Objectives: Few data are available on the impact of KRAS mutation in patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (aNSCLC) treated with immunotherapy. This analysis assessed the impact of KRAS mutation on the efficiency of first-line pembrolizumab immunotherapy in aNSCLC patients with PD-L1 ≥ 50 %.
Methods: This was a secondary analysis of the ESCKEYP study, a retrospective, national, multicenter study which included consecutively all metastatic NSCLC patients who initiated first-line treatment with pembrolizumab monotherapy from May 2017 (date of pembrolizumab availability in this indication in France) to November 22, 2019 (pembrolizumab-chemotherapy combination approval).
Dabrafenib plus trametinib combination is approved in Europe for V600E-mutant metastatic non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The objective of this study was to assess efficacy and safety of this combination in a real-world setting. This retrospective multicentric study included 40 patients with advanced NSCLC harboring V600E mutation and receiving dabrafenib plus trametinib.
