Introduction: Leptomeningeal metastases (LMs) are associated with dismal prognosis in NSCLC. Optimal management remains unknown in patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC after initial tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) failure. Methods: We conducted a multicenter retrospective study including patients with EGFR-mutated NSCLC and LM. TKI failure was defined as diagnosis of LM on TKI, or progression of known LM on TKI. Results: Ninety-two patients were included, median age of 60 years, predominantly female (68%), never-smokers (74%). EGFR mutations included L858R (45%), exon 19 deletions (28%), or other mutations (14%). Median time to LM diagnosis was 18.5 months after initial diagnosis of advanced NSCLC. LM was diagnosed after a median of 2 (range: 0-9) systemic therapies. Median overall survival from LM diagnosis was 6.1 months (95% confidence interval [ CI]: 4.2-7.6 months). Among 87 patients with TKI failure, patients rechallenged with TKI (n = 50) had a median LM overall survival of 7.6 months (95% CI: 5.7-10.9) compared to 4.2 months (95% CI: 1.6-6.7) in patients without further therapy. Overall, 60% of patients rechallenged with TKI experienced clinical benefit (clinical response or stable disease >2 months), and 23% were treatment failure-free at 6 months. Clinical benefit was reported in 11 of 20 (55%) patients treated with erlotinib after afatinib or gefitinib. Strategies based on increasing dose intensity (n = 17) yielded clinical benefit in 59% of patients. All four patients who received osimertinib after first-and second-generation TKI experienced clinical benefit. Conclusions: TKI rechallenge strategies, including dosing intensification, may improve clinical outcomes of patients with LM from EGFR-mutated NSCLC after initial TKI failure.
