Background
EGFR and HER2 mutations are usually associated with never-smokers while KRAS and BRAF mutations are thought to be link with smoking behavior in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC). Passive smoking exposure is a well-known risk factor for lung cancer. Only EGFR and KRAS mutations were investigated in association with passive smoking and showed conflicting results. We aimed to investigate mutation rate of EGFR, HER2, KRAS, BRAF and ALK in a cohort of never smokers regarding their passive smoke exposure.Methods
The BioCAST / IFCT-1002 study is a prospective cohort of NSCLC patients diagnosed in French never-smokers patients (less than 100 cigarettes in lifetime) between November 2011 and January 2013, Passive smoking exposure was evaluated through standardized questionnaire. We obtained biomarkers mutation results through routine testing. We used Fisher, Chi-square, median test and Mann-Whitney U test for comparisons as appropriate. We used logistic regression to calculate adjusted odds ratio for risk of each mutations.Results
Out of the 384 patients included in the BioCAST database, 334 (87.0%) had available data on passive smoking exposure. Among them, 219 patients (65.6%) were ever exposed to passive smoking in their lifetime. 198 (59.3%) reported a domestic exposure (122 during childhood at least) and 60 (18.0%) a workplace exposure. Result of at least one biomarker mutation was available in 313 patients (93.7%). including 128 EGFR mutations in 297 patients, 8/174 HER2 mutations, 18/256 KRAS mutations, 10/196 BRAF mutations, and 20/171 ALK gene rearrangements. We found no difference in mutation rate according to passive smoke exposure (cf. Table 1). There was no difference when comparing cumulative year of exposure, smoker-year or passive-pack year (as continuous variable) to the mutation rate, for any biomarker. When considered as categorical variable – after division in quartiles – we found also no difference. Results were similar when focusing on domestic (childhood versus adulthood included) and workplace exposure only. Finally, we found no significant increased risk for mutation for any biomarker in logistic regression adjusted for most of other lung cancer risk factors.EGFR Mt (n=297) HER2 Mt (n=171) KRAS Mt (n=256) BRAF Mt (n=196) ALK Fusion (n=171) % % % % % Overall exposure Never 46.5 3.5 6.7 5.9 13.0 Ever 41.3 5.1 7.2 4.7 11.1 Domestic exposure Never 45.8 2.9 7.7 6.4 11.1 Ever 41.3 5.7 6.6 4.2 12.0 Exposure at workplace Never 43.3 5.5 7.0 5.4 12.2 Ever 42.3 0 7.0 3.6 8.3 Total 43.1 4.6 7.0 5.1 11.7 Exposure in childhood Ever 40.5 3.0 6.5 2.7 14.7 Only in adulthood 42.6 10.3 6.8 6.7 7.5 Conclusion
Although we report the largest and more comprehensive study focusing on this topic, we found no significant difference in the biomarker mutation profile of NSCLC occurring in French never-smokers regarding their exposure to passive smoking as compared with the pattern of mutations described never-smoker patients with any passive smoking.Only Members that have purchased this event or have registered via an access code will be able to view this content.
