Abstract 1580P
Background
In the US, 5 most common advanced/metastatic (met/adv) solid tumors are metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (mNSCLC), metastatic breast cancer (mBC), metastatic prostate cancer (mPC), metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), and metastatic pancreatic cancer (mPanC). Current guidelines recommend NGS testing for pts with these malignancies due to approved life-prolonging therapies for pts with driver mutations. However, large cohort studies evaluating disparities in NGS testing have not been reported. Herein, we investigated the effect of SDOH on disparities in NGS testing in these tumors.
Methods
In this IRB-approved retrospective study, pt-level data were extracted from the nationwide Flatiron Health electronic health record (EHR)-derived de-identified database. Inclusion criteria: pts diagnosed with mNSCLC, mBC, mPC, mCRC, and mPanC between 2018 and 2022, with available treatment information. Disparities in the rates of NGS testing were assessed by socioeconomic status (SES), race-ethnicity (R/E), region, and insurance were assessed using Fine and Grey’s modified Cox proportional hazard model with NGS testing as the event of interest and death as a competing risk. Different baseline hazards by the year of met/adv diagnosis were assumed. Complete case analysis was performed for each analysis. All analysis was done using R v.4.2.3.
Results
The analytic cohort included 21964, 9872, 3560, 10942, and 4945 pts with mNSCLC, mBC, mPC, mCRC, and mPanC, respectively. Pts with lower SES were less likely to receive NGS testing. Results are summarized in the table. Further disparities in NGS testing by R/E, insurance type, and region will be presented in the meeting. Impact of SES on NGS testing (HR>1 indicates more NGS testing). Table: 1580P

These results highlight the need for policies to mitigate this disparity. Clinical trial identificationEditorial acknowledgementLegal entity responsible for the studyThe authors.
