The role and the integration of therapies targeting exon20ins or uncommon mutations into the first- and second-line treatment armamentarium for NSCLC patients is not yet fully established, and the therapeutic impact of monotherapies (e.g., sunvozertinib, firmonertinib) versus combinations with standard platinum-based chemotherapy (e.g., zipalertinib, amivantamab) currently still lacks robust evidence to further change the therapeutic landscape for these patients. Therefore, results from the ongoing trials are eagerly awaited and are expected to shed some light on these open questions.
In vitro studies show that afatinib, poziotinib, and zipalertinib more potently inhibited near-loop than far-loop insertions, whereas mobocertinib has similar IC50 in both groups. In comparison, in the previously published EXCLAIM trial (NCT02716116), mobocertinib demonstrates similar activities across both groups in tumor size reduction (-38.5% vs. -34.1%, p = 0.59) and PFS (12.0 vs. 13.0 months, p = 0.99). Therefore, EGFRex20ins location differentially impacts the sensitivity of TKIs.
Zipalertinib demonstrated clinically meaningful efficacy with a manageable safety profile in patients with EGFR ex20ins-mutant NSCLC who received prior platinum-based chemotherapy with or without amivantamab.
