Abstract 564P
Background
The current National Comprehensive Cancer Network guideline recommends Afatinib and/or Osimertinib as the preferred first-line treatment strategy for patients with advanced NSCLC carrying EGFR p.G719X mutation. In the absence of head-to-head trials comparing Afatinib with Osimertinib in EGFR p.G719X mutant patients, it is unclear which regimen is the preferred treatment option.
Methods
A large cohort of 4228 treatment-naïve patients with lung cancer who underwent targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) testing was screened in terms of the EGFR p.G719X mutation. Ba/F3 cells stably expressing the EGFR p.G719A mutation with either the p.E709K mutation or not were created to investigate the response to EGFR-TKIs. The patient-derived lung cancer organoid (LCO) cultures were created, and the corresponding drug treatments and sensitivity (DTS) test was performed.
Results
EGFR p.G719X mutation occurs with a prevalence of 2.56%. EGFR p.E709X(30.4%) composed the most frequent co-occurring EGFR mutation. Co-occurring EGFR p.E709X mutations exerted a detrimental effect on outcomes in Osimertinib-treated patients (G719X/E709X VS. G719X; ORR: 0.00% VS. 47.62%, P<0.001; mPFS:7.18 VS. 14.2 months, P=0.042; respectively). In contrast, no significant difference was found in the treatment efficacy between EGFR p.G719X/E709X and EGFR p.G719X patients upon Afatinib treatment (G719X/E709X VS. G719X; ORR: 71.43% VS. 56.67%, P=0.99; mPFS:14.7 VS. 15.8 months, P=0.69; respectively). In vitro experiments elucidated a resistant drug sensitivity and poor inhibition of EGFR phosphorylation in Ba/F3 cells expressing EGFR p.G719A/E709K mutation treated with the third-generation EGFR-TKIs. The DTS result of LCO revealed that the second-generation EGFR-TKIs may be superior to first or third-generation EGFR-TKIs for patients with EGFR p.G719X/E709X mutation.
Conclusions
We enrolled the largest available dataset of EGFR p.G719X-mutant patients with NSCLC. The variable sensitivity of EGFR p.G719X mutation to different EGFR TKIs indicates that a personalized treatment strategy should be undertaken in patients depending on the status of underlying co-existing EGFR p.E709X mutation.
