Abstract 7627: First NGS-based companion diagnostic to aid in selecting non-small cell lung cancer patients with ERBB2 (HER2) activating mutations for treatment with trastuzumab deruxtecan

Abstract

Abstract Introduction The ERBB2 companion diagnostic program aims to expand the intended use of the Oncomine ™ Dx Target Test (ODxTT) to determine ERBB2 single nucleotide variants (SNVs) in exons 8, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22 and exon 20 insertions from formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor samples in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who may benefit from targeted drug therapy. Methods The ODxTT is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic test that uses targeted high throughput, parallel-sequencing technology to detect SNVs, deletions, insertions, and CNVs in genes from DNA and fusions from RNA isolated from FFPE tissue samples using the Ion PGM ™ Dx System. Analytical validation (AV) studies interrogated ODxTT’s ability to detect ERBB2 mutations. The clinical validation (CV) study involved a method comparison/concordance analysis of ERBB2 mutations between the ODxTT and the TruSight Tumor 170 (TST170) assay, as well as a series of clinical trial assays (CTAs). The CV study was conducted using clinical specimens from 91 patients enrolled in Destiny-Lung01 and 121 stage-matched commercially procured samples. The aim was to evaluate positive percent agreement (PPA), negative percent agreement (NPA) and overall percent agreement (OPA) for CTAs and TST170 assay. Results A total of 91 ERBB2 subjects were included in the full analysis of the Destiny-Lung01 clinical trial. 49 samples had valid ODxTT results available and 42 samples were unevaluable which included 13 unknowns and 29 test not performed. The 49 patient samples that were evaluable were used to assess the clinical efficacy based on ODxTT results. In the series of 121 samples that were used to assess clinical efficacy in the CV study, 109 had evaluable ODxTT results. The PPA, NPA and OPA of ODxTT to the CTAs when excluding unknowns were 98%, 100% and 99.4%, respectively, and based off the Clopper-Pearson method for binomial distribution a 95% lower bound confidence interval (CI) were 89.6%, 96.6% and 96.5%, respectively. There was one discordant sample with a negative ODxTT and a positive CTA result (false negative). The PPA, NPA and OPA of ODxTT to TST170 assay were 100%, 99.1% and 99.3% respectively with a 95% lower bound CI of 90.8%, 95.0% and 96.3%, respectively. There was one discordant sample with a negative TST170 and a positive ODxTT result (false positive). Conclusion AV and CV studies successfully verified and validated the ODxTT for the detection of ERBB2 mutations in NSCLC FFPE samples. The 6 AV studies met the necessary product requirements and acceptance criteria to detect clinical samples with ERBB2 mutations. Additionally, the CV study clinical accuracy and clinical efficacy results demonstrated the safety and effectiveness of the use of the ODxTT in FFPE samples as an aid to identify NSCLC patients eligible for treatment with the Daiichi Sankyo lung cancer therapeutic T-DXd.
