INTRODUCTION: EGFR C797X (C797S or C797G) mutation is the most frequent on-target mechanism of resistance to osimertinib. The hypothesis that the allelic context of C797X/T790M has implications for treatment is on the basis of sporadic reports and needs validation with larger cohorts.

METHODS: We identified patients with EGFR C797X-mutant NSCLC from nine centers who progressed on osimertinib, all analyzed in a single laboratory through next-generation sequencing. We analyzed genomic profiles and assessed associations between clinical outcomes and C797X status.

RESULTS: A total of 365 EGFR C797X-mutant cases were categorized into four subtypes on the basis of allelic context: in cis (75.3%), in trans (6.4%), cis&trans (10.4%), and C797X-only (7.9%). Genomically, the cis&trans subtype displayed the highest frequency of concurrent alterations at osimertinib resistance sites (21.1%), while the in cis subtype had the lowest (8.4%). Clinically, cis&trans patients exhibited the worst progression-free survival (PFS) on both previous (median 7.7 mo) and subsequent treatment (median 1.0 mo) and overall survival (median 3.9 mo). In subsequent treatments, in cis patients exhibited superior PFS with combined brigatinib and cetuximab (median 11.0 mo) compared with other regimens (p = 0.005), while in trans patients exhibited variable outcomes with combined first or second- and third-generation EGFR inhibitor (PFS range: 0.7-8.1 mo, median 2.6 mo). Notably, subtype switching was observed after subsequent treatments, predominantly toward the in cis subtype.

CONCLUSIONS: Allelic context could define four EGFR C797X-mutant NSCLC subtypes with heterogeneous genetic landscapes and distinct clinical outcomes. Subsequent treatments further complicate the scenario through subtype switching.
