      Background

      Brain metastases(BM) develop in ~45% of patients with EGFR mutant(EGFRm) non-small cell lung cancers(NSCLC). There are limited reports on clinical/molecular factors associated with BM outcomes after radiotherapy in EGFRm NSCLC patients.

      We identified patients with EGFRm NSCLC who presented with or developed BM and had their lung tumor resected. Clinical, demographic and TP53 status were collected from medical/pathology records. Whole-Exome Sequencing of the primary tumor was performed. Overall survival(OS) and intracranial progression(IP) were defined from start of BM treatment and correlated with clinical/molecular features. IP was defined from the date of BM treatment until any brain failure, either local(previously present BM) or distant(development of new BM). Categorical and continuous covariates were tested by Fisher exact or Mann-Whitney test, respectively. OS by Kaplan-Meier with groups compared by log-rank. For each model the Harrell Concordance Index(CI) was performed.

      From 41 eligible patients with BM, 9 were excluded due to sequencing quality. Of the 32 remaining patients, 20 (62%) had their BM treated with WBI (15 WBI alone and 5 TKIàWBI), 12 (38%) with TKI±SRS (9 TKI àSRS; 2 TKI alone and 1 SRS alone). Median age at BM was 59.5 years(y). Most of the cohort were female(81%), non-smoker(78%), non-Asian(62%) and 50% presented as stage III or higher at diagnosis. An EGFR exon 19 mutation was present in 72% of patients, 25% had 2 or more EGFRm, 15% with additional driver mutations and 53% with TP53 co-mutation. At a median follow-up of 1.21-y, no clinical/molecular factors(treatment, age, gender, ethnicity, smoking status, stage at presentation, EFGR exon 19 versus 21, number of EGFRm, additional driver mutations, TP53 co-mutation) correlated with survival. There was a trend for longer survival for patients treated with TKI±SRS(median 3.4y) compared to WBRT±TKI(median 1.4y); p=0.08 and for age at BM ≤59.5y(median 2.5y) compared to >59.5y (median 1.4y); p=0.2. Higher risk of IP was observed in younger patients (age as continuous variable) with HR of 0.94(95%CI 0.88-1.0), p=0.04; favoring older patients and remained significant after accounting for treatment modality on multivariate analysis p=0.03. No additional clinical/molecular factors correlated with IP.

      8eea62084ca7e541d918e823422bd82e Conclusion

      In our study, younger age at BM treatment was associated with higher IP. We also observed a trend for longer OS for younger patients(≤59.5y) and for patients treated with TKI±SRS. Our data suggest that younger patients with EGFR BM should undergo close intracranial follow up and that future studies to define the benefit of brain-directed multimodality treatment are warranted.
