Abstract Text Background: The prediction of outcome to ICPI in advanced NSCLC is of great clinical interest. We considered CGP, PD-L1 IHC, and real world data to investigate potential biomarkers for ICPI response. Methods: CGP and IHC was performed on 1,619 FFPE NSCLC samples in the FoundationCORE database (FMI). The SP142 antibody was used to capture PD-L1 tumor expression (PD-L1 TE) for these 1,619 samples. NSCLC patients (n = 2139) in the Flatiron Health Analytic Database with FoundationOne testing CGP results and real world IHC results for PD-L1 TE were analyzed separately (FMI-FIH). CGP used ≥50 ng of DNA and a hybrid-capture, adaptor ligation-based assay (median coverage depth >600X). TMB (mut/Mb) was determined on 1.1 Mb of sequenced DNA. Results: PD-L1 IHC TE correlated weakly with TMB (FMI samples) (Spearman’s ρ 0.085, p = 6.16e-4); mean TMB was 10.9 mut/Mb, median 8.1 mut/Mb and 14.5% had high TMB (≥20 mut/Mb). From FMI-FIH, high TMB but not PD-L1 status predicted longer mean duration on therapy (DOT) (p = 0.001). Analysis of the FMI and FMI-FIH datasets revealed relationships between GA, PD-L1 TE, TMB, and mean DOT. Inactivating STK11 GA were seen in 12.1% of FMI-FIH and 15.1% of FMI samples, most often adenocarcinomas (aCa). STK11 GA correlated with high TMB/low PD-L1 (FMI; p = 0.0014) and preliminary analyses suggest correlation with negative ICPI treatment outcome. Several genes were commonly co-altered with STK11 (FMI): KRAS (54.5%), TP53 (43%), CDKN2A (27.5%), CDKN2B (20.1%), KEAP1 (18.9%), and MYC (13.5%). BRAF GA, most often short variants (SV) in aCa, were associated with prolonged DOT on ICPI regardless of TMB score (FMI-FIH; p = 0.0073). MET SV also predicted prolonged DOT on ICPI, but insufficient events prevented calculation of statistical significance (FMI-FIH). Analysis of the TCGA lung aCa dataset revealed MET SV (2.8%) linked with immune activation gene expression profiles (p < 0.05) and STK11 mutations (14.2%) with immune evasion profiles (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Although TMB powerfully predicts ICPI outcome independent of tumor cell PD-L1 expression, considering GA in STK11, BRAF or MET may significantly increase the precision and improve outcomes when using genomics with IHC to guide to ICPI selection.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
