      • Abstract

      Background:
      For patients with metastatic EGFR mutated NSCLC, 1[st] line treatment with EGFR TKIs such as erlotinib result in a median PFS of about 10 months. In patients with a limited number of progressing lesions, local ablation therapy (LAT) of progressive lesions followed by re-initiation of TKI has shown promise in retrospective studies but to date this strategy has not been testing in prospective fashion.

      Method:
      As part of an IRB approved open label prospective phase II trial, patients with EGFR mutated NSCLC and immediate progression on a TKI in < 5 locations were treated with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) to progressing lesions followed by re-initiation of erlotinib. Our primary endpoint was PFS, and we hypothesized that it would be at least 3 months.

      Result:
      25/40 planned patients were enrolled; data are available on 23 and will be updated prior to the conference to include 25. By local reporting, 14 had exon 19, 5 had exon 21, 1 had compound exon 18 and exon 20, 1 had compound exon 19 and EML4/ALK and 2 were unknown. 65% were female, all were non-Hispanic white, median age 62.5, PS0 65.2%/PS1 34.8%, median Charlson Comorbidity Index 6, and 71.4% were never smokers. Median number of lesions treated was 1 (range 1-3). There were no G3-4 AEs to SRS. Two subjects had grade 3 rash on erlotinib. Median PFS post treatment was 5.8 months (95% CI, 2.5 to 11.3) and median OS was 2.9 years (95% CI 1.1 to 2.9). Serum proteomics showed a Veristrat good signature for all but one subject; this result changed to good following LAT. No signatures turned to poor at progression.

      Conclusion:
      LAT resulted in a modest extension in the duration of targeted therapy, supporting retrospective data in this population. Accrual to this study has been challenging due to the availability of 3[rd] generation EGFR TKIs and because LAT is often done outside of a clinical trial.
