Abstract 145P
Background
IO ± chemotherapy (CT) is first-line therapy for mNSCLC without actionable mutations. We aimed to identify a genomic signature potentially predicting resistance to IO using NGS.
Methods
Pts with mNSCLC who received IO or CT/IO were eligible. NGS was performed by TSO500HT® assay (DNA [522 genes], RNA [55 genes], Tumor Mutational Burden, Microsatellite Instability) or Oncomine Focus Assay® (DNA, 35 genes) plus Archer’s FusionPlex Lung Panel® (RNA, 17 genes), according to quality/quantity cellularity. A least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression was conducted to choose genes. The correlation between LASSO-selected genes and progression-free survival (PFS) was evaluated by univariable Cox regression. A risk score was derived using regression coefficients of significant genes in the multivariable analysis. Pts were divided into two groups based on the median risk score (0 vs >0). The risk score was evaluated in a multivariable model including clinical features.
Results
56 pts were retrospectively included. 32 (57%) received CT/IO and 23 (43%) IO. Median follow-up was 10.4 months. Among 346 genes, 15 resulted potentially predictive of PFS. At univariable analysis, 6 genes were significantly correlated to PFS: AKT3 (HR 40.39, 95% IC 5.58-292.30, p<0.001), ARID5B (HR 4.98, 95% IC 1.11-22.24, p=0.04), CD276 (HR 14.33, 95% IC 2.60-78.99, p=0.002), PAX8 (HR 8.33, 95% IC 1.78-38.95, p=0.007), PDGFRB (HR 4.88, 95% IC 1.42-16.75, p=0.01) and RICTOR (HR 3.82, 95% IC 1.08-13.57, p=0.04). In the multivariable analysis PAX8 was excluded and a genomic signature with 5 genes was considered. PFS was significantly different in the two risk groups: HR 13.56, 95% IC 5.30-34.67, p<0.001, with a median PFS of 1.64 (95% IC 0.76-NA) vs 13.25 months. (95% IC 10.88-NA). The genomic signature remained prognostic in a multivariable model including age, smoke, histology and regimen (HR 15.71; 95% IC 5.19-47.52, p<0.001).
Conclusions
A genomic signature including AKT3, ARID5B, CD276, PDGFRB and RICTOR alterations was significantly associated with shorter PFS in pts receiving IO. Validation in external cohort is ongoing.
