*Chouaid et al (2018) conducted a retrospective observational study in 831 patients with complete resection of stage IB-IIIA NSCLC with no information on EGFRm status. Of the 831 patients, 200 experienced metastatic recurrence during the observed study follow-up period.2

Based on a single-center retrospective review of 1640 patients who had undergone resection for stage I-IIIA NSCLC from a prospectively maintained database to compare patterns of recurrence. 181 of 346 patients with stage IIIA NSCLC (52%) and 257 of 1294 patients with stage I-II NSCLC (20%) developed recurrences. Staging was based on the 7th edition of the AJCC tumor, node, and metastasis classification of lung cancer.3

Hüyük et al (2023) conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis extracting DFS and OS data from 15 studies with a total of 1893 patients with stage I-IIIA NSCLC, with and without occult lymph node micrometastasis/isolated tumor cells, after surgical resection. Meta-analyses for OS and DFS were performed on 14 and 8 studies, respectively. Survival probabilities for OS and DFS at different timepoints were extracted from published survival curves. OS probabilities were reported at every 6 months after surgery until 5-year follow-up for both micrometastasis and no micrometastasis. DFS was reported at every 3 months after surgery for the first 2-year follow-up, and at every 6 months after 2 years of follow-up until 5 years of follow-up.4

§According to the American Joint Committee on Cancer, micrometastases are defined as clusters of tumor cells measuring between 0.2 mm and 2.0 mm in greatest diameter, and ITCs are defined as single tumor cells or small clusters of cells, smaller than 0.2 mm in greatest diameter.6

In resectable EGFRm NSCLC

EGFR mutations occur across stages I-III of NSCLC, driving tumor growth

Up to 1 in 5 patients may have EGFRm NSCLC7,8*

  • EGFR prevalence rates across stage I-III NSCLC: stage I, 20% (19.0, 20.4); stage II, 18% (14.9, 19.9); stage III, 18% (17.4, 17.7)

CNS metastases are a prevalent risk in NSCLC, especially for patients with EGFRm disease10§

Patients with EGFRm NSCLC have Approximately Twice the Risk
of CNS Metastases

Patients with EGFRm NSCLC have approximately twice the risk of CNS metastases vs patients with EGFR wild-type disease (OR=1.99)10§

*Prevalence of EGFR mutations in NSCLC adenocarcinoma was based on data from 2 references: Sholl et al (2015) performed mutation analysis on 1007 cases with confirmed diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma. Testing was performed on 987 cases for EGFR sensitizing mutations (exon 19 deletions, EGFR L858R mutations, EGFR G719X mutations, EGFR L861Q mutations) and other EGFR mutations (any one or more mutations in EGFR other than exon 19 deletions, L858R mutations, G719X mutations, or L861Q mutations). Out of 987 cases, 331 cases that were analyzed had stage I-III NSCLC and 632 had stage IV NSCLC. D’Angelo et al (2012) analyzed tumor specimens from a cohort of 1118 patients with stage I-III surgically resected lung adenocarcinomas with EGFR exon 19 deletions and L858R mutations only.7,8,11,12

Based on a single-center, retrospective study of 282 patients with early or locally advanced lung adenocarcinoma; 142 were EGFRm and 140 were EGFR wild-type. The majority of both groups received standard-of-care treatment. Standard-of-care was defined as surgery or RT + cytotoxic platinum-based doublet therapy when appropriate.9

Overall recurrence across all stages was ~23% in patients who were EGFRm and ~21% in patients who were EGFR wild-type. P-value corresponds to data calculation 21/29=0.72 and 31/32=0.97. The P-value of 0.007 was for the overall population (stage I-III). The only P-value by stage that was significant was for stage I (P=0.02).9

§Based on a meta-analysis that examined the incidence of brain metastases in EGFRm or EGFR wild-type NSCLC. 8152 patients were included from 22 multinational studies. 16 studies included patients with stage IV disease. 2664 patients had an EGFR mutation.10

  • Multidisciplinary team involvement and coordination have been shown to improve patient outcomes in early-stage NSCLC compared to a traditional care model22†

NCCN recommendation

Patients with stage IB should be evaluated for perioperative therapy, including adjuvant treatment.17
Testing for EGFR mutations in patients with resectable stage IB to IIIA, stage IIIB (T2-T3, N2b; T4, N2) NSCLC is recommended in NCCN Guidelines to inform adjuvant treatment decisions.17‡§ Osimertinib (TAGRISSO) is the first and only EGFR TKI with an NCCN Category 1 recommendation for adjuvant treatment following surgical resection in patients with EGFRm (exon 19 deletion, L858R mutation) NSCLC and is recommended for a duration of 3 years.17‡§

The NCCN Guidelines for NSCLC provide recommendations for certain individual biomarkers that should be tested and recommend testing techniques, but do not endorse any specific commercially available biomarker assays or commercial laboratories.17

§Osimertinib is recommended following surgical resection in patients with EGFRm (exon 19 deletion, L858R mutation) NSCLC who received previous adjuvant chemotherapy or are ineligible to receive platinum-based chemotherapy.17

*A retrospective cohort analysis that used the Premier inpatient database to identify patients diagnosed with NSCLC who were undergoing treatment in the 77 hospitals within the Ascension Health hospital system during a 5-year period from 2008 to 2012. Patients with stage I-III NSCLC were eligible for inclusion and analysis. The propensity score method was used to populate 2 patient cohorts: those undergoing care coordination through a prospective multidisciplinary care conference (MDC) and those whose care was not coordinated through an MDC. During the 6-year study period, 15,731 patients with NSCLC were identified at 49 hospitals in 26 states that met the entrance criteria for the investigation. 6627 patients met the patient and facility inclusion criteria for the MDC cohort from 27 hospitals. These MDC patients were propensity matched, as previously described, to 6627 patients who met the patient inclusion criteria but whose care was not coordinated through an MDC. In the MDC cohort, 88% of patients (5832/6627) received NCCN-guideline recommended care vs 71% (4705/6627) in the non-MDC cohort (P<0.0001).21

Bilfinger et al conducted a single-center, retrospective investigation of all lung cancer cases diagnosed between 2002 and 2016 in the Stony Brook University Hospital (SBUH) cancer registry to compare the short-term and long-term survival outcomes of patients with lung cancer treated within the MDT program vs those patients who received a traditional model of cancer care at SBUH. 1956 patients with lung cancer were identified for the MDT group and 2315 patients were identified for the non-MDT group. Short-term and long-term survival rates were both significantly greater among MDT patients vs non-MDT patients at all stages.22

In resectable NSCLC

A variety of strategies may help improve patient referral from surgeons to oncologists

Help ensure your patient is referred to a medical oncologist for EGFR mutation testing and potential adjuvant treatment

  • Female Oncologist

    Consider automatic referral to an oncologist for resected patients23

  • Clock Icon

    Ensure timely clinic visit
    for follow-up in hospitalized patients24

  • Clipboard Icon

    Discuss surgical cases at your tumor board25

  • Bottle Icon

    See if surgical databases are available at your institution to use for monitoring referrals25

  • Check with your multidisciplinary team to ensure any patients with NSCLC who were previously resected have been tested for EGFR mutations and referred to medical oncologists for the chance to receive adjuvant TAGRISSO13
