      Background:
      Human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2, ERBB2) mutations / amplifications have been identified as oncogenic drivers in 2-5% of lung cancers. It has been reported that hybridization capture-based next-generation sequencing (NGS) could reliably detect HER2 amplification in qualified breast and gastroesophageal tumor tissue samples. However, there is little data in lung cancer, especially for advance NSCLC with only ctDNA samples available.

      Method:
      We reviewed 2000 consecutive samples from advanced NSCLC patients sequenced in our institute between 2015 and 2016. Tumor biopsy and/or ctDNA samples were analyzed using hybridization capture-based NGS ER-Seq method, which enables simultaneously assess single-nucleotide variants, insertions/deletions, rearrangements, and somatic copy-number alterations at least 59 genes (range 59 – 1021 genes).

      Result:
      We identified 54 samples from 48 patients with HER2-mutation or amplification in the cohort (54/2000=2.7%). The 54 samples included 14 tissue biopsy samples, 37 ctDNA samples, and 3 pleural effusion samples. Thirty-six samples carried HER2 mutations, and 23 samples carried HER2 amplification with 5 samples have concurrent HER2 mutation and amplification. A 9-base pair (bp) in-frame insertion in exon 20 (Y772_A775dup) was detected in 18 samples (18/36=50%). In addition, there were 5 other insertions in exon 20; eight single bp substitutions (S310F) in exon 8; three exon 17 V659E mutations (from the sample patient with 3 ctDNA samples submitted at different time); one exon 19 D769H mutation; and one exon 21 V842I mutation. Amplification were identified in 23 samples, with copy number range from 3.8 to 19.6 in tissue samples (n=7, medium 11.6); from 4.3 to 51.8 in ctDNA samples (n=16, medium 7.3); 3.2 and 6 in the 2 pleural effusion samples. Interestingly, the allele frequency (AF) of HER2 mutation was the maximal in 4 of the 5 patients with concurrent HER2 mutation and amplification. Two patients were EGFR-TKI resistant with EGFR L858R mutation remaining and HER2 mutation and amplification might be the major reason for the resistance.

      Conclusion:
      HER2 mutations might coexist with HER2 amplification in advanced NSCLC patients, and it could be detected simultaneously with hybridization capture-based NGS sequencing both in tissue and liquid biopsy samples. Further quantative analysis of HER2 amplification / mutation and anti-HER2 therapeutic effects are underway.

      P1.01-002 - TP53 Mutations Predict for Poor Survival in ALK Rearrangement Lung Adenocarcinoma Patients Treated with Crizotinib (ID 8241)

      09:30 - 16:00  |  Author(s): Meiyu Fang

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      Advanced non-small-cell lung cancer patients who harbor anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearrangement are sensitive to an ALK inhibitor (Crizotinib), but not all ALK-positive patients benefit equally from crizotinib treatment. We analyze the impact of TP53 mutations on response to crizotinib in patients with ALK rearrangement non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

      Method:
      66 ALK rearrangement NSCLC patients receiving crizotinib were analyzed. 21 cases were detected successfully by the next generation sequencing validation FFPE before crizotinib. TP53 mutations were evaluated in 8 patients in relation to disease control rate (DCR), objective response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).

      Result:
      TP53 mutations were observed in 2 (25.00%), 1 (12.50%), 1 (12.50%) and 4 (50.00%) patients in exons 5, 6, 7 and 8, respectively. The majority of patients were male (75.00%, 6/8), less than 60 years old (62.50%, 5/8) and never smokers (75.00%, 6/8). ORR and DCR for crizotinib in the entire case series were 61.90% and 71.43%, respectively. Statistically significant difference was observed in terms of PFS and OS between TP53 gene wild group and mutation group patients (P=0.038, P=0.021, respectively).

      Conclusion:
      TP53 mutations reduce responsiveness to crizotinib and worsen prognosis in ALK rearrangement NSCLC patients.

      P1.02-044 - Relationship between RET Rearrangement and Thymidylate Synthase mRNA Expression in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Tissues (ID 8266)

      09:30 - 16:00  |  Author(s): Meiyu Fang

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      RET fusion gene is identified as a novel oncogene in a subset of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, few datas are available about the prevalence and clinicopathologic characteristics in RET rearrangement lung adenocarcinoma patients. The aim of this study is to investigate mRNA expressions and relationship of RET rearrangement and thymidylate synthase (TYMS) genes in NSCLC tissues.

      Method:
      The positive rate of RET rearrangement and the mRNA expressions of of TYMS gene in NSCLC tissues of 642 patients were detected by using real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR method, and the relationship and its correlation between the expression and clinicopathological features were also analyzed.

      Result:
      The positive rate of RET rearrangement in NSCLC was 0.93% (6/642); High mRNA expression of TYMS gene was 63.55%(408/642). The expressions showed no relationship with gender, age, smoking, tumor size, lymph node metastasis and clinical stages (P>0.05). The mRNA expressions between RET rearrangement and TYMS genes showed positive correlation (P<0.05).

      Conclusion:
      Thymidylate synthase gene shows low expression level in NSCLC patients with positive RET fusion gene, which may benefit from pemetrexed of first-line chemotherapy drug.

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      PIK3CA mutation represents a clinical subset of diverse carcinomas. We explored the status of PIK3CA mutation and evaluated its genetic variability and prognosis in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. The aim of this study is to investigate mutations and prognosis of non-small-cell lung cancer(NSCLC) harboring PIK3CA mutations.

      Method:
      A total of 517 patients with NSCLC were recruited between July 2012 and December 2014. The status of PIK3CA mutation and other genes were detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) or next generation sequencing.

      Result:
      PIK3CA gene mutation was detected in 3.09% (16/517) NSCLC patients, including H1047R (4 patients), E545A (2 patients), E453K (2 patients), H1065Y (2 patients), E545K (1 patient), E39K (1 patient), E542K (1 patient), C420R (1 patient), K111E (1 patient) and E545K plus L781F (1 patient), and median overall survival (OS) for these patients was 23.0 months. Among them, 12 patients with co-occurring mutations had a median OS of 28.0 months, and median OS of the 4 patients without complex mutations was 21.0 months. No statistically significant difference was found between the two groups (P=0.06). Briefly, patients with (n=5) or without (n=11) co-occurring EGFR mutations had a median OS of 28.5 months and 21.0 months repectively (P=0.45); patients with (n=4) or without (n=12) co-occurring TP53 mutations had a median OS of 30.6 months and 21.0 months repectively (P=0.51).

      Conclusion:
      There is no significant difference of molecular features in PIK3CA gene mutations in NSCLC. Patients with complex mutations benefited more from therapy than those with single mutations.

      • Slides

      Background:
      HER2 is a driver gene identified in non-small-cell lung cancer(NSCLC). The prevalence, clinicopathology and genetic variability of HER2 mutation non-small cell lung cancer patients are unclear. The aim of this study is to investigate mutational subtypes and prognosis of NSCLC harboring HER2 mutations.

      Method:
      A total of 781 patients with NSCLC were recruited between July 2012 and December 2014. The status of HER2 mutation and other genes were detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) or next generation sequencing.

      Result:
      HER2 gene mutation rate was 1.92%(15/781) in NSCLC, including S310F (2 patients), A775_G776insYVM (2 patients), S280F (2 patients), P780_Y781insGSP (1 patient), C630Y (1 patient), L755P (1 patient), T327S (1 patient), K907R (1 patient), R70W (1 patient), E117D (1 patient), L970V (1 patient), and C965S (1 patient). Mutation rate of female was much higher than male(3.76% vs 1.23%, P=0.022), and current-smoker was much higher than no-smoker(3.17% vs 0.74%, P=0.027), and median overall survival (OS) for these patients was 42.6 months. Among them, 12 patients with co-occurring mutations had a median OS of 42.6 months, and median OS of the 3 patients without cpmplex mutations was 40.3 months. No statistically significant difference was found between the two groups(P=0.43). Briefly, patients with (n=8) or without (n=7) co-occurring EGFR mutations had a median OS of 50.6 months and 42.6 months repectively (P=0.19); patients with (n=9) or without (n=6) co-occurring TP53 mutations had a median OS of 40.4 months and 46.7 months repectively (P=0.39); patients with (n=2) or without (n=13) co-occurring SMARCA4 mutations had a median OS of 50.6 months and 42.6 months repectively (P=0.33); patients with (n=2) or without (n=13) co-occurring MTOR mutations had a median OS of 44.3 months and 42.6 months repectively (P=0.71); patients with (n=2) or without (n=13) co-occurring SMARCA4 mutations had a median OS of 50.6 months and 42.6 months repectively (P=0.33); patients with (n=2) or without (n=13) co-occurring APC mutations had a median OS of 39.0 months and 42.6 months repectively (P=0.92).

      Conclusion:
      There are some significant difference of molecular features in HER2 gene mutations with non-smoking women in NSCLC, along with the state of HER2 gene mutations little influence on prognosis. Afatinib treatment may displayed moderate efficacy in patients with HER2 mutations.

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      In non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) RAS-mutant status is a negative prognostic and predictive factor. The prevalence, clinicopathology and genetic variability of RAS mutation NSCLC patients are unclear. The aim of this study is to investigate mutations and prognosis of NSCLC harboring RAS mutations.

      Method:
      We retrospectively reviewed clinical features from 41 patients with RAS gene mutation NSCLC, and the survival rate was calculated by Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test was used to compare the survival rates.

      Result:
      KRAS gene mutation rate was 8.00% (38/475) in NSCLC, including G12C (9 patients), G12D (8 patients), G12V (7 patients), G12A (2 patients), G12S (2 patients), G13D (2 patients), Q61H (2 patients), G12L (1 patient), G12 (1 patient), G12K (1 patient), G12fs*3 plus G12V (1 patient), G13C plus V14I(1 patient) and K5N(1 patient). Mutation rate of current-smoker was much higher than no-smoker(15.76% and 4.41%, P<0.01), and median overall survival (OS) for these patients was 18.3 months; NRAS gene mutation rate was 0.29% (1/346), G12D, and OS for these patients was 14.2 months; HRAS gene mutation rate was 0.63% (2/315), including H27N and N85I, and median OS for both patients was 19.2 months. Among them, 18 cases of the 41 RAS mutation patients with co-occurring mutations had a median OS of 28.0 months, and median OS of the 23 patients without cpmplex mutations was 21.0 months. No statistically significant difference was found between the two groups(P=0.06). Briefly, patients of KRAS mutations with (n=4) or without (n=34) co-occurring EGFR mutations had a median OS of 40.0 months and 16.3 months repectively (P=0.07); patients with (n=3) or without (n=35) co-occurring TP53 mutations had a median OS of 36.4 months and 18.3 months repectively (P=0.22); patients with (n=3) or without (n=35) co-occurring STK11 mutations had a median OS of not reached so far and 16.3 months repectively (P=0.22); patients with (n=2) or without (n=36) co-occurring KEAP1 mutations had a median OS of 43.6 months and 16.3 months repectively (P=0.06).

      Conclusion:
      Mutation rate of KRAS gene in current-smoker NSCLC patients was higher than no-smoker, there is no other significant difference of molecular features in RAS gene mutations in NSCLC. Patients with complex mutations benefited more from therapy than those with single mutations. Immunotherapy may displayed moderate efficacy in patients with TP53 and RAS co-exist mutations.

      P1.02-048 - Somatic Mutation Analysis of RB1 Gene in Chinese Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients (ID 8310)

      09:30 - 16:00  |  Presenting Author(s): Meiyu Fang

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      RB1 (retinoblastoma 1) was reportedly one of the major determinative factors for sensitivity to taxanes in previous studies. The dephosphorylated RB1 protein confers the higher sensitivity to chemotherapy drug, but the RB1 mutation non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) genetic variability and prognosis is unclear. The aim of this study is to investigate mutations and prognosis of NSCLC harboring RB1 mutations.

      Method:
      A total of 728 patients with NSCLC were recruited between July 2012 and December 2014. The status of RB1 mutation and other genes were detected by next generation sequencing.

      Result:
      RB1 gene mutation was detected in 0.96% (7/728) NSCLC patients, including p.G449E (1 patient), p.L542stop (1 patient), p.R552* (1 patient), p.Y6511fs*7 (1 patient), c.2663+2T>C (1 patient), p.P23del (1 patient) and F684fs*7 plus R418T (1 patient), and median overall survival (OS) for these patients was 32.7 months. Among them, all patients were RB1 gene with co-occurring mutations. Briefly, patients with (n=3) or without (n=4) co-occurring EGFR mutations had a median OS of 34.9 months and 30.4 months repectively (P=0.95); patients with (n=5) or without (n=2) co-occurring TP53 mutations had a median OS of 32.7 months and 31.7 months repectively (P=0.90).

      Conclusion:
      EGFR or TP53 gene accompanied may have less correlation with RB1 mutation in NSCLC patients. Chemotherapy drugs may displayed moderated efficacy in patients with RB1 mutation, especially, accompanied with TP53. These data have implications for both clinical trial design and therapeutic strategies.

      P1.02-049 - Detection of CDKN2A Gene Mutations in Patients with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients (ID 8312)

      09:30 - 16:00  |  Presenting Author(s): Meiyu Fang

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      CDKN2A is the tumor suppressor, which regulates cell cycle progression by inhibiting cyclinD-CDK4 and cyclinD-CDK6 complexes responsible for initiating the G1/S phase transition. CDKN2A gene disruption happens by different types of mutations, such as the loss of heterozygosity, homozygous deletion, or promoter silencing. There is some clinical evidence for the use of CDKN2A mutations as prognostic and predictive biomarker. The aim of this study is to investigate mutations and prognosis of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) harboring CDKN2A mutations.

      Method:
      A total of 1046 patients with NSCLC were recruited between July 2012 and December 2014. The status of CDKN2A mutation and other genes were detected by next generation sequencing.

      Result:
      CDKN2A gene mutation was detected in 0.77% (8/1046) NSCLC patients, including p.M53I (1 patient), p.R58* (2 patients), p.R80* (2 patients), c.193+2T>C (1 patient), p.A127T (1 patient) and p.D74Y (1 patient), and median overall survival (OS) for these patients was 29.8 months. Among them, all patients were CDKN2A gene with co-occurring mutations. Briefly, patients with (n=4) or without (n=4) co-occurring EGFR mutations had a median OS of 23.4 months and 33.6 months repectively (P=0.32); patients with (n=6) or without (n=2) co-occurring TP53 mutations had a median OS of 23.4 months and 34.8 months repectively (P=0.27).

      Conclusion:
      EGFR and TP53 gene accompanied may have less correlation with CDKN2A mutation in NSCLC patients. CDK4/6 inhibitor palbociclib drugs may displayed moderated efficacy in patients with CDKN2A mutation.The findings of this study could facilitate the identification of therapeutic target candidates for precision medicine of NSCLC

      P1.02-056 - BRAF Non-V600E Mutations Recurrently Found in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer in Chinese Patients (ID 8291)

      09:30 - 16:00  |  Presenting Author(s): Meiyu Fang

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      Approximately half of BRAF-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harbor a BRAF non-V600E mutation. Because of the rarity of those mutations, associated clinical features and prognostic significance have not been thoroughly described so far.

      Method:
      A total of 2979 patients with non-small-cell lung cancer were recruited between July 2012 and December 2014. The status of BRAF mutation and other genes were detected by pyrophosphate sequencing or the next generation sequencing.

      Result:
      BRAF gene mutation rate was 0.91% (27/2979) in NSCLC, and median overall survival (OS) for these patients was 14.0 months. Among them, 17 BRAF non-V600E patients (A308T, A569T, V377D, R626K, P345T, Q530*, A320T, G652E, N581S, T167I, G466V, L597V, D594G, D594G, R389C, G469A, W531S, 62.96%) had a median OS of 11.9 months, and median OS of the 10 BRAF V600E patients (37.04%) was 24.3 months. Statistically significant difference was found between the two groups (P=0.03). Briefly, patients with (n=2)(non-V600E), (n=3)(V600E) or without (n=22) co-occurring EGFR mutations had a median OS of 25.6 months, 14.8 months and 14.8 months repectively (P=0.43); patients with (n=12)(non-V600E), (n=4)(V600E) or without (n=11) co-occurring TP53 mutations had a median OS of 11.9 months, 26.8 months and 13.9 months repectively (P=0.23); patients with (n=2)(non-V600E), (n=1)(V600E) or without (n=24) co-occurring ATM mutations had a median OS of 25.8 months, 16.0 months and 12.9 months repectively (P=0.71); patients with (n=3)(non-V600E), or without (n=24) co-occurring KRAS mutations had a median OS of 10.4 months and 15.3 months repectively (P=0.14); patients with (n=5)(non-V600E), or without (n=22) co-occurring DNMT3A mutations had a median OS of 13.4 months and 15.3 months repectively (P=0.22).

      Conclusion:
      This one of the largest series of patients with BRAF mutant NSCLC. Our clinical datas suggest that BRAF non-V600E mutations define specific subsets of patients with NSCLC, the value of BRAF non-V600E mutations are poor prognosis than V600E mutations. And it may benefit from combined targeted therapy with a RAF inhibitor and a MEK-inhibitor in treating BRAF non-V600E mutantion NSCLC.

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      The MET receptor tyrosine kinase and its ligand, hepatocyte growth factor, is identified as a treatment target in lung cancer. c-MET gene abnormality can be distributed to various mechanisms including: overexpression, kinase activation, exon mutation, and amplification. c-MET gene amplification has been described as one of the reasons responsible for acquired EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor resistance. The aim of this study is to investigate the clinical value of c-MET gene amplification non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) blocks cell from pleural effusion.

      Method:
      Two hundred and fifeen cases of c-MET gene amplification non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) blocks cell from pleural effusion, Four hundred and four cases of tissues were detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method. The consistency of c-MET amplification was examined in 74 cases of patients with tissues and cell blocks.

      Result:
      c-MET amplification was found in 31 of 215 cell blocks (positive detection rate of 14.42%). c-MET amplification was detected in 35 of 404 tissue blocks (positive detection rate of 8.66%). There were 68cases in the 74 (91.89%) cases had the same consistency as tissue block. c-MET amplification was detected in 9 of 74 (12.16%) cell blocks, and 13 of 74 (17.57%) tissue blocks.

      Conclusion:
      The rate of c-MET amplification in cell blocks of NSCLC is higher than in matched tissue blocks. The patients with malignant pleural effusion are likely to tend c-MET amplification.

      NFE2L2 gene mutation was detected in 2.40% (9/375) in NSCLC patients, including R34Q (2 patients), R34G (2 patient), D77Y (2 patients), D29N (1 patient), E79Q (1 patient) and D29H (1 patient), stage of IIIB-IV was much higher than IA-IIIA (9.76% vs 0.34%, P<0.001), and smoker was much higher than no-smoker (4.14% vs 0.97%, P<0.001). The median overall survival (OS) for these patients was 33.6 months. Among them, 7 patients with co-occurring mutations had a median OS of 37.4 months, and median OS of the 2 patient without complex mutations was 18.1 months. No statistically significant difference was found between the two groups (P=0.12). Briefly, patients with (n=4) or without (n=5) co-occurring EGFR mutations had a median OS of 33.6 months and 28.6 months repectively (P=0.76); patients with (n=4) or without (n=5) co-occurring TP53 mutations had a median OS of 33.6 months and 19.7 months repectively (P=0.88); patients with (n=2) or without (n=7) co-occurring DNMT3A mutations had a median OS of 37.4 months and 26.7 months repectively (P=0.72).

      Conclusion:
      There are some significant difference of clinical features in NFE2L2 gene mutations with smoking advance non-small-cell lung cancer. TP53 accompanied mutations might play a good prognosis in NFE2L2 gene mutation non-small cell lung cancer.

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      No definitive chemotherapeutic regimen has been established in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who failed second-or third-line treatment. The study of this aim is to investigate the effect of apatinib in advanced non-small cell lung cancer.

      Method:
      72 patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer treated in our hospital from March 2014 to March 2016 were selected and given oral apatinib (750mg, qd) to tumor progression, death or toxicity intolerance so far. The objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), progression free survival (PFS), and toxic side effects were observed and observed. Single factor analysis was used to compare the relationship between the clinical features and PFS.

      Result:
      The median PFS of the patients was 4.8 months (95%CI:4.7-5.0). The results of single factor analysis showed that there were no significant differences between different gender, age, PS score, histological type, drive gene mutation and metastasis foci, the number of metastasis, metastasis, treatment history, line number and duration of treatment in patients with PFS (P>0.05). The ORR of this group was 13.89%, DCR was 83.33%. According to the clinical data of 72 patients in the treatment of patients with the clinical efficacy of the waterfall plot, we can see that there are 54 cases of patients with lesions to reduce the diameter of tumor lesions as the effective treatment of the standard, there were 10 patients with of PR. There are various types of adverse events occurred in 60 patients, the incidence rate was 83.33%, including 22 cases (30.55%) for the aged III.

      Conclusion:
      Apatinib is a effective and safe treatment in advanced non-small cell lung cancer, and can be carried out more in-depth research and application in clinic.

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      The cases of pulmonary mucoepidermoid carcinoma (PMEC) are extremely rare. There is only limited data on treatment outcome for chemotherapy in PMEC, and less so for targeted therapy such as targeted therapy with icotinib. The aim of this study is to investigate the molecular characteristics of pulmonary mucoepidermoid carcinoma (PMEC).

      Method:
      From July 2013 to December 2016, 13 PMEC patients received treatment. All the patients were diagnosed by pathology. We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data and genetic state.

      Result:
      EGFR mutation rate was 15.38% (2/13), and 2 cases were both L861Q point mutations, the relationship between EGFR gene status and gender (P=1.000), age (P=1.000), smoking (P=0.848) and stage (P=1.000) were no significant, respectively; the positive rate of MAML2 fusion gene was 45.45%(5/11). the relationship between MAML2 fusion gene status and gender (P=0.521), age (P=0.521), smoking (P=1.000) and stage (P=0.924) were no significant, respectively.

      Conclusion:
      The most common form change of pulmonary mucoepidermoid carcinoma is EGFR gene L861Q point mutation, MALM2 fusion gene exist in the EGFR gene wild type patients. icotinib treatment may benefit from patients with EGFR L861Q point mutations and MALM2 fusion gene.

      P2.02-007 - Molecular Spectrum of STK11 Gene Mutations in Patients with Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer in Chinese Patients (ID 8289)

      09:30 - 16:00  |  Author(s): Meiyu Fang

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      STK11 is commonly mutated in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In light of recent experimental data showing that specific STK11 mutantion can acquire oncogenic activities due to the synthesis of a short STK11 isoform, The aim of this study is to investigate whether this new classification of STK11 mutants can help refine its role as a prognostic marker.

      Method:
      A total of 879 patients with NSCLC were recruited between July 2012 and December 2014. The status of STK11 mutation and other genes were detected by the next generation sequencing (NGS).

      Result:
      STK11 gene mutation rate was 0.91% (8/879) in NSCLC, including p.K269fs*18 (1 patient), p.K329stop (1 patient), c.464 plus 1G>T (1 patient), p.D194E (1 patient), p.D176V (1 patient), p.D53Tfs*11 (1 patient), p.D194A (1 patient) and p.Y118* (1 patient), and median overall survival (OS) for these patients was 22.2 months. Among them, all patients were STK11 gene with co-occurring mutations. Briefly, patients with (n=2) or without (n=6) co-occurring EGFR mutations had a median OS of 29.0 months and 22.2 months repectively (P=0.73); patients with (n=5) or without (n=3) co-occurring TP53 mutations had a median OS of 29.0 months and 22.2 months repectively (P=0.95); patients with (n=3) or without (n=5) co-occurring KRAS mutations had a median OS of not reached so far and 13.8 months repectively (P=0.02); patients with (n=2) or without (n=6) co-occurring SMARCA4 mutations had a median OS of 14.0 months and 37.0 months repectively (P=0.11); patients with (n=3) or without (n=5) co-occurring KEAP1 mutations had a median OS of not reached so far and 14.6 months repectively (P=0.20).

      Conclusion:
      STK11 mutations represent a distinct subset of NSCLC. NGS showed that STK11 mutations commonly co-existed with other driver genes. Our results show that STK11 mutations delineate an aggressive subtype of lung cancer for which a targeted treatment through STK11 inhibition might offer new opportunities.

      P2.02-020 - Molecular Characteristics of Patients with PTEN Mutations in Chinese Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (ID 8292)

      09:30 - 16:00  |  Presenting Author(s): Meiyu Fang

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      Phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) is a known tumor suppressor in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Because of the rarity of those mutations, associated clinical features and prognostic significance have not been thoroughly described so far. The aim of this study is to investigate mutations and prognosis of NSCLC harboring PTEN mutations.

      Method:
      A total of 402 patients with non-small-cell lung cancer were recruited between July 2012 and December 2014. The status of PTEN mutation and other genes were detected by the next generation sequencing.

      Result:
      PTEN gene mutation was detected in 1.99% (8/402) NSCLC patients, including A333fs*10 (2 patients), D252N (1 patient), P38S (1 patient), Q171E (1 patient), S59* (1 patient), S10R(1 patient) and Y225Ifs*18(1 patient), and median overall survival (OS) for these patients was 19.7 months. Among them, 7 patients with co-occurring mutations had a median OS of 23.3 months, and OS of the 1 patient without complex mutations was 14.6 months. No statistically significant difference was found between the two groups (P=0.35). Briefly, patients with (n=5) or without (n=3) co-occurring EGFR mutations had a median OS of 33.6 months and 16.0 months repectively (P=0.33); patients with (n=4) or without (n=4) co-occurring TP53 mutations had a median OS of 14.9 months and 33.5 months repectively (P=0.18); patients with (n=2) or without (n=6) co-occurring DNMT3A mutations had a median OS of 17.8 months and 24.8 months repectively (P=0.27).

      Conclusion:
      Our results demonstrated that decreased PTEN gene mutation correlated with poor overall survival in non-small-cell lung cancer patients. PTEN gene mutation may define a subset of patients with lung cancer appropriate for investigational therapeutic strategies.

      P2.02-021 - Prevalence of PTPRD Gene Mutations in Chinese Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients (ID 8311)

      09:30 - 16:00  |  Presenting Author(s): Meiyu Fang

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      PTPRD, encoding protein tyrosine phosphatases receptor type D, is located at chromosome 9p23-24.1, a loci frequently lost in many types of tumors. Recently, PTPRD has been proposed to function as a tumor suppressor gene. The aim of this study is to investigate mutations and prognosis of non-small-cell lung cancer(NSCLC) harboring PTPRD mutations.

      Method:
      A total of 962 patients with NSCLC were recruited between July 2012 and December 2014. The status of PTPRD mutation and other genes were detected by next generation sequencing.

      Result:
      PTPRD gene mutation was detected in 0.64% (6/962) NSCLC patients, including V693F (1 patient), V330L (1 patient), T1103A (2 patients), D388Y (1 patient) and R1692G plus G1213V (1 patient), and median overall survival (OS) for these patients was 31.4 months. Among them, all patients were PTPRD gene with co-occurring mutations. Briefly, patients with (n=2) or without (n=4) co-occurring EGFR mutations had a median OS of 41.0 months and 20.6 months repectively (P=0.06); patients with (n=4) or without (n=2) co-occurring TP53 mutations had a median OS of 27.6 months and 26.0 months repectively (P=0.79).

      Conclusion:
      PTPRD gene mutation coexist with other gene mutation in NSCLC. EGFR and TP53 gene accompanied may have less correlation with PTPRD mutation in NSCLC patients. Results of ongoing studies will provide more insight into effective treatment strategies for patients with PTPRD mutations.

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      Clinical features of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations: L858R, deletions in exon 19, T790M, G719X, and L861Q in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are well-known. The clinical significance of other uncommon EGFR mutations, such as A763_Y764insFQEA, is not well understood. This study is aimed to improve the understanding of A763_Y764insFQEA, and the clinical response to icotinib of NSCLC patients with such an uncommon mutation.

      Method:
      Six cases of EGFR exon 20 A763_Y764insFQEA mutation and twelve cases of EGFR exon 20 other insert mutation NSCLC patients were retrospectively analyzed until the progress of the disease or the emergence of the side effects and clinical efficacy was observed after months of followed-up.

      Result:
      Six cases with EGFR exon 20 A763_Y764insFQEA and twelve cases of EGFR exon 20 other insert mutation NSCLC patients mutation manifested the median PFS (9.0months vs 1.2months, P<0.001). Clinical efficacy of icotinib with advanced NSCLC harboring EGFR exon 20 mutations between A763_Y764insFQEA and other insert mutation (ORR:33.33%, DCR: 100% vs ORR: 0, DCR: 16.16%).

      Conclusion:
      EGFR exon 20 A763_Y764insFQEA mutation of clinical benefit from icotinib is remarkable, and it close to the common mutation of clinical benefit. It illustrates the value of in-depth molecular testing with NGS of EGFR wild type NSCLC patients.

      P3.01-008 - Association between Icotinib Efficacy and Circulating Tumor Cell Levels in Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (ID 8253)

      09:30 - 16:00  |  Presenting Author(s): Meiyu Fang

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      Advanced non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) studies indicated a potential association between chemotherapy efficacy and circulating tumor cells (CTC) counts in peripheral blood. The icotinib efficacy and circulating tumor cells (CTC) counts in non-small cell lung cancer remain unknown. The aim is to investigate association between the icotinib efficacy and CTC counts in advanced NSCLC patients.

      Method:
      A total of 74 advanced NSCLC patients consented to provide 5ml of peripheral blood before systematic therapy, and divided into two groups (those with high CTC counts and those with low CTC counts) based on the patients′ median CTC counts. All the patients were treated with icotinib, and the icotinib efficacy and prognoses were compared.

      Result:
      The treatment efficacies were 46.88% (15/32) and 23.81% (10/42) for the low CTC group and the high CTC group, respectively. The median overall survival was 22.0 months (95%CI: 19.6-28.7 months) for the low CTC group and 18.3 months (95% CI: 15.3-25.4 months) for the high CTC group. The median progression-free survival was 11.6 months (95% CI: 8.7-15.6 months) and 7.2 months (95% CI: 3.4-8.7 months) for the low group and the high CTC group, respectively.

      Conclusion:
      The CTC counts can be used as a important biomarker for therapy monitoring the icotinib effect on patients with advanced NSCLC. Efficacy and prognosis of icotinib and CTC counts were considered important, and the CTC counts could be used to predict the efficacy of icotinib and prognosis of advanced NSCLC. The change in CTC count levels can be used as a biomarker for evaluating the prognosis of patients with advanced NSCLC.

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      EGFR exon 18 E709X mutation is only reported in small case numbers of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in the literature, and their influences on the effectiveness of icotinib have not been fully understood. The study of this aim is to investigate the efficacy of icotinib in patients with NSCLC that carrying EGFR exon 18 E709X mutation.

      Method:
      Three cases of EGFR exon 18 E709X mutations were retrospectively analyzed until the progress of the disease or the emergence of the side effects and clinical efficacy was observed after months of followed-up.

      Result:
      The median progression-free survival (PFS) of three cases with EGFR exon 18 E709X (E709_T710>D, E709A, E709K plus L858R) was 3.1 months, patients with complex mutations showed a better PFS than those with single mutations (7.2 months vs. 2.7 months, P=0.225). Clinical efficacy of icotinib with advanced NSCLC harboring EGFR exon 18 E709X mutation (ORR: 66.67%, DCR: 66.67%).

      Conclusion:
      Icotinib is effective in patients with exon 18 E709X mutations. Patients with complex mutations benefited more from icotinib than those with single mutations.

      P3.02-018 - Patients Harboring ALK Rearrangement Adenocarcinoma after Acquired Resistance to Crizotinib and Transformation to SCLC: A Case Report (ID 8244)

      09:30 - 16:00  |  Presenting Author(s): Meiyu Fang

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      Anaplastic lymphoma kinase(ALK) rearrangement responds to ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in lung cancer. Many cases ultimately acquired resistance to crizotinib. Resistance mechanisms have been described including ALK dominant or ALK non-dominant. A mechanism of transformation to small-cell lung cancer is rare.

      Method:
      A 54-year-old male diagnosed with adenocarcinoma, who shown EGFR wild and ALK rearrangement detected by RT-PCR and treatment with crizotinib. A re-biopsy showed a small cell lung cancer after disease progression.

      Result:
      The next generation sequencing (NGS) was carried out and it detected TP53 gene mutation and ALK rearrangement, no loss of retinoblastoma gene (RB). Regimen for small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) may be one of the treatment options. However, the heterogeneous tumor may be at diagnosed and the course of disease.

      Conclusion:
      Oncologists should realize the possibility of transformation to SCLC after patients acquire resistance to ALK-TKI therapy. A re-biopsy should be performed to enable histological and detect molecular analysis. And finding transformation to SCLC is important for choosing appropriate therapy due to the potential efficacy of standard SCLC treatments or combination of next generation AKL-TKIs.

      09:30 - 16:00  |  Author(s): Meiyu Fang

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      Due to a low frequency of pulmonary neuroendocrine carcinoma, little is known for its molecular aberrations and prognosis. The aim of this study is to investigate the characteristics of surgical resected pulmonary neuroendocrine carcinoma and to analyze the prognostic factors.

      Method:
      We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data and genetic status from 65 patients with pulmonary neuroendocrine carcinoma[small-cell cancer (SCLC), n=26; large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (PLCNC), n=34; carcinoid, n=5], and the survival rate was calculated by Kaplan-Meiermethod and log-rank test was used to compare the survival rates. Univariate and multivariate factors for survival were analyzed by COX proportional hazards regression model.

      Result:
      There was no significant difference with clinical characteristics in 65 cases of pulmonary neuroendocrine carcinoma (P>0.05); The genetic change was given priority to with PIK3CA gene mutations, SCLC and PLCNC and carcinoid the median overall survival time (26.7 months vs 30.4 months vs did not reach) (P=0.039) and staging was differences statistically significant by the single factor analysis in SCLC (P<0.05).

      Conclusion:
      Pulmonary neuroendocrine carcinoma genetic change was rare, and it is given priority to with PIK3CA gene mutations, common genomic aberrations are rare for PNC. Molecular profiles vary widely among different subtypes of PNC. Carcinoid offers better survival than PLCNC and SCLC, whereas no survival difference existed between PLCNC and SCLC.

      P3.02-026 - The Study of ROS1 Rearrangement in Advanced Primary Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer and Associated Metastatic Lesions (ID 8281)

      09:30 - 16:00  |  Author(s): Meiyu Fang

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      ROS1 rearrangement in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) patients has recently been identified as a driver gene and benefited from crizotinib treatment. However, no data are available for ROS1 rearrangement NSCLC about relationship between primary and metastatic patients. The aim of this study is to examine the positive rate of ROS1 rearrangement in primary and metastatic NSCLC, and to investigate their relationships.

      Method:
      From January 2013 to May 2015, 384 cases of primary NSCLC consisting of 246 cases of matched metastatic tumors and 47 cases of normal lung specimens as the control group were collected in multicenter. The positive rate of ROS1 rearrangement among NSCLC population was figured out, thus the consistency of ROS1 rearrangement in advanced primary NSCLC and associated metastases and the relationship between ROS1 rearrangement and clinical data was analyzed.

      Result:
      The positive rate of ROS1 rearrangement on primary tumor was 2.60% (10/384). For those 246 paired cases, the positive rate on primary tumor was 2.85% (7/246), with that of metastases 1.63% (4/246). Among the 246 cases, there was one case whose metastases was positive, primary tumors negative and 4 case whose primary tumor were positive, metastases were negative. Positive rate of ROS1 rearrangement was higher in the primary lesions than metastases. It was of statistical significance between the two groups (χ[2]=52.341, P<0.001). The positive rate of primary tumors could be predicted by metastases (κ=0.536, P<0.001). The sensitivity was 42.86% (3/7) and the specificity was 99.58% (238/239).

      Conclusion:
      The metastases of NSCLC can predict ROS1 rearrangement of the primary lesions. It can be used as alternative means for metastases to detect ROS1 rearrangement which are not readily available.

      P3.02-027 - Lung Adenocarcinoma Patient with EGFR 19 Exon Insert Mutation: I740_K745insIPVAIK and Its Response to Icotinib: A Case Report (ID 8287)

      09:30 - 16:00  |  Author(s): Meiyu Fang

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      Screening for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutation before choosing a therapeutic strategy for patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is universally accepted at present. One of the reasons that certain patients without activating EGFR mutation respond to EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment is possibly due to false-negative EGFR mutation. However, none of the available methods can provide the entire information of EGFR mutation; while maintaining the best sensitivity and specificity. Uncommon mutations are often evasive due to the limitation of screening methods.

      Method:
      A 74-year-old smoking male diagnosed with adenocarcinoma, who detected EGFR gene by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and the next generation sequencing (NGS)

      Result:
      Histopathological observations with hematoxylin and eosin staining was shown adenocarcinoma, Immunohistochemical staining for the expression of TTF-1, NapsinA and CK7. The gene detected by RT-PCR that found EGFR wild type, but it found EGFR p.I740_K745insIPVAIK and BRCA2 p.C315S by NGS. Albeit rare, this specific type of EGFR mutation deserves more attention because it was related to a good response to EGFR-TKI therapy. The patient received icotinib therapy, and icotinib therapy showed a good response. We report here, to our knowledge, the first case received icotinib in mainland China of EGFR exon 19 insert.

      Conclusion:
      To reduce the frequency of false negatives, hence not to lose any opportunities for a potential icotinib treatment, NGS for EGFR mutation examination according to the specimen quality and quantity (tumor load and DNA yield) is proposed.

      • Slides

      Background:
      A new lung adenocarcinoma classification proposed by WHO (2015) classification of tumors of the lung has recently been published. The aim of this study is to investigate the mutations of EGFR gene and ALK fusion gene in Chinese surgically resected lung adenocarcinomas.

      Method:
      Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect the tissues in 276 patients of surgically resected lung adenocarcinomas with paraffin tissue EGFR gene mutation and ALK fusion gene.

      Result:
      The total mutation rate in 276 patients of surgically resected lung adenocarcinomas was 54.71% (151/276). EGFR gene mutation rate were found in 19del (28.99%, 80/276), L858R (23.19%, 64/276), 20-ins (0.72%, 2/276), L861Q (0.72%, 2/276), G719X (1.09%, 3/276), S768I (0.36%, 1/276) and T790M (0.72%, 2/276) in surgically resected lung adenocarcinomas, including one case of G719X plus S768I, 19del plus T790M, L858R plus T790M, respectively. The total fusion positive rate in 207 patients of surgically resected lung adenocarcinomas was 5.80% (12/207). There were statistically significant (P<0.001, P<0.001, P=0.023, P<0.001 and P=0.030) in each subtype of lung adenocarcinoma of EGFR gene mutation, including lepidic predominant adenocarcinoma, acinar predominant adenocarcinoma, papillary predominant adenocarcinoma, solid predominant adenocarcinoma and invasive mucous adenocarcinoma, and there were not statistically significant(P>0.05) among other types. There were not statistically significant(P>0.05) among each types of lung adenocarcinoma of ALK fusion gene.

      Conclusion:
      Histologic subtyping was found to be associated with EGFR mutations. The EGFR mutation frequency of lepidic predominant, acinar predominant and papillary predominant subtypes was found to be more pronounced than that of other subtypes.

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      Adenosquamous carcinoma is a rare subtype of lung cancer, it is mixed glandular and squamous cell carcinoma with a more aggressive behavior and poor prognosis than the other histologic subtypes. The aim of this study is to investigate the characteristics of lung adenosquamous carcinoma and to analyze the prognostic factors.

      Method:
      The reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method was used to detect the tissues in 95 patients of lung adenosquamous carcinoma with paraffin tissue EGFR gene mutation and ALK fusion gene. And the survival rate was calculated by Kaplan-Meiermethod and log-rank test was used to compare the survival rates. Univariate and multivariate factors for survival were analyzed by COX proportional hazards regression model.

      Result:
      95 cases of lung adenosquamous carcinoma were males, more than 60 years old and smoking patients predominant; COX univariate analysis revealed that gender, age, smoking history, EGFR gene status, ALK fusion gene status, stage, subtype patterns and subtype type were prognostic factors for lung adenosquamous carcinoma. COX multivariate analysis found that stage, subtype patterns and subtype type were independent prognostic factors for lung adenosquamous carcinoma (P<0.05).

      Conclusion:
      Lung adenosquamous carcinoma mainly occurred in men patients over 60 years old with smoking. Stage, subtype patterns and subtype type are the crucial prognostic factors for lung adenosquamous carcinoma.

      P3.02-069 - 58 Cases of EGFR/ALK Gene Status Anaysis in Pulmonary Sarcomatoid Carcinoma (ID 8276)

      09:30 - 16:00  |  Presenting Author(s): Meiyu Fang

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      Sarcomatoid carcinomas are a rare type of cancer found in the lung and other organs. The aim of this study is to investigate the characteristics of pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma (PSC) and to analyze the prognostic factors.

      Method:
      Fifty-eight patients with pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma were retrospectively reviewed on the clinical data and genetic state, and the survival rate was calculated by Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test was used to compare the survival rates. Univariate and multivariate factors for survival were analyzed by COX proportional hazards regression model.

      Result:
      Fifty-eight cases of pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma were men, less than 65 years old and smoking patients predominant; COX univariate analysis revealed that gender, age, smoking history, EGFR gene status, ALK fusion gene status, stage, histologic subtype were prognostic factors for pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma. COX multivariate analysis found that ALK fusion gene status, histologic subtype were independent prognostic factors for pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma (P<0.05).

      Conclusion:
      There is no specificity in the clinical characteristics of PSC and its successful diagnosis depends on pathological analysis. ALK fusion status and histologic subtype are the crucial prognostic factors for pulmonary sarcomatoid carcinoma.

      P3.02-080 - DNMT3A Defines a Unique Molecular Class of Chinese Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients (ID 8313)

      09:30 - 16:00  |  Author(s): Meiyu Fang

      • Abstract
      • Slides

      Background:
      DNMT3A mutation is detected in approximately 18%-23% newly diagnosed AML patients, while the mutation is less frequently detected in cancer. The aim of this study is to investigate mutations and prognosis of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring DNMT3A mutations.

      Method:
      A total of 1367 patients with NSCLC were recruited between July 2012 and December 2014. The status of DNMT3A mutation and other genes were detected by next generation sequencing.

      Result:
      DMNT3A gene mutation was detected in 1.1% (15/1367) NSCLC patients, including p.V636M (1 patient), p.Y735C (1 patient), p.Y660F (1 patient), p.R183W (1 patient), p.Q653H (1 patient), p.A741P (1 patient), p.Q226* (1 patient), p.D340Y (1 patient), p.A398T (1 patient), p.A187T (1 patient), p.A910V (1 patient), p.R729W (1 patient), p.S770L (1 patient), c.1755+1G>T (1 patient) and G510D plus F545V plus R582Q (1 patient), and median overall survival (OS) for these patients was 19.7 months. Among them, all patients were DNMT3A gene with co-occurring mutations. Briefly, patients with (n=11) or without (n=4) co-occurring EGFR mutations had a median OS of 19.1 months and 22.9 months repectively (P=0.82);patients with (n=13) or without (n=2) co-occurring TP53 mutations had a median OS of 16.0 months and 29.8 months repectively (P=0.98); patients with (n=5) or without (n=10) co-occurring HER2 mutations had a median OS of 44.3 months and 14.6 months repectively (P<0.01); patients with (n=2) or without (n=13) co-occurring SMARCA4 mutations had a median OS of 32.3 months and 19.7 months repectively (P=0.43); patients with (n=2) or without (n=13) co-occurring BRCA1 mutations had a median OS of 29.6 months and 19.7 months repectively (P=0.93).

      Conclusion:
      EGFR, TP53, HER2, SMARCA4 and BRCA1 gene accompanied may have less correlation with DNMT3A mutation in NSCLC patients. Chemotherapy drugs may displayed moderated efficacy in patients with DMNT3A mutation. Analysis of DNMT3A mutations shows promise as a way to refine individual patients with NSCLC, and provides a platform for further research to offer individualized therapy with the purpose of improving outcomes.
