Introduction
Recent data show that EGFR pathway and its inhibition maintain their role after progression of disease during EGFR TKI therapy in NSCLCs. We conducted a retrospective study with the aim of evaluating efficacy and feasibility of prosecution of EGFR TKI therapy beyond focal progression associated to locoregional radiotherapy.Methods
We retrospectively analyzed the data of all NSCLC patients treated with EGFR TKIs in our institution from 2004 to 2012. We included in the analysis patients that after a focal disease progression, meant as a single lesion RECIST progression, have been treated with definitive locoregional radiotherapy, associated to continuation of EGFR TKI therapy until further progression.Results
15 out of 147 patients (10%) satisfied inclusion criteria. The median progression free survival, measured from the date of focal progression until further progression of disease or death by any cause, was 10,9 months (range 3–32 months). The corresponding 6 and 12 months PFS rates were 73% and 33%, respectively.Conclusion
The longer disease control observed in our patients suggests that continuation of EGFR TKI beyond focal progression associated to a locoregional treatment is an efficacious therapeutic strategy. 相似文献2.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring an activating epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation shows good and rapid response to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). We prospectively evaluated the efficacy of EGFR TKI for metastatic brain tumors in NSCLC patients harboring EGFR mutation. This was an open-label, single-institution, phase II study. Patients diagnosed with NSCLC harboring EGFR mutation and measurable metastatic brain tumors were eligible. They received either erlotinib or gefitinib once a day. Out of total 28 patients enrolled, 23 patients (83%) showed a partial response (PR) and 3 patients (11%) did stable disease (SD), giving a disease control rate of 93%. Median progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 6.6 months (95% CI, 3.8-9.3 months) and 15.9 months (95% CI, 7.2-24.6 months), respectively. There was no difference in PFS and OS according to EGFR TKIs used. After discontinuation of the treatment, 14 patients (50%) received local therapy for metastatic brain tumors during their disease course, either whole brain radiotherapy or radiosurgery, giving a local therapy-free interval of 12.6 months (95% CI, 7.6-17.6 months). EGFR TKI therapy might be the treatment of choice for metastatic brain tumors in NSCLC patients harboring an activating EGFR mutation. 相似文献

Background.
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy is clearly beneficial in patients with advanced EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, acquired resistance develops uniformly and the benefit of continuation of EGFR TKI therapy beyond progression remains unclear.Materials and Methods.
This was a randomized phase II study of chemotherapy (arm A: pemetrexed or docetaxel) versus chemotherapy plus erlotinib (ERL) (arm B) in patients with progressive NSCLC following clinical benefit from erlotinib. In arm B, chemotherapy was given with erlotinib at an oral daily dose of 150 mg on days 2–19 of each cycle to minimize negative pharmacodynamic interactions. The primary endpoint was that continuation of erlotinib in this patient population could extend progression-free survival (PFS) by 50%.Results.
A total of 46 patients were randomized (arm A: 24; arm B: 22). Patient characteristics were well balanced except there were more female patients in arm A (p = .075). The median PFS of patients in arm A was 5.5 months and for those in arm B, 4.4 months (p = .699). The response rates were 13% and 16% in arms A and B, respectively (p = .79). EGFR status data were available for 39 of the 46 patients and no significant difference in PFS was seen for continuing ERL beyond progression in mutation-positive patients. Substantially more toxicity was seen in arm B than arm A.Conclusion.
There was added toxicity but no benefit with the continuation of ERL beyond progression along with chemotherapy as compared with chemotherapy alone.Implications for Practice:
The benefits of continuing erlotinib upon progression alongside conventional chemotherapy are unclear. This randomized phase II study, initiated prior to the establishment of routine epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation testing, addressed this clinically relevant issue through randomizing patients with prior clinical benefit from erlotinib (thereby enriching for EGFR-mutated tumors) upon progression in the second- or third-line setting to conventional chemotherapy (single-agent pemetrexed or docetaxel) with or without continued erlotinib. The results showed no benefit to continuing erlotinib beyond progression, while significantly more side effects were noted in the combination arm. Along with other recently presented study findings, these results argue against the routine practice of continuing erlotinib in this setting. 相似文献4.

Background
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation is the key predictor of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) efficacy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We conducted this study to verify the feasibility of EGFR mutation analysis in cytological specimens and investigate the responsiveness to gefitinib treatment in patients carrying EGFR mutations.Methods
A total of 210 cytological specimens were collected for EGFR mutation detection by both direct sequencing and amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS). We analyzed EGFR mutation status by both methods and evaluated the responsiveness to gefitinib treatment in patients harboring EGFR mutations by overall response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR) and progression free survival (PFS).Results
Of all patients, EGFR mutation rate was 28.6% (60/210) by direct sequencing and 45.2% (95/210) by ARMS (P<0.001) respectively. Among the EGFR wild type patients tested by direct sequencing, 26.7% of them were positive by ARMS. For the 72 EGFR mutation positive patients treated with gefitinib, the ORR, DCR and median PFS were 69.4%, 90.2% and 9.3 months respectively. The patients whose EGFR mutation status was negative by direct sequencing but positive by ARMS had lower ORR (48.0% vs. 80.9%, P=0.004) and shorter median PFS (7.4 vs. 10.5 months, P=0.009) as compared with that of EGFR mutation positive patients by both detection methods.Conclusions
Our study verified the feasibility of EGFR analysis in cytological specimens in advanced NSCLC. ARMS is more sensitive than direct sequencing in EGFR mutation detection. EGFR Mutation status tested on cytological samples is applicable for predicting the response to gefitinib. Abundance of EGFR mutations might have an influence on TKIs efficacy. 相似文献5.

Objectives
Although T790M mutation is considered to be the major mechanism of acquired resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), its clinical implication remains undetermined.Methods
Post-progression tumor specimens were prospectively collected for T790M mutation analysis in NSCLC patients with acquired resistance to initial EGFR TKIs. Clinical features were compared between patients with and without T790M.Results
Out of 70 cases, 36 (51%) were identified to have T790M mutation in the rebiopsy specimen. There was no difference in the pattern of disease progression, progression-free survival for initial TKIs (12.8 and 11.3 months), post-progression survival (14.7 and 14.1 months), or overall survival (43.5 and 36.8 months) in patients with and without T790M. In total, 34 patients received afatinib after post-progression biopsy as a subsequent treatment, and the response rate was 18%. The median progression-free survival for afatinib was 3.7 months for the entire group, and 3.2 and 4.6 months for the groups with and without T790M, respectively (P = 0.33).Conclusions
The identification of T790M as acquired resistance mechanism was clinically feasible. Although T790M had no prognostic or predictive role in the present study, further research is necessary to identify patients with T790M-mutant tumors who might benefit from newly developed T790M-specific TKIs. 相似文献6.

Although cranial radiotherapy is considered the standard treatment for brain metastasis (BM), EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have shown promising activity in EGFR mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with BM. However, the efficacy of sequential cranial radiotherapy in patients with EGFR mutant NSCLC who are treated with EGFR TKIs remains to be determined. Patients with NSCLC who harbored an EGFR mutation and whose BM had been treated with EGFR TKIs were retrospectively reviewed. The clinical outcomes of patients treated with EGFR TKIs alone and those treated with cranial radiotherapy followed by EGFR TKIs (additive therapy) were compared. Of the 573 patients with NSCLC with BM who harbored an EGFR mutation and had received EGFR TKIs, 121 (21.1 %) had BM at the time of initial diagnosis. Fifty-nine (49 %) patients were treated with additive therapy, whereas 62 (51 %) patients were treated only with EGFR TKIs. No significant differences were observed between the additive therapy group and the EGFR TKI alone group regarding intracranial progression-free survival (PFS) (16.6 vs 21.0 months, p = 0.492) or extracranial PFS (12.9 vs 15.0 months, p = 0.770). The 3-year survival rates were similar in both groups (71.9 vs 68.2 %, p = 0.675). Additive therapy consisting of cranial radiotherapy followed by EGFR TKI treatment did not improve OS or intracranial PFS compared with EGFR TKI treatment alone in EGFR mutant NSCLC patients with BM. Further prospective studies are needed to determine the precise benefits of sequential cranial radiotherapy in EGFR mutant NSCLC treated with EGFR TKIs. 相似文献

Efficacy of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors for non-adenocarcinoma NSCLC patients with EGFR mutation
Cho SH Park LC Ji JH Park S Hwang DW Lee JY Choi YL Han JH Sun JM Ahn JS Park K Ahn MJ 《Cancer chemotherapy and pharmacology》2012,70(2):315-320
Purpose
The epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR TKIs) gefitinib and erlotinib have shown dramatic response rate (RR) and significant prolongation of progression-free survival (PFS) in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with EGFR mutation. Since only a few patients with non-adenocarcinoma histology have been enrolled in clinical trials, the efficacy of EGFR TKIs in non-adenocarcinoma NSCLC patients with EGFR mutation has not yet been fully determined.Methods
We retrospectively analyzed clinical outcomes, including RR, PFS, and OS, in patients who were treated with the EGFR TKIs gefitinib or erlotinib and compared the results with those of adenocarcinoma patients with EGFR mutation and non-adenocarcinoma patients with wild-type EGFR.Results
Among 250 patients with non-adenocarcinoma of the lung who underwent EGFR mutation genotyping, 21 were found to have an EGFR mutation (8.4?%). Twelve of the 21 patients were treated with the EGFR TKIs gefitinib (n?=?6) or erlotinib (n?=?6). The most common mutation was exon 19 deletion (n?=?7). The RR and disease control rate for 12 patients receiving EGFR TKIs were 50 and 75?%, respectively. The median PFS was 3.67?months (95?% CI: 1.34?C5.99), which was significantly lower than that of 269 adenocarcinoma patients with EGFR mutation (13.53?months) but better than that of 32 non-adenocarcinoma patients with wild-type EGFR (1.83?months) who were treated with EGFR TKIs.Conclusions
The results of this study show that the EGFR mutation rate in Korean patients with non-adenocarcinoma of the lung is relatively high and that the clinical outcomes of EGFR TKIs are modest. 相似文献9.

Introduction
Although most NSCLC patients with sensitizing epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations have an impressive initial response, the vast majority has residual disease and develops acquired resistance after 9 to 14 months of EGFR tyrosine kinase (TKI) therapy. We recently reported a phase II trial showing that, for patients with molecularly unselected oligometastatic NSCLC who did not progress after first-line systemic therapy, local consolidation therapy (LCT) with surgery or radiation improved progression-free survival (PFS), compared with maintenance therapy alone. Herein, we report a retrospective analysis of LCT after TKI in patients with metastatic EGFR mutant NSCLC.Patients and Methods
We identified patients with metastatic EGFR mutant NSCLC treated with TKI plus LCT or with TKI alone in the MD Anderson GEMINI (Genomic Marker-Guided Therapy Initiative) database and in our recently published LCT trial. PFS was compared between LCT plus TKI and TKI only treated patients using the log-rank test.Results
We identified 129 patients with EGFR mutant NSCLC who were treated with first-line TKI and 12 that were treated with TKI followed by LCT. Among the 12 patients treated with TKI plus LCT, 8 patients had oligometastatic disease (defined as ≤ 3 metastases), and 4 patients had > 3 metastases. LCT regimens were hypofractionated radiotherapy or stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy for 11 patients and surgery for 1 patient. TKI followed by LCT resulted in a significantly longer PFS (36 months) compared with TKI alone (PFS, 14 months; log-rank P = .0024).Conclusions
Our data suggests that first-line TKI plus LCT is a promising therapeutic strategy for patients with EGFR mutant NSCLC that merits further investigation. 相似文献10.

Background.
Univariate analyses from several randomized phase III trials seemed to suggest ever-smokers with advanced mutated epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFRm) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) did not seem to benefit from EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) as first-line treatment when compared with platinum-doublet chemotherapy as measured by progression-free survival (PFS).Methods.
A literature-based meta-analysis of PFS outcomes as measured by log-transformed pooled hazard ratio (HR) was performed using a random-effect model. Pooled HRs for smoking status, age, gender, ethnicity, type of EGFR mutation, and EGFR TKI were obtained. Comparison of the pooled HR was performed by metaregression analysis.Results.
Among the 1,649 EGFRm NSCLC patients analyzed from 7 prospective randomized trials (WJTOG3405, NEJ002, EURTAC, OPTIMAL, LUX Lung-3, LUX Lung-6, and ENSURE), 83.7% were Asians, and 30.0% were ever-smokers. An equal percentage of ever-smokers received doublet chemotherapy (30.2%) or EGFR TKI (30.0%). The pooled HR for PFS was 0.29 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.21–0.39) for never-smokers and 0.54 (95% CI: 0.38–0.76) for ever-smokers (p < .007 by metaregression). The pooled PFS HR for exon 19 deletion was 0.25 (95% CI: 0.19–0.31) and 0.44 for exon 21 substitution (95% CI: 0.34–0.57) (p < .001 by metaregression analysis). The pooled PFS HR was 0.33 (95% CI: 0.24–0.46) for Asians and 0.48 for non-Asians (95% CI: 0.28–0.84) (p = .261 by metaregression analysis).Conclusion.
EGFRm NSCLC patients derived significant PFS benefit from TKI over platinum-doublet chemotherapy as first-line treatment regardless of smoking status; however, PFS benefit is significantly better in never-smokers by metaregression analysis. 相似文献11.
Background
Patients with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) can develop acquired resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) erlotinib and gefitinib. Here, we report the successful treatment with alternating chemotherapy and TKIs of two cases of advanced NSCLC who developed resistance to TKI. 相似文献12.

Background:
Accumulating data shows that exon 19 deletions and L858R, both activating epidermal growth factor receptor mutations in non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLCs), are just two different entities in terms of prognosis and treatment response to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs).Methods:
A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials comparing TKIs with conventional chemotherapy was performed. Eight trials of 1498 patients and five trials of 1279 patients with either exon 19 deletions or L858R were included in the meta-analysis.Results:
TKI treatment demonstrated progression-free survival benefit in patients with exon 19 deletions (hazard ratio (HR): 0.27, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.21–0.35) and L858R (HR: 0.45, 95% CI: 0.35–0.58). Patients with exon 19 deletions had significant overall survival (OS) benefit under TKI treatment (HR: 0.72, 95% CI: 0.60–0.88). Subgroup analyses showed that irreversible TKIs, but not reversible TKIs, had statistically significant OS benefit in these patients (irreversible TKIs, HR: 0.59, 95% CI: 0.47–0.73; reversible TKIs, HR: 0.84, 95% CI: 0.69–1.02). Patients with L858R demonstrated no OS benefit under first-line TKI use (HR: 1.15, 95% CI: 0.95–1.39).Conclusions:
In patients with advanced NSCLC harbouring exon 19 deletions, TKIs are associated with better OS compared with conventional chemotherapy. Future clinical trials should take exon 19 deletions and L858R as distinct disease entities and evaluate the treatment efficacy separately. 相似文献14.

BackgroundThe mechanism of primary resistance to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in EGFR-mutant non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has not been clearly understood.Patients and methodsEleven patients exhibiting primary resistance (disease progression <3 months) were identified among 197 consecutive NSCLC patients with TKI-sensitive EGFR mutations who received EGFR TKIs at Seoul National University Hospital. Treatment-naïve tumors were examined for concurrent genetic alterations using fluorescence in situ hybridization and targeted deep sequencing of cancer-related genes. Deletion polymorphism of Bcl-2-interacting mediator of cell death (BIM) gene was examined to validate its predictive role for TKI outcome.ResultsThe median progression-free survival (PFS) for patients receiving EGFR TKIs was 11.9 months, and the response rate 78.8%. Among the 11 patients exhibiting primary resistance, a de novo T790M mutation was identified in one patient, and two exhibited mesenchymal-epithelial transition amplification and anaplastic lymphoma kinase fusion. Targeted deep sequencing identified no recurrent, coexistent drivers of NSCLC. Survival analysis revealed that patients with recurrent disease after surgery had a longer PFS than those with initial stage IV disease. However, BIM deletion polymorphism, line of treatment, EGFR genotype, and smoking were not predictive of PFS for EGFR TKIs.ConclusionsWe identified coexistent genetic alterations of cancer-related genes that could explain primary resistance in a small proportion of patients. Our result suggests that the mechanism of primary resistance might be heterogeneous. 相似文献

Introduction
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have become a treatment option in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. However, despite their use in this disease, a significant number of patients will eventually develop resistance and relapse. In this study, we aimed to characterize several molecular events involved in potential resistance mechanisms to anti-EGFR treatment and correlate our findings with clinical outcome.Material and methods
The medical records of patients with NSCLC who received anti-EGFR TKIs in any line within the participating centers were reviewed and available paraffin embedded tissue was retrieved. Mutational analysis for EGFR, KRAS, BRAF and intron-exon 14 deletions of MET; FISH analysis for chromosomal gain or amplification for EGFR, MET and the deletion marker D7S486 were performed. Furthermore, the expression of EGFR and MET were analysed by immunohistochemistry. All results were correlated with treatment outcomes.Results
Between 10/2001 and 12/2009 from an initial cohort of 72 treated patients, 59 cases (28 gefitinib/ 31 erlotinib) were included in the analysis. The majority had adenocarcinoma histology (68%), and received treatment in the second line setting (56%). Disease control rate (DCR) was 25.4% for all patients. EGFR and RAS mutational rates were 33% and 10% respectively, no other mutations were identified. High EGFR expressing tumors were found in 7 of 45 cases and pEGFR positivity (IHC) was found in 56% of the cases; MET expression was found in 48% of tumors. EGFR gene amplification was found in 4 cases, two cases showed high polysomy; overall, 13% cases were FISH positive for EGFR. High polysomy of MET gene was detected in 1/43 cases tested. D7S486 locus deletion was detected in 15/37 (40%) of cases. EGFR mutational status and gene gain were both associated with more favorable DCR. No other associations between examined biomarkers and DCR or survival were noted.Conclusions
EGFR mutational status is a predictor for disease control in patients with NSCLC treated with anti-EGFR TKIs. The predictive role of several other molecules involved in potential resistance to anti-EGFR TKIs is worthy of additional investigation. 相似文献16.

Background and purpose
Continuous EGFR-TKI treatment beyond progression has shown promising benefit for some patients with acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of secondary T790M mutation at the time of progression with the efficacy of EGFR-TKI treatment beyond progression.Methods
From March 2011 to March 2013, patients with advanced NSCLC who developed acquired resistance to EGFR-TKI and where a re-biopsy was performed at Tongji University Cancer Institute were included into this study. Scorpion ARMS was used to detect EGFR mutation status.Results
A total of 54 patients were enrolled in this study with a median progression-free survival time (PFS1) of 10.9 months according to RECIST criteria. In all, 53.7% (29/54) had T790M mutation after the failure of EGFR-TKIs; PFS1 was not statistically significantly different between patients with T790M mutation and without (13.0 vs. 10.5 months, p = 0.894). In all, 41 patients received TKI treatment beyond progression, including 22 with local progression to receive additional local therapy and 19 with gradual progression to receive additional chemotherapy. The median progression-free survival time (PFS2) of patients who received EGFR-TKI beyond progression treatment was 3.5 months (95% CI, 2.689–4.311). Patients with T790M mutation had significantly longer PFS2 (6.3 vs. 2.6 months, p = 0.002) and overall survival (39.8 vs. 23.2 months, p = 0.044) than those without.Conclusion
Patients with secondary T790M mutation at the time of progression having gradual or local progression after acquired resistance to EGFR-TKI benefit more from EGFR-TKI treatment beyond progression compared to those without T790M mutation. 相似文献17.

Introduction
The multitargeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) crizotinib is active against ALK translocated non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC); however acquired resistance invariably develops over time. ALK mutations have previously been implicated in only a third of resistant tumors. We sought to evaluate alternative mechanisms of resistance and preclinical strategies to overcome these in a cell line driven by EML4-ALK.Methods
We selected the NSCLC cell line NCI-H3122 (H3122: EML4-ALK E13;A20) and derived resistant variants that were able to grow in the presence of 1 μM crizotinib. These were analyzed for ALK mutations, sensitivity to crizotinib in combination with other TKIs, and for activation of alternative tyrosine kinases.Results
All H3122 crizotinib resistant (CR) clones lacked amplification or mutations in the kinase domain of ALK. To evaluate if possible alternative kinases functioned as “bypass” tracks for downstream signaling activation in these resistance cells, we performed of phosho-receptor tyrosine kinase array that demonstrated that CR clones had higher phospho-EGFR signals than H3122 cells before and after exposure to crizotinib. A functional approach of dual ALK TKI (with crizotinib) with combinatory TKI inhibition was used as a secondary screen for possible targets. Crizotinib + erlotinib (reversible EGFR TKI) and crizotinib + afatinib (irreversible EGFR/ERBB2 TKI) were able to inhibit the growth of H3122 CR clones, confirming EGFR activation as a mechanism of resistance. The removal of crizotinib from the culture media re-sensitized CR cells to crizotinib.Conclusions
We identified activation of EGFR as a mechanism of resistance to crizotinib in preclinical models of ALK translocated NSCLC. If EGFR activation is confirmed as a predominant mechanism of ALK TKI-induced resistance in patient-derived tumors, the use of ALK plus EGFR TKIs could be explored for this important cohort of NSCLCs. 相似文献18.

BACKGROUND:
In patients with nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC), several studies have demonstrated a positive correlation between somatic mutation in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase domain and clinical outcomes with the use of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). However, some patients with wild‐type (WT) EGFR also responded to EGFR TKIs and remained stable. Recently, amphiregulin (AR) has been suggested as a predictive marker for EGFR TKIs in patients with WT EGFR‐positive NSCLC. The objective of the current study was to evaluate the association between AR expression and the efficacy of using EGFR TKIs in the treatment of patients with WT EGFR‐positive NSCLC.METHODS:
Seventy‐three patients with WT EGFR‐positive NSCLC received treatment with gefitinib or erlotinib between May 2005 and December 2008. AR expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry.RESULTS:
The clinical response to EGFR TKIs was reassessed for all patients as follows: 16 of 73 patients had a partial response (21.9%), 12 patients had stable disease (16.5%), and 45 patients had progressive disease (61.6%). AR expression was positive in 24 of 40 patients (60%). The ability to achieve disease control did not differ significantly between AR‐positive patients and AR‐negative patients (P = .188). At a median follow‐up of 25.4 months (range, 10.5‐53.3 months), progression‐free survival was 8.1 weeks in AR‐positive patients and 4 weeks in AR‐negative patients (P = .025), and overall survival was significantly longer in AR‐positive patients than in AR‐negative patients (12.2 months vs 4.1 months; P = .001).CONCLUSIONS:
The current results suggested that patients with WT EGFR‐positive NSCLC who have AR‐positive tumors may benefit clinically from treatment with EGFR TKIs, indicating that AR expression may be a potential marker for the selection of EGFR‐TKI treatment for patients with WT EGFR‐positive NSCLC.

Background
Epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKI) have been widely used for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). KRAS and EGFR somatic mutations in NSCLC may predict resistance and responsiveness to TKI, respectively. Nevertheless, most research to date has been conducted on samples from primary tumors. For many patients with advanced disease, their samples can only be obtained from metastases for test. The molecular characteristics of metastasized tumors may be different from those of primary tumors.Materials and methods
Mutation status of KRAS and EGFR between primary tumors and local lymph node metastases of 80 Chinese patients with NSCLC were analyzed by direct sequencing. Five of them were given gefitinib as neoadjunvant treatment after the EGFR-TKI sensitive mutations were detected in their biopsies of mediastinal lymph nodes metastases. McNemar''s test was used to compare the EGFR and KRAS mutation status between primary tumors and corresponding local lymph node metastases. Data evaluation was carried out with SPSS_13.0 statistical software.Results
Among the 160 samples, one primary tumor and seven metastases were identified with KRAS mutations and 21 primary tumors and 26 metastases were found to have EGFR mutations. KRAS and EGFR mutation status was different between primary tumors and corresponding metastases in 6 (7.5%) and 7 (8.75%) patients, respectively. One patient with no TKI sensitive mutations detected in the primary tumor showed disease progression.Conclusion
