Abstract

About 10% of EGFR mutations (EGFRmut) are ‘uncommon mutations’ (ucEGFRmut), correlating with lower response to 1st & 2nd generation EGFR inhibitors (EGFRi) compared to common mutations. Osimertinib is a 3rd generation EGFRi, active against common EGFRmut. Efficacy data of osimertinib in ucEGFRmut are scarce. We aimed to collect real-world data of the usage of osimertinib as the 1st EGFRi for ucEGFRmut. This is a multi-center, international, academic-initiated retrospective study of mNSCLC with ucEGFRmut treated with osimertinib prior to any other EGFRi. RECIST response was evaluated by investigators. PFS and OS were calculated by Kaplan-Meier method from initiation of Osimertinib, duration of response (DOR) was calculated for responders. 46 patients were identified in 18 centers from 8 countries (Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Israel, Spain, Switzerland). Median age was 64 (range 37-91) years, 72% females, 89% Caucasian, never/former/current smokers were 50%/33%/15% respectively, ECOG PS was 0-1/2/3-4 in 78%/13%/6.5%. G719X was the most frequent mutation (16 pts, 34.8%), followed by de novo T790M (9 pts, 22%, 5 of them compound with common mutations) and L861Q (7 pts, 15.2%). Compound EGFR mutations were found in 16 pts (34.8%), TP53 mutations in 13 pts (28.3%). Most frequent metastatic sites were brain/bone/lung in 47%/47%/36% respectively. For 37 pts (80.4%), osimertinib was the 1st treatment given for advanced disease. Most frequent toxicities were gastrointestinal (24 pts, 52%) and skin (16 pts, 35%); 5 patients had grade 3-4 AEs. RECIST response (RR) was available for 44 pts, CR for 2 (4.5%), PR for 20 (45.5%), SD for 17 (38.6%), and PD for 5 (11.4%). Median DOR was 17.4 months (95% CI 9.1-NA). RR for G719X was 43.8%, 33.3% for T790M, and 71.4% for L861Q. Median PFS was 9.1 months (95% CI 8.1–19.2). Median OS was 18.4 months (95% CI 13.5-NR). Osimertinib showed activity in ucEGFRmut with 85% disease control rate and encouraging PFS and DOR. This report comprises, to the best of our knowledge, the largest dataset of osimertinib as the first EGFRi for ucEGFRmut. UNICORN continues to recruit patients, to expand our knowledge on efficacy of osimertinib for these patients.
