Abstract

Background

Osimertinib, a 3rd-generation EGFR-TKI, is the preferred 1L treatment for EGFRm advanced NSCLC; however, resistance eventually develops. ELIOS (NCT03239340) characterised resistance mechanisms to 1L osimertinib with a primary objective comparing paired tumour tissue biopsies from baseline (BL) and after PD. We report exploratory analyses of concordance between tissue and plasma testing from BL and post-PD samples and PFS by detected plasma EGFRm at BL and by plasma EGFRm clearance at 8 wks post-treatment.

Methods

Pts with EGFR-TKI naïve advanced NSCLC with an EGFR-TKI-sensitising mutation received osimertinib 80 mg QD in 28-day cycles. Mandatory tumour biopsies were obtained pre-treatment and after PD. Concordance between tissue and plasma tumour testing was assessed via NGS at BL and post-PD. Plasma EGFRm (Ex19del/L858R only) analysis was conducted at BL and wk 8 by ddPCR. Clearance was defined as undetected EGFRm ctDNA at wk 8, where it was detected at BL.

Results

154 pts were enrolled: 77% Asian, Ex19del/L858R/atypical EGFR mutations 55/38/7%. Concordance was high between tissue and plasma NGS at BL (n=118) and PD (n=50) for point mutations, e.g., sensitising EGFRm (BL: 109 samples, 80% concordance; PD: 45 samples, 87% concordance). Amplifications were detected more frequently in tissue than plasma at PD, e.g., MET (PD: 12 samples, 33% concordance). Plasma better captured tumour heterogeneity at PD, including point mutations (EGFR C797S; RAS) and fusions (RET). Of 136 pts with evaluable ctDNA at BL, 111 had detected plasma EGFRm. Median (95% CI) PFS in pts with vs without detectable BL EGFRm was 15.7 (11.3–20.2) vs 36.8 (9.1–not calculable) months. Of 104 pts with evaluable ctDNA at BL and wk 8, 94 had plasma EGFRm clearance at wk 8. Median (95% CI) PFS in pts with clearance was 19.6 (14.3–23.8) months and not calculated in pts without clearance due to the low number of events (9 events in 10 pts).

Conclusions

Concordance between tissue and plasma NGS at BL and PD was high for point mutations but lower for amplifications which were detected more frequently in tissue. Our data support the prognostic importance of plasma EGFRm detection at BL and its early clearance during treatment.
