Tumor mutation burden (TMB) is a biomarker of response to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). The impact of TMB on outcomes with targeted therapies has not been explored. We identified all patients with metastatic EGFR exon19del or L858R mutant lung cancers treated with first/second generation EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) with pre-treatment large panel next generation sequencing data (MSK-IMPACT assay). The effect of TMB on time to treatment discontinuation (TTD) and overall survival (OS) were evaluated in univariate and multivariate analyses. EGFR wild-type (WT) lung adenocarcinoma samples were used for comparison. Among 153 patients with EGFR mutant lung cancer, TMB was lower compared to EGFR wild-type (n=1849) (median 3.77 vs. 6.12 mutations/Mb, p<0.0001) with a broad range (0.82–17.9). EGFR mutant lung cancer patients whose tumors had TMB in the upper tertile had shorter TTD (HR=0.46, p=0.0008) and OS (HR=0.40, p=0.006) compared to patients with low/intermediate TMB. Evaluating by median TMB, there was significantly shorter TTD and OS for patients with higher TMB (TTD p=0.006, OS p=0.03). In multivariate analysis, TTD and OS remained significantly longer in the low/intermediate tertile compared to high TMB (HR=0.57, p=0.01; HR=0.50, p=0.02, respectively). In paired pre-treatment and post-progression samples, TMB was increased at resistance (median 6.56 vs 3.42 mutations/Mb, p=0.008). TMB is negatively associated with clinical outcomes in metastatic EGFR mutant lung cancer patients treated with EGFR-TKI. This relationship contrasts with that seen in lung cancers treated with immunotherapy.
