Significance of targeted therapy and genetic alterations in EGFR, ALK, or KRAS on survival in patients with non-small cell lung cancer treated with radiotherapy for brain metastases
Open accessAbstract
BACKGROUND: We determined the impact of genetic alterations in EGFR, ALK, or KRAS on survival after radiotherapy for brain metastases in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS: Of 172 genotyped NSCLC patients treated with radiotherapy for brain metastases in 2005-2012, 54 had cancers with EGFR mutations, 12 had ALK rearrangements, 38 had KRAS mutations, and 68 were wild-type (WT). Overall survival (OS) was determined. RESULTS: Median follow-up was 8.6 months. Median OS was 13.6 months for patients with EGFR mutations and 26.3 months for patients with ALK rearrangements, in contrast to 5.7 months for KRAS-mutant patients and 5.5 months for WT patients (P = .001). On multivariate analysis, adjusting for receipt of targeted therapy after cranial radiotherapy, ALK rearrangements were associated with improved OS (HR, 0.31; 95% CI, 0.13-0.74; P = .008). EGFR mutations were not significantly associated with improved OS on multivariate analysis (HR, 0.71; 95% CI, 0.37-1.38; P = .3). KRAS mutations were also not associated with improved OS (HR, 0.93; 95% CI, 0.59-1.47; P = .8). Receipt of targeted therapy after cranial radiotherapy was independently associated with improved OS (HR, 0.30; 95% CI, 0.17-0.54; P < .001). Receipt of chemotherapy after cranial radiotherapy, number of brain metastases, extracranial metastases, age, and performance status were also associated with OS. CONCLUSIONS: NSCLC patients with genetic alterations in ALK have improved survival outcomes after radiotherapy for brain metastases compared with EGFR, KRAS, or WT. Subsequent receipt of targeted therapy was associated with additional improvement in OS.

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.
