摘要
目的:在阿根廷,间变性淋巴瘤激酶(ALK)基因重排发生在约6.1%的非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)病例中。鉴于第二代和第三代ALK抑制剂的可用性,需要真实世界的数据来告知最佳治疗策略。然而,对许多患者来说,获得这些疗法的机会仍然有限。方法:我们对2014年1月至2024年2月接受一线酪氨酸激酶抑制剂(TKIs)治疗的转移性alk阳性NSCLC (ALKp)患者进行了多中心回顾性研究。分析了人口统计学、治疗模式、临床结果和影响治疗可及性的因素。结果:我们确定了104例ALKp患者。中位年龄55岁(IQR, 45-67岁);86%的患者≤1名,其中58%为女性,57%为非吸烟者。29%在诊断时出现脑转移,50%接受局部治疗。一线tki包括alectinib(42%)、crizotinib(30%)、lorlatinib(16%)和brigatinib(12%)。克唑替尼的使用通常是由于新一代tki的获取有限。54%发生不良事件,其中21%为3 - 4级。客观有效率为73%。在中位随访42个月时,48%的患者出现进展。与较新的tki患者相比,克唑替尼与更高的进展或死亡风险相关(风险比为3.09 [95% CI, 1.75至5.5];P = 0.01)。18%的患者出现中枢神经系统进展,克唑替尼组更常见(42% vs 8%, P = 0.04)。在进展的患者中,82%接受了二线治疗,最常见的是氯拉替尼或阿勒替尼。24个月的总生存率为81%,27%的患者在数据截止时死亡。结论:这项真实世界的研究描述了阿根廷alp患者的结果和治疗模式。它突出了在获得最佳疗法方面的差异,并强调了公平获得新一代ALK抑制剂以改善临床结果的必要性。
Real-World Outcomes in Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase-Positive Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer in Argentina: A Multicenter Retrospective Study (GAOT-ALK001).
Purpose: In Argentina, anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene rearrangements occur in approximately 6.1% of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cases. Given the availability of second- and third-generation ALK inhibitors, real-world data are needed to inform optimal treatment strategies. However, access to these therapies remains limited for many patients.
Methods: We conducted a multicenter retrospective study of patients with metastatic ALK-positive NSCLC (ALKp) treated with first-line tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) from January 2014 to February 2024. Demographics, treatment patterns, clinical outcomes, and factors affecting treatment accessibility were analyzed.
Results: We identified 104 patients with ALKp. The median age was 55 years (IQR, 45-67); 86% had Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group ≤1, 58% were women, and 57% were nonsmokers. Brain metastases were present at diagnosis in 29%, with 50% receiving local treatment. First-line TKIs included alectinib (42%), crizotinib (30%), lorlatinib (16%), and brigatinib (12%). Crizotinib use was frequently due to limited access to new-generation TKIs. Adverse events occurred in 54%, with 21% grade 3 to 4. The objective response rate was 73%. At a median follow-up of 42 months, 48% experienced progression. Crizotinib was associated with higher risk of progression or death compared with newer TKIs (hazard ratio, 3.09 [95% CI, 1.75 to 5.5]; P = .01). CNS progression occurred in 18%, more often with crizotinib (42% v 8%, P = .04). Among those progressing, 82% received second-line therapy, most commonly lorlatinib or alectinib. The overall survival at 24 months was 81%, with 27% of patients deceased at data cutoff.
Conclusion: This real-world study describes outcomes and treatment patterns among patients with ALKp in Argentina. It highlights disparities in access to optimal therapies and reinforces the need for equitable access to new-generation ALK inhibitors to improve clinical outcomes.
