Abstract Text | We aim to identify the prevalence and the role of the MAP2K1 K57N mutation in predicting resistance to anti-EGFR agents in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients.We retrospectively reviewed tumor-based next generation sequencing (NGS) results from mCRC patients screened for enrollment in the GO40872/STARTRK-2 clinical trial between July 2019 and March 2021. Then, in patients harboring microsatellite stable (MSS) RAS and BRAF wild-type MAP2K1 mutant mCRC, we reviewed outcome to treatment with anti-EGFR monoclonal antibodies.A total of 246 mCRC patients were screened. Most of them, 215/220 (97.7%), were diagnosed with MSS mCRC and 112/215 (52.1%) with MSS, RAS and BRAF wild-type mCRC. Among the latter, 2/112 (1.8%) had MAP2K1 K57N mutant mCRC and both received anti-EGFR monotherapy as third line treatment. In both patients, MAP2K1 K57N mutant tumors proved primary resistant to anti-EGFR agent panitumumab monotherapy. Of interest, one of these patients was treated with anti-EGFR agents three times throughout his course of treatment, achieving some clinical benefit only when associated with other cytotoxic agents (FOLFOX or irinotecan).We verified in a clinical real-world setting that MAP2K1 K57N mutation is a resistance mechanism to anti-EGFR agents in mCRC. Thus, we suggest avoiding the administration of these drugs to MSS RAS and BRAF wild-type MAP2K1 N57K mutant mCRC. |

MAP2K1 K57N | colorectal cancer | resistant | Panitumumab | Case Reports/Case Series | Actionable | In a retrospective analysis, two patients with metastatic RAS/BRAF wild-type colorectal cancer demonstrated progressive disease following treatment with Vectibix (panitumumab) and via analysis of archived pretreatment tumor biopsy samples and post-progression liquid biopsy both were found to harbor MAP2K1 K57N (PMID: 36419886). | 36419886 |
