Abstract 375: Oncologist use and perception of large panel next generation tumor sequencing
Cancer Research(2017)
Abstract
Abstract At Memorial Sloan Kettering, we have used a clinically validated custom hybridization capture-based NGS assay (MSK-IMPACT) to sequence the tumors of more than 10,000 patients. We sought to determine physician perception and use of these results, including whether they changed management and the reasoning behind this decision-making. All physicians who ordered MSK-IMPACT testing for patients where it was not considered routine were asked to complete a questionnaire quarterly (Table). Physician determination of genomic “actionability” was compared to OncoKB, a curated knowledge base of somatic variants (OncoKB.org). Responses were received from 146 of 258 physicians emailed (57%) regarding 1932 of 9147 patients (21%). Physician respondents comprised a diversity of cancer specialties including medical oncology (67%), pediatric oncology (8%), surgery (6%), radiation oncology (5%), and neuro-oncology (5%). A total of 49 cancer types were represented. Physicians indicated that sequencing altered management in 331 (20%) of profiled patients in need of a treatment change. Among those in whom treatment was reportedly not altered, physicians indicated the presence of at least one actionable alteration in 55% (805/1474) of cases. However, only 45% of these cases harbored a genomic variant annotated as actionable by OncoKB. Among patients in whom physicians deemed the report non-actionable, 12% had OncoKB annotated actionable variants. Across the cases annotated as potentially actionable by OncoKB, physicians identified an actionable alteration in 81% of cases. At the time of data analysis, 297 (15%) patients had been enrolled in at least one clinical trial of targeted therapy at MSKCC including 224 (12%) patients on genomically-matched trials, 76% of whom participated after IMPACT profiling. As the clinical adoption of NGS panels expands, continued education of physicians as well as maintained knowledge bases for annotation will be necessary to expand the utility of this approach and the opportunity for precision medicine.
