e21595 Background: Distinguishing multiple primary lung cancer (MPLC) and intrapulmonary metastasis (IPM) remains a common diagnostic dilemma but critical for developing a therapeutic strategy. Methods: In this study, we analyse genomic features of 584 tissue samples from 258 NSCLC patients with > 1 surgically-resected tumor. NGS was performed using panels of 1021/59 genes. Results: Among 80 patients with definite diagnosis, 23 patients (46 tumors) were diagnosed with IPM. And 57 patients (145 tumors) were MPLC, consisting of 53 synchronous and 3 metachronous tumor pairs. Among 23 IPM tumor pairs, we identified at least one shared somatic mutation. By contrast, 93%(53/57) MPLC tumor pairs exhibited entirely unique mutation profiles in each tumor. Of 57 MPLCs, 4(7%) had no driver alteration ( EGFR, KRAS, BRAF, ALK, ERBB2, MET Exon 14). 9(16%) had a driver in only one of the tumors. In the remaining 44 MPLCs, 40 had unique driver mutation in each tumor. 50%(20/40) had distinct EGFR mutations, the most common combination was L858R and delins in exon 19. Specifically, 8(20%) patients resided ≥3 unique driver mutations simultaneously. This observation indicated that multiple lesions in the same individual can be driven by distinct molecular events. In contrast, 21 available IPM tumor pairs shared the same driver mutation. Pathogenic germline mutations were also analysed. Two were found in 2 MPLCs, involving PLAB2 and BLM, which were both null variants. While there were no pathogenic germline mutations found in IPMs. Regarding the MSI status, all samples from either MPLCs and IPMs displayed MSS, unexpectedly. To further verify the findings above, the remaining 393 samples with uncertain diagnosis were classified into group M (no shared mutation, 218 samples /97 patients) and I (≥1 shared mutation, 175 samples/81 patients). We find the similarity results among all available patients, driver mutation profiles exhibited completely unique and multiple in group M and fully consistent in group I. Conclusions: Taken together, our analyses indicated that the genomic heterogeneity of multifocal NSCLC may be a potential strategy for differentiating IPM and MPLC. This may hold implications for prioritizing therapeutic strategies.

1552 Background: The frequencies of known driver mutation in lung adenocarcinoma from patients in the United States have been reported by the NCI’s Lung Cancer Mutation Consortium (LCMC), indicating driver mutations were detected in 54% (280/516) of tumors. In this report, mutations found: EGFR 17%, KRAS 22%, HER2 0.6%, PIK3CA 1.2%, BRAF 2%, MET amplification 0.6%, MAP2K1 0.4%, NRAS 0.4%, AKT 0%, ALK rearrangements 7%. However little is known about ethnic difference of driver mutation frequencies and correlations between driver mutations and histological subtypes in lung adenocarcinoma. Methods: Known driver mutations in tumors from 97 Japanese patients with lung adenocarcinoma who underwent surgical resection between 1999 and 2003 in National Cancer Center Hospital East were analyzed by next-generation sequencing and confirmed by Sanger sequencing. Correlations between driver mutations and histological subtypes were also assessed. Results: Driver mutations were detected in 72% of tumors. Mutations found: EGFR 57%, KRAS9%, HER2 2%, PIK3CA 2%, BRAF 1%, MET amplification 1%, MAP2K1 0%, NRAS 0%, AKT 0%. Due to the limitation of rearrangement detection by exon-sequencing, ALK rearrangements were not analyzed. Compared with the report by LCMC, the frequency of EGFR mutations was high and that of KRAS mutations was low in the present study. All mutations were mutually exclusive. The number of predominant histological subtypes of tumors harbored EGFR mutations were papillary 28, acinar 3, solid 5, lepidic 19. That with KRAS mutations showed papillary 2, acinar 2, solid 2, lepidic 3, and HER2 mutations showed papillary 1 and acinar 1. Two tumors harbored PIK3CA mutations showed both histological acinar pattern. Each of BRAF mutation and MET amplification showed lepidic and papillary pattern, respectively. Conclusions: It was suggested that there should be ethnic difference of driver mutation frequencies in lung adenocarcinoma between Asian and non-Asian patients, although the details of ethnic distribution included in LCMC study has not been opened. In addition, each driver mutations did not correspond to specific histological subtypes of lung adenocarcinoma.

1572 Background: PLELC, a rare and distinct type of primary lung cancer, is characterized by Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. Histologically, it resembles undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinomas (NPC). Only a few hundred cases have been reported since its discovery. Due to the extreme rareness, its genomic landscape remains elusive. Methods: Tissue samples of 27 PLELC patients (13 males and 14 females) with various stages (Ib to IV) were subjected to targeted sequencing using a panel consisting of 520 cancer-related genes, spanning 1.6Mb of human genome. Results: Collectively, we identified 184 somatic mutations spanning 109 genes, including 107 SNVs, 12 insertions or deletions (INDELs) and 65 copy-number amplifications (CNAs). Approximately, 50% of patients had CNAs. One patient had no mutation detected from this panel. Except for 2 patients, 1 with HER2 amplification and another with KRAS mutation, no other classic NSCLC driver genes were detected. The most frequently mutated genes were CCND1, TP53, DAXX and NF kBIA, occurring in 30%, 26%, 22% and 22% of patients, respectively. Interestingly, 78% (21/27) patients had mutations in epigenetic regulators. Of the 184 mutations identified, 51 occurred in epigenetics-related genes. Pathway analysis also revealed an enrichment of genes participating in chromatin remodeling and organization. Next, we compared the genomic profile of PLELC with lung adenocarcinoma and EBV positive NPC. The frequency of TP53 mutations was significantly higher in lung adenocarcinoma (68% vs 26%, p = 0.021). Comparing to NPC, PLELC had significantly more mutations in epigenetic regulators. TMB analysis revealed a median TMB of 1.6/Mb, significantly lowered than lung adenocarcinomas (p < 0.01). We also assessed PD-L1expression and revealed that 67% had an overexpression of PD-L1. Interestingly, TP53-mutant patients were more likely to associated low PD-L1 expression (p < 0.01). Conclusions: In this study, we elucidated a distinct genomic landscape associated with PLELC with no classic NSCLC driver mutation but an enrichment of mutations in epigenetic regulators. The observation of high expression of PD-L1 and lack of canonical druggable driver mutation raises the potential of immunocheckpoint blockade therapy for PLELC.

e20668 Background: Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths globally. In stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), identification of a tumor driver mutation is critical, since it tailors treatment. We aimed to analyze clinical outcomes according to molecular profiling in patients (pts) with stage IV NSCLC. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, we enrolled 57 pts with stage IV NSCLC treated at a public hospital in Southern Brazil between 2016 and 2018. Results: Median follow-up was 20.3 months, 53% were men, mean age was 65 years, 86% had smoked, 84% had de novo metastatic NSCLC and 96% had non-squamous carcinoma. Regarding molecular profiling, somatic mutations in KRAS, EGFR and BRAF were identified in 33%, 16% and 4% of pts, respectively. None of the pts had ALK mutations, and in 47% no identifiable driver mutation was found. In the EGFR-mutated subgroup, 67% had a deletion of exon 19, 22% had the exon 21 L858R mutation and 11% had exon 20 mutations. Palliative systemic therapy (PST) was delivered to 60% of the pts. Two or more lines of PST were delivered to 23%. The main reason for upfront best supportive care was ECOG PS 3-4 (poor). In the subgroup of pts with sensitizing EGFR mutations (8 pts), 75% received Gefitinib, the only anti-EGFR drug available in our public health system; the other pts died before recognition of the mutation. Median Progression Free-Survival was 6.3 months overall, 10.3 months for EGFR-mutated pts, 7.6 months for KRAS-mutated, 7.5 months for BRAF-mutated, and 5.2 months for pts with no mutation identified. Median Overall Survival (OS) was 7.7 months overall, 13.2 months for EGFR-mutated pts, 7.4 months for KRAS-mutated, 12.9 months for BRAF-mutated, and 5.3 months for pts with no mutation identified. In the Cox regression multivariate analysis, poor PS (HR 3.80, P < 0.0001) and second-line PST (HR 0.23, P = 0.002) were independent predictors of OS. No driver mutations were predictors of OS, although we did find a tendency towards better OS in pts with EGFR mutations and worse OS in pts with KRAS mutations or no identifiable mutation. Conclusions: In this cohort, genotyping results did not predict survival outcomes. This is probably due to the small number of pts studied, and data should be reanalyzed in larger cohorts.

The decellularized bovine pericardium and its potential use as a natural scaffold is a promising approach in the field of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. The reaction of the host toward decellularized scaffolds depends on their biocompatibility, which should be satisfied being before applied in clinical use. Purpose: to evaluate the biocompatibility of the extracellular matrices, which were decellularized by trypsin enzyme and anionic sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) detergent. Material and methods. Pericardial sacs were acquired from 12-18 months’ age bulls. Tissue decellularization was performed by using 0.25 % Trypsin solution and 1 % ionic SDS for group I and 0.1 % SDS for group II samples. The implantation was performed on Wistar rats. The tissue samples were stained with hematoxylin & eosin, Congo red and Masson's Trichrome for histological analysis. Results. In group 1 in 3 months after subcutaneous implantation in rats we noticed the inflammation in surrounding tissue and degradation of the implant. Under the same conditions in animals of group 2 implant replacement with growing immature connective tissue was noted. Bio-implant of this group did not degrade, moreover it's integrated to the tissues of experimental rats. Conclusion. Our results showed that decellularized bovine pericardium by 0.1 % SDS can become an alternative material for tissue engineering and has the potential for further use in human surgery.

AbstractGermline or somatic driver mutations linked to specific phenotypic features are identified in approximately 70% of all catecholamine-producing pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs). Mutations leading to stabilization of hypoxia-inducible factor 2α (HIF2α) and downstream pseudohypoxic signaling are associated with a higher risk of metastatic disease. Patients with metastatic PPGLs have a variable prognosis and treatment options are limited. In most patients with PPGLs, germline mutations lead to the stabilization of HIF2α. Mutations in HIF2α itself are associated with adrenal pheochromocytomas and/or extra-adrenal paragangliomas and about 30% of these patients develop metastatic disease; nevertheless, the frequency of these specific mutations is low (1.6–6.2%). Generally, mutations that lead to stabilization of HIF2α result in distinct catecholamine phenotype through blockade of glucocorticoid-mediated induction of phenylethanolamine N-methyltransferase, leading to the formation of tumors that lack epinephrine. HIF2α, among other factors, also contributes importantly to the initiation of a motile and invasive phenotype. Specifically, the expression of HIF2α supports a neuroendocrine-to-mesenchymal transition and the associated invasion-metastasis cascade, which includes the formation of pseudopodia to facilitate penetration into adjacent vasculature. The HIF2α-mediated expression of adhesion and extracellular matrix genes also promotes the establishment of PPGL cells in distant tissues. The involvement of HIF2α in tumorigenesis and in multiple steps of invasion-metastasis cascade underscores the therapeutic relevance of targeting HIF2α signaling pathways in PPGLs. However, due to emerging resistance to current HIF2α inhibitors that target HIF2α binding to specific partners, alternative HIF2α signaling pathways and downstream actions should also be considered for therapeutic intervention.

Purpose To determine the proportion of lung adenocarcinomas from East Asian never-smokers who harbor known oncogenic driver mutations. Patients and Methods In this surgical series, 52 resected lung adenocarcinomas from never-smokers (< 100 cigarettes in a lifetime) at a single institution (Fudan University, Shanghai, China) were analyzed concurrently for mutations in EGFR, KRAS, NRAS, HRAS, HER2, BRAF, ALK, PIK3CA, TP53 and LKB1. Results Forty-one tumors harbored EGFR mutations, three harbored EML4-ALK fusions, two harbored HER2 insertions, and one harbored a KRAS mutation. All mutations were mutually exclusive. Thus, 90% (47 of 52; 95% CI, 0.7896 to 0.9625) of lung adenocarcinomas from never-smokers were found to harbor well-known oncogenic mutations in just four genes. No BRAF, NRAS, HRAS, or LKB1 mutations were detected, while 15 had TP53 mutations. Four tumors contained PIK3CA mutations, always together with EGFR mutations. Conclusion To our knowledge, this study represents the first comprehensive and concurrent analysis of major recurrent oncogenic mutations found in a large cohort of lung adenocarcinomas from East Asian never-smokers. Since drugs are now available that target mutant EGFR, HER2, and ALK, respectively, this result indicates that prospective mutation testing in these patients should successfully assign a targeted therapy in the majority of cases.

Invasive Mucinous Adenocarcinoma

Lung invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma (IMA) is a unique histological subtype with different clinical and pathological characteristics. Despite prior genomic investigations on lung IMA, little is known about the genetic features and prognosis-related biomarkers in Chinese surgically resected lung IMA. IMA showed a distinct genetic profile, with more diversified driver mutations and co-occurrence of tumor drivers/suppressors than non-IMA. From non-IMA to mixed-IMA to pure-IMA, the frequency of EGFR (72.0 percent vs. 40.0 percent vs. 23.1 percent, p=0.002) and ALK (undetected vs. 20.0 percent vs. 26.9%, p=0.015) changes exhibited a trend of steady decline and rise, respectively. KRAS mutations were more common in pure-IMA than in mixed-IMA, however the difference was statistically insignificant (23.1 percent vs. 4.0 percent, p=0.10). Pure-IMA had a lower rate of TP53 mutation than mixed-IMA and non-IMA (23.1 percent vs. 52.0 percent vs. 56.0 percent, p=0.03). Furthermore, IMA had fewer arm-level amplifications (p=0.04) and more arm-level deletions (p=0.004) than non-IMA, with a steady drop in amplification and rise in deletion frequency from non-IMA to mixed-IMA to pure-IMA, respectively. Patients with EGFR mutations (mDFS=30.3 vs. 16.0 months, HR=0.19, P=0.027) and PI3K pathway mutations (mDFS=36.0 vs. 16.0 months, HR=0.12, P=0.023) had longer DFS than patients with poorly differentiated tumors (mDFS=14.1 vs. 28.0 months, HR=3.75, p=0.037) or KRAS mutations (mDFS=13 KRAS mutations, PI3K pathway changes, and tumor differentiation status were all shown to be independent predictors with statistically significant effects on IMA patients' clinical outcomes in multivariate analysis. Our research shed light on the genomics of Chinese lung IMA that had been surgically removed. In IMA patients with stage III illness, we also discovered many genetic characteristics that might be used as indicators for postoperative recurrence.

8528 Background: The use of durvalumab after chemoradiation in locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients significantly improves overall survival. However, it is unclear whether this benefit applies to all genetic subtypes of lung cancer. We hypothesize that patients with driver mutation NSCLC may derive less benefit from consolidation durvalumab. Methods: Using the Genomic Marker-Guided Therapy Initiative (GEMINI) database at MD Anderson, we identified 134 patients who were treated with chemoradiation followed by durvalumab for NSCLC. We segregated patients with driver mutations to targetable (EGFR, ALK translocation, ROS1 fusion, MET exon 14 skipping, RET fusion, and/or BRAF) (N = 24) and those driven by canonical KRAS mutations (N = 26). The rest (N = 84) had none of these mutations. We gathered demographic, treatment, and outcome data and compared progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) using the Kaplan-Meier method. We used multivariate regression analysis to account for demographic and treatment variables. Results: For our cohort, median age at diagnosis was 64.8, 52% were female (n = 70), and median follow up was 1.5 years. 86% of patients have a history of smoking (n = 115). 21% had squamous cell histology (n = 28). 2 patients had stage IIA disease, 6 had stage IIB, 48 had stage IIIA, 56 had stage IIIB, 13 had stage IIIC, and 9 had stage IV. 73 patients had progression after durvalumab and 37 patients died. Patients with driver mutations had significantly worse median PFS compared to those without driver mutations (8.9 mo vs 26.6 mo; HR 2.62 p < 0.001). Patients with KRAS mutations had particularly poor PFS (Median 7.9 mo, HR 3.34, p < 0.001), while patients with targetable driver mutations trended to worse PFS (Median 14.5 mo, HR 1.96, p = 0.056). The median OS for the cohort was 4.8 yrs with no significant differences based on driver mutation status. On multivariate analysis, only driver mutation status was associated with PFS, but not OS. For patients with first progression, we found the targetable driver group to have significantly improved time to second objective progression (PFS2) compared to the KRAS (HR 0.28, p = 0.011) or non-mutated group (HR 0.38, p = 0.025). All patients in the targetable driver group received targeted therapy after first progression. Conclusions: Our results suggest that patients with driver mutations have worse PFS compared to patients without these mutations after chemoradiation. However, patients with targetable oncogene driver mutations have significantly improved prognosis after initial progression compared to the other groups, likely due to targeted therapy, suggesting that these therapies, including novel approaches towards KRAS mutants, should be further explored in this setting.

Abstract Introduction There are a substantial number of lung cancer patients with negative mutations in Indonesia. This type of cancer is deemed to be the major contributor of lung cancer patient’s death. However, reseaerch related to therapy using vinorelbine combined with platinum-based compounds is still scarce in Indonesia. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy and tolerability between vinorelbine and carboplatin with vinorelbin and cisplatin in stage III-IV epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations-negative non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods The participants were divided into two groups—group I(vinorelbine–carboplatin) and group II (vinorelbine–cisplatin). The participants were assessed based on several measurement criteria. Not only Eq-5D was performed, but the body weight and response evaluation criteria for solid tumors (RECIST) were also examined. The participants received chemotherapy for four cycles (1 cycle = 21 days). Results The quality of life was considered stable in 60% of group I and 60% of group II (p=0.255). In both groups, 46.67% of participants had an increased body weight, while the other 20.00% was stable (p = 1.000). In terms of RECIST evaluation after the second cycle, 80.00% of group I and 86.67% of group II were considered to have a stable disease, with 20% of group I and none of group II had partial response (p = 0.027). However, after the fourth cycle, there were no significant difference between the groups (p = 0.734). Conclusion In EGFR mutation-negative NSCLC patients, the combination of vinorelbine and carboplatin showed comparable outcomes to vinorelbine and cisplatin chemotherapy with no significant differences.

8542 Background: The NEOSTAR study compared nivolumab (N) vs. nivolumab plus ipilimumab (NI) with major pathological response (MPR; ≤10% viable tumor) as primary outcome. We report updated rates of treatment failure (TF), including in patients whose tumors harbored genomic aberrations, and outcomes of additional treatments. Methods: Patients (pts) with stage I-IIIA resectable NSCLC (AJCC 7th) were randomized to either neoadjuvant N or NI followed by surgery (n = 44). TF was defined as radiographic and/or biopsy-proven recurrence from primary lung cancer and/or death (treatment or cancer-related). Additional systemic therapy at recurrence included immuno-oncology (IO)-based therapy (IO or chemo-IO), targeted therapy (TT), or chemotherapy. Disease control rate (DCR) was defined as the proportion of pts with radiographic objective responses and stable disease at first restaging. Cox proportional hazards model was used to associate baseline characteristics and time to TF. Results: A total of 44 randomized pts were evaluated, the median follow-up was 35 months (mts) as of February 4, 2021. Among the 12 TF pts (12/44, 27%), 42% (5/12) did not undergo surgery on trial, 9 (9/44, 20%) experienced recurrence and 6 (6/44, 14%) died (1 non-cancer-related, 5 cancer-related). TF was less likely in smokers vs. never smokers (hazard ratio = 0.20, 95% confidence interval = 0.06-0.65, p = 0.007). Among pts with pathological specimen resected on trial, MPR was achieved in 40% (12/30) of non-TF pts. Only 1 (1/7, 14%) TF pt achieved MPR, but died of a non-cancer related cause. TF-free survival rate at 2 years was 92% in MPR and 78% in non-MPR pts. Eight (8/9, 89%) pts had tumors with canonical oncodriver aberrations (5 EGFR mutations, 1 with STK11+ KRAS Q61H mutations, 1 ALK translocation and 1 RET fusions). Of the 9 recurrences, 44% (4/9) were treated with IO therapy, and all 7 pts with targetable aberrations were treated with TT (3 after retreatment with IO therapies). Of the 4 pts retreated with IO therapy, duration between end of neoadjuvant and retreatment were 20, 17, 23, and 19 mts. Duration from retreatment until progression (PD) were 1, 1, and 2 mts, respectively. Last pt was treated without PD for 2 mts but switched to TT due to discovery of genomic aberration. IO retreatment achieved 25% DCR (1/4). In comparison, the DCR for TT treated pts was 71% (5/7, p = 0.242). Median time to treatment was 21 mts, and median time to PD was not reached. Among 32 non-TF pts, 12 had genomic analysis and 7 aberrations were found in 6 pts (2 STK11, 2 ERBB2, 1 STK11 + 1 KRAS G12C, and 1 KRAS G12C mutation). Conclusions: A 27% TF rate was observed after neoadjuvant IO. TF was less likely to occur in smokers and MPR pts, and 42% of TF pts did not undergo curative-intent surgery on trial. Genomic aberrations were common in pts with recurrence (89%), and treatment with TT achieved 71% DCR vs. 25% DCR with IO-based retreatment. Clinical trial information: NCT: 03158129.
