Abstract 4325
Background
Osimertinib (osi) is a third-generation EGFR-TKI selective for sensitizing (EGFRm) and p.T790M resistance mutations approved for metastatic NSCLC. Despite a primary benefit, almost all patients (pts) develop acquired resistance, whose mechanisms are not completely characterized.
Methods
Metastatic NSCLC pts who performed a tissue and plasma biopsy at osi progression, and optionally before, were identified from the prospective MATCH-R trial (NCT02517892). Targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS, 74 to 82 genes), comparative genomic hybridization (CGH), whole exome sequencing (WES), and RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) were performed on the tissue. All molecular alterations were reviewed, those related to definitive or potential resistance mechanism were included in the analysis.
Results
The 31 pts included (23 [74%] women) had the tissue biopsy analysis at osi progression by NGS (97%), CGH (87%) and WES+RNA-Seq (61%). Additional cfDNA genomic profile was available for 17 pts (55%). Two pts received osi as first-line and 29 (94%) at previous EGFR TKI resistance. Most frequent acquired resistance to osi was EGFR on-target alterations (n = 12, 39%): 9 p.C797S, 2 p.L817Q and 1 EGFR amplification (amp). 4 pts (3 p.C797S and 1 p.L817Q) also had EGFR amp as potential concurrent resistance. Off-target resistance alterations were found in 11 (35%) tumors: 5 fusions involving oncogenes (16%, RET, MET, BRAF, ALK, FGFR3, and NTRK1), 2 with BRAF p.V600E mutation (6%) which co-occurred with p.C797S, then MET amp, HER2 amp, KRAS mut, and PIK3CA mut in 1 (3%). More than one resistance mechanism was found in 14 tumors (45%), more than two in 5 (16%). DNA repair gene alterations were observed in 10 pts (32%). Median TMB, assessed in 18 tumors, was 2.52 mutations/Mb, 1 was classified as high. p.T790M loss (54%) was associated with a more aggressive progression pattern compared with p.T790M maintain. For 20 pts a paired pre-osi biopsy was analyzed; 4 alterations (20%, 1 on-target, 3 off-target) were already detected.
Conclusions
Resistance mechanisms to osi are more complex than expected since more than one alteration was recognized in 45% of pts. Combination strategy might be needed.
