Abstract 494P
Background
Patients receiving first-line afatinib, gefitinib or erlotinib for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutant advanced non-small cell lung cancer develop progression of disease (PD) after an average of 9-13 months.
Methods
A retrospective analysis of PD pattern and prevalence of acquired T790M mutation among patients failing first-line afatinib versus gefitinib or erlotinib at University Malaya Medical Centre from 1st January 2015 to 31th December 2018.
Results
Of 87 patients who developed PD while on first-line EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment, 19 (21.8%) were on afatinib, 49 (56.3%) were on gefitinib, and 19 (21.8%) were on erlotinib. The median progression-free survival (mPFS) of these patients is as shown in the table. Of 20 patients (23.0%) who developed new symptomatic brain metastases, one (5.0%) had new leptomeningeal metastases, three (15.0%) had both new leptomeningeal metastases and solid brain metastases, and the remaining 16 (80.0%) had new solid brain metastases only. New leptomeningeal metastases occurred in one patient treated with afatinib and three patients treated with gefitinib. Forty-nine patients (56.3%) were investigated for acquired T790M mutation either by plasma biopsy or tissue biopsy or both. The prevalence of acquired T790M mutation was 61.2%. There was no difference in the pattern of PD or prevalence of acquired T790M mutation among patients treated with afatinib, gefitinib or erlotinib.
Table: 494P
Pattern of PD | Patients with PD (n = 87) | Afatinib (n = 19) | Gefitinib (n = 49) | Erlotinib (n = 19) | p-value | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Median PFS, months | 11.0 | 13.1 | 10.9 | 7.8 | 0.479 | |
New brain metastases, No. (%) | Yes No | 20 (23.0) 67 (77.0) | 5 (26.3) 14 (73.7) | 12 (24.5) 37 (75.5) | 3 (15.8) 16 (84.2) | 0.692 |
New solid brain lesion metastases, No (%) | Yes No | 19 (21.8) 68 (78.2) | 4 (21.1) 15 (78.9) | 12 (24.5) 37 (75.5) | 3 (15.5) 16 (84.2) | 0.735 |
New leptomeningeal metastases, No. (%) | Yes No | 4 (4.6) 83 (95.4) | 1 (5.2) 18 (94.8) | 3 (6.1) 46 (93.9) | 0 19 (100) | 0.550 |
No. of patients tested for acquired T790M mutation | n = 49 | n = 14 | n = 27 | n = 8 | p-value | |
Acquired T790M mutation detected, No. (%) | Yes No | 30 (61.2) 19 (38.8) | 9 (64.3) 5 (35.7) | 16 (59.3) 11(40.7) | 5 (62.5) 3 (37.5) | 0.949 |
Conclusions
New leptomeningeal metastases were uncommon in patients receiving first-line EGFR-TKI. The choice of first-line first- or second generation EGFR-TKI did not influence the pattern of PD and prevalence of acquired T790M mutation. However, patients receiving afatinib appeared to have longer mPFS than those on gefitinib or erlotinib.
