Brief Report: Risk of Recurrent Interstitial Lung Disease From Osimertinib Versus Erlotinib Rechallenge After Symptomatic Osimertinib-Induced Interstitial Lung Disease.
JTO clinical and research reports(2024)
Abstract
Introduction:Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is the most frequent cause of drug-related mortality from EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Yet, for patients with symptomatic osimertinib-induced ILD, the risk of recurrent ILD associated with EGFR TKI rechallenge, either with osimertinib or another TKI, such as erlotinib, is unclear.
Methods:Retrospective study of 913 patients who received osimertinib treatment for EGFR mutation-positive NSCLC. Clinical characteristics, ILD treatment history, and subsequent anticancer therapy of patients with symptomatic osimertinib-induced ILD were collated. The primary end point was to compare the incidence of recurrent ILD with osimertinib versus erlotinib rechallenge.
Results:Of 913 patients, 35 (3.8%) had symptomatic osimertinib-induced ILD, of which 12 (34%), 15 (43%), and eight (23%) had grade 2, 3 to 4, and 5 ILD, respectively. On ILD recovery, 17 patients had EGFR TKI rechallenge with eight received osimertinib and nine received erlotinib. The risk of recurrent ILD was higher with osimertinib rechallenge than erlotinib (p = 0.0498). Of eight, five (63%) developed recurrent ILD on osimertinib rechallenge, including three patients with fatal outcomes. In contrast, only one of nine patients (11%) treated with erlotinib had recurrent ILD. Median time to second ILD occurrence was 4.7 (range 0.7-12) weeks. Median time-to-treatment failure of patients with erlotinib rechallenge was 13.2 months (95% confidence interval: 8.6-15.0).
Conclusions:The risk of recurrent ILD was considerably higher with osimertinib rechallenge than erlotinib. Osimertinib rechallenge should be avoided, whereas erlotinib may be considered in patients with symptomatic osimertinib-induced ILD.
