Treatment of TKI Resistance Oncogenic driven cancer with tumor response to TKI Oligo-Progression Systemic Progression Local therapy + continuation of TKI Systemic therapy Targeting the resistant gene Chemotherapy Chemotherapy + TKI
Local Therapy in Acquired Resistance: MSKCC • 18/184 pts/7+ yrs underwent local therapy for extracranial PD • CNS PD excluded • From time of local therapy • Median TTP: 10 months • Median time to new systemic Rx: 22 months • Median OS: 41 months Yu, ASCO 2012, Abst#7527
Local treatment to oligo-progression plus continuation of TKI • Colorado University collection of 65 patients with oncogenic driven cancer (EGFR mutation or ALK positive) • All received EGFR TKI or Crizotinib • PFS 1 defined as <4 sites of progression • Local ablative therapy offered to all sites of involvement and continue TKI • PFS 2 defined as from time of local therapy to second progression ASCO 2012 Abst 7526
PFS of patients treated with LAT and continuation of TKI therapy Ϯ Includes 3 patients who progressed systemically (eCNS) and simultaneously within the CNS
Future Prospective Study? Oncogenic driven cancer with tumor response to TKI PD by RECIST <4 sites of PD Randomized Local therapy + continuation of TKI Chemotherapy Primary endpoint: PFS Secondary endpoint: OS, RR, QOL

Early finding of intratumor heterogeneity in lung cancer • Twenty-one patients with recurrent EGFR mutation positive lung cancer • Surgical specimens were retrieved from archive • Using laser capture microdissection and analyzed 50–60 areas from each tissue • Fifteen tissues consisted only of cells with EGFR mutations • Six tissues contained both mutated and non-mutated cells. Taniguchi K, Cancer Sci, 2008 May;99(5):929-35
Combination strategy for heterogeneous tumor • Chemotherapy is standard cytotoxic for adenocarcinoma • Adenocarcinoma has a higher incidence of harboring driver oncogene, especially among the non-smoker adenocarcinoma • Cancer patient may have heterogeneous mix of tumor with or without the driver oncogenes • We need a rational approach to “Chemotherapy + Targeted Therapy”

PFS and OS Improvement in patients with or without EGFR mutation? Adjusted for stratification factors: p=0.09, HR=0.78 (0.59-1.04) Adjusted for stratification factors: p=0.02, HR=0.67 (0.50 – 0.93)
Improvement limited to non-squamous cell carcinoma For a population dominated by EGFR wild type, control arm should be Alimta • Lack of improvement in squamous cell carcinoma • No improvement in EGFR wild type • Slight improvement in non-squamous cell carcinoma • May imply benefit in a small portion of patients with EGFR mutations

Summary • TKI is forever • Redefine TKI resistance. RECIST criteria may not be applicable • Addressing the difference • Intercalated combination of chemotherapy and EGFR TKI may potentially improve treatment outcome • Novel targets • C-MET is a promising target but we are still in search of a biomarker
