Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene-mutated non-small cell lung cancer may initially respond to EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), but may subsequently become resistant; however, the resistance mechanisms remain unclear. We report a rare case of acquired resistance to osimertinib associated with transformation to small cell lung cancer (SCLC) with cis-C797S mutation. A man with recurrent lung adenocarcinoma harboring an EGFR exon 19 deletion received erlotinib for 10 months following curative surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy. However, he switched to osimertinib after repeat biopsy showed EGFR exon 19 deletion and T790M mutation leading to erlotinib resistance. His disease progressed after 15 months and repeat biopsy showed SCLC. Next-generation sequencing of peripheral blood detected EGFR exon 19 deletion, T790M mutation, cis-C797S mutation, and RB1 inactivation. The tumor was reduced after four cycles of etoposide and cisplatin and his respiratory symptoms improved. However, computed tomography after six cycles of chemotherapy showed multiple bilateral lung lesions, and single-photon emission computed tomography showed bone metastasis. The patient received paclitaxel plus cisplatin for two cycles with partial response. Because heterogeneous genetic and phenotypic mechanisms of TKI-resistance may occur at different times and locations, histopathological and molecular testing both provide evidence to support appropriate treatment.

10614 Background: As for two common types of EGFR mutations, patients with exon 19 deletion mutations have longer survival than those with the L858R point mutations in exon 21 after treatment with EGFR inhibitors. We have developed a simple, polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based method to detect exon 19 deletion mutations, and evaluated survival benefit of gefitinib treated patients with exon 19 deletion mutations versus patients without these mutations. Patients and methods: Tumor tissue was microdissected under stereoscopic microscopy from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections, and DNA was extracted from tumor cells with DNeasy (Qiagen). Our method consisted of two different semi-nested PCRs with the deletion screening PCR and the common deletion specific PCR. All of the known deletions present in cell lines were detected by this method without direct sequencing. The result was validated by sequencing of exon 19. 73 non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) Japanese patients treated with gefitinib were analyzed with this method. Study group consisted of 28 females (38%), 29 never smokers (40%) and 57 patients with adenocarcinoma (78%). Results: The PCR-based method detected mutations at mutant to wild type DNA copy ratio of 1/600, and in samples as small as 30 ng of purified DNA. Exon 19 deletion mutations were found in 25 (34%) patients. This method was more sensitive than conventional sequencing. The sequencing was performed in 19 patients with mutations and could not detect 3 deletions. Among 60 assessable patients 14 had overall response (23%). Objective response rates to gefitinib were observed in 7/21 patients with exon 19 deletion mutations (33%), and 7/39 patients without exon 19 deletion mutations (17%) (P = .211). Patients with exon 19 deletion mutations survived significantly longer than those without exon 19 deletion mutations (P = .017). Conclusions: The PCR-based method to detect exon 19 deletion mutations is cost effective and very sensitive, compared to previously described methods. We demonstrated survival benefit in NSCLC patients with exon 19 deletion mutations treated with gefitinib, and our PCR-based method is easily applicable for clinical use.

Abstract Non–small cell lung cancer with pituitary metastasis (NSCLC-PM) is a devastating disease; however, treatment is being revolutionized by a novel therapy targeting highly specific tumor signals, such as the mutation of epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFRs). Long-term management of hormonal defects in this population has become a unique neuroendocrine clinical challenge. We report the case of a 73-year-old female nonsmoker who was diagnosed with stage IV non–small cell lung cancer. The initial staging evaluation revealed a 7 × 11 × 21-mm sellar lesion abutting the optic chiasm and causing clinical hypopituitarism. The patient received three cycles of chemotherapy with carboplatin and pemetrexed, which was discontinued because of major cumulative side effects of myelosuppression and kidney disease. Eight months later, scans demonstrated evidence of disease progression. A repeated lung nodule biopsy revealed an EGFR exon 19 deletion mutation. EGFR-targeted therapy with osimertinib 80 mg daily was initiated. A complete resolution of the pituitary lesion was evident on a follow-up pituitary MRI 5 weeks later and was sustained 1 year after. However, the panhypopituitarism persisted. This is an illustrative case of NSCLC-PM with EGFR exon 19 deletion mutation, wherein osimertinib, a third-generation EGFR‒tyrosine kinase inhibitor, eradicated the sellar metastasis and prevented the need for radiotherapy. However, the neuroendocrine deficits persisted despite anatomic improvement.
