Candidate mechanisms of acquired resistance to first-line osimertinib in EGFR-mutated advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

ABSTRACT: Osimertinib, an epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI), potently and selectively inhibits EGFR-TKI-sensitizing and EGFR T790M resistance mutations. In the Phase III FLAURA study (NCT02296125), first-line osimertinib improved outcomes vs comparator EGFR-TKIs in EGFRm advanced non-small cell lung cancer. This analysis identifies acquired resistance mechanisms to first-line osimertinib. Next-generation sequencing assesses circulating-tumor DNA from paired plasma samples (baseline and disease progression/treatment discontinuation) in patients with baseline EGFRm. No EGFR T790M-mediated acquired resistance are observed; most frequent resistance mechanisms are MET amplification (n = 17; 16%) and EGFR C797S mutations (n = 7; 6%). Future research investigating non-genetic acquired resistance mechanisms is warranted.

Project description:ImportanceThe survival of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene mutations has improved substantially in the last decade with the development of targeted tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Osimertinib, a third-generation TKI that is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of patients who develop EGFR T790M mutations, has recently shown improved clinical outcomes compared with gefitinib and erlotinib for treatment-naive patients.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to assess the cost-effectiveness of osimertinib for the first-line treatment of patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC.Design, setting, and participantsFor this cost-effectiveness analysis, we extracted individual patient data from the FLAURA randomized clinical trial and used findings of our earlier meta-analysis to develop a decision-analytic model and determine the cost-effectiveness of osimertinib (AZD9291) compared with first- and second-generation EGFR-TKIs over a 10-year time horizon. All direct costs were based on US and Brazilian payer perspectives.Main outcomes and measuresThe main outcome of this study was the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) expressed as cost per quality-adjusted life-year (QALY) gained by using osimertinib compared with first- or second-generation EGFR-TKIs in previously untreated EGFR-mutated NSCLC.ResultsIn the base case using the data as reported in the FLAURA trial, the incremental QALY for osimertinib was 0.594 compared with the first- and second-generation EGFR-TKIs. In the United States, the osimertinib ICERs were $226 527 vs erlotinib, $231 123 vs gefitinib, and $219 874 vs afatinib. In Brazil, the ICERs were $162 329, $180 804, and $175 432, respectively. The overall survival (95% CI) reported in the FLAURA trial (hazard ratio, 0.63; 95% CI, 0.45-0.88) had the strongest association with the ICER (ranging from $84 342 to $859 771). Osimertinib price adjustments to the FLAURA trial data improved cost-effectiveness. For example, a discount of 10% on osimertinib acquisition cost was associated with a 20% decreased ICER compared with the base case ICER, and a discount of 20% on osimertinib acquisition cost was associated with a 40% decreased ICER compared with the base case ICER.Conclusions and relevanceAt current costs, by World Health Organization cost-effectiveness threshold criteria, osimertinib is not cost-effective for first-line therapy of EGFR-mutated NSCLC in either the United States or Brazil.

Project description:IntroductionPreferred first-line treatment for patients with metastatic EGFR-mutant lung cancer is osimertinib, yet it is not known whether patient outcomes may be improved by identifying and intervening on molecular markers associated with therapeutic resistance.MethodsAll patients with metastatic EGFR-mutant lung cancer treated with first-line osimertinib at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (n = 327) were identified. Available pretreatment and postprogression tumor samples underwent targeted gene panel sequencing and mutational signature analysis using SigMA algorithm. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.ResultsUsing multivariate analysis, baseline atypical EGFR (median PFS = 5.8 mo, p < 0.001) and concurrent TP53/RB1 alterations (median PFS = 10.5 mo, p = 0.015) were associated with shorter PFS on first-line osimertinib. Of 95 patients with postprogression biopsies, acquired resistance mechanisms were identified in 52% (off-target, n = 24; histologic transformation, n = 14; on-target, n = 12), with MET amplification (n = 9), small cell lung transformation (n = 7), and acquired EGFR amplification (n = 7), the most frequently identified mechanisms. Although there was no difference in postprogression survival on the basis of identified resistance (p = 0.07), patients with subsequent second-line therapy tailored to postprogression biopsy results had improved postprogression survival (hazard ratio = 0.09, p = 0.006). The paired postprogression tumors had higher tumor mutational burden (p = 0.008) and further dominant APOBEC mutational signatures (p = 0.07) compared with the pretreatment samples.ConclusionsPatients with EGFR-mutant lung cancer treated with first-line osimertinib have improved survival with treatment adaptation on the basis of identified mechanisms of resistance at time of progression using tissue-based genomic analysis. Further survival gains may be achieved using risk-based treatment adaptation of pretreatment genomic alterations.

Project description:BackgroundIn the global FLAURA study, first-line osimertinib, a third-generation irreversible tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) versus comparator EGFR TKIs in patients with EGFR mutation-positive (EGFRm) advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).ObjectiveThe FLAURA China study assessed first-line osimertinib in Chinese patients with EGFRm advanced NSCLC (NCT02296125).MethodsFLAURA China was a double-blind, randomized, phase III study. Adults from mainland China with previously untreated EGFRm (Exon 19 deletion or L858R) advanced NSCLC were enrolled in the global study or a China-only study under the same protocol; 136 patients were randomized to osimertinib (80 mg once daily [od]; n = 71) or comparator EGFR TKI (gefitinib or erlotinib; all sites selected gefitinib 250 mg od; n = 65). Patients were randomized and allocated to treatment groups by a central computer system. Treatment continued until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. The primary endpoint was investigator-assessed PFS; OS was a secondary endpoint.ResultsAll 136 randomized patients were analyzed. Osimertinib extended median PFS by 8.0 months versus comparator EGFR TKI (17.8 vs. 9.8 months; hazard ratio [HR] 0.56; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.37-0.85). Median OS was 33.1 months in the osimertinib group versus 25.7 months in the comparator group (HR 0.85; 95% CI 0.56-1.29). At 3 years, 20% of patients on osimertinib and 8% on the comparator remained on randomized treatment. Grade 3 or higher adverse events (AEs) were reported in 54 and 28% of patients in the osimertinib and comparator groups, respectively, driven by increased local reporting of laboratory- and disease-related AEs. No new safety signals were identified.ConclusionsFirst-line osimertinib treatment resulted in a clinically meaningful PFS and OS benefit versus comparator EGFR TKI in Chinese patients with EGFRm advanced NSCLC. Safety data were consistent with the known safety profile of osimertinib.Clinical trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov NCT02296125, registered 20 November 2014.

Project description:BackgroundThe FLAURA trial demonstrated improved overall survival (OS) with first-line osimertinib for patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We studied the efficacy and safety of osimertinib in a cohort treated during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.MethodsPatients diagnosed with EGFR-mutated advanced NSCLC between 11 March 2020 to 31 December 2021 who received first-line osimertinib in British Columbia, Canada were identified retrospectively. Kaplan-Meier curves of OS and progression-free survival (PFS) from the start of osimertinib were plotted. The associations of baseline characteristics with PFS, and development of pneumonitis or dose reductions due to toxicity with OS were evaluated with hazard ratios estimated using univariable and multivariable Cox models.ResultsThe cohort comprised 231 individuals. 58.7% of patients with de novo advanced NSCLC were initially diagnosed after presentation to the Emergency Room. At osimertinib initiation, 31.6% were aged ≥75 years and 45.5% had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) ≥2. Median PFS and OS were 18.0 months [95% confidence interval (CI): 16.1-26.2] and 25.4 months (95% CI: 20.3-not reached), respectively. On multivariable analysis, age ≥75 years (vs. <75), ECOG PS 2/3 (vs. 0/1), ECOG PS 4 (vs. 0/1), current smokers (vs. never smokers), programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression ≥50% (vs. <1%), and L858R mutation (vs. exon 19 deletion) were associated with shorter PFS. Among 110 patients who progressed, 33.6% received subsequent therapy. A proportion of 16.5% of the cohort developed grade ≥3 adverse events. Pneumonitis from osimertinib (3.9% incidence) was weakly associated with shorter OS (hazard ratio: 2.59, 95% CI: 0.94-7.12, P=0.066); dose reductions were not associated with worse OS. 10.8% of patients developed COVID-19.ConclusionsIn a cohort receiving first-line osimertinib during the COVID-19 pandemic, ECOG PS ≥2 was observed in nearly half of patients at treatment initiation contributing to a median OS shorter than in FLAURA. The incidence of severe adverse events was low and dose reduction for drug toxicity did not impact OS. Identifying and reducing barriers to the diagnosis of NSCLC during the COVID-19 pandemic are required.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough the clinical application of osimertinib, a third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI), has been a new step forward in the first-line treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), an increasing number of patients with progression on osimertinib represents a great challenge clinically. The patterns of resistance mechanisms and subsequent treatment strategies after first-line osimertinib resistance are not well established.MethodsBetween January 1, 2016 and October 31, 2020, a consecutive of 56 EGFR-mutant lung cancer patients treated with osimertinib as first-line therapy at Daping Hospital (Chongqing, China) were retrospective screened. The samples of pre-osimertinib and osimertinib-resistance were all detected by next-generation sequencing (NGS) panels. Statistical analyses were carried out using SPSS 23.0 software. Survival analyses were performed using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using a log-rank test between groups.ResultsAmong 47 patients with osimertinib effectiveness analysis, the median progression free survival (mPFS) was 15.4 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 12.2-24.9 months), and median overall survival (mOS) was 35.5 months (95% CI: 23.9 months -NA). A total of 21 patients underwent repeated NGS tests upon osimertinib resistance. MET amplification was the most common resistance mechanism (6/21, 28.6%), followed by C797S mutation (5/21, 23.8%). A total of 15 patients received subsequent treatments, with mPFS of 7.3 months (95% CI 5.0 months -NA). Among them, 7 patients with EGFR C797 S or/and MET amplification received subsequent second-line targeted therapy, achieving mPFS of 7.3 months (95% CI 4.5 months -NA). Of note, 3 patients received immunotherapy as second- or third-line treatment after osimertinib resistance, achieving median clinical benefit of 37.3 months.ConclusionsMET amplification and C797S mutation are main resistance mechanisms, which could be targeted by crizotinib and gefitinib, respectively. More than 50% patients could receive subsequent anticancer targetable therapies after first-line osimertinib resistance. Immunotherapy may also be an acceptable choice after osimertinib resistance.
