Popis: | Previous studies have revealed that EGFR mutation and/or EML4-ALK gene fusion rate was higher in the non-smoker Asian females with pulmonary adenocarcinoma. The aim of this study is to determine the distribution of known oncogenic driver mutations in the female non-smoker Asian patients with pulmonary adenocarcinoma. 104 consecutively resected lung adenocarcinomas from 396 non-smoker females (less than 100 cigarettes in a lifetime) at a single institution (Tongji University, Shanghai, China) were analyzed for mutations in EGFR, EML4-ALK, KRAS, HER2, BRAF, and PIK3CA. 73 (70.2 %) tumors harbored EGFR mutations; among these, 28 were deletions in exon 19, 44 were L858R missense changes, and eight were T790M mutations. 10 (9.6 %) harbored EML4-ALK fusions, two harbored KRAS mutations, two harbored BRAF mutations, and two harbored PI3K mutations. A majority of the mutations were mutually exclusive, except two with EGFR mutation and BRAF mutation, one with EML4-ALK fusions and PI3K mutation. Thus, 82.7 % (86 of 104; 95 % CI, 75.4-90.0 %) of lung adenocarcinomas from non-smoker females were found to harbor the well-known oncogenic mutations in five genes. Lung cancer in non-smoking Asian females is a distinct entity, with majority of this subgroup being developed by the oncogenic mutations. The prospective mutation examination in this population will be helpful for devising a targeted therapy for a majority of the patients. |
