The therapeutic features of EGFR L858R exon 21 mutation in non-small cell lung cancer

Introduction. Monotherapy with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) results in a worse prognosis for patients with the exon 21 L858R mutation than for patients with exon 19 Del. Thus, the search for alternative drug strategies that improve treatment outcomes for patients with NSCLC with the L858R mutation is an urgent problem. This article presents preliminary results of a pilot study of the effectiveness of chemotherapy integrated into targeted anti-EGFR therapy for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with a mutation in exon 21 of the EGFR gene.Aim. To improve progression-free survival results on first-line therapy in patients with NSCLC with the L858R mutation.Materials and methods. From 2015 to 2021 23 patients were included in the study with advanced L858R 21 exon mutation NSCLC for the first line of treatment. Patients received TKI therapy for the first 2 months, followed by discontinuation of targeted therapy and receiving 3 courses of paclitaxel and carboplatin. Target therapy was then resumed until disease progression. The follow up period was 36 months.Results. The objective response rate (ORR) was 59.1%. Median progression-free survival 23 months [95% CI: 16–36]. Four (18.1%) patients developed grade 3-4 toxicity during chemotherapy, and therefore the 3rd course of chemotherapy was canceled in one patient. Due to toxicity during targeted therapy, gefitinib dose was reduced in one patient and the drug was changed from gefitinib to afatinib in the other one patient.Conclusion. Preliminary results of our study showed that integrating chemotherapy into targeted treatment for this category of patients may become a new worthy option to increase median PFS.

Safety and efficacy of osimertinib plus consolidative stereotactic ablative radiation (SABR) in advanced EGFR mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC): Results from a multi-center phase II trial.

8518 Background: Despite high response rates to EGFR inhibitors, patients with advanced EGFR mutant NSCLC generally experience disease progression within two years (osimertinib median PFS 18.9 months, median OS 38.6 months). We sought to determine whether administration of SABR to residual sites of disease at the time of expected best response to EGFR inhibition could prolong disease control. Methods: This was a multi-center single-arm phase 2 study. Eligible patients had advanced EGFR mutant (exon 19 or 21) NSCLC not restricted by number, site, or size of metastases; ECOG 0-2; no prior treatment with EGFR inhibitors or immune checkpoint inhibitors; and no history of interstitial lung disease. Patients with stable or responding disease after 8 weeks of osimertinib received SABR to persisting lesions, followed by continued osimertinib until progression or intolerance. At subsequent progression, patients could receive further SABR and continue osimertinib if deemed clinically feasible and appropriate. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS); secondary endpoints included duration on osimertinib, toxicity, and overall survival (OS). Results: A total of 43 patients (32 women, 11 men) were enrolled and initiated osimertinib, of whom 29 (67%) received SABR. Reasons SABR was not administered included inadequate response (9%), insufficient residual disease (19%), and other (5%). At a median follow-up of 35.7 months (95% CI, 28.8, 37.6), 42 evaluable patients had a median PFS of 32.6 months and a median OS of 45.7 months. The median duration of osimertinib was 31.5 months. Grade ≥3 toxicities included one incidence each (2%) of the following: pain at the site of radiation, paronychia, liver enzyme elevation, fatigue, hyponatremia, diarrhea, and pneumonitis. Conclusions: Osimertinib plus consolidative SABR appears to provide a PFS and OS benefit when considered against historical data with osimertinib alone. This treatment strategy may offer a well-tolerated and practical approach to improving outcomes for patients with advanced EGFR mutant NSCLC. Clinical trial information: NCT03667820 .

Exposure-response (ER) analyses of efficacy and safety of trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) to inform dosing recommendation in HER2-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

e20545 Background: T-DXd, a novel human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) targeting antibody drug conjugate, was evaluated at doses of 5.4 and 6.4 mg/kg every three weeks in Phase 1 or 2 trials in HER2 mutant (HER2m) NSCLC subjects, including Destiny-Lung01 (DL-01) and DL-02 trials1,2. ER analyses of key efficacy and safety endpoints were conducted to support the dosing recommendation of T-DXd in HER2m NSCLC. Methods: Exposure-efficacy (EE) analysis was performed using confirmed objective response (cORR) data from HER2m NSCLC in Phase 1-2 trials (N = 181). The dataset included primary analysis data cut from DL-011 and interim analysis data cut from DL-02. Exposure-safety (ES) analyses of T-DXd were performed, using pooled data from 11 Phase 1-3 trials (N = 1850) across tumor types, including DL-01 and DL-02, for safety endpoints of adverse events (AEs) associated with dose reduction or discontinuation, Grade3+ (G3+) AEs, serious AEs, G3+Anemia, G3+neutropenia, G3+thrombocytopenia, adjudicated any grade interstitial lung disease (ILD), and G3+ ILD. cORR and all safety endpoints, except ILD were analyzed by logistic regression; any grade ILD was analyzed by parametric time-to-event analysis. The T-DXd or DXd exposure metric and numerous patient-specific covariates were tested in the analysis. Results: T-DXd exposure had a positive but shallow relationship with cORR. The predicted cORR varied from 57% (95% credible interval (CrI): [36, 77]) to 65% (95% CrI: [41, 84]) across 5th and 95th percentile of T-DXd exposure respectively. No clinically meaningful difference in cORR was estimated across 5.4 and 6.4 mg/kg doses with predicted cORR values of 53% (95% CrI: [44, 60]) and 55% (95% CrI: [47, 62]) at T-DXd doses of 5.4 mg/kg and 6.4 mg/kg, respectively. ES relationships were consistent with previous T-DXd ES analyses in breast cancer (BC). Model-predicted AE rates were lower (up to 9%) in 5.4 mg/kg compared to the 6.4 mg/kg dose. Model-predicted safety at 5.4 mg/kg dose in HER2m NSCLC was similar to the approved dose of 5.4 mg/kg in BC. Conclusions: The ER analyses showed no clinically meaningful difference in efficacy between 5.4 and 6.4 mg/kg doses of T-DXd; and safety events were lower in 5.4 mg/kg, thus supporting the 5.4 mg/kg recommended dose for HER2m NSCLC. These findings were later confirmed based on primary analysis in DL-022 and support the utility of ER analyses in dosing recommendation. Reference: Li BT et al.

PD-L1 and alternative immune checkpoints (AICs) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC): Insights into the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) and immunotherapy (IO) outcomes.

8531 Background: PD-L1 and recently identified AICs (B7x, B7-H3, and HHLA2) may function as key immune evasion mechanisms in NSCLC and influence IO efficacy. This study explores the expression patterns of PD-L1 and AICs within the TIME and their impact on IO outcomes in NSCLC, including key molecular subtypes. Methods: NSCLC samples (n=27,629) were analyzed (Caris Life Sciences) with NextGen Sequencing on DNA (592 genes or whole exome)/RNA (whole transcriptome). Tumor cell PD-L1 expression (22c3) was assessed by IHC. Gene expression profiles were analyzed for IFN-γ score and QuantiSEQ was used to assess immune cell infiltration in the TIME. Real-world overall survival (rwOS: from time of biopsy to last contact), time on treatment [TOT: from the first pembrolizumab (pembro) treatment to the last], and OS on pembro (OSpem: from pembro start to last contact) were calculated. Mann-Whitney U, X2/Fisher-Exact, and log-rank tests were applied where appropriate. Results: PD-L1 IHC+ NSCLC and cases with high PD-L1 RNA expression had higher IFN-γ score and immune cell fractions (p<0.0001 for both) vs PD-L1 IHC- and low expression, respectively. Additionally, PD-L1 IHC+ NSCLC was associated with (a/w) higher median transcript levels (TPM) of PD-L1 and B7-H3, while PD-L1 IHC- NSCLC was a/w higher TPM of HHLA2 and B7x (p<0.0001 for all). AICs expression varied by molecular subtype, e.g., higher HHLA2/B7x RNA in EGFR mutant vs wild-type (WT) NSCLC. Moreover, PD-L1 IHC+ NSCLC and cases with high PD-L1 RNA and low B7H3 RNA were a/w longer rwOS, OSpem, and TOT; high HHLA2 RNA was a/w longer rwOS and OSpem with similar TOT; and low B7x RNA expression was a/w longer OSpem and TOT with similar rwOS (Table). Conclusions: Both PD-L1 IHC+ NSCLC and cases with high PD-L1 RNA expression are a/w a more inflammatory TIME, and superior survival and IO outcomes. Moreover, consistent with our prior HHLA2 IHC work (PMIDs: 27553831, 29374053), HHLA2 RNA expression was significantly higher in PD-L1 IHC- and EGFR mutant cases. These findings support the potential utility of transcriptomics along with protein expression for assessing novel predictive biomarkers for IO. Furthermore, the distinct expression profiles of AICs identified in our study may represent key subtypes mediating IO response in WT and EGFR mutant NSCLC. [Table: see text]

Phase 1/2 trial of the XPO1 inhibitor selinexor in combination with docetaxel in previously treated, advanced KRAS mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

8597 Background: KRAS mutant NSCLC remains a therapeutic challenge. Although KRAS G12C inhibitors are now approved for cases harboring that specific mutation, their efficacy is modest and the G12C variant accounts for only 40% of KRAS mutations in NSCLC. To date, there are no approved targeted therapies for non-G12C KRAS mutant NSCLC. Selective inhibitors of nuclear export (SINE) modulate cancer cell biology by retaining certain proteins—such as tumor suppressors—within the nucleus, where they remain physiologically active. The XPO1 inhibitor selinexor demonstrated efficacyinpreclinicalNSCLC models harboring various KRAS mutations. Methods: In this 3 + 3 dose-escalation phase 1/2 trial, patients with previously treated advanced KRAS mutant NSCLC received selinexor (dosed orally weekly) plus docetaxel 75 mg/m2 IV every three weeks (NCT03095612). Prior treatment with KRAS G12C inhibitors was permitted. Results: Among 40 enrolled patients, median age was 66 years, 22 (55%) were female, and 34 (85%) were white. KRAS mutation types included G12C (28%), G12V (23%), G12D (20%), G12A (13%), G12R (5%), G13C (5%), and one case each of G12S, G13D, Q61L, and K117N. Patients had received a median of 2 prior lines of therapy (range 1-4). The maximum tolerated dose of selinexor was 60 mg PO weekly combined with docetaxel. The most common adverse events (AE) were nausea (73%, Gr ≥3 8%), fatigue (70%, Gr ≥3 5%), neutropenia (65%, Gr ≥3 60%), diarrhea (58%, Gr ≥3 10%), anorexia (50%, Gr ≥3 0%), and vomiting (45%, Gr ≥3 5%). Of 32 patients evaluable for efficacy, 7 (22%) had partial response (PR) and 18 (56%) had stable disease (SD) as best response. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 4.1 months (95% CI, 2.9-5 months); median overall survival (OS) was 7.1 months (95% CI, 4.5-13.7 months). Clinical outcomes did not differ significantly among KRAS mutation types. However, TP53co-mutations (48%) were associated with significantly worse outcomes: disease control rate (PR + SD) 27% vs 92% ( P=0.006); median PFS 1.8 vs 7.4 months ( P<0.001); median OS 5.8 vs 17 months ( P=0.006). Additional biomarker studies are ongoing. Conclusions: Selinexor plus docetaxel is tolerated with multi-agent supportive care. The combination shows moderate efficacy across KRAS mutation types, with promising activity in TP53 wild type cases. Clinical trial information: NCT03095612 .

High-dose almonertinib in treatment-naïve EGFR-mutated NSCLC with CNS metastases: Efficacy and biomarker analysis.

2007 Background: Central nervous system (CNS) metastases is inevitable for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The pre-specified analysis of the FLAURA and other phase III studies has unveiled encouraging results in patients with CNS metastasis. Nevertheless, the availability of limited biomarkers poses a challenge for the early prediction of clinical effects. Methods: We launched a prospective, open-label, single-arm clinical trial across multiple centers (ACHIEVE). Participants, all diagnosed with EGFR-mutated NSCLC with CNS metastases, received first line treatment with high dose Almonertinib through once-daily oral administration, with each dose being 165 mg. The primary endpoints focused on progression free survival (PFS). Concurrently, we gathered baseline and end-of-first-cycle plasma samples, subjecting them to a comprehensive 520 gene-based sequencing analysis. Results: A total of 63 patients were selected and enrolled between Jul 6,2021 and Aug 31,2022. The median follow-up time, until Nov 30,2023, was 538 days. The confirmed Overall Response Rate (ORR) was 88.9% (56/63), while 42.9% (27/63) of patients progressed, with a median PFS of 17.71 months (11.96-NE). Moreover, a notable 88.9% (56/63) of intracranial lesions achieved either a Complete Response (CR) in 21 cases (33.3%) or a Partial Response (PR) in 35 cases (55.6%). To guide and enhance clinical strategy selection, we conducted a comprehensive biomarker evaluation using cell-free DNA (cfDNA) sequencing. Of the 60 baseline plasmas that passed quality control, 81.7% (46/60) were identified as having at least one somatic mutation (ctDNA+). No significant differences were observed between ctDNA+ and ctDNA- groups in terms of ORR (p = 0.33), intracranial ORR (p = 0.499), PFS (p = 0.363, HR = 1.75), and intracranial PFS (p = 0.562, HR = 1.56). Furthermore, we developed a novel algorithm named MedSR (Median Short cfDNA fragment Ratio) based on cfDNA fragment distribution patterns to quantify ctDNA amount. Notably, higher baseline MedSR values (above the median) predicted significantly poorer PFS (p = 0.001, HR = 0.22) and intracranial PFS (p = 0.067, HR = 0.35), demonstrating superior efficacy compared to traditional cfDNA biomarkers like maxAF. On Cycle 2, those achieving ctDNA clearance in C2D1, regardless of their ctDNA status on baseline, exhibited significantly improved PFS (p < 0.001, HR = 4.63) and intracranial PFS (p = 0.001, HR = 5.71). Conclusions: High dose Almonertinib exhibited promising efficacy and maintained tolerable safety as a first-line therapy in EGFR-mutated NSCLC with CNS metastases. The novel MedSR score demonstrated potential value in predicting the efficacy of TKI treatment. Clinical trial information: NCT04808752 .

Novel genome-wide significant germline genetic variants associated with venous thrombo-embolism (VTE) and arterial embolism (ATE) risk in patients with ALK and ROS1 fusion non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

12092 Background: In a recent meta-analysis, non small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) with ALK or ROS1 fusions had higher rates of VTE compared to KRAS or EGFR mutant NSCLC, and were associated with increased ATE risk, particularly around diagnosis. The underlying mechanisms of how these somatic fusions affect thrombosis remain unclear. We examined clinico-demographic and germline genetic factors associated with VTE and ATE in NSCLC patients with ALK/ROS1 fusions in this first comprehensive genome wide association analysis (GWAS). Methods: In this prospective cohort, germline DNA from whole blood was obtained from 150 patients with ALK fusions and 32 with ROS1 fusions at Princess Margaret Cancer Centre (recruited 2014- 2023). Clinico-demographic, treatment and outcome data were collected from electronic medical charts. Overall survival (OS) by VTE or ATE status was assessed via Cox regression, treating ATE and VTE as time-varying covariates. Genotyping utilized the Infinium Global Screening Array (v3.0 Illumina); quality-control removed 3 patients from final analysis. Using linear regression, outcomes were weighted; no VTE/ATE events (0), one VTE/ATE event (1), or multiple ATE/VTEs (>2). Global significance was set at p < 5 x10-8 and adjusted for age, sex, body mass index (BMI), and ethnic/population stratification (top 3 principal components). Results: There were 97 females (54%) and 82 males (46%), mean age was 57.4 years, 70% had stage 4 disease, 96% adenocarcinoma; 35% experienced VTE/ATE at any time; 13% had 2+ VTE/ATE events. For those with VTE, 32 scored 1, 22 scored 2 and 6 scored 3 on Khorana score. Higher BMI was a significant risk factor for VTE/ATE (adjusted odds ratio 1.59 per 5-unit increase, p=0.01). Shorter OS was observed in patients with VTE (Hazard ratio (HR)=3.15, p<0.001) and ATE (HR=2.51, p=0.036), compared to those without. Two novel GWAS gene peaks on the Manhattan plot (previously not reported to be associated with VTE/ATE) had globally significant associations with risk of VTE/ATE: at Chromosome 6q15 (intergenic region between RNGTT and LOC101928936; 5/10 top variants with top risk-allele p=3.594E-09) and at 15p22 ( TLN2 gene; 2/10 top variants p=1.095E-08). TLN2 is a cytoskeletal protein involved in the assembly of actin filaments and linkages with extracellular matrices. Additional identified variants potentially associated with VTE/ATE in ALK/ROS1 fusion patients were found in: CTBP2, NALCN, WDR7, PAX7, ZNF385D, SORBS2, and CSMD1. Conclusions: Two novel globally significant variants, associated with VTE/ATE, are unique to patients with ALK/ROS1 fusion NSCLC. If validated, these biomarkers may help identify ALK/ROS1 patients who are at highest risk of VTE/ATE who may benefit from prophylactic anticoagulation. Further investigation and clinical evaluation are warranted.

Effect of tumor burden on survival in patients with stage IV EGFR-mutant NSCLC receiving osimertinib monotherapy.

8611 Background: Osimertinib (osi) has traditionally been given as monotherapy for patients (pts) with stage IV EGFR-mutant (EGFRm) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), although acquired resistance remains a challenge. Recent data from the FLAURA2 study demonstrated a progression free survival (PFS) benefit of approximately 9 months (mos) when osi is combined with platinum-pemetrexed chemotherapy. Despite this improvement, combination therapy is associated with higher rates of adverse events, making it challenging to decide which pts should receive TKI + chemo vs TKI monotherapy. Tumor burden (TB) in pts with stage IV EGFRm NSCLC, which may be associated with risk of developing resistant clones on TKI monotherapy, and its association with clinical outcomes has not been examined. Methods: Retrospective, single institution manual case review of pts who received osi monotherapy. Primary objectives were PFS (i.e., oligoprogression requiring local therapy, disease progression (PD) with osi discontinuation, or death) and overall survival (OS) related to extent of TB. Those who did not receive osi monotherapy for stage IV EGFRm NSCLC or discontinued osi for reasons other than PD were excluded. Demographics, comorbidities, performance status, PD-L1 expression, histology, EGFRm subtype, prior TKI use, total number of visceral tumors (TTn), and total number/sites of metastatic disease (MDn) collected for analysis. Extent of TB categorized by TTn (1-4, 5-9, ≥10) and MDn (1-2, 3-4, ≥5). PFS and OS estimated by Kaplan-Meier method and compared using log-rank test. Results: 325 pts eligible for analysis. Median follow-up time was 22.7 mos. Median PFS (mPFS) for the overall cohort was 16.3 mos (95% CI; 13.7 - 18.9) and median OS (mOS) was 31.1 mos (95% CI; 27.4 - 39.3). Pts with a TTn of 1-4 had significantly better mPFS compared to those with a TTn of 5-9 and ≥10 (mPFS: 21.5 vs 16.3 vs 13.4 mos, respectively; P = 0.001). Pts with a TTn ≥10 had significantly worse mOS compared to those with a TTn of 5-9 and 1-4 (23.7 vs 35.1 vs 57.7 mos, respectively; P < 0.0001). Similarly, pts with a MDn of 1-2 had significantly better mPFS and mOS compared to those with a MDn of 3-4 and ≥5 (mPFS: 21.6 vs 11.4 vs 9.0 mos, respectively [P < 0.0001]; mOS: 44.3 vs 20.8 vs 22.4, respectively [P < 0.0001]). Pts with liver and bone mets had significantly worse mPFS and mOS, whereas those with lung and brain mets had worse mOS without affecting PFS. Conclusions: The extent of baseline TB, categorized by TTn and MDn, impacts both PFS and OS in pts with stage IV EGFRm NSCLC treated with osi monotherapy. Pts with “low-TB” (i.e., TTn 1-4, MDn 1-2) appear to have a survival advantage compared to those with “intermediate- or high-TB” (i.e., TTn 5-9 and ≥10, MDn 3-4 and ≥5) and may derive less benefit from the addition of chemotherapy to osi. Prospective, matched real-world treatment cohorts are warranted to optimize treatment strategies for this patient population.

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.

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.

REZILIENT2: Phase 2 study of zipalertinib in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with exon 20 insertions (ex20ins) and other uncommon epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations.

TPS8670 Background: Patients with NSCLC harboring uncommon EGFR mutations, including ex20ins, have limited treatment options. Zipalertinib (CLN-081/TAS6417) is an oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor of EGFR with broad activity against EGFRmutations (including ex20ins) and increased selectivity for ex20ins versus wild-type EGFR. Zipalertinib has shown preclinical activity against a wide spectrum of EGFR ex20ins mutations and other uncommon EGFR mutations. In a phase 1/2a study (REZILIENT1), encouraging antitumor activity and an acceptable safety profile were observed in heavily pretreated patients with EGFRex20ins–mutant NSCLC, leading to ‘Breakthrough Therapy’ designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The aim of REZILIENT2 is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of zipalertinib in patients with NSCLC harboring EGFRex20ins and other uncommon single or compound EGFR mutations, including patients with brain metastases and leptomeningeal disease (LMD). Methods: In this global, phase 2b, open-label, multicohort study (NCT05967689), adult patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC will be assigned to one of four cohorts depending on prior treatment and type of EGFR mutation: A) patients with EGFR ex20ins mutations who have progressed on or after first-line platinum-based chemotherapy and prior therapy targeting ex20ins (administered together or separately) for advanced disease; B) patients with EGFR ex20ins mutations who have not received prior treatment for advanced disease; C) patients with ex20ins or other uncommon single or compound EGFR mutations and active central nervous system metastases (including LMD) who may or may not have received prior treatment for advanced disease; and D) patients harboring other uncommon non-ex20ins single or compound EGFR mutations who have progressed on or after standard systemic therapy. Patients will receive zipalertinib at a starting dose of 100 mg orally twice daily, which will continue on a 21-day cycle until progression, unacceptable toxicity, or other discontinuation criteria are met. The primary endpoint is investigator-assessed objective response rate per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours, version 1.1. Secondary endpoints include disease control rate, duration of response, progression-free survival, overall survival, intracranial efficacy per Response Assessment in Neuro-Oncology Brain Metastases (cohort C), safety and tolerability, and pharmacokinetics. Estimated enrollment is 40 patients per cohort (total 160), with potential expansion to ~100 patients per cohort if predefined threshold criteria of efficacy are met. Enrollment began in July 2023. Clinical trial information: NCT05967689 .

Metabolic profile and therapeutic vulnerabilities of multi-omic characterization ofKRAS/STK11/KEAP1 co-mutant non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

8576 Background: KRAS-mutant NSCLC with co-occurring loss-of-function mutations in STK11 and KEAP1(KSK) are remarkably aggressive and poorly responsive to chemo- and immunotherapy. Novel therapeutic strategies are urgently needed to improve outcomes for patients with KRAS/STK11/KEAP1co-mutant NSCLC (KSK). We interrogated the transcriptomic landscape using a large real-world dataset of NSCLC to identify therapeutic vulnerabilities that may help guide treatment selections in KSK. Methods: KRAS mutant NSCLC clinical samples (N=7210) were tested with NextGen Sequencing of DNA (592-gene panel or whole exome sequencing) and RNA (whole transcriptome sequencing) at Caris Life Sciences (Phoenix, AZ). Specimens were stratified into KRASMUT/STK11MUT/KEAP1MUT (KSK; N=698), KRASMUT/STK11MUT/KEAP1WT (KS; N=786), KRASMUT/STK11WT/KEAP1MUT (KK; N=466), and KRASMUT/STK11WT/KEAP1WT (K; N=4536). Real-world overall survival (OS) data was obtained from insurance claims and investigated using Kaplan-Meier estimates. Additionally, an in vitro CRISPR screen, bulk RNA sequencing, and phospho-kinase arrays were performed in KRAS/STK11/KEAP1 co-mutant, single mutant, and wild-type cell lines to better characterize these models. Results: KEAP1mutations (median OS: KK=7.83 months, KSK=7.23 months) were strongly associated with poor OS compared to STK11 mutations (median OS: KS=17.6months). Pathways significantly upregulated in KSK clinical samples included fatty acid metabolism and redox pathways. When compared to single mutant or wild-type conditions, KSK clinical samples had significant up-regulation of genes involved in ferroptosis evasion and metabolism like SLC7A11(KSK/KK=1.28, KSK/KS=4.82, KSK/K=10.24; all q<0.01) and SCD1(KSK/KS=1.19, KSK/K=1.24; both q<0.01). To confirm our clinical findings, CRISPR/Cas9-based genetic screening identified SCD1, and SLC7A11 master regulators of fatty acid metabolism and ferroptosis, as a potential therapeutic target in the KSK cell lines. SCD1 inhibition augmented the effect of ferroptosis inducer, erastin. Targeting SCD1 led to global metabolomic changes in KSK cells, including key pathways involved in lipid and glucose metabolismas compared to single mutants or wild-type cells. Finally, pharmacological inhibition of SCD1 caused significant tumor regression and augmented the anti-tumor response of SLC7A11 inhibitor, imidazole ketone erastin (IKE), in KSK syngeneic mouse models. Conclusions: Our study is the first to highlight the importance of the ferroptosis regulators, SCD1-SLC7A11,in regulating unique metabolic and ferroptosis evasion pathways in KSK patient tumor and preclinical models. The study data furthers the understanding of ferroptosis in NSCLCand the potential to translate SCD1 inhibitors and ferroptosis inducers in KRAS NSCLC clinical trials.

The Design for a Phase II, Randomized, Multicenter Study of CtDNA-Guided Treatment With Furmonertinib Combined Therapy or Furmonertinib Alone for Untreated Advanced EGFR Mutant Non–small-cell Lung Cancer Patients: The FOCUS-C Study

BackgroundThird-generation epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) have significant antitumor activity to advanced non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with classic EGFR mutations. However, EGFR-TKI monotherapy shows poor efficacy in patients whose circulating tumor cell DNA (ctDNA) of EGFR mutations cannot be rapidly cleared. Materials and MethodsAs a third-generation TKI, furmonertinib has shown superior antitumor activity and minor toxicity. The FOCUS-C study is a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial (NCT05334277) to explore the efficacy and safety of furmonertinib plus pemetrexed-platinum doublet chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab versus furmonertinib monotherapy in untreated advanced EGFR mutant NSCLC patients without EGFR clearance after the induction therapy of furmonertinib. Patients with EGFR clearance will still receive furmonertinib as Arm A. Patients without ctDNA clearance will be randomized in a 2:2:1 ratio as Arm B1 (furmonertinib), Arm B2 (furmonertinib combined with carboplatin and pemetrexed for 4 cycles, and then furmonertinib and pemetrexed as maintenance therapy) and Arm B3 (Arm B2 regimen plus bevacizumab). The primary endpoint is progression-free survival (PFS) in Arm B2/B1. Secondary endpoints include PFS in Arm B3/B1, PFS in Arm A/B1, PFS in Arm B3/B2, objective response and disease control rate, overall survival and safety in all Arms. Exploratory endpoints are focused on the efficacy based on plasma NGS at different timepoints. ConclusionThis study will evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of furmonertinib plus carboplatin and pemetrexed with or without bevacizumab verses furmonertinib alone in untreated patients with advanced EGFR mutant NSCLC without EGFR clearance.

The ASCENT Trial: a phase 2 study of induction and consolidation afatinib and chemoradiation with or without surgery in stage III EGFR-mutant NSCLC.

The role of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in early-stage and metastatic oncogene-driven non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is established, but it remains unknown how best to integrate TKIs with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT) in locally advanced disease. The phase 2 ASCENT trial assessed the efficacy and safety of afatinib and cCRT with or without surgery in locally advanced epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant NSCLC. Adults ≥18 years with histologically confirmed stage III (AJCC 7th edition) NSCLC with activating EGFR mutations were enrolled at Mass General and Dana-Farber/Brigham Cancer Centers, Boston, Massachusetts. Patients received induction afatinib 40 mg daily for 2 months, then cisplatin 75 mg/m2 and pemetrexed 500 mg/m2 IV every 3 weeks during RT (definitive or neoadjuvant dosing). Patients with resectable disease underwent surgery. All patients were offered consolidation afatinib for 2 years. The primary endpoint was the objective response rate (ORR) to induction TKI. Secondary endpoints were safety, conversion to operability, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). Analyses were performed on the intention-to-treat population. Nineteen patients (median age 56 years; 74% female) were enrolled. ORR to induction afatinib was 63%. Seventeen patients received cCRT; 2/9 previously unresectable became resectable. Ten underwent surgery; 6 had a major or complete pathological response. Thirteen received consolidation afatinib. With a median follow-up of 5.0 years, median PFS and OS were 2.6 (95% CI, 1.4-3.1) and 5.8 years (2.9-NR), respectively. Sixteen recurred or died; 6 recurrences were isolated to CNS. The median time to progression after stopping consolidation TKI was 2.9 months (95% CI, 1.1-7.2). Four developed grade 2 pneumonitis. There were no treatment-related deaths. We explored the efficacy of combining TKI with cCRT in oncogene-driven NSCLC. Induction TKI did not compromise subsequent receipt of multimodality therapy. PFS was promising, but the prevalence of CNS-only recurrences and rapid progression after TKI discontinuation speak to unmet needs in measuring and eradicating micrometastatic disease.

PARP inhibitor synthetic lethality in ATM biallelic mutant cancer cell lines is associated with BRCA1/2 and RAD51 downregulation.

Ataxia telangiectasia-mutated (ATM) kinase is a central regulator of the DNA damage response (DDR) signaling pathway, and its function is critical for the maintenance of genomic stability in cells that coordinate a network of cellular processes, including DNA replication, DNA repair, and cell cycle progression. ATM is frequently mutated in human cancers, and approximately 3% of lung cancers have biallelic mutations in ATM, i.e., including 3.5% of lung adenocarcinomas (LUAD) and 1.4% of lung squamous cell carcinomas (LUSC). We investigated the potential of targeting the DDR pathway in lung cancer as a potential therapeutic approach. In this context, we examined whether ATM loss is synthetically lethal with niraparib monotherapy. This exploration involved the use of hATM knockout (KO) isogenic cell lines containing hATM homozygous (-/-) and heterozygous (+/-) generated via CRISPR/Cas9 gene knockout technology in DLD-1, a human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line. Subsequently, we extended our investigation to non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patient derived xenograft (PDX) models for further validation of poly ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitor (PARPi) synthetic lethality in ATM mutant NSCLC models. Here, we demonstared that biallelic hATM deletion (-/-) in DLD-1 impairs homologous recombination (HR) repair function and sensitizes cells to the PARPi, niraparib. Niraparib also caused significant tumor regression in one-third of the NSCLC PDX models harboring deleterious biallelic ATM mutations. Loss of hATM (-/-) was concomitantly associated with low BRCA1 and BRCA2 protein expression in both the hATM (-/-) DLD-1 cell line and PARPi-sensitive ATM mutant NSCLC PDX models, suggesting a downstream effect on the impairment of HR-mediated DNA checkpoint signaling. Further analysis revealed that loss of ATM led to inhibition of phosphorylation of MRN (Mre11-Rad50-NBS1) complex proteins, which are required for ATM-mediated downstream phosphorylation of p53, BRCA1, and CHK2. Taken together, our findings highlight that the synthetic lethality of niraparib in ATM-deficient tumors can be regulated through a subsequent effect on the modulation of BRCA1/2 expression and its effect on HR function.

Current status and breakthroughs in treating advanced non-small cell lung cancer with EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations.

Recently, targeted therapy and immunotherapy have emerged as effective treatment options for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This progress has been facilitated by the rapid development of diagnostic and therapeutic technologies and the continuous research and development of new drugs, leading to a new era in precision medicine for NSCLC. This is a breakthrough for patients with common mutations in the human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene in NSCLC. Consequently, the use of targeted drugs has significantly improved survival. Nevertheless, certain rare genetic mutations are referred to as EGFR exon 20 insertion (ex20ins) mutations, which differ in structure from conventional EGFR gene mutations, namely, exon 19 deletion mutations (19-Del) and exon 21 point mutations. Owing to their distinct structural characteristics, patients harboring these EGFR ex20ins mutations are unresponsive to traditional tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy. This particular group of patients did not fall within the scope of their applicability. However, the activating A763_Y764insFQEA mutation elicits a more pronounced response than mutations in the near and far regions of the C-helix immediately following it and should, therefore, be treated differently. Currently, there is a lack of effective treatments for EGFR ex20ins mutations NSCLC. The efficacy of chemotherapy has been relatively favorable, whereas the effectiveness of immunotherapy remains ambiguous owing to inadequate clinical data. In addition, the efficacy of the first- and second-generation targeted drugs remains limited. However, third-generation and novel targeted drugs have proven to be effective. Although novel EGFR-TKIs are expected to treat EGFR ex20ins mutations in patients with NSCLC, they face many challenges. The main focus of this review is on emerging therapies that target NSCLC with EGFR ex20ins and highlight major ongoing clinical trials while also providing an overview of the associated challenges and research advancements in this area.

Therapeutic drug monitoring of osimertinib in EGFR mutant non-small cell lung cancer by dried blood spot and plasma collection: A pilot study.

Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) has led to significant improvements in individualized medical care, although its implementation in oncology has been limited to date. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are a group of therapies for which TDM has been suggested. Osimertinib is one such therapy used in the treatment of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation-driven lung cancer. Herein, we describe a prospective pilot study involving 21 patients on osimertinib primarily as a preliminary evaluation of drug levels in a real-world setting. Concentrations of the drug and its primary metabolites were measured with a validated liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) assay across serial timepoints. As part of this study, inter-individual variability by dose and ethnicity as well as intra-individual variability across timepoints are explored. Furthermore, we attempted to validate dried blood spot (DBS)-based quantitation as an accurate alternative to plasma quantitation. Successful quantitation of osimertinib and primary metabolites was achieved for our subjects. Compound plasma levels were highly correlated to DBS levels. There was no significant difference in concentrations with ethnicity or dosing or intra-individual variability across timepoints. As such, we demonstrate that TDM for osimertinib is practical for future trials. We also validated the use of DBS as an alternative to conventional quantitation for exploration of TDM for osimertinib in larger trials and for other targeted therapies.

Comparison of the efficacy of first‑/second‑generation EGFR‑tyrosine kinase inhibitors and osimertinib for EGFR‑mutant lung cancer with negative or low PD‑L1 expression.

In epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with negative or low programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) expression, the acquisition rate of the T790M mutation is higher after treatment with first-/second-generation EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and the progression-free survival (PFS) is longer in patients treated with osimertinib. The present study compared the clinical course after the initiation of each EGFR-TKI monotherapy in patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC with negative or low PD-L1 expression. Data of patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC with negative or low PD-L1 expression who were treated with EGFR-TKI monotherapy were retrieved and retrospectively analyzed. Between June 2013 and November 2023, 26 and 29 patients were treated with first-/second-generation EGFR-TKIs and osimertinib, respectively. The PFS time was longer in patients treated with osimertinib (median, 22.5 months) than in those treated with first-/second-generation EGFR-TKIs (median, 12.9 months). However, the EGFR-TKI treatment duration, defined as the PFS for osimertinib, or the sum of the PFS for first-/second-generation EGFR-TKIs and sequential osimertinib therapy after the acquisition of the T790M mutation, was similar between patients treated with first-/second-generation EGFR-TKIs (median, 23.0 months) and osimertinib (median, 22.5 months). The Cox proportional hazard model suggested that there was no significant difference in the EGFR-TKI treatment duration between patients treated with first-/second-generation EGFR-TKIs and patients treated with osimertinib (hazard ratio, 1.31, 95% CI, 0.55-3.13). In conclusion, first-/second-generation EGFR-TKIs and osimertinib were associated with a similar EGFR-TKI treatment duration in patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC with negative or low PD-L1 expression. The findings suggested that both treatments are promising for this population.

Targeting KRASG12C in Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer: Current Standards and Developments.

Among the most common molecular alterations detected in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are mutations in Kristen Rat Sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS). KRAS mutant NSCLC is a heterogenous group of diseases, different from other oncogene-driven tumors in terms of biology and response to therapies. Despite efforts to develop drugs aimed at inhibiting KRAS or its signaling pathways, KRAS had remained undruggable for decades. The discovery of a small pocket in the binding switch II region of KRASG12C has revolutionized the treatment of KRASG12C-mutated NSCLC patients. Sotorasib and adagrasib, direct KRASG12C inhibitors, have been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and other regulatory agencies for patients with previously treated KRASG12C-mutated NSCLC, and these advances have become practice changing. However, first-line treatment in KRASG12C-mutated NSCLC does not differ from NSCLC without actionable driver genomic alterations. Treatment with KRASG12C inhibitors is not curative and patients develop progressive disease, so understanding associated mechanisms of drug resistance is key. New KRASG12C inhibitors and several combination therapy strategies, including with immune checkpoint inhibitors, are being studied in clinical trials. The aim of this review is to explore the clinical impact of KRAS, and outline different treatment approaches, focusing on the novel treatment of KRASG12C-mutated NSCLC.

Abstract CT248: Trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) in Chinese patients (pts) with previously treated HER2 mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC): primary analysis from the Phase 2 DESTINY-Lung05 (DL-05) trial

Abstract Background: In China, non-approved therapies are used for pts with HER2 (ERBB2) mutant (HER2m) NSCLC. In DESTINY-Lung02 (DL-02), T-DXd 5.4 mg/kg showed clinical benefit with an acceptable and manageable safety profile in pts with pretreated HER2m metastatic NSCLC. DL-02 did not include any Chinese pts. We report the primary analysis of T-DXd in Chinese pts with pretreated HER2m metastatic NSCLC. Methods: In this open-label, single-arm, Phase 2 trial (NCT05246514), Chinese pts with HER2m (locally or centrally confirmed activating HER2 exon 19 or 20 mutation) metastatic non-squamous NSCLC with disease progression on or after ≥1 prior anticancer therapy (no prior HER2-directed) received T-DXd 5.4 mg/kg IV once every 3 weeks. The primary endpoint was confirmed objective response rate (ORR) by independent central review (ICR). Secondary endpoints included investigator-assessed (INV) confirmed ORR; ICR and INV duration of response, disease control rate, progression-free survival, and safety. Results: At data cutoff (September 23, 2023), 72 pts with HER2m NSCLC received T-DXd 5.4 mg/kg (full analysis set). Median T-DXd exposure was 7.9 (0.7-13.5) months. Pt characteristics and efficacy data are in the table. 71 pts had drug-related adverse events (AEs), of which 51.4% were grade (G) ≥3. Most common G≥3 AEs by grouped term: neutropenia (26.4%), thrombocytopenia (18.1%), and leukopenia (11.1%). Drug-related AEs leading to discontinuations occurred in 2 (2.8%) pts. 17 (23.6%) pts had serious AEs, with no INV-adjudicated G5. Centrally adjudicated drug-related ILD/pneumonitis occurred in 7 (9.7%) pts (n=6 G2; n=1 G5). Conclusion: T-DXd 5.4 mg/kg demonstrated clinically meaningful and durable responses and a manageable safety profile in Chinese pts with HER2m metastatic NSCLC. Results were consistent with DL-02 and the known safety profile of T-DXd, supporting its use in this pt population. TABLE 1.

Abstract LB266: AMG510-mediated inactivation of BCL-xL protein promotes Gasdermin-E-dependent pyroptosis in KRAS-G12C mutant non-small cell lung cancer

Abstract Introduction: Studies have shown that molecular targeted therapy can mediate Gasdermin-E (GSDME) dependent pyroptosis. However, GSDME expression is suppressed in many mutated patients, including those with KRAS-G12C-mutated non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The efficacy of AMG510 against KRAS-G12C inhibition (KRAS-G12Ci) is constrained by tumor recurrence. Pyroptosis is widely involved in the occurrence and development of tumors. However, the role and molecular mechanism of AMG510 in pyroptosis have not been well identified. Here, we demonstrate that inactivation of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family members during KRAS-G12Ci treatment enhances pyroptosis, which then promotes the sensitivity of AMG510 in NSCLC. Methods: We assessed pyroptosis using live cells imaging, LDH release assays, ELISA, Western blotting, and flow cytometry. In vitro assays were used to investigate the function of GSDME. Co-culture between peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and KRAS-G12C mutant lung cancer cell lines explored the anti-tumor immunity of cytotoxic T lymphocytes affected by knockdown of GSDME. The molecular mechanism was determined using bulk RNA sequencing, molecular cloning technology, and Western blotting. Results: We demonstrated that KRAS G12Ci treatment promotes cleavage of GSDME, release of high mobility group protein B1 (HMGB1), and LDH, markers of pyroptotic cell death. Additionally, GSDME was significantly downregulated in KRAS-mutated NSCLC compared with patients of KRAS wild type in TCGA cohort, while significantly upregulated after AMG510 treatment and downregulated after AMG510 resistance in vitro assay. We identified that KRAS-G12Ci resulted in the inactivation of BCL-xL, leading to caspase-3-dependent cleavage of gasdermin E. Conversely, amplification of BCL-xL downregulated the expression of GSDME, therefore suppressing the process of pyroptosis. GSDME knockdown in KRAS-G12C mutant lung cancer cell lines showed defective HMGB1 release, reduced caspase-3 viability, and decreased granzyme B and IFN-γ secretion by CD8+ T cells in response to KRAS-G12Ci, and more frequent tumor cell growth. Conclusion: Our findings indicate that GSDME-dependent pyroptosis is a critical determinant of KRAS-G12C-targeted inhibitor AMG510, and through the modulation exerted by the Bcl-2 family protein BCL-xL upon GSDME. These findings suggest that activation of GSDME may provide an effective strategy to sensitize cancer cells to KRAS-G12Ci treatment.
