A Lung Cancer Patient Harboring a Rare Oncogenic EGFR Exon 20 V786M Mutation Responded to a Third-Generation Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor: Case Report and Review of the Literature.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are effective treatments for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with activating EGFR mutations. There are many uncommon and rare mutations in the EGFR gene. The efficacy of the EGFR-TKIs is largely unknown for cancers harboring uncommon or rare EGFR mutations.

Case presentation

A 69-year-old woman was diagnosed with adenocarcinoma cT4N2M1c, stage IVB. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) confirmed a rare EGFR V786M mutation. During chemotherapy, immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI), and anti-angiogenic treatment, no radiological response was observed. Subsequent third-generation EGFR TKI showed a remarkable therapeutic effect. Structural prediction revealed that the V786M mutation induces conformational change at the dimer interface, without altering the ATP binding to the EGFR tyrosine kinase domain (TKD). Consistently, docking simulations indicated that the affinity of ATP to the V786M mutant was not disturbed, which explained the TKI sensitivity.

Conclusions

Our data confirmed the activating role on EGFR V786M mutation. Together with structural predictions and clinical evidence for activity of TKIs against EGFR V786M mutations, these findings warrant further investigation.

Project description:IntroductionMechanisms of resistance to EGFR exon 20 insertion mutation active inhibitors have not been extensively studied in either robust preclinical models or patient-derived rebiopsy specimens. We sought to characterize on-target resistance mutations identified in EGFR exon 20 insertion-mutated lung cancers treated with mobocertinib or poziotinib and evaluate whether these mutations would or would not have cross-resistance to next-generation inhibitors zipalertinib, furmonertinib, and sunvozertinib.MethodsWe identified mechanisms of resistance to EGFR exon 20 insertion mutation active inhibitors and then used preclinical models of EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations (A767_V769dupASV, D770_N771insSVD, V773_C774insH) plus common EGFR mutants to probe inhibitors in the absence/presence of EGFR-T790M or EGFR-C797S.ResultsMobocertinib had a favorable therapeutic window in relation to EGFR wild type for EGFR exon 20 insertion mutants, but the addition of EGFR-T790M or EGFR-C797S negated the observed window. Zipalertinib had a favorable therapeutic window for cells driven by EGFR-A767_V769dupASV or EGFR-D770_N771insSVD in the presence or absence of EGFR-T790M. Furmonertinib and sunvozertinib had the most favorable therapeutic windows in the presence or absence of EGFR-T790M in all cells tested. EGFR-C797S in cis to all EGFR mutations evaluated generated dependent cells that were resistant to the covalent EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors mobocertinib, zipalertinib, furmonertinib, sunvozertinib, poziotinib, and osimertinib.ConclusionsThis report highlights that poziotinib and mobocertinib are susceptible to on-target resistance mediated by EGFR-T790M or -C797S in the background of the most prevalent EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations. Furmonertinib, sunvozertinib, and to a less extent zipalertinib can overcome EGFR-T790M compound mutants, whereas EGFR-C797S leads to covalent inhibitor cross-resistance-robust data that support the limitations of mobocertinib and should further spawn the development of next-generation covalent and reversible EGFR exon 20 insertion mutation active inhibitors with favorable therapeutic windows that are less vulnerable to on-target resistance.

Project description:Background: The EGFR exon 20 insertions (ex20ins) D770_N771insSVD and V769_D770insASV are most frequent in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and are associated with intrinsic resistance to currently approved EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). A763_Y764insFQEA and D770delinsGY, respectively, account for 3%-8% and 2.0%-4.8% of EGFR ex20ins in NSCLC and are associated with a more favorable response to EGFR-specific TKIs as per case reports. The aim of this study was to elucidate the molecular structures of these mutants and their binding affinities to diverse EGFR TKIs and compare the clinical outcomes in NSCLC patients harboring these mutations. Methods: A real-world cohort study was conducted to evaluate and compare the clinical outcomes of EGFR TKIs among NSCLC patients with different EGFR ex20ins mutants in response to EGFR TKIs. The structures of A763_Y764insFQEA and D770delinsGY were also analyzed and drug binding simulations were performed. Results: With a median follow-up of 24.0 months, the first-line objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and median progression-free survival (PFS) were, respectively, 0 (0/16), 50.0% (8/16), and 2.07 months (95%CI, 0-6.25) in patients harboring D770_N771insSVD and V769_D770insASV variants and 33.3% (4/12), 83.3% (10/12), and 9.97 months (95%CI, 4.75-15.19) in patients with A763_Y764insFQEA and D770delinsGY variants. There was a significant difference between the PFS of these two subgroups (median, 9.97 vs.2.07 months, HR = 0.33, 95%CI, 0.13-0.85, p = 0.02). Similarly, the PFS was significantly longer after second-line treatment with EGFR TKIs in patients harboring A763_Y764insFQEA and D770delinsGY compared to those with other insertions (median, 6.77 vs.2.23 months, HR = 0.14, p < 0.001). Computational simulations indicated that A763_Y764insFQEA and D770delinsGY mutants were structurally similar to wild-type EGFR. In contrast, the C-helix and phosphate-binding loop of D770_N771insSVD and V769_D770insASV had shifted into the drug-binding pocket, resulting in significant steric hindrance and a lack of affinity for the currently approved EGFR inhibitors. Conclusion: NSCLC patients harboring A763_Y764insFQEA and D770delinsGY insertions of EGFR are responsive to the currently approved EGFR TKIs as opposed to patients with the D770_N771insSVD and V769_D770insASV variants. Therefore, A763_Y764insFQEA and D770delinsGY should be classified as active mutations among heterogeneous EGFR ex20ins subtypes and the carriers can be treated with the suitable EGFR TKIs.
