Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the influencing factors of the therapeutic effect of epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI) in patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutant advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods:The clinical data of 104 EGFR mutant advanced NSCLC patients who received EGFR-TKI treatment in Wuxi No.2 Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University from January 2015 to October 2019 were collected. The correlation of different types of EGFR mutation with the clinicopathological characteristics, the hematological examination results and the treatment mode of patients was analyzed. Cox proportional hazard model was used to analyze the association of the progression-free survival (PFS) time of patients receiving EGFR-TKI treatment with the different types of EGFR mutation, the clinicopathological characteristics, hematological related indexes and treatment mode. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the independent influencing factors for the PFS of the stratified patients.Results:The overall disease control rate (DCR) of patients receiving EGFR-TKI treatment was 92.3% (96/104). Cox univariate analysis showed that the levels of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA125), D-dimer, and previous surgical treatment history of patients receiving EGFR-TKI treatment were associated with PFS of patients (all P < 0.05). Cox multi-factor analysis showed that EGFR mutation type ( HR =2.371, 95% CI 1.298-4.332, P = 0.005), combination therapy ( HR = 0.489, 95% CI 0.245-0.978, P = 0.043) and choice of therapeutic drugs ( HR = 0.261, 95% CI 0.113-0.606, P = 0.002) were independent influencing factors for the PFS of patients receiving EGFR-TKI treatment. The PFS of EGFR 19 exon-mutant patients with advanced NSCLC was longer than that of those with EGFR 21 exon-mutant (median PFS time: 14.0 months vs.9.5 months, P<0.05); the PFS of combination of radiotherapy or chemotherapy was longer than that of EGFR-TKI single therapy (median PFS time: 15.0 months vs. 9.0 months, P<0.05), the PFS of patients receiving erlotinib was better than that of those receiving gefitinib ( P<0.05). According to EGFR mutation types, it was found that EGFR 19 exon-mutant patients receiving EGFR-TKI in first-line treatment could obtain better PFS than those who receiving EGFR-TKI in second-line and above treatment (median PFS time: 14.0 months vs. 9.5 months, P<0.05). When receiving EGFR-TKI, EGFR 19 exon-mutant patients with CA125 <85 U/ml could obtain longer PFS time than those with CA125 ≥85 U/ml (median PFS time: 14.0 months vs. 6.5 months, P<0.05). Conclusions:The therapeutic effect of EGFR-TKI in EGFR-mutant patients with advanced NSCLC is positive. EGFR 19 exon-mutant NSCLC patients with low-level CA125 receiving EGFR-TKI in first-line treatment can obtain better PFS.
