Background: Mutation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a prediction marker of the response to tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) drugs in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. As late stage lung cancer patients rarely undergo surgery, samples for EGFR mutation identification usually come from computed tomography (CT)-guided or endoscopic biopsies, which is invasive and costly. Pleural effusion may serve as a less invasive sample for EGFR mutation detection. Methods: We designed a fluorophore-labeled peptide nucleic acid (PNA) probe assay for three types of EGFR mutations, including exon 19 deletions, L858R point mutations and T790M point mutations. The assay was applied in 39 pleural effusion samples from NSCLC patients. The correlation between detected EGFR status and clinical outcome were analyzed. Results: In 15 paired samples, PNA probe assay in pleural effusion samples could detect all the mutations that were identified by conventional PCR plus Sanger sequencing in tissue biopsies. In addition, PNA probe assay detected three more T790M mutations. In all 39 pleural effusions, the PNA probe assay detected 27 having at least one of the three EGFR mutations. Among the patients before TKI treatment, those with a sensitizing mutation (either exon 19 deletion or L858R) but without T790M, had 94.1% response rate and longer progression-free survival (mean 10.8 months) than patients without detected mutation (mean 4.2 months) and patients with T790M (mean 1.7 months). Conclusions: Mutations detected in pleural effusions using PNA probe assay are highly associated with clinical outcome. This method appears to be a reliable way for the prediction of the efficacy of EGFR-targeted therapy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
