AIM

Osimertinib is a third-generation epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) approved for patients with EGFR mutated non-small cell lung cancer as first-line treatment. However, treatment resistance inevitably emerges and may present as oligo-progressive disease (OPD) or systemic progressive disease (SPD). The incidence of OPD on first-line osimertinib is unknown.

METHODS

We retrospectively analyzed patients who received first-line osimertinib at 13 Swiss centers. The rate of OPD (PD in ≤ 5 lesions) and treatment outcomes were analyzed.

RESULTS

The median age of the 148 patients was 68.2 years (range. 38.0-93.3). There were 62 % females, 83 % with a PS ≤ 1, 59 % never smokers, 57 % of patients with an EGFR exon 19 deletion and 37 % with EGFR p.L858R exon 21. 77 % experienced OPD. Median overall survival (OS) was 51.6 months (95 % CI, 38.4-65.0). Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 19.2 (95 % CI, 14.3-23.5) and 8.7 (95 % CI, 2.8-15.6) months for patients with common and uncommon EGFR mutations. Patients with OPD compared to SPD had a significantly longer time to treatment failure and longer OS of (22.9 vs. 10.8 months, p < 0.001 and 51.6 vs. 26.4 months, p = 0.004, respectively). The most common organ sites of PD were lung (62 %), brain (30 %), lymph nodes (30 %), bone (27 %) and pleura (27 %). Twenty-six patients (45 %) with OPD received local ablative treatment (LAT). The OS of OPD patients with LAT was 60.0 (95 % CI, 51.6-NA) vs. 51.4 (95 % CI 38.4-65.3) months (p = 0.43) without LAT.

CONCLUSION

The rate of OPD of patients receiving first line osimertinib was 77 %. Patients with OPD had a significantly better OS compared to patients with SPD (51.6 vs. 26.4 months). Patients with OPD receiving LAT had the longest median OS (60.0 months).
