Epidermal growth factor receptor exon 20 insertions in advanced lung adenocarcinomas: Clinical outcomes and response to erlotinib
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 20 insertions (exon20ins) represent approximately 10% of EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinomas, and are associated with resistance to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Clinical outcomes in comparison with patients with sensitizing EGFR mutations are not well established. METHODS: Patients with stage IV lung adenocarcinomas with EGFR exon20ins were identified through routine molecular testing. Clinicopathologic data were collected. Overall survival (OS) was measured from the diagnosis of stage IV disease, and in patients treated with EGFR TKIs, the time to progression (TTP) on erlotinib was measured. RESULTS: One thousand eight hundred and eighty-two patients with stage IV lung adenocarcinomas were identified: 46 patients had EGFR exon20ins (2%), and 258 patients had an EGFR exon 19 deletion (exon19del)/L858R point mutation (14%). Among 11 patients with lung adenocarcinomas with EGFR exon20ins who received erlotinib, 3 patients (27%) had a partial response (FQEA, 1; ASV, 1; and unknown variant, 1). TTP for patients with EGFR exon20ins and patients with EGFR exon19del/L858R on erlotinib were 3 and 12 months, respectively (P < .01). Responses to chemotherapy were similar for patients with lung adenocarcinomas with EGFR exon20ins and patients with lung adenocarcinomas with EGFR exon19del/L858R. Median OS from the diagnosis of stage IV disease for patients with EGFR exon20ins and patients with EGFR exon19del/L858R was 26 months (95% confidence interval, 19 months-not reached n = 46) and 31 months (95% confidence interval, 28-33 months; n = 258), respectively (P = .53). CONCLUSIONS: The majority of patients with advanced lung adenocarcinomas harboring EGFR exon20ins do not respond to EGFR TKI therapy. Standard chemotherapy should be used as first-line therapy. These patients have an OS similar to that of patients with sensitizing EGFR mutations. Individuals with certain variants such as FQEA and ASV may respond to erlotinib.

In a review of 84 patients with EGFR exon 20 insertions treated with gefitinib or erlotinib, the response rate was 11% and progression-free survival was 2.4 months.
“A review of 84 patients with exon 20 insertions across different series treated with either gefitinib or erlotinib demonstrated a RR of only 11% with a PFS of 2.4 months (12).”

Patients with exon 20 insertions may experience a higher ORR (58-63%) and a longer PFS (six months) with platinum-doublet chemotherapy.
“These patients may experience a higher overall response rate (ORR) (58–63%) and a longer PFS (six months) with platinum-doublet chemotherapy, as reported in small retrospective studies [70,71].”
Patients harboring exon 20 insertions have an ORR of 0-11% and a median PFS of 2-3 months when treated with first- or second-generation EGFR TKIs.
“Patients harboring exon 20 insertions are associated with an ORR of 0–11% and a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 2–3 months when treated with first- or second-generation EGFR TKIs [19,21,37,44,45,70]”
Several studies have shown that 1G EGFR-TKI are less effective in patients with NSCLC harboring uncommon EGFR mutations compared with patients harboring common EGFR mutations.
“Several studies, although very small, have shown that 1G EGFR‐TKI are less effective in patients with NSCLC harboring such uncommon EGFR mutations, compared with patients harboring common EGFR mutations.”
In a compilation of data on treatment response to first-generation TKIs, objective response rate for Ins20 was only 17% (10/59).

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
