RESUMEN

Cancer genomic medicine using next-generation sequencers has been developing. However, the number of patients who could receive genomically matched therapy is limited because off-label use or patient-oriented compassionate use was not permitted under National Health Insurance in Japan. To improve patient drug accessibility, we initiated a biomarker-based basket-type clinical trial (NCCH1901) in October 2019 under patient-proposed healthcare services. We listed the drugs that had high medical needs but were not covered by National Healthcare Insurance. Then we included these drugs before patient proposal so that they could access off-label drugs soon after they had the results of CGP tests. All drugs were provided free of charge by pharmaceutical companies. The objective was to administer off-label drugs and to collect efficacy and safety data for these drugs. The primary endpoint was the response rate based on the best overall response for up to 16 weeks. As of January 31, 2022, we included 18 drug cohorts and 295 patients were treated in this study. The most common cancer was brain tumor, followed by carcinoma of endocrine organs and colorectal cancer. BRAF mutations and ERBB2 amplifications were the frequent genomic abnormalities to be enrolled. This study was one way to access off-label drugs, and contributed significantly to providing treatment opportunities for patients in Japan.

RESUMEN

Cancer genomic profile (CGP) testing, which is covered by the national health insurance system in Japan, has been introduced as a routine clinical practice. However, the effects of CGP testing on prognoses remain unclear. Drug accessibility rates and prognoses after CGP testing were retrospectively investigated in 713 patients who underwent CGP testing examined by our molecular tumor board between November 2019 and October 2022,. Overall survival (OS) was examined using the log-rank test and the Kaplan-Meier method. The median age of patients (326 males and 387 females) was 58 years (12-85 years). CGP testing revealed one or more gene mutations in 681 cases (95.5%), among which actionable gene mutations were detected in 439 (61.6%). Although treatment options were recommended for 285 cases (40.0%) by the molecular tumor board, only 45 received treatment based on their gene mutations. During the median observation period of 8.6 months, 351 (49.2%) patients died of the exacerbation of existing diseases. No significant differences were observed in OS between patients treated with and without genomically matched therapy (p = 0.285). According to clinical responses to treatment based on gene mutations, median OS was significantly longer in patients who achieved partial response and stable disease (26.5 months; 95% CI 14.4-38.6) than in those with progressive disease and not evaluated (9.8 months; 95% CI 5.8-13.8, p = 0.013). Responses to treatment based on gene mutations may improve prognoses, and it is important to increase the drug accessibility rate after CGP testing.

RESUMEN

In Japan, comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) tests for refractory cancer patients have been approved since June 2019, under the requirement that all cases undergoing CGP tests are annotated by the molecular tumor board (MTB) at each government-designated hospital. To investigate improvement in precision oncology, we evaluated and compared the proportion of cases receiving matched treatments according to CGP results and those recommended to receive genetic counseling at all core hospitals between the first period (11 hospitals, June 2019 to January 2020) and second period (12 hospitals, February 2020 to January 2021). A total of 754 and 2294 cases underwent CGP tests at core hospitals in the first and second periods, respectively; 28 (3.7%) and 176 (7.7%) patients received matched treatments (p < 0.001). Additionally, 25 (3.3%) and 237 (10.3%) cases were recommended to receive genetic counseling in the first and second periods, respectively (p < 0.001). The proportion was associated with the type of CGP test: tumor-only (N = 2391) vs. tumor-normal paired (N = 657) analysis (10.0% vs. 3.5%). These results suggest that recommendations regarding available clinical trials in networked MTBs might contribute to increasing the numbers of matched treatments, and that tumor-normal paired rather than tumor-only tests can increase the efficiency of patient referrals for genetic counseling.

RESUMEN

Previous clinical trials indicate that 10%-25% of patients received genomically matched therapy after comprehensive genomic profiling (CGP) tests. However, the clinical utility of CGP tests has not been assessed in clinical practice. We assessed the clinical utility of CGP tests for advanced or metastatic solid tumor and determined the proportion of patients receiving genomically matched therapy among those with common and non-common cancers. From August 2019 to July 2020, a total of 418 patients had undergone CGP tests, and the results were discussed through the molecular tumor board at our site. The median age of patients was 57 (range: 3-86) years. Colorectal cancer was the most common, with 47 (11%) patients. Actionable genomic alterations (median 3, range: 1-17) were identified in 368 (88.0%) of 418 patients. Druggable genomic alterations were determined in 196 (46.9%) of 418 patients through the molecular tumor board. Genomically matched therapy was administered as the subsequent line of therapy in 51 (12.2%) patients, which is comparable to the proportion we previously reported in a clinical trial (13.4%) (p = 0.6919). The proportion of patients receiving genomically matched therapy was significantly higher among those with common cancers (16.2%) than non-common cancers (9.4%) (p = 0.0365). Genomically matched therapy after the CGP tests was administered to 12.2% of patients, which is similar to the proportion reported in the previous clinical trials. The clinical utility of CGP tests in patients with common cancers greatly exceeded that in patients with non-common cancers.
