Abstract 660: Real-world prevalence of metastasis and overall survival (OS) in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (aNSCLC) with KRAS G12C and with or without STK11 or KEAP1 mutations

Abstract

Abstract Introduction: KRAS mt are common in lung cancer, with G12C mt being the most prevalent in pts with aNSCLC. This study assessed pts with KRAS G12C aNSCLC with or without STK11 or KEAP1 mt. Methods: Pts diagnosed with aNSCLC between Jan 2011 and Dec 2019 in the US-based de-identified Flatiron Health-Foundation Medicine clinico-genomic database were included. Cox proportional hazards models adjusted for baseline demographics and clinical characteristics were used to analyze the effect of mutational status on OS in pts receiving immunotherapy (CIT), chemotherapy (chemo) or both (CIT+chemo). Results: Of 2217 1L pts, 454 (20.5%), 344 (15.5%) and 163 (7.4%) had tumors with KRAS G12C, STK11 and KEAP1 mt, respectively. Of 1019 2L pts, 234 (23.0%), 191 (18.7%) and 88 (8.6%) had tumors with KRAS G12C, STK11 and KEAP1 mt, respectively. A higher proportion of pts with KRAS G12C were females, PD-L1+ and had nonsquamous histology vs KRAS wildtype (WT) pts. Pts with KRAS G12C tumors had a higher cumulative incidence of mets (31.5% vs 25.8%) and brain mets (26.1% vs 18.8%) vs WT pts (P<0.001). No statistically significant difference was seen in the association of KRAS status with OS when stratifying by treatment type. In KRAS WT pts, STK11 mt vs WT pts had shorter OS in 1L (6.1 vs 9.4 mo) and 2L (4.5 vs 7.6 mo; Table); a similar trend was seen for pts receiving 1L CIT+chemo. In KRAS G12C pts, KEAP1 mt vs WT pts had shorter OS in 1L (4.9 vs 13.4 mo) and 2L (1.8 vs 9.4 mo); similar differences were seen in pts receiving 1L CIT+chemo or chemo. Conclusions: In pts with aNSCLC and KRAS WT, STK11 mt was associated with significantly worse OS; KRAS G12C co-occurring with KEAP1 mt had a similar result. Pts with STK11/KEAP1 mt have poor prognosis and high unmet medical need. This analysis highlights the importance of evaluating genomic alterations in clinical practice to better understand the interplay between treatment and survival. Table.
