EGFR mutation + PIK3CA mutation

AXL and PIM-1 expression detected in CTCs during treatment suggesting new possible therapeutic strategies. Our results reveal that comprehensive liquid biopsy analysis can efficiently represent the heterogeneous molecular landscape and provide prominent information on subsequent treatments for NSCLC patients at PD since druggable molecular alterations were detected in CTCs.

Patients with ALK mutant, BRAF mutant or NRAS mutant were more prone to metastasis, while the HER 2 mutation group was less metastatic. Patients with EGFR mutant NSCLC are more likely to develop bone, lung, or brain metastasis.

We also studied preclinical Ba/F3 models expressing EGFR -K745_E746insIPVAIK (Ba/F3-IPVAIK) and EGFR -delE746_A750 (Ba/F3-Del19) to investigate the sensitivity to 1st-generation (gen) (gefitinib and erlotinib), 2nd-gen (afatinib, dacomitinib, and poziotinib), 3rd-gen (osimertinib), and EGFR exon 20 insertion active TKIs (mobocertinib, sunvozertinib, and zipalertinib). The preclinical therapeutic window of Ba/F3-IPVAIK and Ba/F3-Del19 for all the 2nd generation TKIs were similarly favorable, whereas Ba/F3-IPVAIK had much unfavorable therapeutic windows to other EGFR-TKIs compared to Ba/F3-Del19. Conclusions : Our clinical and preclinical findings indicate 2nd-gen EGFR-TKIs are more effective than 1st and 3rd-gen EGFR-TKIs in patients with EGFR exon 19 insertions.

Mutation profiles differed by histological type and metastases status and were significantly associated with PD-L1 expression. In the context of limited resources, our results may help prioritize patient for testing when tissue material and funding is limited.

We highlight the role of PIK3CA mutation as an acquired resistance mechanism against EGFR-TKIs in EGFR-mutant NSCLC. Crucially, we explore therapeutic strategies targeting PIK3CA-mediated resistance to EGFR TKIs in lung cancer, aiming to optimize the effectiveness of treatment.

The liquid-first approach enhances the yield of rare mutations by tissue NGS which is resource-dependent. It benefits regions where tissue biopsy is a rate limiting factor and EGFR mutations are prevalent.

Furthermore, additional EGFR resistance mutations, such as C797S, were 1 case. Expected Conclusions MET amp and PIK3CA mutation are the common resistance mechanisms of osimertinib PD, and the rate of additional EGFR resistance mutations is lower compared with prior studies.

In breast cancer (n=22), relevant alterations included ERBB2 amp (22%) and mutations in PIK3CA (43%), ESR1 (4.8%), ERBB2 (4.8%) and BRCA1/2 (4.8%). Conclusions This analysis of the first tumor samples tested by a new CGP panel in AME demonstrated detection of actionable alterations at the expected frequency with only 15 days median TAT.

HCC CK19+/CK7+ targeted therapy might benefit from a CTNNB1, TP53, ALK, EGFR, MAP2K2, RET, PTEN, and IDH2 panel, standardized for PLC spectrum. This knowledge would allow better understanding the clinical course and PLC heterogeneity, together with improving tumor classification and treatment.

Moreover, the combined effect and mechanism of gefitinib and BYL719 were also confirmed in the NSCLC cells and patient-derived organoids under 3D culture condition, as well as in vivo. Taken together, the data indicate that PIK3CA mutation induces more aggressive growth and gefitinib resistance in NSCLC cells, and the combination treatment with gefitinib and BYL719 is a promising therapeutic approach to overcoming EGFR-TKIs resistance induced by PI3K/AKT activation.

Although no statistical significance was found between the detected mutation and clinicopathological data, it was concluded that PDGFRA mutation might be associated with advanced-stage disease development. This study's findings regarding different molecular types of UCS and information on oncogenesis of UCS can provide inferences for targeted therapies in the future by identifying targetable mutations representing early oncogenic events and thereby contribute toward further studies on this subject.

Multifactorial analysis showed that TP53 mutation (HR 2.198, 95% CI 1.006-4.803; P = 0.048) and RB1 mutation (HR 8.798, 95% CI 1.604-48.269; P = 0.012) were independent risk factors for PFS with first-line targeted therapy. Conclusions This research added to the evidence that co-alterations such as TP53, MET, and RB1 are prospective prognostic biomarkers in NSCLC patients treated with EGFR-TKI.

This research added to the evidence that co-alterations such as TP53, MET, and RB1 are prospective prognostic biomarkers in NSCLC patients treated with EGFR-TKI.

Based on NGS and PD-L1 IHC, gene mutation, TMB and PD-L1 expression are analyzed. Cox single factor and PFS are used to verify that these molecular markers are independent of TMB and PD-L1 for targeted therapy of lung cancer.

In conclusion, highly differentiated cervical HPV-negative precursors are characteristic intraepithelial squamous lesions with somatic mutations that resemble those described in vulvar HPV-independent carcinogenesis. For optimal reproducibility, we propose a simplistic classification of these HPV-negative cervical precursors in TP53-mutated d-CIN and p53 wild-type verruciform intraepithelial neoplasia.

Sponsored by Pharmaceutical/Biotech Company, Janssen R&D, LLC. At a median duration of treatment of 33.5 months, median DOR, PFS, and OS have not been reached in treatment-naïve pts receiving ami+laz, with 50% remaining progression-free and on treatment. No new safety signals were identified. The ongoing phase 3 MARIPOSA study (NCT04487080) is further investigating ami+laz vs osimertinib vs laz in previously untreated, EGFR-mutated, advanced NSCLC.

Pts with EGFR+ sq/adenosq LCs exhibit inferior TTD and OS with 1L osimertinib compared to adenocarcinoma controls. Sq/adenosq LCs appear to be molecularly distinct with enrichment in EGFR L858R and atypical EGFR mutations. Transcriptomic profiling of a subset of samples will be presented.

This study illustrates the feasibility of detecting actionable mutations from ctDNA among pts with BrMs, with and without extracranial disease. A higher frequency of actionable mutations in several targetable genes was observed in ctDNA when comparing pts with and without BrMs, thus providing therapeutic opportunities. Additional studies comparing ctDNA and alterations in BrMs tissue are needed to determine if ctDNA can be considered a surrogate to support treatment decisions.

Using a large clinical genomic database with GBM subjected to comprehensive molecular profiling, we demonstrated that amplification of CDK4 and EGFR were associated with long-term and short-term responses to bevacizumab, respectively. This warrants further investigation in independent cohorts controlled for age and other prognostic factors. If confirmed, a genetic basis for treatment optimization may provide meaningful clinical outcomes.

We identified pts with EGFR mutations or ALK rearrangements who developed PIK3CA/PTEN alterations in tissue biopsy and/or circulating tumor DNA upon progression to first-line osimertinib/alectinib. Activating PI3KCA mutations and molecular events leading to PTEN loss are frequent events at resistance to first-line EGFR/ALK TKIs, and can be detected concomitantly. Functional assays confirmed that these alterations act as resistance mechanisms. These observations are of interest as PI3KCA/mTOR inhibitors may have a role in overcoming resistance.

Mice bearing PDX tumors were randomized into groups of 6 mice treated with avuto alone or in combination with panitumumab for 21 days with tumor volume measured twice weekly.Results In 3D proliferation assays with a panel of KRAS mt CRC cell lines (including G12D, G12V and G13D mutations), the EGFR/ErbB family inhibitor afatinib showed the strongest synergy score with avuto relative to inhibitors of SHP2, ERK1/2, mTOR or CDK4/6. The combination of avuto and panitumumab showed significant anti-tumor activity in a CRC PDX model harboring KRASG12V with less tumor regression observed in a KRASG12D PDX model or in a KRASG12V PDX model with concurrent PIK3CA mutation. These results support the ongoing clinical evaluation of avutometinib in combination with the anti-EGFR antibody cetuximab for treatment of KRAS mt CRC (NCT05200442).

Dual GFP-Luc tagged HER2+ BT474 naïve parental cells and their acquired lapatinib (LapR), neratinib (NeraR), and tucatinib (TucaR) resistant (Res) derivatives harboring acquired HER2 L755S, HER2 L755S and a pathogenic PIK3CA mutation, or EGFR amplification, respectively were used. Additional studies to investigate the organ-specific metastatic tropism of each acquired resistant model are currently ongoing. Molecular and functional characterization of our established metastatic cultures will guide future in vivo studies, including testing the efficacy of new targeted treatment regimens to treat organ-specific metastasis, and expanding such studies to additional relevant cell and patient-derived xenograft/organoid models.

This is the first study to investigate the pathogenesis and clinical features of spGBM following spRCC. We found that spGBMs are old-age related, highly malignant, and have short survival time. Moreover, they might be misdiagnosed and treated as brain metastases from RCC. Thus, the incidence of spGBMs after fpRCC is underestimated. Further studies are needed to investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms and clinical biomarkers for the development of spGBM following fpRCC.

Osimertinib demonstrated activity in ucEGFRmut with high rate of disease control systemically and intracranially. Several resistance mechanisms were identified. This report comprises, to the best of our knowledge, the largest dataset of its kind.

In the present study, exon 5 was the most common mutation site of TP53. EGFR resistance mutation T790M was found to be predominantly associated with TP53 exon 8 mutations. This group of patients who were treated with third-generation TKI, osimertinib, had progressive disease and/or succumbed.

These patients received various therapies including pembrolizumab, nivolumab, capmatinib, bevacizumab, osimertinib, brigatinib, erlotinib, and alectinib, as well as sotorasib. Collection and sequencing of RTD samples provides an opportunity to detect resistance mutations and to understand more about post-treatment disease progression and tumor heterogeneity. The identification of drivers by comprehensive NGS tissue testing in two cases serves as a reminder about the value of such testing when no drivers are identified by small panels or blood-based NGS testing.

The postoperative prognosis of PPC with PIK3CA pathogenic mutations is particularly poor. Pathogenic mutations of PIK3CA may be a postoperative prognostic marker. Inhibition of signaling pathways associated with PIK3CA mutations may also be a target for chemotherapy after relapse of PPC.

In clinical practice, specimen with low adequacy could attempt in gene mutation testing, including biopsy and surgical specimen. However, the amount of tumor for molecular testing should be reported and suboptimal samples with a negative EGFR mutation result should be considered for combination using of other mutation test method or repeat testing of an alternate tumor sample, especially for the surgical samples.

High TMB in second samples is consistent with reports of treatment-induced hypermutagenesis. We showed that NGS should be performed both at diagnosis and at relapse.

1. Some mutations affecting the function of tumor cells and the activation of special signaling pathways may be related to the primary resistance of EGFR-TKIs. 2.

A high positivity rate of detection of actionable and prognostic genomic alterations in the liquid biopsy has established the importance of blood as an important resource of detecting mutations in advanced NSCLC which directly impacts the clinical outcome in these patients. Furthermore, presence of co-positivity of mutations highlights the biologic mechanisms responsible for drug resistance in NSCLC patients.

Pts with an identified mechanism of resistance did not have improved post-progression survival (12 mo HR 1.6, p = 0.09), but receiving next line of therapy based on post-progression tumor biopsy results (including platinum-etoposide for transformation) did improve post-progression survival (12 mo HR 0.4, p = 0.01). Pts with atypical EGFR drivers or concurrent TP53+/-RB1 alterations have significantly shorter rwPFS on first line osimertinib, highlighting need for additional interventions for these patients. Given the high frequency of transformation and improvement in post-progression survival by tailoring next line of therapy to the identified mechanism, pts with EGFR-mutant lung cancer on first line osimertinib may benefit from tissue biopsies at progression. For pts without an identified resistance mechanism by NGS, additional methods of interrogating tumors at progression are needed.

Acquired resistance in EGFR mutant NSCLC is very heterogeneous and their frequency is still low most likely due to lack of enough sequencing of EGFR resistant tumors. While T790M and C797S mutations are well described, this report also notes a significant number of L718V mutations, primarily in osimertinib-treated pts with an original L858R. These data support the NGS evaluation of patients with resistant EGFR mutant lung cancers.

These data support the extension of routine EGFR, KRAS and PIK3CA mutational analysis to C-SCLC and their subclassification into neuroendocrine vs. non-neuroendocrine for inclusion in proper clinical trials.

In our large cohort study, we present the landscape of EGFR+ dual drivers and their associated clinical and genomic features and survival outcomes, which could aid in therapeutic decisions and facilitate the development of combination therapies.

Importantly, our in vitro experiments from multiple cell line models indicated that PIK3CA-mediated resistance to osimertinib could be partially reversed by co-treatment with AKT (capivasertib, AstraZeneca) and PI3K alpha (alpelisib, Novartis) inhibitors; PTEN-mediated resistance could be rescued by co-treatment with capivasertib and PI3K beta (AZD8186, AstraZeneca) inhibitors. Our in vivo analysis show that PIK3CA GOF CRISPR engineered cells displayed diminished response to osimertinib when implanted in mice; importantly, combination with AKT (capivasertib) or PI3K alpha (alpelisib) inhibitors enhanced response on treatment and delayed outgrowth after withdrawal treatment. In addition, we observed that combination treatment with capivasertib induced tumour stasis in a PIK3CA-E454K and two PTENloss PDX models.Altogether our in vitro and in vivo data provide evidence of PIK3CA mutants and PTEN loss-driven mechanisms of resistance to osimertinib and offer possible therapeutic combination strategies for those patients that develop resistance or experience a sub-optimal response to osimertinib through PIK3CA/PTEN mutations

These data suggest that intrinsic genetic alterations, present at baseline in patients with NSCLC harboring an EGFR exon 20 insertion mutation, might impact the response to mobocertinib treatment. The presence of PIK3CA mutations, EGFR gene amplification, or cell cycle regulator MYC-CDK4-CCND1 amplification is associated with lack of response to mobocertinib, which might guide rational combinations for future clinical investigation.

HRAS has been indirectly targeted with tipifarnib, a farnesyltransferase inhibitor rendering HRAS inactive in head and neck tumors... HRAS mutations are detectable but uncommon events in NSCLC and significantly enriched in squamous histology. HRAS mutations often occur with PIK3CA co-mutations and trended towards higher activation of MAPK pathway and MSI-H frequency. This warrants further investigation on possible clinical applications of HRAS pathway inhibitors and utility of immune checkpoint inhibitors for this subset of NSCLC.

Furthermore, following the same extraction and sample testing workflow, we simultaneously detected a set of PIK3CA mutations and HER2 amplification from cfDNA samples. This proof-of-concept workflow creates the foundation for further development of streamlined sample-to-answer protocols that will better assist cancer researchers across the biomarker testing landscape.

This rare tumor has unique clinicopathological characteristics with specific genetic aberrations involving the Wnt pathway. These results provide a molecular basis for development of new therapies to treat these tumors.
