Abstract 71P

Background

Precision oncology personalizes treatments for cancer patients, aiming to improve their clinical outcomes. ESMO Scale for Clinical Actionability of Molecular Targets (ESCAT) allows evidence-based evaluation of genomic findings. Molecular tumor boards (MTBs) multi-disciplinary expertise enables ESCAT implementation and personalized treatment choice.

Methods

We retrospectively reviewed outcomes of patients discussed at European Institute of Oncology MTB between June 2019 and June 2022. We performed descriptive statistics and survival analysis comparing patients that received molecularly-matched treatments (MMT) and non-matched treatments (nMMT).

Results

MTB discussed 251 patients with cancer encompassing 26 different primary cancer types. Breast cancer accounted for 25.5% of the total. 188 (74.6%) patients had at least one actionable alteration. After MTB discussion, 76 patients received MMT while 76 received nMMT. Patients receiving MMT displayed higher overall response rate (37.3% vs 12.9%), median progression-free-survival (PFS 5.8 months, 95% CI 4.1–7.5 vs 3.6 months, 95% CI 2.5–4.8, p=0.041; HR 0.679, 95% CI 0.467–0.987) and median overall-survival (mOS 35.1 months, 95% CI not evaluable vs 8.5 months, 95% CI 3.8 – 13.2; HR 0.431, 95% CI 0.250 – 0.744, p=0.002). Superiority in OS and PFS persisted in multivariable models. Among 61 pretreated patients receiving MMT, 37.5% had superior PFS compared to the prior line (PFS2/PFS1 ratio ≥ 1.3). Higher OS (p=0.001) and PFS (p=0.049) were observed for patients with higher actionability evidence (ESCAT tier I) alterations, while no difference was observed in lower evidence levels. Table: 71P
Most frequent actionable genes

Alteration Total number Treated patients Drug administered ESCAT at discussion ORR
PIK3CA 51 4 Alpelisib IA 1/4 (25%)
BRCA2 32 19 PARP-i IA 7/19 (37%)
BRAF V600 20 2 BRAF + MEK-i IIIA 1/2 (50%)

MSI-HIGH 14 8 Anti-PD(L)-1 IC 4/8 (50%)
BRCA1 11 9 PARP-i IA 2/9 (22%)
RET 10 10 RET-i IIIA 7/10 (70%)

Conclusions

We report real-world data of the first Italian experience of MTB application in clinical practice. Our work shows that MTBs can yield valuable clinical benefit in terms of OS and PFS. Biomarkers with lower actionability ESCAT level appear to be linked to lower clinical benefit.
