Positive response to Icotinib in metastatic lung adenocarcinoma with acquiring EGFR Leu792H mutation after AZD9291 treatment: a case report

Abstract

Background

Epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) have been emerged as the standard selection in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with EGFR sensitive mutations. However, primary or acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs seems inevitable, especially to third-generation TKIs, which has appeared absence of effective solutions so far.

Case presentation

Here we reported a NSCLC patient with EGFR sensitive mutation of deletion within EGFR exon 19, who had been resistant to icotinib and AZD9291 successively after a period of 18 months response duration. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technique using plasma sample suggested an acquired EGFR Leu792H mutation, rather than C797S one. Interestingly, the patient obtained another 8 months of disease-free duration with symptoms greatly relieved after repeating icotinib administration. The overall survival of the patient has been thirty-six months and still in the extension.

Conclusion

The presentation of the case may provide some selective therapeutic thoughts for NSCLC patients with acquired EGFR Leu792H mutation suffering resistance to the third-generation TKIs.
