      Background:
      Liquid biopsy is a promising approach to improve the management of NSCLC patients, offering a minimally-invasive alternative to tumor tissue testing and enabling timely monitoring of patients on-therapy. The goal of the present study was to evaluate the performance of the OncoBEAM EGFR plasma vs EGFR tissue testing across 19 Spanish hospitals and to examine the timing of T790M mutation emergence in patients during first-line EGFR TKI therapy with respect to radiological progression.

      Method:
      Blood samples from 112 therapy-naïve advanced NSCLC patients were collected at baseline and throughout EGFR TKI therapy. Results from OncoBEAM EGFR mutation were performed by Sysmex in Hamburg, Germany and then compared to those obtained by the initial EGFR tissue testing obtained at the referring hospital. In addition, the time at which T790M was first detected was compared to the date of progression determined by radiological imaging.

      Result:
      112 stage IV NSCLC patients (p) were enrolled between Nov 2016 and May 2017. Clinical characteristics: median age 65 y. , 81 female. Smoking pattern: never 70 p (62,5%), former 33 p (29.4%) and active 9 (8%). M1a 28 p (25%), M1b only brain 10 p (8.9%), only bone 17 p (15%). Baseline tissue samples: Exon 19 deletion 74 p (66%) , L858R 38 p (34%). Initial positive percent agreement (PPA) in 69 out of 112 p was 52/69 or 75.4%. Interestingly, the agreement between plasma and tissue EGFR mutation results for patients diagnosed at M0 was 56%, versus 81% with patients diagnosed at M1. In addition, the average number of days between tissue biopsy and blood collection for concordant cases was 128 days, versus 358 days for discordant cases. Currently, the tissue EGFR mutation status of all discordant cases is being re-examined using BEAMing. Preliminary results from serial T790M plasma analyses revealed cases where detection by OncoBEAM was observed several weeks prior to documented progression by imaging. More mature results will be available at the time of the meeting

      Conclusion:
      Overall, these initial results show high PPA of plasma and tissue EGFR mutation status at baseline. Moreover, early detection of T790M in blood may assist in anticipating resistance to first-line EGFR TKI therapy.

      P3.01-005 - ASTRIS: A Real World Study of Osimertinib Treatment in Patients with EGFR T790M Positive Advanced NSCLC; Interim Analysis (ID 7884)

      09:30 - 16:00  |  Author(s): A. Paredes

      Background:
      Osimertinib is a third-generation, CNS active EGFR-TKI that potently and selectively inhibits both EGFR-sensitizing and EGFR T790M resistance mutations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). We report interim clinical and molecular diagnostic testing results from a predefined interim analysis of the ongoing ASTRIS study (NCT02474355).

      Method:
      Patients (pts) received osimertinib 80 mg once daily. Eligible pts had advanced NSCLC that had progressed on prior EGFR-TKI therapy and with a T790M mutation determined by local validated molecular test, WHO performance status (PS) 0−2, acceptable organ and bone marrow function and no history of interstitial lung disease or QTc prolongation. Asymptomatic, stable CNS metastases were permitted. The primary efficacy outcome was overall survival; other outcomes included local test methods, specimen type, EGFR mutations identified, investigator-assessed response rate (RR), progression-free survival and time to treatment discontinuation. Safety data are also reported.

      Result:
      From 18 Sept 2015 to the planned 3 Nov 2016 data cut-off (DCO), 1217 pts received osimertinib 80 mg once-daily across 14 countries with a median age 64 yrs (27–92 yrs), 67% female, 61% White, 37% Asian, 87% WHO PS 0/1, 44% prior chemotherapy, 45% prior radiotherapy. All pts tested positive for T790M; T790M was reported alone in 185 pts (15%). The most common testing methods were PNA-Clamp 317 pts (27%), Qiagen therascreen 254 pts (22%), and Roche cobas 204 pts (17%). Exon 19 deletion was the most common co-occurring mutation with T790M (57%), followed by L858R (27%). Tissue or cytology specimens were used in 720 pts (59%), plasma in 433 pts (36%), and other specimens in 64 pts (5%). At DCO, the median duration of exposure was 3.8 months (<1–13.2 months) with a median follow-up time of 4.1 months (<1−14 months). In pts evaluable for response, the investigator-assessed RR was 64% (569/886; 95% CI 61, 67). Adverse events (AEs) leading to dose modification and treatment discontinuation were reported in 122 pts (10%) and 54 pts (4%), respectively. Serious AEs were reported in 165 pts (14%) and AEs leading to death in 28 pts (2%).

      Conclusion:
      ASTRIS is the largest reported global study of osimertinib in pts with T790M-positive NSCLC identified by a wide array of molecular testing methods and from various specimen types. Considering this breadth of T790M testing, the clinical activity of osimertinib is like that observed in the clinical trial program and no new safety signals were identified.
