.0% female vs. 11.5% male; KRAS 34.6% vs. 26.6%). With respect to age, the prevalence of 41 gene alterations and TMB-High were significantly different between samples from patients age < 40 and age ≥ 40 (e.g., ALK 21.1% age < 40 vs. 2.7% age ≥ 40; KRAS 13.0% vs. 30.8%; TMB-High 14.4% vs. 34.8%). Conclusions: Comprehensive analysis of this real-world dataset, which includes the largest NSCLC patient cohort, revealed ancestry-associated differences in genomic alterations in NSCLC. Age and sex were also associated with differences in genomic alteration and TMB-High prevalence.

Abstract
8586 Background: Blockade of CD47, an immunoglobulin overexpressed on solid tumor cells that inhibits macrophage phagocytosis, is a promising anti-cancer immunotherapy which has not yet been explored in thymic epithelial tumors (TETs). TETs, including thymomas and thymic carcinomas, are rare tumors with limited immunotherapy treatment options due to the high rates of immune-related adverse effects observed with PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitors. This study aimed to examine CD47 protein expression in TETs. Methods: A clinically annotated tissue microarray of 67 TETs consisting of 64 thymomas and 3 thymic carcinomas, as well as 14 thymic controls were included. Each sample with an average of 3 cores was stained for CD47 epithelial expression (rabbit monoclonal antibody SP279, Abcam, USA). Samples were scored for intensity as follows: 0 = none, 1 = weak, 2 = moderate, and 3 = strong. An H-score, defined as intensity x percentage of tumor involved, was also assigned and ranged from 0 to 300. Samples with an intensity score of < 2 or an H-score of < 150 were categorized as CD47low, while the rest as CD47high. Multivariate linear regression analysis accounted for WHO subtype, stage, resection status and presence of paraneoplastic syndrome (Prism 9, Graphpad). Results: Compared to normal thymic tissue, TETs were more frequently CD47 positive and had significantly higher levels of CD47 expression. CD47 was present in 91% of TETs, compared to 64.3% of normal thymus. Importantly, the level of expression was significantly higher in TETs by 16-fold (mean H-score 75.0 vs 4.6, p = 0.003). Among tumors, univariate analyses showed that higher CD47 expression was correlated with a lower stage (p = 0.032) and more complete resection (p = 0.058). A multivariate analysis accounting for these factors showed that CD47 expression by both H-score and intensity were each highly correlated with WHO histology subtype (p = 0.0005; p = 0.0017 respectively) with lower grade subtypes more frequently found in CD47high tumors. The most frequent subtype in CD47high, when compared to CD47low tumors, was AB (61.5% vs 13.7%) and the least frequent was B2 (0% vs 37.3%). Tumors with the highest grade (subtype C, thymic carcinomas) were exclusively CD47low. CD47high tumors were associated with an increased incidence of paraneoplastic syndromes (52.4% vs 12.0%, p = 0.0014). Conclusions: CD47 expression was found in the vast majority of TETs, and in significantly higher levels than normal thymic tissue. Among tumors, those with higher CD47 expression tended to have lower grade and stage, as well as higher frequency of paraneoplastic syndromes. This study is the first to examine CD47 expression in TETs. Given the prevalent expression of CD47 found in TETs and current available CD47 targeted agents, this study lends support for further investigation of this novel therapeutic approach.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung cancer survivors have a high risk of developing second primary lung cancer (SPLC), but little is known about the survival impact of SPLC diagnosis. METHODS We analyzed data from 138 969 patients in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER), who were surgically treated for initial primary lung cancer (IPLC) in 1988-2013. Each patient was followed from the date of IPLC diagnosis to SPLC diagnosis (for those with SPLC) and last vital status through 2016. We performed multivariable Cox regression to evaluate the association between overall survival and SPLC diagnosis as a time-varying predictor. To investigate potential effect modification, we tested interaction between SPLC and IPLC stage. Using data from the Multiethnic Cohort Study (MEC) (n = 1540 IPLC patients with surgery), we evaluated the survival impact of SPLC by smoking status. All statistical tests were 2-sided. RESULTS A total of 12 115 (8.7%) patients developed SPLC in SEER over 700 421 person-years of follow-up. Compared with patients with single primary lung cancer, those with SPLC had statistically significantly reduced overall survival (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.12, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.06 to 2.17; P < .001). The effect of SPLC on reduced survival was more pronounced among patients with early stage IPLC vs advanced-stage IPLC (HR = 2.14, 95% CI = 2.08 to 2.20, vs HR = 1.43, 95% CI = 1.21 to 1.70, respectively; Pinteraction < .001). Analysis using MEC data showed that the effect of SPLC on reduced survival was statistically significantly larger among persons who actively smoked at initial diagnosis vs those who formerly or never smoked (HR = 2.31, 95% CI = 1.48 to 3.61, vs HR = 1.41, 95% CI = 0.98 to 2.03, respectively; Pinteraction = .04). CONCLUSIONS SPLC diagnosis is statistically significantly associated with decreased survival in SEER and MEC. Intensive surveillance targeting patients with early stage IPLC and active smoking at IPLC diagnosis may lead to a larger survival benefit.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In classical EGFR mutant non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy yields better outcomes than platinum-based chemotherapy. However, EGFR exon 20 insertion (ex20ins) NSCLC is relatively resistant to currently available EGFR TKIs. Though platinum-based chemotherapy is the frontline standard of care for EGFR ex20ins NSCLC, its efficacy is not fully described. STUDY DESIGN A retrospective, single-center, case series METHODS: Patients were identified through an electronic research database at a single institution and included if they had advanced EGFR ex20ins NSCLC, received platinum-based chemotherapy for metastatic disease, and had scans evaluable for response. Each patient's demographics, tumor characteristics, and clinical course were recorded. Treatment response was evaluated using RECIST v1.1 criteria, and the PFS was calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS Among 27 patients identified with EGFR ex20ins NSCLC at our institution, 18 (67%) received platinum-based chemotherapy for metastatic disease and had scans evaluable for response. These patients received platinum-based chemotherapy in the first-line (N = 17, 94%) and second-line settings (N = 1, 6%). The objective response rate (ORR) to platinum-based chemotherapy was 39% (7 of 18 patients; 95% confidence interval [CI] 16-61). The median PFS with platinum-based chemotherapy was 7.1 months (95% CI, 6.3 -13.7), and the median overall survival was 3.2 years (95% CI, 1.92 - NR). CONCLUSIONS The efficacy of platinum-based chemotherapy in EGFR ex20ins NSCLC is similar to that expected for TKI sensitive EGFR mutant NSCLC. Novel agents designed to specifically target ex20ins mutant EGFR should additionally improve outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To evaluate the effects of the global coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic on lung cancer trials, we surveyed investigators and collected aggregate enrollment data for lung cancer trials across the world before and during the pandemic. METHODS A Data Collection Survey collected aggregate monthly enrollment numbers from 294 global lung cancer trials for 2019 to 2020. A 64-question Action Survey evaluated the impact of COVID-19 on clinical trials and identified mitigation strategies implemented. RESULTS Clinical trial enrollment declined from 2019 to 2020 by 14% globally. Most reductions in enrollment occurred in April to June where we found significant decreases in individual site enrollment (p = 0.0309). Enrollment was not significantly different in October 2019 to December of 2019 versus 2020 (p = 0.25). The most frequent challenges identified by the Action Survey (N = 172) were fewer eligible patients (63%), decrease in protocol compliance (56%), and suspension of trials (54%). Patient-specific challenges included access to trial site (49%), ability to travel (54%), and willingness to visit the site (59%). The most frequent mitigation strategies included modified monitoring requirements (47%), telehealth visits (45%), modified required visits (25%), mail-order medications (25%), and laboratory (27%) and radiology (21%) tests at nonstudy facilities. Sites that felt the most effective mitigation strategies were telehealth visits (85%), remote patient-reported symptom collection (85%), off-site procedures (85%), and remote consenting (89%). CONCLUSIONS The COVID-19 pandemic created many challenges for lung cancer clinical trials conduct and enrollment. Mitigation strategies were used and, although the pandemic worsened, trial enrollment improved. A more flexible approach may improve enrollment and access to clinical trials, even beyond the pandemic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although lung cancer incidence rates according to smoking status, sex, and detailed race/ethnicity have not been available, it is estimated that more than half of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) females with lung cancer have never smoked. METHODS We calculated age-adjusted incidence rates for lung cancer according to smoking status and detailed race/ethnicity among females, focusing on AANHPI ethnic groups, and assessed relative incidence across racial/ethnic groups. We used a large-scale dataset that integrates data from electronic health records from 2 large health-care systems-Sutter Health in Northern California and Kaiser Permanente Hawai'i-linked to state cancer registries for incident lung cancer diagnoses between 2000 and 2013. The study population included 1 222 694 females (n = 244 147 AANHPI), 3297 of which were diagnosed with lung cancer (n = 535 AANHPI). RESULTS Incidence of lung cancer among never-smoking AANHPI as an aggregate group was 17.1 per 100 000 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 14.9 to 19.4) but varied widely across ethnic groups. Never-smoking Chinese American females had the highest rate (22.8 per 100 000, 95% CI = 17.3 to 29.1). Except for Japanese American females, incidence among every never-smoking AANHPI female ethnic group was higher than that of never-smoking non-Hispanic White females, from 66% greater among Native Hawaiian females (incidence rate ratio = 1.66, 95% CI = 1.03 to 2.56) to more than 100% greater among Chinese American females (incidence rate ratio = 2.26, 95% CI = 1.67 to 3.02). CONCLUSIONS Our study revealed high rates of lung cancer among most never-smoking AANHPI female ethnic groups. Our approach illustrates the use of innovative data integration to dispel the myth that AANHPI females are at overall reduced risk of lung cancer and demonstrates the need to disaggregate this highly diverse population.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the U.S. Despite recent survival improvements, racial and socioeconomic disparities still exist in lung cancer incidence and survival. Furthermore, recent studies showed that lung cancer survivors have a high risk of developing second primary lung cancer (SPLC). While racial and socioeconomic disparities have long been examined for lung cancer survival and incidence, little is known about their impacts on SPLC risk among lung cancer survivors. This study evaluated the disparities in SPLC incidence by calculating the standardized incidence ratio (SIR) of the observed SPLC incidence versus the expected incidence of initial primary lung cancer (IPLC) across different socioeconomic, acculturation, and smoking-related factors using county-level data obtained from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program (SEER). Methods: We identified 158,018 patients diagnosed with IPLC between 2000 and 2013 in SEER. SPLC was defined as a newly developed primary lung cancer after 2 years from IPLC diagnosis and was followed through 2018. The SIR was calculated as the ratio of the observed SPLC incidence versus the expected incidence of IPLC in the general population across different factors. Indicators of socioeconomic status, acculturation factors, and smoking prevalence in SEER were derived from county-level data using the American Community Survey and the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS). The quintiles of these indicators were created using the data obtained across all 3,142 valid U.S. counties. We applied the Pearson's chi-squared test to evaluate the difference in SIRs across quintiles of the indicators we created, applying a statistical significance of α < 0.005 after adjusting for multiple testing. Results: Among 158,018 IPLC patients, 10,650 (6.7%) developed SPLC over 626,853 person-years. The incidence of SPLC was 6 times higher than the IPLC incidence in the general population, with an overall SIR of 6.2 (95% Confidence Interval (CI): 6.09-6.32). Notably, the SIR, i.e., the ratio between the SPLC incidence and the IPLC incidence, was significantly higher among individuals who live in counties with the lowest quintile of median family income (<$51,770) versus the highest quintile (>$74,331) (SIR 7.18 versus 6.10, P<1 × 10−6). Furthermore, the ratio between the SPLC versus the IPLC incidence was highest (SIR 8.01, CI: 7.36-8.71) among those who live in counties with the highest quintile of smoking prevalence (>29.6%) versus SIR of 5.77 (CI: 5.63-5.91) with the lowest quintile of smoking prevalence (<20.4%) (P=3.4 × 10−3). Race/ethnicity and acculturation factors, including immigration status, did not achieve statistical significance. Discussion: Significant disparities exist in SPLC incidence among lung cancer survivors who live in areas with a low median family income and high smoking prevalence. Targeted SPLC surveillance for lung cancer survivors from an underserved population would be needed to reduce the existing disparities.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: For Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) females, lung cancer is one of the most common cancers and the leading cause of cancer death. More than half of lung cancers among AANHPI females occur among never-smokers, but incidence rates of lung cancer according to smoking status have not been available. Purpose: With a large, integrated dataset of electronic health record data from two healthcare systems—Sutter Health in Northern California and Kaiser Permanente Hawai'i—linked to state cancer registry data on incident lung cancer diagnoses 2000-2013, we describe incidence of lung cancer according to smoking status among females across detailed race and ethnicity. Methods: We calculated age-adjusted incidence rates for lung cancer according to smoking status and detailed race and ethnicity among females, focusing on AANHPI ethnic groups, and assessed relative incidence across racial and ethnic groups. The study population included N=1,222,694 females (n=244,147 AANHPI), n=3,297 (n=535) of whom were diagnosed with lung cancer. We examined relative incidence across group defined by detailed race and ethnicity. We also provided incidence of lung cancer among AANHPI males who never smoked in a supplement. Results: Among AANHPI female groups, proportions of lung cancers among never-smokers ranged from 25% among Native Hawaiian to 80% among Chinese females. Incidence of lung cancer among never-smoking AANHPI females as an aggregate was 17.1 per 100,000 (95% CI: 14.9, 19.4), but rates varied widely across ethnic groups. Never-smoking Chinese females had the highest rate (22.8; 95% CI: 17.3, 29.1). Except for Japanese females, incidence among every never-smoking AANHPI female ethnic group was higher than that of all never-smoking females combined. Never-smoking AANHPI males also have higher incidence of lung cancer compared to other groups defined by race and ethnicity. Conclusions: The integrative data analysis approach offers great advantages over traditional cancer cohorts, but it does require substantial time and effort to assure data confidentiality, integrity, and transparency to provide robust results. However, with convergence epidemiology—in this case leveraging needed expertise in data science and analysis to answer an epidemiology question—it is also a valuable approach to study disparate cancer outcomes among small populations. Illustrating this, our study is the first to document high rates of lung cancer among never-smoking AANHPI ethnic groups, dispels the myth that AANHPI females are at overall reduced risk of lung cancer, and demonstrates the need to disaggregate this highly diverse population. Results should inform lung cancer prevention strategies among AANHPI populations.

Abstract
Brain metastases are a common occurrence in both non-small cell and small cell lung cancer with the potential to affect quality of life and prognosis. Due to concerns about the accessibility of the central nervous system by systemic chemotherapy agents, the management of brain metastases has historically relied on local therapies including surgery and radiation. However, novel targeted and immune therapies that improve overall outcomes in lung cancer have demonstrated effective intracranial activity. As a result, the management of brain metastases in lung cancer has evolved, with both local and systemic therapies now playing an important role. Factors such as tumor histology (non-small versus small cell), oncogenic driver mutations, and symptom burden from intracranial disease impact treatment decisions. Here, we review the current management of brain metastases in lung cancer, highlighting the roles of stereotactic radiosurgery and novel systemic therapies as well as the ongoing questions that remain under investigation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION After the development of acquired resistance to osimertinib, the standard-of-care treatment for advanced EGFR-mutated NSCLC is chemotherapy. Whether afatinib, a pan-ErbB family tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is active after progression on osimertinib is unknown. METHODS We conducted a single-institution retrospective analysis of patients with advanced EGFR-mutated NSCLC who received afatinib-containing therapy after progression on osimertinib. Kaplan-Meier analyses evaluated progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) from initiation of afatinib. RESULTS After progression on first (N=3) or second-line plus (N=12) osimertinib, 15 patients received afatinib monotherapy (N=3), afatinib and cetuximab (N=10), or afatinib and bevacizumab (N=2). The objective response rate was 6.7% and disease control rate was 53.3%. Median PFS was 2.5 months and median OS was 7.7 months. Median PFS of ≥ 6 months versus < 6 months on osimertinib was associated with a significantly greater median PFS on afatinib (4.0 versus 1.4 months; P=0.003), although there was no significant difference in median OS (9.3 versus 6.6 months; P=0.123). Best response of stable disease/partial response versus progressive disease on osimertinib was associated with a significantly greater median PFS on afatinib (3.4 versus 1.6 months; P=0.036) and a significantly greater median OS (8.7 versus 4.6 months; P=0.017). CONCLUSION Afatinib-containing therapy had limited activity in patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC after progression on osimertinib in this cohort of mostly second-line plus osimertinib. Response and longer PFS to prior osimertinib may be predictive of response to afatinib. Strategies based on osimertinib resistance mechanisms may further define the role of subsequent afatinib.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Preclinical evidence suggests the feedforward cytokine loop of interleukin-6/Janus kinases (JAK)/STAT3 plays a role in epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR TKI) resistance in EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS In this phase 1b study, the JAK1/2 and TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) inhibitor momelotinib was evaluated in combination with erlotinib in patients with EGFR TKI-naive, EGFR-mutated NSCLC. After erlotinib lead-in (50, 75, 100, or 150 mg oral daily [QD]), momelotinib was combined and dose escalated in a 3 + 3 study design. The primary endpoint of maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of momelotinib was determined based on the incidence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) during the first 28-day cycle. Secondary endpoints included efficacy and pharmacokinetics (PK). RESULTS Eleven patients were enrolled across 3 dose levels of momelotinib (100 mg QD, 200 mg QD, and 100 mg twice daily [BID]). The MTD was momelotinib 200 mg QD in combination with erlotinib. Two DLTs of grade 4 neutropenia without fever and grade 3 diarrhea occurred at momelotinib 100 mg BID. Most common treatment-emergent adverse events included diarrhea, dry skin, fatigue, and decreased appetite; the vast majority being grades 1-2. The overall response rate was 54.5% (90% CI 27.1-80.0; all partial) and median progression-free survival was 9.2 months (90% CI 6.2-12.4). Momelotinib did not affect the PK of erlotinib. CONCLUSIONS The JAK1/2 and TBK1 inhibitor momelotinib in combination with erlotinib did not appear to enhance benefit over the historical data of erlotinib monotherapy in patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients with EGFR-mutant lung cancer who have had disease progression on osimertinib commonly receive platinum doublet chemotherapy, but whether adding immunotherapy or bevacizumab provides additional benefit is unknown. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a retrospective analysis at 2 university-affiliated institutions. Patients with EGFR-mutant lung cancer who had progression on osimertinib and received next-line therapy with platinum doublet chemotherapy (chemo), platinum doublet chemotherapy plus immunotherapy (chemo-IO), or platinum doublet chemotherapy plus bevacizumab (chemo-bev), were identified; patients who continued osimertinib with these regimens were included. Efficacy outcomes including duration on treatment (DOT) and overall survival (OS) from the start of chemotherapy were assessed. Associations of treatment regimen with outcomes were evaluated using adjusted Cox regression models, using pairwise comparisons between groups. RESULTS 104 patients were included: 57 received chemo, 12 received chemo-IO, and 35 received chemo-bev. In adjusted models, patients who received chemo-IO had worse OS than did those who received chemo (hazard ratio (HR) 2.66, 95% CI 1.25-5.65; P= .011) or those who received chemo-bev (HR 2.37, 95% CI 1.09-5.65; P= .030). A statistically significant difference in OS could not be detected in patients who received chemo-bev versus those who received chemo (HR 1.50, 95% CI 0.84-2.69; P= .17). CONCLUSION In this retrospective study, giving immunotherapy with platinum doublet chemotherapy after progression on osimertinib was associated with a worse OS compared with platinum doublet chemotherapy alone. Platinum doublet chemotherapy without immunotherapy (with consideration of continuation of osimertinib, in selected cases) is a reasonable choice in this setting, while we await results of clinical trials examining optimal next-line chemotherapy-based regimens in EGFR-mutant lung cancer.

Abstract
PURPOSE KRAS-mutated (KRASMUT) non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is emerging as a heterogeneous disease defined by comutations, which may confer differential benefit to PD-(L)1 immunotherapy. In this study, we leveraged computational biological modeling (CBM) of tumor genomic data to identify PD-(L)1 immunotherapy sensitivity among KRASMUT NSCLC molecular subgroups. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this multicohort retrospective analysis, the genotype clustering frequency ranked method was used for molecular clustering of tumor genomic data from 776 patients with KRASMUT NSCLC. These genomic data were input into the CBM, in which customized protein networks were characterized for each tumor. The CBM evaluated sensitivity to PD-(L)1 immunotherapy using three metrics: programmed death-ligand 1 expression, dendritic cell infiltration index (nine chemokine markers), and immunosuppressive biomarker expression index (14 markers). RESULTS Genotype clustering identified eight molecular subgroups and the CBM characterized their shared cancer pathway characteristics: KRASMUT/TP53MUT, KRASMUT/CDKN2A/B/CMUT, KRASMUT/STK11MUT, KRASMUT/KEAP1MUT, KRASMUT/STK11MUT/KEAP1MUT, KRASMUT/PIK3CAMUT, KRAS MUT/ATMMUT, and KRASMUT without comutation. CBM identified PD-(L)1 immunotherapy sensitivity in the KRASMUT/TP53MUT, KRASMUT/PIK3CAMUT, and KRASMUT alone subgroups and resistance in the KEAP1MUT containing subgroups. There was insufficient genomic information to elucidate PD-(L)1 immunotherapy sensitivity by the CBM in the KRASMUT/CDKN2A/B/CMUT, KRASMUT/STK11MUT, and KRASMUT/ATMMUT subgroups. In an exploratory clinical cohort of 34 patients with advanced KRASMUT NSCLC treated with PD-(L)1 immunotherapy, the CBM-assessed overall survival correlated well with actual overall survival (r = 0.80, P < .001). CONCLUSION CBM identified distinct PD-(L)1 immunotherapy sensitivity among molecular subgroups of KRASMUT NSCLC, in line with previous literature. These data provide proof-of-concept that computational modeling of tumor genomics could be used to expand on hypotheses from clinical observations of patients receiving PD-(L)1 immunotherapy and suggest mechanisms that underlie PD-(L)1 immunotherapy sensitivity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In most studies, patients with EGFR L858R mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have a shorter duration of response to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy than do patients with EGFR exon 19 deletion NSCLC. The role that co-mutations play in this observation is unknown. METHODS We performed a single-institution retrospective analysis of patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC (exon 19 deletion or L858R mutation) who received frontline EGFR TKI for metastatic disease between 2014 and 2019, and who had STAMP next-generation sequencing (NGS), a 130-gene platform. Time to treatment failure (TTF) and overall survival were calculated using Cox models adjusted for age, race, and brain metastases. Co-mutations in key tumor suppressor genes (TP53, RB1, KEAP1, CDKN2A, or CTNNB1) were identified and their effects on outcomes were evaluated. Analyses were stratified according to receipt of osimertinib versus nonosimertinib as frontline EGFR TKI. RESULTS Of 137 patients, 72 (57%) had EGFR exon 19 deletions and 65 (43%) had EGFR L858R mutations. Median TTF and OS on frontline TKI was shorter for the L858R cohort versus the exon 19 deletion cohort in univariate analysis. In adjusted models, this difference persisted for TTF but was no longer significant for OS. The difference in TTF in L858R mutant tumors was driven by the presence of co-mutations in key tumor suppressor genes. CONCLUSION Patients with metastatic NSCLC with mutations in EGFR L858R had shorter TTF on frontline TKI compared to patients with EGFR exon 19 deletions. Co-mutations in tumor suppressor genes may play an important role in the differential response to TKI therapy.

Abstract
Background Smoking cessation reduces lung cancer mortality. However, little is known about whether diagnosis of lung cancer impacts changes in smoking behaviors. Furthermore, the effects of smoking cessation on the risk of second primary lung cancer (SPLC) have not been established yet. This study aims to examine smoking behavior changes after initial primary lung cancer (IPLC) diagnosis and estimate the effect of smoking cessation on SPLC risk following IPLC diagnosis. Methods The study cohort consisted of 986 participants in the Multiethnic Cohort Study who were free of lung cancer and active smokers at baseline (1993-1996), provided 10-year follow-up smoking data (2003-2008), and were diagnosed with IPLC in 1993-2017. The primary outcome was a change in smoking status from “current” at baseline to “former” at 10-year follow-up (ie, smoking cessation), analyzed using logistic regression. The second outcome was SPLC incidence after smoking cessation, estimated using cause-specific Cox regression. All statistical tests were 2-sided. Results Among 986 current smokers at baseline, 51.1% reported smoking cessation at 10-year follow-up. The smoking cessation rate was statistically significantly higher (80.6%) for those diagnosed with IPLC between baseline and 10-year follow-up vs those without IPLC diagnosis (45.4%) during the 10-year period (adjusted odds ratio = 5.12, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 3.38 to 7.98; P < .001). Incidence of SPLC was statistically significantly lower among the 504 participants who reported smoking cessation at follow-up compared with those without smoking cessation (adjusted hazard ratio = 0.31, 95% CI = 0.14 to 0.67; P = .003). Conclusion Lung cancer diagnosis has a statistically significant impact on smoking cessation. Quitting smoking after IPLC diagnosis may reduce the risk of developing a subsequent malignancy in the lungs.
