Abstract 5602
Background
Genotyping of ctDNA characterizes the molecular profile and monitors tumor molecular dynamics, but the clinical applicability of next generation sequencing (NGS) DNA sequencing has not been assessed in a large prospective cohort of mCRC patients (pts).
Methods
mCRC pts with RAS wt tumors treated in first line with chemotherapy (CT) + cetuximab in 16 Spanish hospitals were included. Plasma samples were collected baseline (BL) and every 2 cycles until progression. ctDNA was isolated and sequenced with NGS platform Oncomine Colon cfDNA Assay which identifies hotspot mutations (mut) in AKT1, BRAF, CTNNB1, EGFR, ERBB2, FBXW7, GNAS, KRAS, MAP2K1, NRAS, PIK3CA, SMAD4, TP53 and APC. RAS ctDNA mut were also assessed by dPCR (BEAMing) at BL. Detection of any mut in plasma was considered as ctDNA+. Mut in BRAF/RAS/MAP2K1/PIK3CA were considered as anti-EGFR resistance.
Results
101 pts were enrolled (65.3% male; median age 64.5y; 77.6% left colon). RAS mut were detected in 11 pts BL by BEAMing. After quality assessment, 84 samples were sequenced by NGS BL and at least one mut was detected in 65 samples (77.3%; median 1, range 0-5) and 10 RAS mut were detected. Plasma samples from 47 pts were also analyzed after 4 cycles of treatment (C4) and mut were detected in 30 pts (63.8%; median 1, range 0-3). Median mutant allele fraction for paired samples was 24.9 at BL and 0.56 at C4 (p = 0.0045). Treatment clinical benefit (CB: PR, CR and SD ≥ 16weeks) was observed in 72 out of 85 pts. BL ctDNA+ or C4 ctDNA change were not associated with CB (p = 0.722). Assessment of RAS BL mut was not associated with CB (p = 0.243 by NGS and p = 0.712 by BEAMing), while the absence of RAS mut at C4 predicted treatment CB (93.2% vs. 6.8% RAS mut p = 0.02). Median PFS for all pts was 10.13 month. ctDNA+ at BL or C4 were not correlated with PFS (HR 0.8; p = 0.73). No differences in PFS were found in ctDNA RAS mut vs RAS wt BL (BEAMing+ HR = 1.2 p = 0.79 and NGS+ HR = 2.6 p = 0.052). Among all anti-EGFR resistant mut, only ctDNA RAS mut were detected at C4 (N = 4). Persistence or emergence of RAS mut at C4 were strongly associated with PFS (12.9m vs. 4.2. HR 8.8 p = 0.0003).
Conclusions
Early RAS ctDNA dynamics predicts benefit to first line CT+cetuximab in mCRC pts.
