Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We performed a retrospective analysis of 22 patients with EGFR mutation-positive non-small cell lung cancer who exhibited 1st/2nd generation EGFR-TKI resistance to consider appropriate application of liquid and re-biopsy through analysis of current status in practice. T790M detection rate was 52% with re-biopsy and 58% with liquid biopsy. The concordance between tissue and plasma was 58%. Liquid biopsy reflects the whole body, whereas re-biopsy is useful for spatial diagnosis. In an effort to discover a noninvasive method for predicting cancer lesion harboring T790M mutation, we tried to develop SPECT imaging agents which selectively target the T790M positive EGFR. We completed mouse model which harbor T790M positive and negative metastatic lesions and tried to detect T790M positive metastatic lesions by administration SPECT imaging agent. However, specific accumulation of SPECT imaging agents to tumor lesion could not been detected.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
今回の検討から、治療薬の対象となる遺伝子変異を有する癌細胞が体内に存在するかという全身的な評価にはliquid biopsyが優れているが、どの病巣に治療の標的となる遺伝子変異が認められ、使用する薬剤にて縮小が期待できるかについては、現時点ではそれぞれの転移巣の組織再生検を行わないと判断が難しいことが確認された。今回の研究期間内には結果を出すことができなかったものの、放射線同位元素で標識した薬剤を投与後にSPECT撮影を行うことで目的とする遺伝子変異を有する病変を推定するという試みは、複数個所の再生検という侵襲をさけつつ治療効果を予測する点で期待がもたれる検査法ではないかと考えられた。
