Near-Complete Response to Osimertinib for Advanced Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer in a Pretreated Patient Bearing Rare Compound Exon 20 Mutation (S768I + V774M): A Case Report.

Third-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors are the first-line gold standard in treating advanced non-small-cell lung cancer bearing common EGFR mutations, but data documenting clinical efficacy in uncommon mutations are currently limited. In this paper, we describe the case of a patient bearing uncommon compound EGFR mutations in exon 20, who experienced a near-complete response to third-line Osimertinib, with metabolic complete response of pulmonary, nodal and ostheolytic lesions. This radiological assessment corresponded to an ECOG PS improvement (from three to one) and a substantial clinical benefit for the patients. Out of two mutations, S768I was associated with poor response to third-generation TKI and V774M had unknown clinical significance, highlighting the complexity of the correct management of these kinds of mutations. We reviewed the literature to document the up-to-date preclinical and clinical data concerning third-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors for the treatment of patients bearing uncommon EGFR mutations.
