Why Test Lung Cancer Patients for Genomic Alterations?
• Genomic alterations are common in nonsquamous NSCLC (approximately 50%) • Targeted therapies produce better treatment outcomes (eg, higher response rates, improved quality of life) compared with chemotherapy as treatment of NSCLC with genomic alterations • Immunotherapy has low efficacy and a high risk of serious adverse events in patients with NSCLC with molecular driver alterations
Which Molecular Targets Are Relevant for Testing in NSCLC?
Molecular alterations to test for in patients with newly diagnosed stage IV NSCLC
Genotypes with approved Genotypes with emerging targeted therapies targeted therapies q EGFR mutations q EGFR exon 20 mutations q ALK rearrangements q HER2 mutations q ROS1 rearrangements q KRAS G12C mutations q BRAF V600E mutations q MET amplifications q NTRK fusions q Many other promising targets q MET exon 14 skipping mutations with matched therapies are q RET fusions undergoing investigation in trials

Who Needs Molecular Testing and When Should it Occur?
q Step 1: Distinguish between small cell lung cancer vs non–small cell lung cancer q Step 2: If NSCLC à determine subtype (squamous, adenocarcinoma, large cell, etc) q Step 3: Upfront molecular testing à all patients with newly diagnosed stage IV NSCLCa should undergo molecular testing as quickly as possible to guide therapeutic decisions ü Adenocarcinoma ü Adenosquamous ü NOS ü Other nonsquamous histologies ü Squamous, if atypical presentation (light/never smoker) or incompletely sampled q Step 4: Molecular testing should be repeated when patients develop resistance or disease progression while on targeted therapy
Which Molecular Testing Techniques Should be Used for Detection of Dierent Molecular Alterations in NSCLC?1
q Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is increasingly used for molecular testing in NSCLC ü Massively parallel approach that relies heavily on automation, data storage, and computational processing ü Overcomes many of the shortcomings of direct sequencing and allele-specific testing ü Allows quantitative analysis of infrequent alleles and simultaneous evaluation of multiple genes or even whole genomes ü Retains sensitivity even in specimens with low tumor cellularity ü Can identify new abnormalities that would not be detected by allele-specific testing ü Can often detect abnormalities that would historically be tested by FISH ü Upfront use of NGS has been found to be associated with substantial cost savings and shorter time-to-test results vs single gene testing strategies q Selection of testing method: Ensure the test can detect gene fusions and other alterations in addition to mutations ü DNA–NGS for mutations + rearrangements + amplifications • May not catch all rearrangements/fusions and has a low resolution for amplifications ü RNA–NGS for rearrangements is associated with improved detection of fusion events • RNA preserved with FFPE has a high fail rate

When Should Liquid Biopsies Be Considered for Use?
• NCCN guidelines recommend plasma-based testing for all patients with advanced-stage, treatment-naïve lung cancer for whom tissue sampling may be infeasible or insufficient • Recent studies found that simultaneously adding plasma ctDNA analysis to tissue testing 75% enhanced the chances of detecting a relevant actionable mutation more actionable • Based on these findings, it is reasonable to consider plasma-based testing for every mutations found patient with advanced-stage, treatment-naïve lung cancer who has a tissue biopsy with tissue + • A new tissue biopsy and/or ctDNA plasma test also needs to occur when patients with plasma vs genotype-directed NSCLC develop resistance/disease progression while on targeted tissue alone TKI therapy
a There is emerging evidence from the ADAURA (osimertinib) trial that it may be beneficial to test for EGFR mutations in earlier disease settings (eg, stage I to stage III) and treat patients with EGFR TKI therapy following surgery. The recommended testing guidelines may change based on the results of this trial to include all patients (stage IB to stage IV) with newly diagnosed NSCLC.
