Analysis of ctDNA in mCRC patients revealed that the presence of RAS or PIK3CA mutations in baseline ctDNA is associated with worse PFS and OS, which can help refine the selection of patients for upfront anti-EGFR strategies.
Purpose: The routine use of liquid biopsy is not recommended for the choice of initial treatment for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). Experimental Design: We included patients with left-sided, RAS/BRAF wild-type, HER2-negative, and microsatellite stable mCRC, treated with upfront panitumumab/FOLFOX-4 in the Valentino study. We performed amplicon-based genomic profiling of 14 genes in baseline plasma samples and compared these data with tumor tissue ultra-deep sequencing results. Specific gene mutations in circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) and their clonality were associated with progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and radiological dynamics. Results: Ten and 15 of 120 patients had a mutation of RAS and PIK3CA in ctDNA, with a positive concordance with tissue deep sequencing of only 31.3% and 47.1%, respectively. Presence of RAS or PIK3CA mutations in baseline ctDNA was associated with worse median PFS [8 vs. 12.8 months; HR, 2.49; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.28-4.81; P = 0.007 and 8.5 vs. 12.9 months; HR, 2.86; 95% CI, 1.63-5.04; P < 0.001] and median OS (17.1 vs. 36.5 months; HR, 2.26; 95% CI, 1.03-4.96; P = 0.042 and 21.1 vs. 38.9 months; HR, 2.18; 95% CI, 1.16-4.07; P = 0.015). RAS mutations in ctDNA were associated with worse RECIST response, early tumor shrinkage, and depth of response, while PIK3CA mutations were not. Patients with higher levels of RAS/PIK3CA variant allele fraction (VAF) in ctDNA had the worst outcomes (VAF >= 5% vs. all wild- type: median PFS, 7.7 vs. 13.1 months; HR, 4.02; 95% CI, 2.03-7.95; P < 0.001 and median OS, 18.8 vs. 38.9 months; HR, 4.07; 95% CI, 2.04-8.12; P < 0.001). Conclusions: Baseline ctDNA profiling may add value to tumor tissue testing to refine the molecular hyperselection of patients with mCRC for upfront anti-EGFR-based strategies.
