Real-world data analysis of first-line targeted therapy for patients with non-small cell lung cancer with different EGFR mutation status in a tertiary care hospital.

Abstract

e20586 Background: Lung cancer is still the malignant tumor with the highest incidence and mortality rate in the world, of which non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for about 85%. The EGFR mutation rate in Asians is 30%-60%, with exon 19 deletion mutations and exon 21 L858R point mutations accounting for about 90% of EGFR mutations, which are the classic EGFR mutation types. The two have significant differences in clinical characteristics, and some clinical trials have shown differences in efficacy between different subgroups, but whether they exist in the real world needs to be further confirmed. Meanwhile, the efficacy of first-line targeted therapy in patients with coexisting mutant NSCLC harboring different EGFR classical mutations and whether there is a difference in different subgroups has not been conclusively determined. Methods: To collect general clinical data and their genetic test reports of NSCLC patients diagnosed with gene mutations who attended the Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College from January 2019 to December 2021 for follow-up, with a follow-up date of June 30,2023, as the end date. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and log-rank test were applied to compare:1)the median PFS in different subgroups of patients with no co-mutation classic EGFR mutation;2)the median PFS in patients with co-mutation classic EGRR mutation and no co-mutation classic EGFR mutation;3)the median PFS in different subgroups of patients with no co-mutation 19-Del/L858R and with co-mutation 19-Del/L858Rpatients;4)median PFS of patients between co-mutated 19-Del and L858R subgroups. Results: The median PFS of 19Del was significantly better than that of L858R in different subgroups of EGFR classical mutations (14.0 months vs. 8.1 months, p = 0.004 < 0.05). The median PFS of EGFR classical mutation was significantly better than that of EGFR classical mutation with co-mutation,11.1months vs. 5.8 months, respectively, p < 0.001. In different subgroups,19Del median PFS was superior to 19Del co-mutation (14.0 months vs. 6.1 months, p = 0.001 < 0.05),and L858R median PFS was superior to L858R co-mutation (8.1 months vs. 5.8 months, p = 0.449 > 0.05). 19Del co-mutation and L858R co-mutation median PFS were not observed in the analysis of the same simple 19del first-line targeted therapy survival benefit was significantly better than the similar survival benefit of L858R, whose median PFS was 6.1 months vs. 5.8 months, respectively, p = 0.449>0.05, the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusions: The survival benefit of first-line targeted therapy for 19Del in the real world is superior to that of L858R, while the clinical benefit of first-line targeted therapy is poor for classical mutations in EGFR with co-mutations, and combinations with other therapeutic modalities should be considered.
