Efficacy of EGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors in Patients With EGFR-Mutated Non–Small-Cell Lung Cancer: A Meta-Analysis of 13 Randomized Trials
چکیده انگلیسی

Advanced non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring activating mutations of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) are particularly sensitive to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), namely erlotinib and gefitinib. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the benefit of EGFR TKIs in EGFR-mutated NSCLCs. Eligible studies included published randomized controlled trials in which erlotinib or gefitinib (alone or with chemotherapy) were compared with standard therapy in 1260 patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLCs who were included in 13 trials. The mutational status was obtained through a retrospective or prospective analysis. Relative risk (RR) was calculated for response rate, and hazard ratios (HRs) were calculated for progression-free and overall survival. EGFR TKIs increase the chance of obtaining an objective response almost 2-fold when compared with chemotherapy (RR, 2.06; 2p < .00001). The response rate was 70% vs. 33.2% in first-line trials. In 3 second-line trials, response rates were 47.4% vs. 28.5%, with a benefit similar to first-line trials (RR, 1.79; 2p = .04). EGFR TKIs reduced the hazard of progression by 70% in all trials (HR, 0.30; 2p < .00001) and by 65% in first-line trials only (HR, 0.35; 2p < .00001). Overall, however, they do not improve survival (HR, 0.96; 2p = .71). NSCLCs harboring EGFR mutations derive greater benefit from erlotinib or gefitinib than from chemotherapy. All patients affected by NSCLC with an EGFR-positive mutation test result must be offered the opportunity to be treated with an EGFR TKI upfront or during the natural course of the disease if not previously exposed.
