Diverse EGFR Exon 20 Insertions and Co-Occurring Molecular Alterations Identified by Comprehensive Genomic Profiling of NSCLC
Open accessAbstract
Introduction EGFR exon 20 insertions (EGFRex20ins) comprise an uncommon subset of EGFR-activating alterations relatively insensitive to first- and second-generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). However, recent early clinical data suggests these patients may benefit from newer-generation EGFR-TKIs. Comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) identifies a broad spectrum of EGFRex20ins and associated co-occurring genomic alterations (GAs) present in NSCLC.Methods Hybrid capture-based CGP was performed prospectively on 14,483 clinically annotated consecutive NSCLC specimens to a mean coverage depth of greater than 650X for 236 or 315 cancer-related genes.Results Of 14,483 NSCLC cases, CGP identified 263 (1.8%) cases with EGFRex20ins, representing 12% (263 of 2251) of cases with EGFR mutations. Sixty-four unique EGFRex20ins were identified, most commonly D770_N771>ASVDN (21%) and N771_P772>SVDNP (20%). EGFR amplification occurred in 22% (57 of 263). The most common co-occurring GAs effected tumor protein p53 (TP53) (56%), cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 2A (CDKN2A) (22%), cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 2B (CDKN2B) (16%), NK2 homeobox 1 (NKX2-1) (14%) and RB transcriptional corepressor 1 (RB1) (11%); co-occurring GAs in other known lung cancer drivers were rare (5%). Average tumor mutational burden was low (mean 4.3, range 0 to 40.3 mutations/Mb). Clinical outcomes to first- and second-generation EGFR TKIs were obtained for five patients and none responded.Conclusions In the largest series of EGFRex20ins NSCLC, diverse EGFRex20ins were detected in 12% of EGFR-mutant NSCLC, a higher frequency than previously reported in smaller single-institution studies. Clinical outcomes showed lack of response to EGFR TKIs. Tumor mutational burden was low, consistent with non-smoking associated NSCLC. Comprehensive sequencing revealed increased proportion and wide variety of EGFRex20ins, representing a population of patients significant enough for focused efforts on effective interventions.

The 14,483 NSCLC specimens tested by comprehensive genomic profiling are representative enough of the broader NSCLC population to estimate the frequency of EGFR exon 20 insertions.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
EGFR exon 20 in-frame insertion mutants are resistant to all currently FDA-approved EGFR TKIs due to steric hindrance, but are sensitive to poziotinib in vitro and in vivo.
“Furthermore, EGFR exon 20 in-frame insertion mutants are recalcitrant to all currently FDA-approved EGFR TKIs due to insertion-imposed steric hindrance of the drug binding pocket, but exhibit sensitivity to poziotinib - a smaller and more flexible inhibitor - in vitro and in vivo46, 47.”

The spectrum and prevalence of co-mutations does not appear to vary depending on the specific initiating EGFR mutation and is similar across EGFR exon 19 deletion, EGFRL858R, and EGFR exon 20 insertions.
“The spectrum and prevalence of co-mutations does not appear to vary depending on the specific initiating EGFR mutation and is similar across the three most common subtypes (EGFR exon 19 deletion, EGFRL858R and EGFR exon 20 insertions)47.”

Exon 20 insertions are the third most common family of EGFR mutations, with over 64 unique variants and an estimated incidence of up to about 10% of all EGFR mutants in NSCLC.
“After classic mutations, exon 20 insertions are the third most common family of EGFR mutations. These insertions encompass residues from 762 to 775 (spatially located after the C-helix of the EGFR kinase domain) and represent a highly heterogeneous family of EGFR mutations, with over 64 unique variants described to date, with an estimated incidence of up to about 10% of all EGFR mutants in NSCLC [”
EGFR-mutated NSCLCs have a lower TMB (median mutational load: 60) compared with other NSCLCs (TP53 mutated: 325; KRAS mutated: 179; STK11 mutated: 132), with no relative differences between canonical exon 19 del/L858R mutations and exon 20 insertions.

Percentages, sums and reported differences re-computed from the paper’s own numbers.
Each contradiction between two passages listed here was confirmed by an independent check.
Comparator mutation is named inconsistently
MinorThe same comparison names the canonical comparator as EGFR L858R in Results but EGFR L585R in Discussion.
“These occurred at comparable frequency in NSCLCs samples with EGFR exon 19del and EGFR L585R without EGFR T790M (Table 2, Figure 4).”
“Co-occurring alterations did not substantially differ between EGFRex20ins and canonical EGFR mutations (EGFR exon 19 deletion and EGFR L858R) that were negative for the most common acquired EGFR TKI resistance mutation, EGFR T790M (Table 2, Figure 4).”
Sarcomatoid percentage is rounded incorrectly
MinorTwo of 263 cases is about 0.76%, which rounds to 0.8% at one decimal place, not the reported 0.7%.

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.
Claims read by deepseek-v4.1-flash under definition version 3 (extract-v3) on 2026-10-06.
