e20603 Background: EGFR-mutant non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients inevitably develop drug resistance when treated with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Clonal and clinical analyses of genetic alterations at baseline and progressive disease (PD), as well as differences between acquired T790M and T790M-negative patients in drug-resistant mechanisms, have not been systematically studied. Methods: We performed targeted sequencing of pre-treatment and PD tumor samples from 54 EGFR-mutant NSCLC patients. Correlation between genomic features and patients’ progression-free survival (PFS) was evaluated. Ten additional patients were sequenced using whole exome sequencing to infer the clonal evolution patterns. Results: We observed new pathways limiting EGFR-inhibitor response, including NOTCH1/ STK11 co-deletion, and TGF-beta alterations. Besides acquired T790M mutation, chromosomal instability (CIN) related genes including AURKA and TP53 alterations were the most frequently acquired events. CIN significantly increased with TKI treatment in T790M-negative patients. Transcriptional regulators including HNF1A, ATRX and NKX2-1 acquired alterations were enriched in T790M-positive patients, and diverse oncogenic pathway alterations were more common in T790M-negative patients. T790M-positive patients had improved PFS compared to T790M-negative patients. We identified subgroups within T790M-positive or T790M-negative patients with distinct PFS. Interestingly, we observed a death-and-birth process of RTK-RAS mutations during TKI treatment, and baseline and acquired RTK-RAS mutations had opposite effects on PFS. Clonal evolution analysis indicated progression of T790M-positive patients depends on competition between T790M and non-T790M resistant subclones. Conclusions: T790M-positive and T790M-negative patients display divergent landscape of acquired somatic events. Subgroups of patients were identified within T790M-positive and T790M-negative patients with distinct survival. Our results point the importance of clonal competition between T790M and non-T790M resistant subclones.

Osimertinib is a mutant-selective EGFR inhibitor that is effective against non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in patients with the EGFR-T790M mutation, who are resistant to EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs). However, the factors affecting response to osimertinib treatment are unknown. In this retrospective study, 27 NSCLC patients with the EGFR-T790M mutation were enrolled at five institutions in Japan. Among several parameters tested, the progression-free survival (PFS) associated with the initial EGFR-TKIs was positively correlated with the PFS after osimertinib treatment (p = 0.021). The median PFS following osimertinib treatment and the overall survival (OS) were longer in patients who responded to osimertinib than in those who did not (17.7 months versus 3.5 months, p = 0.009 and 24.2 months versus 13.5 months, p = 0.021, respectively). A multivariate analysis demonstrated that the PFS with initial EGFR-TKIs was significantly related to the PFS with osimertinib treatment (p = 0.035), whereas osimertinib response was significantly related to the PFS and OS with osimertinib treatment (p = 0.016 and p = 0.006, respectively). Our retrospective observations indicate that PFS following the initial EGFR-TKI treatment and the response rate to osimertinib might be promising predictors for effective osimertinib treatment in NSCLC patients with the EGFR-T790M mutation.

11067 Background: Major obstacles limiting the clinical success of EGFR TKI therapy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients are heterogeneity and variability in the initial anti-tumor response to treatment. The underlying molecular basis for this heterogeneity has not been explored in patients immediately after initiation of therapy. Methods: We conducted CT-guided core needle biopsies immediately prior to erlotinib treatment initiation and at 6 days post erlotinib initiation in a patient with histologically confirmed NSCLC harboring an established activating mutation in EGFR. DNA from the paired frozen biopsies and matched normal tissue was analyzed by whole exome sequencing and RNA from the biopsies was analyzed by whole transcriptome sequencing. High-resolution CT images were obtained at the time of each biopsy to compare the degree of molecular and radiographic response observed. Results: Two established activating somatic mutations were identified in EGFR (p.G719A and p. R776H). Selective depletion of each EGFR mutant allele, but not the EGFR wild type allele, was observed upon erlotinib treatment. Gene expression analysis of the paired transcriptomes revealed that erlotinib treatment resulted in significant upregulation of proapoptotic genes including BAD, BAX, BID, CASP3 and growth inhibitory genes including CDKN1A, GADD45B, GADD45G and downregulation of growth-promoting genes including CCNB1 and CCND3. Several unexpected and novel molecular biomarkers were identified by transcriptome analysis and the complete dataset will be presented. High-resolution CT scans revealed no interval radiographic changes in the target lesion and no clinical complications were encountered. Conclusions: This study is the first reported integrated genomic analysis of EGFR-mutant NSCLC immediately following EGFR TKI initiation. We documented the feasibility, safety and utility of this strategy to establish initial drug efficacy at the molecular level prior to any radiographic evidence of response. Additional, serial integrated genomic analysis is ongoing in the index patient and others on therapy to enhance the management of NSCLC patients on targeted therapy.

e21691 Background: Anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibody has been approved as first- or second-line therapy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients and modified the management of patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC. However, anti-PD-1 treatment shows less effective in patients with EGFR mutation than in those without driver gene mutation. To determine the activity of anti-PD-1 antibody in EGFR mutant NSCLC, we retrospectively evaluated response patterns among EGFR mutant NSCLC patients. Methods: We identified 58 patients with EGFR mutation who were treated with anti-PD-1 monotherapy or anti-PD-1 antibody combined with chemotherapy from March 2018 to December 2019. All of patients have received more than one treatment regimen including EGFR-TKI treatment. Objective response rates (ORR) were assessed using RECIST v1.1. Results: A total of 58 patients including 53 cases of lung adenocarcinoma, 4 cases of squamous cell carcinoma and 1 case of adenosquamous carcinoma were analyzed. Among them 26 patients received nivolumab treatment, 9 patients with pembrolizumab treatment, 9 patients with sintilimab treatment, 8 patients with JS001 treatment and 6 patients with camrelizumab treatment. Seven patients received anti-PD-1 monotherapy and the other 51 patients received anti-PD-1 combined chemotherapy. The main chemotherapeutic drugs contain docetaxel, pemetrexed, paclitaxel and paclitaxel-albumin. ORR was observed in 6 out of 58 (10%) patients. The disease control rate was 50% (29/58). The median PFS was 2.82 months. All six patients who achieved PR were received anti-PD-1 combined chemotherapy. Four patients died during treatment with anti-PD-1 therapy and we can’t confirm if these were due to cancer progress or immune related tumor hyperprogression. The adverse events were immune related pneumonia (two cases with grade 2 and one case with grade 3) and immune related hepatitis (one case with grade 2). Conclusions: Anti-PD-1 antibody combined chemotherapy seems showed moderate effect on NSCLC patients with EGFR mutation who have received anti-EGFR therapy.

e20613 Background: Avitinib is an oral, potent, irreversible epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor selective for T790M resistance mutations. We report the safety, the intracranial/extracranial efficacy, and the blood brain barrier (BBB) penetration rate of Avitinib in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) patients with EGFR T790m mutation. The data come from Peking Union Medical College hospital-a single center of the Phase I, open-label, multicenter study (NCT02330367). Methods: NSCLC Patients with acquired EGFR T790m (+) were enrolled. Patients were orally administered with dose escalating from 150 mg to 300 mg twice daily for 28-continuous-day cycles until disease progression. Blood (2mL) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples (2ml) were collected for concentration analysis on day 29 in available patients with brain metastases (BM). Tumor response was assessed on day 29 and then every 8 weeks. Results: Sixteen patients were included. Nine patients had asymptomatic BM. The most frequent adverse events were the elevated hepatic transaminases (10/16, 62.5%) and diarrhea (5/16, 31.3%), Most were mild and reversible. 9 Patients (56.3%) achieved Partial Response (PR), 6 (37.5%) achieved Stable Disease (SD). Median Progress Free Survival (PFS) was 253 days (95%CI: 154.8-339.2). Of the 8 evaluable BM patients, intracranial PFS were shorter than extracranial in only two patients. The blood and CSF analysis of 6 BM patients showed the BBB penetration rate were 0.046%-0.146% (Table). Conclusions: Avitinib is well tolerated and efficacious in EGFR T790m(+) NSCLC patients. Its concentration in CSF is low, and the penetrability of BBB is weak. But it still showed a good control of BM. Further studies are proceeding. Clinical trial information: NCT02330367.
