gene occur as early cancer-driving clonal events in a subset of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and result in increased sensitivity to EGFR-tyrosine-kinase-inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs). Despite very frequent and often prolonged clinical response to EGFR-TKIs, virtually all advanced <italic>EGFR</italic>

M+) NSCLCs inevitably acquire resistance mechanisms and progress at some point during treatment. Additionally, 20–30% of patients do not respond or respond for a very short time (<3 months) because of intrinsic resistance. While several mechanisms of acquired EGFR-TKI-resistance have been determined by analyzing tumor specimens obtained at disease progression, the factors causing intrinsic TKI-resistance are less understood. However, recent comprehensive molecular-pathological profiling of advanced <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC at baseline has illustrated the co-existence of multiple genetic, phenotypic, and functional mechanisms that may contribute to tumor progression and cause intrinsic TKI-resistance. Several of these mechanisms have been further corroborated by preclinical experiments. Intrinsic resistance can be caused by mechanisms inherent in <italic>EGFR</italic>
or by <italic>EGFR</italic>
-independent processes, including genetic, phenotypic or functional tumor changes. This comprehensive review describes the identified mechanisms connected with intrinsic EGFR-TKI-resistance and differences and similarities with acquired resistance and among clinically implemented EGFR-TKIs of different generations. Additionally, the review highlights the need for extensive pre-treatment molecular profiling of advanced NSCLC for identifying inherently TKI-resistant cases and designing potential combinatorial targeted strategies to treat them.</p>

<p>Uncontrolled activity of the transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) can function as oncogenic driver and target for precision medicine intervention in lung cancer cells [<xref rid="B1-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
]. Once activated, EGFR undergoes auto-phosphorylation of tyrosine residues in its intracellular domain, recruits different adaptors and signal-transducers, and activates downstream signaling-pathways, such as the RAt Sarcoma small GTPase(RAS)-RAF proto-oncogene serine/threonine-protein kinase(RAF)-MAPK/ERK Kinase(MEK)-Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase(MAPK), the Phosphatidyl-Inositol 3-Kinase(PI3K)-AKT serine/threonine kinase(AKT)-Phosphatase and TEnsin homolog(PTEN)-mammalian Target Of Rapamycin(mTOR), and the Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription(STAT) pathways, thereby stimulating cellular proliferation, survival, protein synthesis, and migration as well as angiogenesis. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in most cases is diagnosed in a locally advanced or disseminated stage and has poor prognosis. However, the advent of targeted therapy has provided, previously unmet, clinical benefit to subsets of patients with specific genetic cancer-drivers. Patients with <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutated (<italic>EGFR</italic>
M+) NSCLC represent thus far the largest and most characterized of these NSCLC-subgroups. Activating <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations occur in 10–35% of NSCLC cases, almost all of the lung adenocarcinoma (LAC) type, with significant ethnic variations (8–15% of LACs occur in Caucasians and 30–60% in East Asian populations) and a higher incidence among females, non-smokers, and patients younger than NSCLC patients with wild-type (wt) <italic>EGFR</italic>
[<xref rid="B1-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>

]. <italic>EGFR-</italic>
mutations are extremely rare in pure pulmonary squamous cell carcinomas (SqCCs) and their occasional detection in this type of NSCLC has been ascribed by some authors to the misdiagnosis of cases that are adenosquamous carcinomas, or poorly differentiated LACs [<xref rid="B8-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
,<xref rid="B9-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>
]. Tumor stage seems to affect the mutation rate too. A recent study by the Memorial Sloan Kettering Integrated Mutation Profiling of Actionable Cancer Targets (MSK-IMPACT) group showed an incidence of <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations of 27% in a large cohort of multi-treated recurrent/metastatic LACs [<xref rid="B10-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>
], as opposed to the frequency of 11% reported in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) cohort, which mainly consisted of non-metastatic, surgically removed LACS that had not received systemic treatment [<xref rid="B3-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
].</p>
<p>Exon 19-microdeletions (exon 19dels) or deletion-insertions (exon 19delins), most commonly occurring at the p.E746-A750 region and less frequently involving other positions between E746 and I759, and the point-substitution p.L858R (L858R) in exon 21, represent together nearly 90% of all <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations in NSCLC [<xref rid="B1-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
,<xref rid="B2-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
]. These common mutations result in constitutive ligand-independent EGFR-TK activity and in increased affinity and sensitivity to EGFR-tyrosine-kinase-inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) of first-generation (1G; gefitinib, erlotinib) and second-generation (2G; afatinib, dacomitinib) [<xref rid="B4-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>
]. Exon 19dels and L858Rare almost exclusively early clonal events (founder mutations) involved in tumor initiation during the evolution of LAC, thus explaining the significant and uniform responses that are often observed across multiple cancer sites when these mutations are targeted by TKIs [<xref rid="B7-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>
,<xref rid="B11-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
,<xref rid="B12-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
]. The 1G EGFR-TKIs reversibly bind to the ATP-binding site of the intracellular TK-domain of EGFR, thereby impeding the autophosphorylation of EGFR and the activation of the downstream signaling-pathways, whereas 2G TKIs irreversibly bind and inhibit not only the TK-domain of EGFR, but also of other ERBB-family members, such as ERBB2 and ERBB4. Given these properties, 1G and 2G EGFR-TKIs for several years have represented the standard of care (SOC) first-line treatment for advanced <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+NSCLC, with the choice of first-line between 1G and 2G mostly linked to different toxicity profiles and mutation types, as afatinib is associated with more frequent side effects and is more effective in NSCLC cases harboring exon 19dels and uncommon <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations than in patients with L858R [<xref rid="B13-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>
,<xref rid="B14-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
]. However, the initial response is transient and virtually all <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLCs inevitably become resistant to first-line EGFR-TKIs, with a median progression-free survival (PFS) of 9–13 months [<xref rid="B15-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>
,<xref rid="B16-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>
]. Approximately 60% of cases of acquired resistance to 1G TKIs are due to the secondary p.T790M (T790M) <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutation in exon 20, which does activate EGFR, but possesses also an increased affinity for ATP that competitively hampers the binding of reversible EGFR-TKIs to the EGFR ATP-binding pocket [<xref rid="B17-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>
,<xref rid="B18-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>
]. The frequency of T790M in cases progressing during treatment with the 2G TKI afatinib seems to be even higher, reportedly more than 73% [<xref rid="B19-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>
].</p>
<p>Thus, the third-generation (3G), more central nervous system (CNS)-penetrant, irreversible EGFR-TKI, osimertinib, which selectively inhibits both EGFR-TKI-sensitizing mutations and T790M without binding wild-type (wt) EGFR, is approved worldwide as the SOC for second-line therapy of advanced T790M-positive NSCLC, given its superior efficacy over platinum-pemetrexed therapy in this setting, including in patients with CNS metastases [<xref rid="B20-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">20</xref>
,<xref rid="B21-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">21</xref>
]. In terms of the overall survival (OS) rate, more mature clinical trial data for osimertinib second-line (129 patients) or third- or later-line (282 patients) in pretreated T790M-mutant patients were recently reported, showing a median OS of 26.8 months and a 12-month, 24-month, and 36-month survival rate of 80%, 55%, and 37%, respectively, further supporting the choice of this drug in these patients [<xref rid="B22-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>
]. Outside clinical trials, a recent retrospective multicentric study of T790M-positive patients confirmed the efficacy of second-/third-line osimertinib in a real-world setting, both in patients with and without cerebral metastases [<xref rid="B23-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>
].</p>
<p>Importantly, osimertinib (at a dose of 80 mg once daily), in a recent comparison (FLAURA trial) with SOC 1G TKIs erlotinib and gefitinib in first-line management of treatment-naïve patients with advanced <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC, exhibited superior efficacy (median PFS of 18.9 months vs. 10.2 months; hazard ratio (HR) 0.46; <italic>p</italic>
< 0.001; median duration of response 17.2 months vs. 8.5 months), similar response rate (RR; 80% for osimertinib vs. 76% for SOC TKIs), and reduced frequency of serious adverse events (34% vs. 45%) [<xref rid="B24-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>
]. Another study testing osimertinib as first-line in treatment-naïve patients with advanced <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC showed a comparably robust RR (67% for patients receiving 80 mg/day, 87% for those receiving 160 mg/day) and protracted median PFS (22.1 months in the 80 mg group, 19.3 months in the 160 mg group) [<xref rid="B25-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>
]. Furthermore, in patients with untreated <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ advanced NSCLC from the phase III FLAURA study, osimertinib, in keeping with its higher CNS penetrance, demonstrated superior CNS efficacy and reduced risk of CNS progression when compared with SOC first-line EGFR-TKIs [<xref rid="B26-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">26</xref>
]. Even if more mature data on osimertinib’s OS rate derived from the FLAURA trial are awaited, and despite some concerns related to its cost-effectiveness [<xref rid="B27-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">27</xref>
,<xref rid="B28-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">28</xref>
], osimertinib holds great promise as first-line treatment for patients with advanced <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC. However, most T790-positive cases treated with this drug as second line become resistant within 9–13 months through different mechanisms that have been identified in tissue samples and plasma circulating free (cf)DNA [<xref rid="B25-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>
,<xref rid="B29-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>
,<xref rid="B30-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">30</xref>
]. The former mechanisms include most frequently tertiary <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations (especially C797S, but also rarer mutants at codon L718/G719, G796/C797, L792, L798, and others) and more seldom <italic>EGFR</italic>
-amplification or the reduction/disappearance of the T790M-mutation due to the emergence of “target-less” T790-negative clones [<xref rid="B29-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>

,<xref rid="B33-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">33</xref>
].</p>
<p>The EGFR-independent mechanisms of acquired resistance resemble those underlying progression upon treatment with 1G/2G TKIs, i.e., the activation of by-pass pathways via the amplification (<italic>ERBB2</italic>
/<italic>HER2, MET, FGFR1, KRAS</italic>
) or fusion (<italic>RET, ALK, FGFR3, NTRK1</italic>
) of alternative <italic>RTK</italic>
genes as well as activating mutations or fusions of members of the downstream RAS-RAF-MEK-MAPK and PI3K/AKT/PTEN/mTOR pathways [<xref rid="B25-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>
,<xref rid="B29-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>

,<xref rid="B38-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">38</xref>
]. Interestingly, in some cases characterized by particularly rapid progression (including cases fulfilling the temporal definition of intrinsic resistance in <xref ref-type="sec" rid="sec1dot1-cancers-11-00923">Section 1.1</xref>
) and poor survival on osimertinib, the appearance of <italic>RTK-</italic>
or <italic>BRAF</italic>
-fusions or <italic>KRAS-</italic>
mutations coincided with the loss of the T790M mutation and preservation of the original activating <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutation [<xref rid="B32-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">32</xref>
,<xref rid="B36-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">36</xref>
,<xref rid="B37-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">37</xref>
]. This suggests either that osimertinib has eliminated the T790M-positive clones or that the cancer cells themselves have lost this osimertinib-target, thereby switching from T790M as acquired driver to another acquired driver such as RTK- or BRAF-fusion proteins. Additional mechanisms of acquired resistance shared by TKIs of all three generations are the phenotypic transformation to small-cell lung cancer (SCLC), the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and the conversion to SqCC [<xref rid="B29-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>
] (see <xref ref-type="sec" rid="sec2dot3dot1-cancers-11-00923">Section 2.3.1</xref>
, <xref ref-type="sec" rid="sec2dot3dot2-cancers-11-00923">Section 2.3.2</xref>
and <xref ref-type="sec" rid="sec2dot3dot3-cancers-11-00923">Section 2.3.3</xref>
). Besides establishing the aspects of acquired TKI-resistance, recent years have also witnessed increasing focus on intrinsic resistance to EGFR-TKIs.</p>
<sec id="sec1dot1-cancers-11-00923"><title>1.1. Intrinsic (Primary, Inherent) TKI-Resistance</title>
<p>Although most of the patients with advanced <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC achieve objective response (OR) to TKIs, the extent and duration of responses are variable, and 20–30% of patients do not respond or respond for a very short time (typically <3 months) because of intrinsic resistance caused by de novo mechanisms believed to exist before treatment [<xref rid="B15-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>
,<xref rid="B39-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">39</xref>
]. Thus, in intrinsic/primary resistance the inefficacy of TKIs is immediately or very rapidly discernable, while in acquired/secondary resistance, disease progression occurs after an objective and sometimes prolonged clinical benefit from TKI-treatment. This benefit has been defined as either radiologically documented complete or partial response (CR, PR) or durable (≥6 months) stable disease (SD; defined by response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (RECIST) or World Health Organization (WHO) criteria) after TKI initiation and uninterrupted exposure without receiving additional systemic therapy after TKI discontinuation [<xref rid="B15-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>
,<xref rid="B16-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>
]. While the differentiation of intrinsic from acquired resistance is based on temporal and objectively measurable criteria, it is likely that what we call “acquired resistance” may combine the expansion of original clones pre-existing prior to treatment (as in the “intrinsic resistance”) and new resistance mechanisms developed as a form of gradual adaptive response of cancer cells to the treatment. This explains why a certain number of mechanisms appear to be shared by the two types of resistance.</p>
<p>While several mechanisms of acquired EGFR-TKI resistance have been uncovered by analyzing tumor specimens obtained at disease progression [<xref rid="B17-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>
,<xref rid="B18-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>
,<xref rid="B29-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>
], the factors influencing the initial response and causing primary resistance to TKIs have been less studied. However, comprehensive genomic profiling of tumor specimens by high-throughput next generation sequencing (NGS) analyses performed during the last decade has enabled the identification of the most frequent recurrent driver alterations, such as single nucleotide variants (SNVs)/point mutations, gene insertions and deletions (indels), copy number variations (CNVs), and overexpressed oncogenes that mediate the pathogenesis and progression of NSCLC, and that represent potential therapeutic targets [<xref rid="B3-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
,<xref rid="B8-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>

,<xref rid="B41-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">41</xref>
]. In particular, associating the results obtained by whole genome/exome sequencing or by more focused hotspot mutation analysis using targeted NGS of selected gene panels with the response to EGFR-TKIs has elucidated in recent years the mechanisms of intrinsic resistance to these drugs.</p>
<p>The first large-scale genome sequencing studies on NSCLC were primarily based on resected early-stage tumors not treated with TKIs, thus they supported the predominant view of one single, usually “mutually exclusive”, oncogenic driver, like the mutated <italic>EGFR</italic>
[<xref rid="B3-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
,<xref rid="B8-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
]. However, the following genomic analyses focusing on large cohorts of patients with advanced <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC have challenged this view and shown that other important genetic alterations regulating multiple signaling pathways are commonly co-occurring and function as co-drivers contributing to tumor progression and drug-resistance, both in the intrinsic and acquired resistance settings [<xref rid="B10-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>
,<xref rid="B12-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
]. In this review, we present the recurrent themes concerning intrinsic TKI-resistance that have emerged from these clinical studies, including significant similarities and differences between primary and secondary resistance. Furthermore, we discuss preclinical investigations in NSCLC cell lines and animal models that have elucidated or further corroborated specific mechanisms of inherent TKI-resistance.</p>

<p>Although most of the activating <italic>EGFR</italic>

]. Moreover, comparative genomic analysis of cfDNA from 1122 <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ and 1008 <italic>EGFR</italic>
-wt patients with stage III/IV NSCLC illustrated the extensive co-occurrence of other crucial somatic genetic alterations in the <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ population before TKI-therapy [<xref rid="B12-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>

M+ cases, with a mean of 2.58 ± 1.7 (S.E.M) genetic alterations beyond <italic>EGFR</italic>

M+ NSCLC [<xref rid="B12-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
]. By longitudinal investigation of cfDNA samples obtained from patients who were EGFR-TKI-naïve or had progressed on first-/second-line EGFR-TKI treatment, the same authors described that although the number of detectable somatic genetic alterations increased with each line of therapy, co-alterations of certain driver-genes where already identifiable before TKI-start [<xref rid="B12-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
]. Furthermore, the mean number of functional genetic co-alterations detectable in cfDNA was lower in patients who responded to a subsequent EGFR-TKI (of any generation) compared to non-responders. Finally, co-alterations in <italic>MET,</italic>
other genes of the MAPK, PI3K, and Wnt/β-catenin pathways or cell cycle genes were associated with poor response to EGFR-TKIs [<xref rid="B12-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>

itself or in other cancer-drivers at baseline may potentially impair the efficacy of EGFR-TKIs and explain why some TKI-treated NSCLCs are intrinsically resistant [<xref rid="B18-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>
]. This, in turn, means that we should expect an increased investigational and medical burden for NSCLC patients and economic burden for health systems, as additional therapies or drug combinations need to be implemented for tackling the problem of TKI-resistance. It also suggests that the current routine testing of <italic>EGFR</italic>
, <italic>ALK</italic>
, and <italic>ROS1</italic>
performed on tumor tissue or plasma samples for selecting NSCLC patients treatable with first-line targeted therapy is actually not enough to predict the response to the approved TKIs.</p>
<p>The increasing availability of size-variable NGS panels can provide relevant information for both SOC predictive biomarkers and investigational treatment options based on the analysis of potentially actionable genetic events [<xref rid="B10-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>

,<xref rid="B50-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">50</xref>
]. We recently addressed this topic too by evaluating the frequency of an extended panel of cancer-relevant mutations that could have possibly affected the initial response to erlotinib in a consecutive series of <italic>EGFR</italic>

-negative/<italic>ROS1</italic>
-negative advanced NSCLCs [<xref rid="B51-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">51</xref>
]. In this cohort, the initial <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutation status had been tested by the commercially available real-time/quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based Cobas<sup>®</sup>
EGFR Mutation assay v2 (Roche Molecular Diagnostics), which is Food and Drug Administration (FDA)- and European Medicines Agency (EMA)-approved as a companion diagnostic test for erlotinib, gefitinib and osimertinib in tissue and liquid biopsy samples and can detect 42 known <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations. The retrospective analysis of possible relevant co-alterations using targeted NGS, fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH), and immunohistochemistry (IHC) indeed indicated that concomitant occurrence of other mutations in <italic>EGFR</italic>
itself or other genes may have an impact on the response to erlotinib [<xref rid="B51-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">51</xref>
]. Similarly, a retrospective analysis of cfDNA from a Chinese cohort of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC cases before treatment with 1G EGFR-TKIs detected co-existing mutations in <italic>EGFR</italic>
or other cancer-relevant genes in 22% and 55% of patients, respectively, and showed that these co-alterations correlated with poor OR and OS after implementing these drugs [<xref rid="B52-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">52</xref>
]. Another recent retrospective study confirmed that a significant fraction of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLCs harbors co-mutations in other genes, which can negatively affect the response to EGFR-TKIs [<xref rid="B53-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">53</xref>
].</p>
<p>In the following sections, we will discuss co-mutations and other factors that may affect the response to EGFR-TKIs and thereby represent inherent mechanisms of resistance to these drugs in NSCLC patients. <xref ref-type="fig" rid="cancers-11-00923-f001">Figure 1</xref>

<sec id="sec2dot1-cancers-11-00923"><title>2.1. Impact of EGFR-Mutations or -Co-Mutations on Response to EGFR-TKIs</title>
<p>Published data clearly indicate that both the type and number of <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations can impact the responsiveness to EGFR-TKIs of NSCLC patients. Given the higher incidence of single or combined <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations in East-Asian NSCLC populations, most of the findings and interpretations on the effect of <italic>EGFR</italic>
co-mutations (called complex mutations by some authors) on TKI-treatment come from studies in East-Asian cohorts. Moreover, a plethora of rare <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations occurring alone or in combination with more common mutants have been occasionally observed in connection with disease progression after 1G EGFR-TKIs, both in the primary and acquired resistance setting [<xref rid="B54-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">54</xref>
]. A recognized general notion is that TKI-treated NSCLC patients with complex <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations (≥2 different co-existing <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations) show inferior RR and shorter PFS than patients with single <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations, unless the combined mutations are the common exon19dels and L858R [<xref rid="B55-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">55</xref>
,<xref rid="B56-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">56</xref>
]. In this respect, we and others have identified by NGS analysis cases of advanced NSCLC with co-mutations in the <italic>EGFR</italic>
gene differently affecting the treatment outcome, including cases showing no OR to erlotinib and co-existence at baseline of the L858R and the intrinsic erlotinib-resistant T790M <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations [<xref rid="B51-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">51</xref>
]. <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations that are insensitive to current TKIs represent a mechanism of “pharmacological” intrinsic resistance due to conformational changes in the drug-binding site of EGFR rather than to the biological signaling properties of the mutant EGFR-protein.</p>
<p>As for acquired resistance to 1G/2G EGFR-TKIs, T790M is the de novo <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutation most commonly associated with intrinsic resistance, whereas alternative secondary resistant <italic>EGFR</italic>
-substitutions, such as L747S, D761Y, and T854A are much more rarely involved [<xref rid="B57-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">57</xref>
,<xref rid="B58-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">58</xref>
]. Several studies using conventional mutation analysis including Sanger sequencing, allele-specific PCR techniques, and NGS, occasionally (<1% incidence) detected the de novo T790M mutation at low allele frequency (AF) either alone or as a minor clone within treatment-naive specimens (biopsies or cfDNA) containing classic sensitizing <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations [<xref rid="B54-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">54</xref>

,<xref rid="B59-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">59</xref>
]. The frequency of de novo T790M was 4.2% among 437 assessable patients in the randomized pan-Asian phase III IPASS trial [<xref rid="B2-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
], while it accounted for 2% (16/800) of all identified <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutant cases in a large Chinese cohort of 1903 resected NSCLCs [<xref rid="B60-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">60</xref>
] and was estimated to be <3% in Caucasians using Sanger sequencing [<xref rid="B1-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
]. Recently, two Chinese and one Italian NGS-based studies identified a de novo T790M co-mutation in 5.8%, 14%, and 6.8% of TKI-naïve patients concomitantly carrying sensitizing <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations, respectively [<xref rid="B52-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">52</xref>
,<xref rid="B53-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">53</xref>
,<xref rid="B61-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">61</xref>
]. These data not only indicate that combined mutations may impact the occurrence of specific resistant <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations such as T790M, but also that the higher sensitivity of NGS panels compared to previous DNA-sequencig methods may increase the frequency of T790M co-mutation.</p>
<p>As opposed to cases with T790M acquired during TKI-treatment, de novo T790M mutations more frequently coexist with L858R than with <italic>EGFR</italic>
exon 19dels [<xref rid="B51-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">51</xref>
,<xref rid="B54-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">54</xref>

,<xref rid="B62-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">62</xref>
]. Importantly, meta-analysis showed that the identification of this association required sensitive methods (with detection limit of <5%), such as NGS, locked nucleic acid PCR or quantitative PCR [<xref rid="B62-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">62</xref>
]. In this regard, standard PCR followed by a modified colony hybridization technique with analytical sensitivity as low as 0.01% revealed the co-occurrence of de novo T790M at very low AF in 35–79% of TKI-naïve NSCLCs with sensitizing <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations [<xref rid="B63-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">63</xref>
,<xref rid="B64-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">64</xref>
]. Although their clinical significance remains to be better determined, these findings do confirm that a substantial subgroup of patients with <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC harbor some tumor cells with T790M co-mutation already before EGFR-TKI treatment. They also suggest that routine <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutation analysis at baseline should be performed with methods capable of detecting low-frequency co-mutations that could potentially impact response to TKI-treatment. Accordingly, early in vitro observations indicated that the co-presence of T790M may increase the oncogenic activity of common <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutants, such as exon 19dels and L858R [<xref rid="B65-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">65</xref>
], which may explain the possible occurrence of this mutant before TKI-treatment and its drug-induced selection as drug-resistant mutation during therapy.</p>
<p>The de novo and acquired T790M also seem to differ significantly in terms of the average relative allele frequency (RAF = AF of T790M/AF of sensitizing <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutation). Indeed, the RAF of T790M was reported higher in the de novo group (86.1% vs. 22.3%, <italic>p</italic>
< 0.0001) [<xref rid="B61-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">61</xref>
]. Consequently, the only patient achieving partial response (PR) among the 10 patients with de novo T790M that Tian et al. treated with erlotinib was the one with the lowest T790M RAF (19.7%), while the other nine patients with an average T790M RAF of 85.9% did not display OR. Notably, in the de novo group, the cases with the highest T790M RAF also harbored <italic>EGFR</italic>
gene-amplification, possibly making them further TKI-resistant [<xref rid="B61-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">61</xref>
], as selective amplification of the T790M-containing allele represents a combination of two resistance mechanisms within the <italic>EGFR</italic>
-gene [<xref rid="B29-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>
,<xref rid="B57-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">57</xref>
]. This combination mechanistically resembles the <italic>anaplastic lymphoma kinase</italic>
(<italic>ALK)</italic>
-fusion gene-amplification detectable in certain <italic>ALK</italic>
-positive patients becoming resistant to ALK-TKIs [<xref rid="B57-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">57</xref>
].</p>
<p>Collectively, the data infer that, as for any TKI-resistant mutation, a certain number (clone) of T790M-positive cells may co-exist with sensitizing <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations in the heterogenous tumor tissue before treatment with 1G/2G TKIs and hamper the efficacy of these drugs [<xref rid="B11-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
,<xref rid="B63-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">63</xref>
,<xref rid="B66-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">66</xref>
]. If the RAF of T790M in this subclone is enough to immediately/very rapidly oppose the effect of TKI-treatment, it may result in intrinsic resistance, lack of OR, and poor outcome in patients receiving 1G/2G TKIs (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="cancers-11-00923-f001">Figure 1</xref>
). If, instead, the RAF of T790M in the tumor tissue is too low to immediately counteract the TKI effect (in which case it will often be undetectable with routine analyses), the initial small population of T790M-positive cancer cells may be gradually expanded over time under the selective pressure generated by the TKI-treatment itself, until it can effectively counter the therapeutic effect of TKIs and cause secondary resistance and tumor progression after an initial OR or SD [<xref rid="B66-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">66</xref>
]. In this respect, a recent retrospective analysis of a relatively small phase II study of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC patients receiving afatinib plus bevacizumab combination therapy after becoming unresponsive to gefitinib suggested that this combined treatment could induce a more effective clonal selection of pre-existing T790M-positive cancer cells in heterogeneous tumors than gefitinib [<xref rid="B67-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">67</xref>
]. Therefore, according to the authors, this combined treatment could be exploited to provoke the conversion of T790M-negative patients into T790M-positive ones in order to allocate them to more effective treatment with osimertinib [<xref rid="B67-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">67</xref>
]. Although appealing as a potential therapeutic strategy, these notions await more validation in larger cohorts.</p>
<p>Likewise, the T790M RAF might be considered as predictive biomarker for treatment response to 1G and 2G EGFR-TKIs [<xref rid="B61-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">61</xref>
], but further research is needed to validate the possible clinical applicability and usefulness of this approach. For the time being, the simple detection of contemporaneous de novo T790M and sensitizing <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations in NSCLC samples at baseline should be considered as an indication for employing osimertinib as first-line treatment in these cases. It is worthwhile underlining that a single gene alteration such as T790M may not necessarily be sufficient to cause EGFR-TKI resistance [<xref rid="B12-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
]. Large-scale genomic analysis of cfDNA from patients with advanced <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC showed that specific genetic co-alterations in other cancer drivers (<italic>CDK6, CCNE1, CTNNB1, AR, MYC, BRCA1</italic>
) may co-occur with T790M in advanced NSCLC, suggesting a collaborative functional role for these co-altered genes in driving EGFR-TKI resistance together with the T790M mutant [<xref rid="B12-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
]. This is consistent with the concept of polyclonal TKI-resistance [<xref rid="B57-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">57</xref>
] and with cases of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC displaying different mechanisms of TKI-resistance in separate metastatic sites [<xref rid="B68-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">68</xref>
].</p>
<p>Given the frequent clonal heterogeneity of NSCLCs, the lack of T790M in a single tumor biopsy at baseline cannot exclude a priori the occurrence of few tumor cells with de novo T790M intrinsically resistant to first-line TKIs. In fact, there is now compelling evidence for using cfDNA isolated from plasma and genotyped by PCR or NGS techniques as a valid tool for non-invasive assessment of the possible occurrence of T790M and other TKI-unresponsive mutations at baseline or acquired during treatment in patients, whose tumors are heterogeneous or inaccessible by tissue biopsy [<xref rid="B12-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
,<xref rid="B48-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">48</xref>

,<xref rid="B71-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">71</xref>
]. Liquid biopsies and tissue re-biopsies have shown high concordance for mutation-detection and for predicting the response to EGFR-TKIs of all three generations, supporting the applicability of cfDNA as tool to monitor the response to TKIs and to identify resistance-drivers [<xref rid="B32-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">32</xref>
,<xref rid="B48-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">48</xref>

,<xref rid="B72-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">72</xref>
]. Furthermore, it has been documented that the appearance and increase of resistance-mutations in cfDNA of TKI-treated patients with advanced <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC is detectable several days (from 15 to 344 days) prior to radiological evidence of progression [<xref rid="B73-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">73</xref>
]. However, false negative results due to suboptimal sensitivity or non-shedding tumor clones may represent a limiting factor in certain cases, thus analysis of tissue biopsies, when feasible, remains the SOC and is recommendable when no resistance-causing mutations are identified in cfDNA at progression. In this regard, Ramalingam and co-workers were not able to clarify the mechanisms of resistance to first-line osimertinib in 50% of their patients that had been monitored using post-progression plasma samples (<italic>n</italic>
= 38), because of lack of detectable circulating tumor DNA in these liquid biopsies [<xref rid="B25-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>
]. Also relevant for detecting resistance-mutations and overcoming the problem of mutational tumor heterogeneity and missed mutations by bulk NGS, is the rapid development of high-throughput single-cell DNA sequencing and gene-expression analysis for assessing clonal evolution in tumors [<xref rid="B74-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">74</xref>
].</p>
<p>Regarding less common <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations, the relative scarcity of clinical cases analyzed has precluded for quite some time the possibility of drawing firm conclusions on their response to different EGFR-TKIs in NSCLC patients and their possible role in intrinsic resistance. Yet, there is now accumulating evidence confirming that also some of the uncommon <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations can negatively affect the response to TKIs. Focusing on the most relevant of these mutations, we and others have reported outcomes in erlotinib- or gefitinib-treated NSCLC cases carrying at baseline the exon 18 G719X (G719C, G719S, G719A or G719D), exon 20 S768I, or exon 21 L861Q <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations, which are present in 1–8% of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLCs and often occur simultaneously as complex mutants (G719X+S768I/L861Q) [<xref rid="B1-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>

,<xref rid="B80-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">80</xref>
]. Together with even more uncommon single or complex (≥2 different co-existing) mutations in exon 18, 20 or 21, the G719X, S768I, and L861Q mutants, although structurally considered TKI-sensitizing [<xref rid="B76-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">76</xref>
,<xref rid="B81-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">81</xref>

,<xref rid="B87-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">87</xref>
]. The frequency of these different uncommon mutations and the reported associated values for RR and survival vary among different reports, which is likely related to the retrospective character of these studies and the heterogenous cohorts analyzed. Interestingly, some studies found a significant association between these uncommon <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations and smoking habits as opposed to the common exon 19dels and L858R that are much more frequent among non-smokers [<xref rid="B80-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">80</xref>
,<xref rid="B85-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">85</xref>
]. Also, some data indicate that these uncommon <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutants, although being often combined with each other in the same tumor, are rarely associated with mutations in other oncogenic drivers at baseline. This suggests that they may be sufficient for promoting tumor growth and for causing a sort of “pharmacological”, and not biological, intrinsic resistance to TKI-treatment (related to the conformation of the drug-binding pocket in these mutants), without the need for additional mechanisms [<xref rid="B80-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">80</xref>
,<xref rid="B81-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">81</xref>
].</p>
<p>A recent “real-world” study evaluating the efficacy and outcomes of treatment with 1G EGFR-TKIs vs. platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with advanced LAC harboring uncommon mutations alone or in combination [<xref rid="B88-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">88</xref>
] showed no significant difference in RR between the two groups (33% for EGFR-TKIs vs. 27% for chemotherapy, <italic>p</italic>
= 0.5), which in both cases is far less than the RR in patients with common <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations [<xref rid="B2-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
]. Interestingly, the PFS was 7.2 months among patients with uncommon mutations treated with 1G EGFR-TKIs compared to 4.9 months in the chemotherapy group (<italic>p</italic>
= 0.00088), while the median OS was significantly worse in patients receiving TKIs than in those managed with chemotherapy (14.3 vs. 20.7 months, <italic>p</italic>
= 0.0336). Thus, the study by Li et al. [<xref rid="B88-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">88</xref>
] confirms the reduced sensitivity to 1G EGFR-TKIs of the uncommon <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutants and suggests that longer OS may be achieved in these patients by adding chemotherapy to their management.</p>
<p>However, most patients with G719X, S768I or L861Q, alone or in combination with other mutations are significantly more responsive to afatinib (higher RR, longer PFS and OS than 1G EGFR-TKIs), whereas this drug is not effective in cases with de-novo T790M alone/combined with other mutations or with exon 20-insertions (exon 20ins) [<xref rid="B81-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">81</xref>

,<xref rid="B90-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">90</xref>
]. The combined post-hoc analysis of LUX-Lung 2, LUX-Lung 3, and LUX-Lung 6 indicated that the RR to afatinib was higher for patients with G719X (77.8%) than for those with L861Q (56.3%) [<xref rid="B90-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">90</xref>
]. In any case, the current indication for afatinib includes NSCLC-patients with exon 19dels or with the uncommon G719X, S768I or L861Q <italic>EGFR</italic>
-substitutions, though patients with these mutations, over time, can become resistant to afatinib by acquiring a secondary T790M mutation or more rarely other substitutions in exon 20 [<xref rid="B89-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">89</xref>

]. Intriguingly, preclinical data suggest that G719X, S768I and L861Q are more sensitive to afatinib than to erlotinib or osimertinib [<xref rid="B89-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">89</xref>
,<xref rid="B92-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">92</xref>
] and that osimertinib has limited efficacy on NSCLC cells harboring these mutations, irrespective of the co-presence of T790M mutation [<xref rid="B92-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">92</xref>
]. Furthermore, among the seven NSCLC patients with G719X mutations included in the AURA trial for second-line osimertinib, only one (RR = 14%) showed partial response (PR), three (43%) had SD, and three (43%) displayed progressive disease (PD) [<xref rid="B93-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">93</xref>
]. In keeping with that, lack of response to osimertinib and immediate progression have been described in a patient with G719S/T790M co-mutations [<xref rid="B92-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">92</xref>
] and another one with co-existing G719S, S768I, and T790M mutations [<xref rid="B94-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">94</xref>
]. Collectively, these data seem to indicate that osimertinib, as opposed to afatinib, is less effective in patients with <italic>EGFR</italic>
G719X and other uncommon mutations than in those with classic <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutants, both in the presence and absence of T790M co-mutation.</p>
<p>In our cohort, we identified a case that carried the G719C/S768I combination and somehow surprisingly showed OR to erlotinib, considering that it also harbored <italic>MET</italic>
-amplification, MET-overexpression, and mutated <italic>TP53</italic>
. Similarly, Hong et al. observed PR to erlotinib in patients, whose <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC harbored G719X or L861Q together with co-mutations in other cancer-driver genes [<xref rid="B52-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">52</xref>
]. Moreover, Lund-Iversen et al. [<xref rid="B79-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">79</xref>
] reported one G719X/S768I co-mutated case showing PR to erlotinib for more than 14 months, while a long-lasting response to erlotinib with 9-year survival has recently been observed in a patient with NSCLC concomitantly harboring <italic>EGFR</italic>
G719S and a <italic>KRAS</italic>
G12C mutations [<xref rid="B95-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">95</xref>
]. Thus, given the apparently variable response of TKI-treated cases with uncommon mutants (alone or combined) the exact prognostic and predictive role of these mutations in NSCLC treated with different EGFR-TKIs remains to be further investigated.</p>
<p>A separate <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC in our cohort exhibited the unusual combination of two rare exon 19 mutations, the microdeletion E746_R748del and the substitution A750P, together with the p.T1010I point-mutation in the <italic>MET</italic>
-gene [<xref rid="B51-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">51</xref>
]. The response of these two exon 19-mutations to EGFR-TKIs is insufficiently determined, while the <italic>MET</italic>
-substitution has been associated with decreased sensitivity to these drugs [<xref rid="B96-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">96</xref>
]. Nevertheless, our case did show PR to erlotinib with PFS longer than 17 months. Another case in our cohort displayed an insertion in <italic>EGFR</italic>
exon 19 resulting in the 6-amino-acid duplication I744_K745insKIPVAI together with a missense <italic>TP53</italic>
-mutation and increased <italic>MET</italic>
-gene copy number associated with MET-overexpression. The sensitivity of <italic>EGFR</italic>
exon 19-insertions (exon 19ins) to EGFR-TKIs is unclear, given that these mutations have been observed in only 0.26% and 0.11% of large Caucasian and Asian cohorts of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC patients, respectively [<xref rid="B97-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">97</xref>
,<xref rid="B98-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">98</xref>
]. This probably reflects not only a rare occurrence, but also the fact that probes for <italic>EGFR</italic>
exon 19ins and the exon 20 insertion A763_Y764 insFQEA (see underneath on page 11 in this <xref ref-type="sec" rid="sec2dot1-cancers-11-00923">Section 2.1</xref>
) are not always incorporated in the commercially available targeted mutation testing kits, thus higher frequency of these and other uncommon <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations might be expected to be recorded with the increasing use of targeted NGS, whole-exome sequencing and whole-genome sequencing [<xref rid="B98-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">98</xref>
]. Recently, a meta-analysis of the few published cases with exon 19ins indicated that these mutations were associated with slightly lower RR than patients with common <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations (56% vs. >65%) and a median time to progression of 10.4 months, but incomplete PFS/OS data in this small cohort hampered the comparison [<xref rid="B98-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">98</xref>
]. In this regard, our case with the exon 19 I744_K745insKIPVAI mutation showed no OR to erlotinib, however one cannot exclude that this was partly or completely due to the concurrent <italic>TP53</italic>
-mutation and increased <italic>MET-</italic>
gene copy number [<xref rid="B51-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">51</xref>
].</p>
<p>Additional uncommon somatic <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations that have been detected in NSCLC patients displaying very rapid disease progression after initiation of first line TKI-treatment are the L747P substitution in exon 19 and short in-frame insertions/duplications in exon 20. The very rare L747P seems capable of conferring intrinsic resistance to EGFR-TKIs of all three generations [<xref rid="B54-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">54</xref>

].</p>
<p>In-frame exon 20ins represent 5–10% of all <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations in NSCLC and occur more frequently between codon 767 and 775 encoding the C-helix of EGFR-TK domain (A767 to C775) that regulates the binding of both ATP and EGFR-TKIs. They are though, a heterogeneous group of mutations with >50 different insertion types reported and spanning a significantly wider stretch of exon 20 [<xref rid="B103-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">103</xref>
]. Patients with exon 20ins display primary resistance to EGFR-TKIs of 1G/2G with reported RR and median PFS of <10% and 1–3 months, respectively [<xref rid="B1-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>

,<xref rid="B103-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">103</xref>
]. The crystal structure and cell-based mutation screening of exon 20ins suggest that these mutants have unchanged ATP-binding pocket but, unlike sensitizing mutations, they activate EGFR by changing the conformation and relieving key autoinhibitory interactions within the C-helix of the TK-domain, which, in turn, sterically diminish the access of the TKIs to EGFR drug-binding pocket [<xref rid="B103-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">103</xref>
,<xref rid="B104-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">104</xref>
]. The EGFR A763_Y764insFQEA in-frame insertion, which accounts for 8–11% of all exon 20ins mutants and structurally and enzymatically more closely resembles L858R than other exon 20ins, is an exception as both preclinical and clinical data indicate that it is sensitive to erlotinib, gefitinib and afatinib [<xref rid="B98-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">98</xref>
,<xref rid="B103-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">103</xref>
]. Accordingly, the analysis of patients harboring the A763_Y764insFQEA insertion displayed a RR to EGFR-TKIs of 73% [<xref rid="B98-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">98</xref>
].</p>
<p>The effect of osimertinib on EGFR exon 20ins appears controversial. NSCLC-derived cell lines and Ba/F3 cells that were transduced with clinically relevant exon 20 insertions know to be associated with resistance to 1G/2G EGFR-TKIs, such as Y764_V765insHH, A767_V769dupASV, and D770_N771insNPG, showed comparable sensitivity to afatinib and osimertinib. Both drugs were significantly more effective in inhibiting the growth of these cells than erlotinib, but osimertinib exhibited greater potency and mutation-specificity than afatinib [<xref rid="B92-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">92</xref>
]. On the other hand, another recent in vitro study has shown that EGFR-TKIs of all three generations were unable to hinder common EGFR exon 20ins mutants, when used in concentrations not affecting the wt EGFR [<xref rid="B105-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">105</xref>
]. Although, single clinical cases and structural studies suggest that some exon 20ins may indeed respond to osimertinib [<xref rid="B104-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">104</xref>
,<xref rid="B106-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">106</xref>
], the efficacy of this drug on these mutations at approved or higher dosage remains to be substantiated by additional dose-adjusted clinical studies and awaits the results of specific ongoing trials [<xref rid="B107-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">107</xref>
]. Recent preclinical data have shown that the combination of afatinib or osimertinib with the anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody cetuximab may inhibit the growth of NSCLC cells carrying certain types of exon 20ins in vitro or in a xenograft mouse model [<xref rid="B108-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">108</xref>
]. Although skin toxicity is a substantial limiting factor for the clinical application of this combined treatment, recently PR was reported with the usage of afatinib + cetuximab in three of four NSCLC patients with EGFR exon 20ins receiving this therapeutic combination [<xref rid="B109-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">109</xref>
,<xref rid="B110-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">110</xref>
]. Moreover, new selective TKIs targeting <italic>EGFR</italic>
and <italic>ERBB2</italic>
exon 20 insertions, such as poziotinib, TAS6417, and others have shown efficacy in preclinical models and promising preliminary results in early clinical trials. This mechanistically can be ascribed to their smaller size and higher level of halogenation and flexibility, as compared to the larger and more rigid TKIs of 1G/2G [<xref rid="B111-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">111</xref>
,<xref rid="B112-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">112</xref>
]. A potentially alternative therapeutic approach considers that EGFR exon 20ins mutants depend on the association with the heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) chaperone system. Accordingly, the Hsp90-inhibitor luminespib has recently shown inhibitory activity against NSCLC cells with different <italic>EGFR</italic>
exon 20ins and OR in a patient with LAC carrying an exon 20ins resistant to EGFR-TKI treatment [<xref rid="B105-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">105</xref>
].</p>
<p>In addition to somatic mutations, other reported EGFR-associated mechanisms for inherent resistance to EGFR-TKIs are the germline T790M polymorphism in exon 20 and the germline V843I mutation in exon 21 [<xref rid="B113-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">113</xref>

,<xref rid="B115-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">115</xref>
]. NSCLCs with germline T790M or V843I mutations are predominantly LACs harboring a secondary somatic classic <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutation and occur more frequently in females and non-smokers [<xref rid="B115-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">115</xref>
]. The families harboring the T790M or V843I mutations are predisposed to NSCLC development as these mutations contribute to tumorigenesis by promoting phosphorylation of EGFR and its downstream signaling proteins. Like T790M, the V843I mutation is associated with familial clustering of NSCLC and appears to provide resistance to EGFR-TKIs through structural modification of EGFR that sterically hinders TKI binding [<xref rid="B113-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">113</xref>
,<xref rid="B114-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">114</xref>
]. Thus, cases with germline T790M or V843I mutations could be categorized as a class of familial lung cancer syndrome with resistance to 1G/2G EGFR-TKIs but possibly sensitive to 3G TKIs [<xref rid="B114-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">114</xref>

].</p>
<p>Therapeutic strategies for uncommon <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations are limited by the low incidence and heterogeneity of these alterations, which limit their inclusion in most clinical trials for EGFR-TKI-based treatment. Thus, the evidence regarding uncommon <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations, until now, has relied on single case reports or small case series. Studies of a larger scale are warranted [<xref rid="B81-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">81</xref>

<sec id="sec2dot2-cancers-11-00923"><title>2.2. Role of Co-Mutations in Alternative Cancer-Drivers</title>
<p>Several studies have addressed whether possible co-mutations in alternative cancer-drivers could represent mechanisms of inherent resistance to EGFR-TKIs. An exploratory investigation by targeted NGS of 197 consecutive NSCLCs with sensitizing <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations displayed 11 cases intrinsically resistant to EGFR-TKIs, but the authors were able to detect concomitant driver mutations in only three of them (one case showed <italic>EGFR</italic>

In the eight cases without detectable driver co-mutations, primary resistance may have been caused by DNA-mutations or other events (RNA splicing variants, epigenetic mechanisms, protein modifications, pharmacokinetic factors) not assessable by the utilized NGS panel. In our cohort of erlotinib-treated NSCLCs, 71% of cases revealed concurrent mutations in alternative cancer-drivers prior to TKI-treatment [<xref rid="B51-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">51</xref>

-mutations [<xref rid="B44-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">44</xref>
]. Finally, a recent investigation of 374 consecutive untreated metastatic <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLCs undertaken by the wide-targeted NGS platform used at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) in New York found 200 cases with coexisting alterations, the most frequent of which were mutations in <italic>TP53, PIK3CA, CTNNB1</italic>

were significantly associated with a shorter time to progression [<xref rid="B38-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">38</xref>
]. Together, these studies suggest that in untreated advanced <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC co-mutations in other cancer-drivers are much more frequent than previously anticipated and may act as mechanisms of inherent resistance to gefitinib and erlotinib.

-mutations remains to be elucidated. Moreover, inactivation of <italic>TP53</italic>
function in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC may also occur post-transcriptionally via another frequent primary co-alteration, i.e., de novo amplification of the <italic>MDM2</italic>

<p>Recurrent inactivation of retinoblastoma protein 1 (RB1), another major tumor suppressor and cell-cycle regulator downstream EGFR, has also been detected in LAC, either due to mutation of the <italic>RB1</italic>

co-alteration, Lo Russo et al. [<xref rid="B91-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">91</xref>

This is also due to the lack of standardized methods for performing MET IHC (different sensitivity/specificity of the various commercial antibodies against different epitopes of MET) and for scoring MET expression levels [<xref rid="B134-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">134</xref>

Only the highest MET expression by IHC (i.e., 3+) was predictive of response in this study and the ORR for the MET-overexpressing 3+ cases was 32%, thus noticeably lower than the ORR of >50% observed when targeting selected patient subpopulations harboring other NSCLC-drivers such as <italic>EGFR-, ALK-, ROS1</italic>

copy number gain at baseline in 11 out of 35 gefitinib-treated <italic>EGFR</italic>

T790M mutation or <italic>MET</italic>
-amplification [<xref rid="B143-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">143</xref>
]. Collectively, the data indicate that concurrent activation of MET-driven bypass signaling at baseline in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC is an event capable of immediately interfering with the efficacy of EGFR-TKIs but can also represent a potential therapeutic co-target for combinatorial first-line strategies aimed at overcoming EGFR-TKI resistance. The above-mentioned phase Ib/II trial combining gefitinib with the selective MET-inhibitor capmatinib has shown OR in a substantial fraction of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLCs acquiring resistance to the EGFR-TKI through increased <italic>MET</italic>
-gene copy number (ORR of 47% in cases with six or more mean <italic>MET</italic>
copies/cell as determined by FISH), thus confirming the clinical feasibility and usefulness of concomitant blockage of EGFR- and MET-signaling in tumors with <italic>EGFR</italic>
/<italic>MET</italic>
co-alterations, at least in the progression setting [<xref rid="B135-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">135</xref>

<p>However, in our cohort the presence of altered <italic>MET</italic>
-status at baseline did not inevitably result in a lack of OR to erlotinib-treatment [<xref rid="B51-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">51</xref>
]. The above-mentioned case with co-existing <italic>EGFR</italic>
exon 19-duplication (I744_ K745insKIPVAI), <italic>TP53</italic>
- mutation, and increased <italic>MET</italic>
copy number associated with MET-overexpression, did not respond to erlotinib [<xref rid="B51-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">51</xref>
], conceivably reflecting a so-called polyclonal TKI-resistance [<xref rid="B57-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">57</xref>
]. In contrast, other cases with <italic>MET</italic>
-mutation or copy number gain and/or MET-overexpression, did show a PR to erlotinib, regardless of the co-presence of a <italic>TP53</italic>
-mutation. Similarly, others recently reported in a cohort of 133 <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLCs, four cases having co-mutation of <italic>MET</italic>
and yet displaying OR to 1G EGFR-TKIs [<xref rid="B53-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">53</xref>
]. Thus, despite <italic>MET</italic>
-amplified tumor cells potentially resistant to EGFR-TKIs may already exist at baseline, the clinical significance of these cells in intrinsic resistance requires further confirmation in large cohorts. Ideally, these future studies should also establish the most efficient MET-biomarkers (IHC, FISH, and DNA/RNA sequencing), since part of the above-mentioned discrepancies regarding OR to TKIs in <italic>MET</italic>
co-amplified cases could be due to the lack of standardized methods for determining <italic>MET</italic>
-amplification. In particular, the <italic>MET</italic>

M+ NSCLCs should be implemented for planning combinatorial therapies aimed at improving the outcome of cases with these co-alterations.

On the other hand, Oxnard et al. studying acquired resistance in osimertinib-treated NSCLCs with secondary T790M mutation, observed that in contrast to the patients maintaining T790M at the time of resistance (32%) and progressing after approximately 15 months of treatment mainly by acquisition of tertiary C797S mutation, the patients who had lost T790M (68%) progressed within 6 months through a range of competing resistance mechanisms, including <italic>KRAS</italic>

Together, these data suggest that pre-existing resistant clones with these alterations are selected and expanded by TKI-treatment, ultimately leading to resistance acquisition over relatively short time, but they may not necessarily cause immediate inherent resistance [<xref rid="B32-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">32</xref>

co-mutated patients, the authors inferred that KRAS-induced intrinsic resistance may ensue only when the relative AF of <italic>KRAS</italic>
-mutants is sufficiently high to counteract the effect of EGFR-TKIs on cancer cells [<xref rid="B53-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">53</xref>
], a concept that in principle may be applied to other resistance-associated co-mutations. Another potential explanation may come from the recent study by Moll et al. [<xref rid="B150-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">150</xref>
] suggesting that, in contrast to common opinion, resistance to 1G TKIs in <italic>KRAS</italic>
–mutated NSCLC may not be entirely caused by constitutive activation of KRAS but also by transcriptional upregulation of all the ERBB-family members. The authors also showed in cell lines and a mouse model that growth of <italic>KRAS</italic>
–mutated NSCLC depends on upstream activation of EGFR. Consequently, genetical or pharmacological suppression of EGFR signaling by 1G EGFR-TKIs transiently down-regulates also the activity of mutant KRAS and related downstream signaling pathways. However, the gradual activation of the other ERBB-family members functions as a compensatory mechanism that can reestablish KRAS signaling over time and make cancer cells TKI-resistant [<xref rid="B150-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">150</xref>
]. In contrast, the pan-ERBB inhibitor, afatinib, can block this compensatory mechanism and stably inhibit KRAS activity, thereby reducing the growth of <italic>KRAS</italic>
-mutated NSCLC cells in preclinical models [<xref rid="B150-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">150</xref>

co-mutated NSCLC in human patients.</p>
<p>Further illustrating the incompletely defined role of <italic>RAS</italic>

and <italic>KRAS</italic>
genes share conserved sequences, their protein products appear to regulate distinct oncogenic signaling events and to differently depend upon the downstream MEK pathway in NSCLC cells [<xref rid="B151-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">151</xref>
,<xref rid="B152-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">152</xref>

-mutations in TKI-resistance, despite being in principle comparable to that of <italic>KRAS</italic>
-mutations, remains poorly explored. Interestingly, using TKI-resistant NSCLC cell lines, Eberlein et al. discovered that certain <italic>NRAS</italic>
mutations and <italic>NRAS</italic>
copy number gain are a frequent mechanism of resistance to erlotinib and osimertinib. Additionally, they showed in mouse models that combining osimertinib with the MEK-inhibitor selumetinib re-sensitized osimertinib-resistant <italic>EGFR/NRAS</italic>
co-mutated lung tumors to this EGFR-TKI [<xref rid="B153-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">153</xref>

<p>Somatic <italic>ERBB3</italic>

M+ LACs [<xref rid="B17-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>

]. However, de novo <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ SCLC or mixed LAC-SCLC occasionally occurring in non-smokers independently of EGFR-TKI treatment and characterized by rapid progression have been reported too [<xref rid="B192-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">192</xref>

,<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
]. This raises the questions whether sometimes untreated disseminated <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LACs may already contain a population of TKI-resistant SCLC cells as potential mechanism of inherent resistance and whether EGFR-TKI treatment can further select and expand this population giving rise to a genetically similar SCLC with acquired TKI-resistance [<xref rid="B196-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">196</xref>
]. Alternatively, LAC cells could just be forced to change their phenotype by TKI-treatment as adaptive change occurring immediately (intrinsic resistance) or gradually (acquired resistance) [<xref rid="B196-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">196</xref>
]. Although it can be difficult in routine clinical practice to establish whether the LAC-to-SCLC transformation is pre-existing or induced by the TKI- treatment [<xref rid="B68-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">68</xref>
], there is accumulating evidence for a dynamic molecular and cellular plasticity between LAC and SCLC, including the concept of a mutual origin from pluripotent alveolar cells [<xref rid="B192-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">192</xref>
,<xref rid="B193-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">193</xref>
]. In recent years, the advances concerning the biology behind the SCLC-transformation of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LAC have been substantial, whereas our understanding of the clinical course associated with this phenotypic change has been more limited, as clinical data have been obtained from case reports or small case series.</p>
<p>However, recent publications shed new light on these issues. One of these reports presented the hitherto largest retrospective multicenter study of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ advanced lung cancers (<italic>n</italic>
= 67) that either had phenotypically undergone the LAC-to-SCLC transformation upon TKI-treatment (<italic>n</italic>
= 58) or were initially diagnosed as SCLC/mixed NSCLC-SCLC (<italic>n</italic>
= 9) and considered as bona fide transformed LACs within a common biologic continuum [<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
]. Despite being of retrospective character, lacking standardized treatment and response evaluation, as well as uniform pathological analysis and genotyping of the historical samples (the patients had been treated between 2006–2018), this North American cohort, given its size, led to valuable conclusions on certain biological aspects, appropriate treatments, and prognostic implications for <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LACs transforming to SCLC [<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
,<xref rid="B197-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">197</xref>
]. It also illustrated how clinically and genetically these transformed tumors represent a mixture of the features associated with <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LAC and conventional smoking-related SCLC. The baseline demographics of the SCLC-transformed cohort [<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
] resembled those of the general population of patients with <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LAC in terms of younger age, prevalent female gender, high representation of East-Asian ethnicity, and infrequent smoking habit of patients [<xref rid="B1-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>

,<xref rid="B90-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">90</xref>
], though the percent of women and of never-smokers were slightly lower (57% and 73%, respectively). Also, the baseline distribution of founder <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations was similar to that in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LAC in general [<xref rid="B1-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
], with strong prevalence of exon 19dels and L858R, which were detected in 69% and 25% of all patients, respectively while the remaining 6% harbored less common founder mutations, such as S768I, G719X or L861Q and two patients had an additional de novo T790M mutation. Importantly, all the SCLC-transformed cases did continue to harbor their original <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutation [<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
], as in previous reports of SCLC-transformation in TKI-treated LACs [<xref rid="B68-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">68</xref>
,<xref rid="B192-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">192</xref>

,<xref rid="B199-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">199</xref>
]. Some of these reports also indicated that following SCLC-transformation cancer cells became insensitive to EGFR-TKIs partly by downregulating the expression of EGFR protein and not by acquiring a secondary <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutation such as T790M [<xref rid="B68-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">68</xref>
,<xref rid="B192-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">192</xref>
,<xref rid="B193-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">193</xref>
]. In keeping with that, Marcoux et al. found that 15 of their 19 cases with previously detected T790M (two de novo and 17 acquired during TKI-treatment) had lost T790M after transformation to SCLC [<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
]. Collectively, these data are consistent with a separation of a T790M clone and a SCLC clone from a common founder LAC clone during the branching clonal evolution of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LAC described by Lee et al. [<xref rid="B200-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">200</xref>
]. They also suggest that the T790M clone may become dispensable for TKI-resistance after the phenotypic transition to SCLC [<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
,<xref rid="B197-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">197</xref>
,<xref rid="B200-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">200</xref>
], possibly because the EGFR protein downregulation represents a sort of “loss of TKI-target”.</p>
<p>Genotyping of Marcoux et al.’s cohort showed also significant incidence of <italic>TP53-</italic>
and <italic>RB1-</italic>
mutations in the LACs before undergoing SCLC-transformation and after having transformed as well as in the de novo <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ SCLC specimens [<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
]. Additionally, a significant number of transformed tumors with <italic>PIK3CA</italic>
-mutations was detected. This frequent occurrence of mutations in <italic>TP53, RB1</italic>
and <italic>PIK3CA</italic>
is also typical of classic smoking-related SCLC [<xref rid="B201-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">201</xref>
] and was reported in previous cases of LACs transforming to SCLC following TKI-therapy, though the inactivation of the p53- and Rb1-signaling pathways more rarely may take place via other genetic/epigenetic mechanisms [<xref rid="B68-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">68</xref>
,<xref rid="B192-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">192</xref>
,<xref rid="B193-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">193</xref>
]. In any case, according to the branching evolutionary path of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LAC transforming to SCLC described by Lee et al. [<xref rid="B200-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">200</xref>
], the TKI-resistant SCLC clones emerged earlier and at much higher frequency from a founder LAC with complete (homozygous) inactivation of the tumor suppressor genes <italic>RB1</italic>
and <italic>TP53</italic>
at baseline as compared to LACs with intact p53 and Rb1 function. Indeed, in the former cases the clonal branching of SCLC cells from LAC could be detected even before the TKI-start and the risk of SCLC-transformation was increased >40 times [<xref rid="B200-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">200</xref>
].</p>
<p>Taken together the above-mentioned results provide evidence for <italic>TP53</italic>
and <italic>RB1</italic>
inactivation as predisposing factor for SCLC-transformation of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LACs and suggest that evaluating the mutational status of <italic>TP53</italic>
and <italic>RB1</italic>
at baseline might aid in foreseeing which LACs are more prone to SCLC-transformation following EGFR-TKI therapy [<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
,<xref rid="B197-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">197</xref>
,<xref rid="B200-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">200</xref>
]. It remains to be clarified, though, how the presence of <italic>TP53-</italic>
and <italic>RB1-</italic>
mutations in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LACs correlates with the variable time to transformation observed by Marcoux et al. in their patients. Indeed, these authors found a time to transformation from the initial advanced LAC diagnosis ranging from 2 to 60 months (median = 17.8 months) and from TKI-start varying between 1.3 and 53.4 months (median = 15.8 months) [<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
]. The fact that in certain cases the time to transformation is of several months suggests that additional genetic/epigenetic changes may be required for the phenotypic change to be discernible [<xref rid="B198-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">198</xref>
,<xref rid="B202-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">202</xref>
]. Conversely, in other patients, tumor progression in association with the LAC-to-SCLC transformation is observed just a few weeks after initiating EGFR-TKIs [<xref rid="B68-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">68</xref>
,<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
] and SCLC clones are detectable before TKI-treatment in LACs with TP53 and RB1 inactivation, thereby justifying the inclusion of this phenotypic change among the possible mechanisms of intrinsic TKI-resistance. Nine percent of the transformed cases in the North American cohort also displayed <italic>EGFR</italic>
-amplification, in addition to the founder <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutation [<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
], implicating that not only EGFR-downregulation but also -upregulation may contribute to the loss of sensitivity to EGFR-TKIs in the SCLC-transformed cells. Although the mechanisms by which SCLC-transformation leads to TKI-resistance need to be addressed more specifically, it is also fair to speculate that the <italic>TP53-, RB1-,</italic>
and <italic>PIK3CA-</italic>
mutations identified in the transformed tumors may contribute to TKI-resistance, given that these genes regulate a multitude of mechanisms implicated in cell proliferation and survival downstream EGFR.</p>
<p>After transformation, the cohort of Marcoux et al. was treated with platinum-etoposide showing a RR of 54% and a median PFS of 3.4 months, and thereafter with taxanes with a remarkable RR of 50% and median PFS of 2.7 months [<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
]. This confirmed that adopting the platinum-etoposide protocol used as SOC treatment for conventional SCLC may also be a valid therapeutic choice after the LAC-to-SCLC transformation and that taxanes may represent an interesting alternative for this group of patients, also as late line of treatment. It remains to be clarified which cells are sensitive to and responsible for the significant RR of platinum-etoposide and taxanes in the transformed tumors (i.e., residual responsive LAC cells in transformed tumors or specific sensitivity of the SLC-transformed cells or both?). The SCLC-transformed tumors also exhibited high rate of CNS metastases and median OS since initial diagnosis of advanced lung cancer and after SCLC-transformation of 31.5 and 10.9 months, respectively, which together with the frequent but transient responses to platinum-etoposide are clinical features reminiscent of those in classic smoking-associated SCLC with wt <italic>EGFR</italic>
[<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
]. On the other hand, the short median PFS and OS after transformation indicate that more efficient therapeutic protocols are needed after diagnosing this phenotypic change in TKI-treated <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LACs. In this regard, the transformed tumors are not always completely insensitive to EGFR-TKIs, as 52% of patients in the North American cohort received TKI-therapy after transformation, mostly in combination with or after cytotoxic chemotherapy, and a few cases showed clinical benefit from this treatment [<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
]. As in previous reports, this was ascribed to the reemergence of LAC clones in progressing sites after SCLC development [<xref rid="B68-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">68</xref>
,<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
]. In contrast, treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors yielded no clinical response, resembling the lack of efficacy of immunotherapy in the general population of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LAC [<xref rid="B203-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">203</xref>
,<xref rid="B204-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">204</xref>
]. Notably, a literature review of 39 TKI-treated SLC-transformed LACs (37 <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ cases, 2 <italic>ALK</italic>
-positive cases) [<xref rid="B198-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">198</xref>
] and a retrospective European cohort of 48 SCLC-transformed <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LACs [<xref rid="B199-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">199</xref>
] displayed time to transformation, RR to platinum-etoposide, and OS since LAC diagnosis or after transformation comparable to those in the study by Marcoux et al. [<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
,<xref rid="B198-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">198</xref>
,<xref rid="B199-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">199</xref>
], thereby validating the conclusions in terms of clinical behavior of these tumors.</p>
<p>The above-described studies also underline the relevance of tumor re-biopsies at progression for the histological identification of phenotypic changes such as SCLC-transformation that, as yet, are not detectable in liquid biopsies. Finally, they imply that TKIs may function as factors promoting the SCLC-transformation, especially in NSCLCs with inactivated <italic>TP53</italic>
and <italic>RB1</italic>
, despite not being essential for the phenotypic transition. In connection with that, the role of <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations in SCLC-transformation also needs to be elucidated, considering that these mutations are early clonal events involved in the initiation of EGFR-driven LAC [<xref rid="B7-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>
,<xref rid="B11-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
]. In this regard, SCLC-transformation has occasionally been reported in <italic>EGFR</italic>
-wt LAC and in LACs driven by <italic>ALK-</italic>
rearrangement rather than mutated <italic>EGFR</italic>
[<xref rid="B198-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">198</xref>
,<xref rid="B199-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">199</xref>
], suggesting that <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations may predispose rather than induce the transformation. Accordingly, some evidence for SCLC-transformation occurring more rapidly in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ than in <italic>EGFR</italic>
-wt LACs has been provided, though after transformation survival and response to platinum-etoposide appear similar in the two groups and resemble those in conventional SCLC [<xref rid="B199-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">199</xref>
]. Finally, future multigene analyses will hopefully uncover whether specific genetic signatures of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LACs are associated with SCLC-transformation, so that this event can be better predicted and possibly therapeutically counteracted [<xref rid="B197-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">197</xref>
]. Most of the reported cases of SCLC-transformation in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LAC were treated with TKIs of early generation, while only single patients received osimertinib as first-line [<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
,<xref rid="B198-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">198</xref>
,<xref rid="B199-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">199</xref>
]. In addition, recent investigations indicate that in addition to tertiary EGFR-mutations and loss of T790M (“loss of target”), resistance to second-line osimertinib is related to several EGFR-independent mechanisms [<xref rid="B205-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">205</xref>
]. Thus, it will be interesting to prospectively analyze how the employment of first-line therapy with osimertinib will impact on the occurrence of SCLC-transformation or other phenotypic changes in patients with <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC, since in this group of patients TKI-resistance due to T790M mutation will lose significance.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="sec2dot3dot2-cancers-11-00923"><title>2.3.2. EMT, BIM Expression, Hypoxia</title>
<p>EMT was initially reported in connection with cases of acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs of 1G or 2G (<2%) and is now being observed at an increased frequency after the implementation of osimertinib [<xref rid="B29-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>
]. EMT is characterized by loss of epithelial markers (e.g., the cell-adhesion protein E-cadherin) and acquisition of mesenchymal features, such as spindle-shaped vimentin-positive cells with increased motility, invasiveness, and TKI-resistance. As for the SCLC-transformation, the possibility of NSCLCs containing sarcomatoid spindle cells that have undergone EMT and are intrinsically resistant to EGFR-TKIs prior to treatment cannot be omitted. Alternatively, EMT might be induced very rapidly in some tumor cells after initiation of TKI-treatment as a form of adaptive response to the inhibition of EGFR signaling [<xref rid="B206-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">206</xref>
]. Supporting both concepts, anecdotal cases of EMT occurring within weeks of TKI treatment have been reported [<xref rid="B206-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">206</xref>
]. Indeed, the transcription factors (TFs) Twist, Snail, Slug and ZEB1, which regulate a plethora of genes associated with a mesenchymal cellular phenotype, can be found upregulated in NSCLC cells before therapy or are rapidly induced by EGFR-TKIs as part of the adaptive cellular reprogramming. In either case, they may induce EMT in NSCLC and lead to resistance to EGFR-TKIs of all three generations [<xref rid="B29-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>
,<xref rid="B206-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">206</xref>
]. Experiments in NSCLC cell lines showed that counteracting EMT can re-establish sensitivity to EGFR-TKIs [<xref rid="B207-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">207</xref>
]. However, how EMT causes TKI-resistance remains uncertain. A key event in EMT appears to be the downregulation of the EGFR-interacting adhesion-protein E-cadherin, which is at least in part mediated by epigenetic mechanisms. Indeed, overexpression of the EMT-related zinc-finger transcriptional repressor ZEB1 in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC cell lines inhibits the expression of E-cadherin by recruiting histone deacetylases (HDACs), and this renders these cells insensitive to EGFR-TKIs [<xref rid="B207-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">207</xref>
]. Moreover, gene promoter methylation is also involved in E-cadherin downregulation when NSCLC undergoes EMT [<xref rid="B208-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">208</xref>
]. Additionally, cases of <italic>ALK</italic>
-rearranged NSCLC resistant to the 2G ALK-TKI ceritinib displaying features such as spindled cell shape, loss of E-cadherin immunostaining, and Vimentin overexpression, consistent with EMT, have been documented [<xref rid="B209-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">209</xref>
]. Similarly, mutations in genes regulating EMT and E-cadherin expression levels have been reported in crizotinib-resistant <italic>ALK</italic>
-positive NSCLCs [<xref rid="B210-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">210</xref>
]. Thus, a loss of E-cadherin expression in NSCLC appears to be predictive of poor responsiveness to EGFR- and ALK-TKIs and is characteristic of EMT induction in NSCLCs that become resistant to these drugs.</p>
<p>It has also been shown that the above mentioned, EMT-related TFs can inhibit the transcription of the <italic>BCL2L11</italic>
gene. The latter encodes BCL2-like 11 (BIM), a BH3 domain-containing, pro-apoptotic member of the Bcl-2 protein family that is destabilized and downregulated by EGFR-dependent signaling in cancer cells that are EGFR-addicted for survival. Consequently, BIM is stabilized by EGFR-TKIs and thereby contributes in a major way to TKI-induced apoptosis in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC cells [<xref rid="B211-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">211</xref>
,<xref rid="B212-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">212</xref>

,<xref rid="B214-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">214</xref>
]. Thus, EMT may induce a TKI-resistant status at least in part via transcriptional suppression of BIM-mediated apoptosis. An additional player contributing to the induction of EMT and EGFR-TKI resistance in NSCLC cells is the teratocarcinoma-derived growth factor 1 (TDGF1)/CRIPTO1, an oncofetal, membrane-associated protein of the EGF-CFC family. <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLCs intrinsically resistant to EGFR-TKIs were reported to have upregulated expression of CRIPTO1. Moreover, ectopic expression of CRIPTO1 in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC cell lines upregulated ZEB1 and activated the SRC pathway via microRNA-205 (miR-205) downregulation, thereby promoting EMT and erlotinib-resistance of these cells [<xref rid="B215-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">215</xref>
]. Conversely, CRIPTO1-overexpressing primary <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC cells that were intrinsically erlotinib-resistant became TKI-sensitive upon silencing of CRIPTO1 expression [<xref rid="B215-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">215</xref>
]. Intriguingly, miR-205 and the microRNA-200 family are known to repress the expression of ZEB1/ZEB2 and SRC, and in this way can prevent EMT and drug resistance [<xref rid="B216-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">216</xref>
,<xref rid="B217-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">217</xref>
]. Consequently, ectopic miR-205 overexpression suppressed CRIPTO1-dependent ZEB1 and SRC activation, restoring erlotinib sensitivity in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC cell lines [<xref rid="B215-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">215</xref>
]. Also, pharmacologically co-targeting EGFR and SRC synergistically reduced the growth of CRIPTO1-positive, erlotinib-resistant, <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC cells, suggesting that this combination might be able to counteract intrinsic resistance to EGFR-TKIs in patients with CRIPTO1-positive, <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC undergoing EMT [<xref rid="B215-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">215</xref>
].</p>
<p>Interestingly, an intronic deletion polymorphism of the <italic>BCL2L11</italic>
gene that results in alternative BIM mRNA splicing and elimination of the pro-apoptotic BH3-domain occurs naturally in a significant fraction of East Asian individuals, with frequency reportedly ranging between 12% and 21% [<xref rid="B218-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">218</xref>
,<xref rid="B219-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">219</xref>
]. Consequently, this polymorphism impairs the generation of the proapoptotic isoform of BIM required for EGFR-TKI-induced apoptosis and confers an intrinsically TKI-resistant phenotype that can partly explain the heterogeneity of TKI responses across individuals [<xref rid="B220-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">220</xref>
]. Indeed, Asian patients with <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC, who harbored this host BIM deletion polymorphism, exhibited significantly inferior responses to treatment with TKIs of all three generations and much shorter PFS than individuals lacking the polymorphism, suggesting that the BIM polymorphism is a negative predictive marker of response to EGFR-TKIs [<xref rid="B218-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">218</xref>

]. Recently, <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC patients with low expression level of the transcriptional BIM-inducer Human antigen R (HuR) were reported to display reduced BIM expression, intrinsic resistance to EGFR-TKIs, and significantly shortened PFS, while ectopic overexpression of HuR was able to enhance sensitivity to gefitinib in NSCLC cells in vitro and in vivo [<xref rid="B226-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">226</xref>

M+ NSCLC treated with EGFR-TKIs and induce acquired resistance to these drugs [<xref rid="B227-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">227</xref>
]. MerTK functions as by-pass track and activates MAPK- and FAK-signaling, thereby converging downstream EGFR, while AXL-signaling has been associated with acquired resistance through the induction of EMT [<xref rid="B227-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">227</xref>
,<xref rid="B228-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">228</xref>
]. Some evidence for pre-existing, drug-tolerant cell clones overexpressing AXL at baseline has been recently presented in single cases of <italic>ALK</italic>
-rearranged NSCLC not responding to crizotinib [<xref rid="B229-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">229</xref>
]. Thus, it would be relevant to investigate in biopsies obtained before treatment and early during response to therapy whether populations of AXL-overexpressing cells exist in NSCLC at baseline, as a source of rapid EMT development and primary TKI-resistance shortly after therapy initiation. This approach would also allow clinical validation of the alternative possibility emerged from studies in TKI-treated NSCLC cell lines that AXL and EMT are promptly induced as part of the rapid reprogramming these cells go through after TKI-initiation. It is postulated that this adaptive response results in de-repression of certain alternative RTK-mediated by-pass pathways that ultimately allow some cells to survive the treatment, proliferate, and even switch to a more mesenchymal, less EGFR-dependent phenotype, thereby persisting as a form of “residual disease” [<xref rid="B206-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">206</xref>
].</p>
<p>Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) have been implicated in the induction, through paracrine mechanisms, of EMT and TKI-resistance in NSCLC. For instance, by culturing <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC cell lines with CAFs isolated from NSCLC tissues, Yi et al. were able to promote EMT and EGFR-TKI resistance of the cancer cells. This was at least in part due to the secretion of HGF and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) by the CAFs that activated signaling pathways in the NSCLC cells leading to EMT and TKI-resistance [<xref rid="B230-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">230</xref>
].</p>
<p>An additional factor related to the cancer microenvironment that can induce resistance to EGFR-TKIs is hypoxia, which is present to a variable extent in metabolically active solid tumors such as NSCLC. Acute hypoxia due to repetitive transient vessel occlusion by the growing tumor mass and chronic hypoxia caused by limited diffusion of nutrients and oxygen in tumor cells distant from vessels dynamically coexist in cancers. While a persistent hypoxic state can gradually reduce the efficacy of TKIs and result in acquired resistance to these drugs, a rapidly induced hypoxic microenvironment may also contribute to intrinsic TKI-resistance. Through activation of the hypoxia-inducible transcription factors HIF-1α and HIF-2α, hypoxia regulates a plethora of downstream genes and promotes genomic instability, tumor tissue acidosis, angiogenesis, invasiveness, and tumor progression associated with increased metastatic behavior, which ultimately result in poor prognosis and resistance to apoptosis-mediated cancer therapies such as radio-chemotherapy, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy [<xref rid="B231-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">231</xref>
]. Uncontrolled EGFR-signaling is associated to hypoxia, while preclinical and clinical investigations have shown that EGFR-TKIs can increase the hematic flow through the tumor tissue and reduce hypoxia [<xref rid="B231-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">231</xref>
,<xref rid="B232-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">232</xref>
]. On the other hand, hypoxia renders <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC cell lines TKI-resistant through activation of insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R), a known negative prognostic marker in advanced NSCLC [<xref rid="B233-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">233</xref>
,<xref rid="B234-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">234</xref>
]. In turn the aberrant IGF1R-signaling favors the generation of primitive cancer stem cells and EMT, whereas IGF1R-inhibitors can revert these phenomena, thus, targeting IGF1R may have the potential to prevent hypoxia-induced cancer progression, EMT and ultimately TKI-resistance [<xref rid="B234-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">234</xref>

<sec id="sec2dot3dot3-cancers-11-00923"><title>2.3.3. Conversion to SqCC</title>
<p>In addition to transformation to SCLC and EMT, there is mounting evidence for the association of TKI-resistance with another phenotypic change, namely the transition of an <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LAC to a SqCC during TKI-treatment. According to the 2015 WHO classification of lung tumors, adenosquamous carcinomas (defined as carcinomas where the adenomatous and squamous components represent each at least 10% of the whole tumor tissue) account for no more than 4% of all lung cancers [<xref rid="B237-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">237</xref>
]. However more recent studies showed that up to 10% of NSCLCs may contain mixed adenomatous and squamous areas in the same primary tumor. Regardless of their size and prevalence, these components frequently share identical oncogenic alterations in cancer-drivers such as mutations in <italic>EGFR, KRAS, AKT1, ERBB2,</italic>
and <italic>PI3KCA</italic>
genes or fusions of <italic>ALK</italic>

,<xref rid="B238-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">238</xref>
]. Indeed, the trans-differentiation from LAC to SqCC has been described both in humans and in mouse models, often when tumor cells are characterized by inactivation of the tumor suppressor gene <italic>LKB1/STK11</italic>

,<xref rid="B240-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">240</xref>

,<xref rid="B238-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">238</xref>
]. However, as for SCLC-transformation and EMT, it is debated whether the conversion from LAC to SqCC is a clonal selection or an adaptive histological change resulting in phenotype-switch [<xref rid="B240-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">240</xref>
]. Thus, it cannot be excluded that a certain amount of tumor cells with SqCC phenotype might already be present before the initiation of TKI-treatment and immediately act as mechanism of poor therapeutic response.</p>
<p>A recent pooled analysis of published case reports or small case series of SqCC-transition in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LACs included 16 patients treated with 1G or 2G TKIs as first/second/third-line therapy and 1 receiving osimertinib as second-line [<xref rid="B240-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">240</xref>

-mutations [<xref rid="B240-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">240</xref>
]. This substantiates the concept that the new SqCC phenotype observed at disease progression originates from a founder LAC [<xref rid="B240-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">240</xref>
], considering that <5% of pulmonary SqCCs display activating <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations [<xref rid="B8-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
]. Given that diagnostic biopsies are small and taken from single sites, it cannot be excluded though, that some of the cases described as SqCC-conversion of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LACs, in fact were at baseline <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ adenosquamous carcinomas, which are known to harbor <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations in both components [<xref rid="B241-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">241</xref>
] and could have progressed through further clonal selection of the SqCC-population [<xref rid="B240-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">240</xref>
]. The available genotyping data from the 11 samples tested after the onset of the SqCC phenotype revealed the emergence of the TKI-resistant mutant T790M in eight cases, PIK3CA-mutation in two cases, and the occurrence of S768I in one case [<xref rid="B240-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">240</xref>
]. The high frequency of T790M in the SqCC-converted specimens contrasts with the low incidence of newly acquired T790M and tendency to lose pre-existing T790M observed in the <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LACs undergoing SCLC-transformation (see <xref ref-type="sec" rid="sec2dot3dot1-cancers-11-00923">Section 2.3.1</xref>

,<xref rid="B198-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">198</xref>
]. The appearance of T790M in a considerable number of SqCC-converted LACs following TKI-therapy also raises the question whether this mutation is the main mechanism of TKI-resistance in these tumors, rather than other molecular events associated with the squamous phenotype. More molecular profiling of SqCC-converted LACs at baseline and after conversion is needed to define molecular signatures that could predispose to this phenotypic change and/or render it resistant to TKI-treatment.</p>
<p>In terms of clinical outcomes, the pooled literature analysis of Roca et al. [<xref rid="B240-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">240</xref>
] displayed a median duration of TKI-treatment prior to SqCC-conversion of 11.5 months (range 4–69 months), thus shorter than the median time from TKI-start to SCLC-transformation reported by Marcoux et al. (15.4 months) [<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
] and Roca et al. (18 months) [<xref rid="B240-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">240</xref>
]. The median OS after diagnosis of NSCLC was of 20 months in the cases experiencing SqCC-conversion, which is shorter than the OS observable in the general population of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LAC not undergoing phenotypic changes. It is also shorter than the above-mentioned OS of 31.5 months from diagnosis observed in the <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LACs undergoing SCLC-transformation [<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
]. The treatment after the SqCC-transition was described for only 12 patients in the pooled analysis of cases [<xref rid="B240-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">240</xref>
] and included chemotherapy (24%), TKI (41%), or a combined protocol (6%). The clinical benefit was quite modest: two patients did not benefit from any therapy and died shortly after very rapid PD, while only four patients exhibited a PR after administration of a 3G EGFR-TKI. After SqCC-conversion the median OS was therefore of only 3.5 months, i.e., significantly worse than that after SCLC-transformation, reportedly ranging between 6 and 10.9 months [<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
,<xref rid="B198-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">198</xref>
,<xref rid="B199-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">199</xref>
]. These discrepancies between SqCC-conversion and SCLC-transformation after treatment with EGFR-TKIs suggest that the former phenotypic event may be associated with worse prognosis, however larger series need to be investigated and corrected for potential biases, such as the smoking habit, before reaching firmer conclusions. Indeed, the cohort of SqCC-converted LACs comprised more smokers than the reported cohorts of LACs transforming to SCLC [<xref rid="B195-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">195</xref>
,<xref rid="B198-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">198</xref>
,<xref rid="B240-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">240</xref>
], which could be a bias or a factor contributing to the transition to the SqCC phenotype.</p>
<p>As for the SCLC-transformation and EMT, there is still a lack of markers capable of revealing the phenotypic change from LAC to SqCC in plasma samples during treatment with TKIs [<xref rid="B7-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>
,<xref rid="B242-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">242</xref>
]. Therefore, the recognition of SqCC-conversion, as for the other phenotypic changes, relies on histological and immunohistochemical investigations performed on biopsies from recurrent/progressing sites. However, these can be challenging for pathologists. For instance, given the small sizes of these biopsies and the prominent morphological intra- and inter-lesion heterogeneity of advanced NSCLC, these phenotypic changes may not necessarily be represented in the examined tissue samples and therefore can be missed in certain patients that are resistant to EGFR-TKIs. Additionally, because of clonal heterogeneity, both genetic and phenotypic changes associated with TKI-resistance in advanced NSCLC might be present only in some, but not all the progressing lesions [<xref rid="B7-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>

]. Although this issue can be addressed by taking biopsies from more than one site, the invasiveness and side effects related to this approach renders the expected future possibilities of detecting biomarkers for phenotypic changes in liquid biopsies or by molecular imaging particularly attractive [<xref rid="B243-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">243</xref>

<sec id="sec2dot4-cancers-11-00923"><title>2.4. Autophagy, Drug Efflux or Sequestration</title>
<p>Although it has only been studied in preclinical models based on cell lines and tumor xenografts in mice, autophagy activation is potentially considerable among the mechanisms of resistance to TKIs, and combined therapy with TKIs and autophagy inhibitors appears as a promising approach to augment the possibility of eliminating RTK-dependent tumor cells [<xref rid="B246-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">246</xref>
,<xref rid="B247-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">247</xref>
,<xref rid="B248-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">248</xref>
]. One of the effects of TKIs is to reduce the activity of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway and conceivably this may result in rapid autophagy induction, given that among other functions, this signaling pathway normally blocks autophagy initiation. Once derepressed by TKIs, autophagy proceeds to formation of autophagolysosomes, which can degrade their content and release primary cellular components in the cytosol for recycling and reuse. In stressful situations this process functions to let the cells recover in standby until cellular homeostasis is re-established. In this respect, it has been shown that cell lines representing different EGFR-addicted cancer types, including NSCLC, may under therapeutic stress by TKIs use autophagy to eliminate the drugs and survive the treatment, while inhibitors of autophagy may augment the growth inhibitory effect of EGFR-TKIs [<xref rid="B246-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">246</xref>
,<xref rid="B247-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">247</xref>

,<xref rid="B249-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">249</xref>
]. Although not necessarily active in cancer cells before treatment, the rapid induction of autophagy by TKIs can operate as prompt negative feedback-mechanism reducing drug efficacy and leading to rapidly acquired resistance. However, in cancer cells with pre-existing autophagic activity the further boost of autophagy by TKIs could result in immediate lack of therapeutic response, thereby representing a form of primary TKI-resistance.</p>
<p>Thus, blocking autophagy might represent a future strategy to overcome intrinsic/acquired resistance and increase sensitivity to EGFR-TKIs in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ LAC. Still, much more work is needed to elucidate the potential role of autophagy in TKI-resistance and the possibility of enhancing the efficacy of TKIs of all generations. Somewhat conflicting data were recently published on this issue. One report suggested that one of the mechanisms by which osimertinib inhibits the growth of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC cells in vitro and in mouse xenografts was by triggering autophagy-mediated cell death [<xref rid="B250-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">250</xref>
]. Another just released report did confirm that osimertinib, like the EGFR-TKIs of 1G and 2G [<xref rid="B246-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">246</xref>

,<xref rid="B249-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">249</xref>
], increases the autophagic activity of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC cells in vitro and in xenograft mice, however, it concluded that this resulted in the development of osimertinib-resistant cells exhibiting stem cell-like properties [<xref rid="B251-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">251</xref>
]. Thus, as previous results have suggested, autophagy may be a double-edge sword capable of either promoting or restraining the survival of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC cells in hypoxic situations and the EGFR signaling may be a key modulator of the switch between cancer cell survival and death in these conditions [<xref rid="B252-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">252</xref>
,<xref rid="B253-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">253</xref>
]. Thus, even if autophagy may potentially participate to the elimination of cancer cells, hypoxic NSCLC regions may also contribute to tumor progression due to the ability of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC cells to adapt to the adverse conditions, at least in part, through autophagy [<xref rid="B252-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">252</xref>
,<xref rid="B253-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">253</xref>
]. Summing up these results, it is fair to conclude that more work is warranted to elucidate whether and how autophagy may contribute to acquired and intrinsic TKI-resistance in the clinical setting.</p>
<p>Resistance to EGFR-TKIs may also be due to increased drug-efflux mediated by ATP-binding cassette transporters residing in the cell membrane of NSCLC cells that can pump these drugs out into the extracellular environment [<xref rid="B254-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">254</xref>
]. Alternatively, TKIs may be sequestered in lysosomes, protonated, and subsequently removed from cancer cells by exocytosis or via the efflux transporters, thereby precluding the interaction of TKIs with EGFR [<xref rid="B254-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">254</xref>
]. Initial observations indicated that being the EGFR-TKIs substrates of ATP-binding cassette transporters, such as P-glycoprotein (Pgp), they could be utilized as a synergistic strategy for antagonizing Pgp-mediated resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs in NSCLC cells not harboring sensitizing <italic>EGFR</italic>

]. Yet, the induction of specific drug efflux transporter proteins, including Pgp, that may occur in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLCs treated with EGFR-TKIs is a mechanism that reduces the intracellular TKI concentration and contributes to acquired resistance to these drugs [<xref rid="B254-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">254</xref>
]. It remains to be established to which extent multidrug-resistance transporter proteins and lysosomal trapping may operate as mechanisms of intrinsic TKI-resistance in NSCLC cells.</p>

<sec id="sec2dot5-cancers-11-00923"><title>2.5. MicroRNAs and Long Non-Coding RNAs</title>
<p>The role of non-coding RNAs, such as microRNAs (miRs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in acquired and intrinsic resistance to EGFR-TKIs is a vast subject of intense preclinical investigation, which is beyond the scope of this review. The results have hitherto been achieved primarily using cell lines and their clinical impact remains to be clarified. Here is worth just mentioning that a multitude of miRs and lncRNAs, as in other cancer types, appear down-regulated in NSCLC, including several EGFR-targeting miRs (miR-7, miR-27a-3p, miR-30, miR-34, miR-128, miR-133, miR-134, miR-145, miR-146, miR-149, miR-218, and miR-542-5p) [<xref rid="B257-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">257</xref>
] and lcnRNAs [<xref rid="B258-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">258</xref>
,<xref rid="B259-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">259</xref>
]. Reestablishing the expression of miRs using miRNA-mimics delivered via viral and non-viral (locked nucleic acids or liposomal nanoparticles) systems into the tumor tissue of NSCLC patients might provide an additional tool for suppressing tumor growth and improve the efficacy of EGFR-TKIS. However, safety and efficiency concerns related to the potential immunogenicity, mutagenicity, and toxicity induced by viral vectors or the low miR-delivery rate and off-target effects of non-viral vectors are still limiting the clinical application of these strategies [<xref rid="B257-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">257</xref>
].</p>
<p>Among miRs that instead are upregulated in NSCLC, miR-21 is particularly interesting, as it is frequently overexpressed in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC cell lines, in which it contributes to TKI-resistance by downregulating Phosphatase and TEnsin homolog (PTEN) and Programmed Cell Death protein 4 (PDCD4) expression and thereby activating the PI3K-AKT pathway [<xref rid="B260-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">260</xref>
,<xref rid="B261-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">261</xref>
]. Moreover, inhibiting miR-21 expression promotes apoptosis in these cells and suppresses tumor growth in nude mice treated with EGFR-TKIs. Consistent with that, miR-21 overexpression was detected in the tumor tissue of NSCLC patients that became resistant to EGFR-TKIs and correlated with poor response and shorter OS after this therapy. By the same token, miR-21 expression in the plasma of EGFR-TKI-treated NSCLC patients was higher at the time of acquiring resistance than at baseline [<xref rid="B260-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">260</xref>
,<xref rid="B261-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">261</xref>
]. Furthermore, large-scale miR-profiling of serum samples from NSCLC patients treated with EGFR-TKIs showed that among 153 differentially expressed microRNAs, miR-21, AmiR-27a, and miR-218 were significantly upregulated in patients showing no response to these drugs as compared to sensitive patients, suggesting that these three microRNAs may also be implicated in intrinsic resistance to EGFR-TKIs [<xref rid="B262-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">262</xref>
]. Finally, as mentioned in <xref ref-type="sec" rid="sec2dot2dot3-cancers-11-00923">Section 2.2.3</xref>
, preclinical models have shown that aberrant MET signaling due to MET-amplification renders <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC cells TKI-resistant by promoting their proliferation and survival via reactivation of the MAPK and PI3K-AKT pathways that are inhibited by EGFR-TKIs [<xref rid="B138-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">138</xref>
]. This in part caused by MET upregulating the expression of miR-21, miR-30b/c, and miR-221/222, which in turn represses the tumor suppressor PTEN and the proapoptotic effectors BIM and APAF-1 [<xref rid="B138-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">138</xref>
]. MET also downregulates miR-103 and miR-203, which are negative regulators of EMT, thereby contributing to EMT-mediated TKI-resistance [<xref rid="B138-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">138</xref>
].</p>
<p>The mechanisms by which altered expression of lncRNAs affect the expression of gene products that may contribute to drug resistance, including TKI-resistance, remains poorly known [<xref rid="B263-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">263</xref>
]. Certain lcnRNAs that are overexpressed in NSCLC, such as MIR31HG and UCA1, are capable of interfering with the response to EGFR-TKIs by activating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway [<xref rid="B263-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">263</xref>
,<xref rid="B264-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">264</xref>
]. Moreover, UCA1 and other overexpressed lncRNAs, such as MALAT1/NEAT2 and BC087858, appear to be involved in EGFR-TKI resistance by modulating the EMT [<xref rid="B263-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">263</xref>
]. Downregulation of lcnRNAs targeting the EGFR- and IGF1R-signalling, such as GAS5, has also been implicated in TKI-resistance [<xref rid="B258-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">258</xref>
]. Future studies need to further clarify how and when lcnRNAs are involved in primary and secondary resistance to EGFR-TKIs in NSCLC patients.</p>

<p>The literature on inherent resistance to 3G EGFR-TKIs primarily concerns osimertinib and is limited, given that this drug is approved as second line for T790M-positive, <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutant NSCLC patients, who have progressed on 1G/2G EGFR-TKIs. Once osimertinib becomes the new SOC for first-line therapy with EGFR-TKI, as recent data strongly advocate for [<xref rid="B24-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>
,<xref rid="B25-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>
], it will be easier to reveal and understand the potential causal mechanisms of intrinsic resistance to this drug. As mentioned above, several altered signaling pathways leading to acquired resistance to osimertinib have been discovered and 5% to 15% of T790M-positive patients have reportedly shown inherent resistance to this drug [<xref rid="B25-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>

,<xref rid="B37-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">37</xref>
]. In addition, the rate of CR in responders to second line osimertinib is low. This is often due to remaining lesions that are a source of new progression in most patients and that may be T790M-negative and/or possess other mechanisms of TKI-resistance [<xref rid="B24-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>

]. The acquisition of tertiary mutations within the <italic>EGFR</italic>

-amplification and the above-described EGFR-independent resistance mechanisms are shared by EGFR-TKIs of all three generations. This also means that if an <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC becomes resistant to a first-line TKI of 1G/2G through one or several of these shared mechanisms, it will be intrinsically resistant to osimertinib. Accordingly, there are reports of cases not responding to osimertinib or rociletinib, which showed <italic>EGFR-, ERBB2-</italic>

amplification, or SCLC transformation in samples obtained before or after very few weeks of treatment [<xref rid="B29-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>

-mutations concomitant with the loss of the T790M mutation and preservation of the original activating <italic>EGFR</italic>

,<xref rid="B37-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">37</xref>
].</p>
<p>Additionally, Blakely et al. [<xref rid="B12-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
] analyzed the mutational profile of cfDNA isolated before osimertinib-treatment from a group of 20 <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC patients responding to subsequent administration of osimertinib and from 21 non-responders. They detected co-alterations in <italic>MET</italic>

(5/21), <italic>CDK4/6</italic>
(3/21), <italic>CCNE</italic>
(3/21), <italic>PIK3CA</italic>
(6/21) and <italic>APC</italic>
(5/21) only in the non-responders and found that alterations in cell cycle genes such as <italic>CDK4/6</italic>
or genes of the MAPK-/PI3K-/WNT-pathways were associated with lack of response to osimertinib and shorter PFS. These results emphasize that genetic co-alterations of these pathways may play an important role in intrinsic resistance to osimertinib treatment and could be employed as negative predictors of response to this drug [<xref rid="B12-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
]. Finally, recent data point to the up-regulation of AXL as alternative mechanism of intrinsic resistance to osimertinib. Gene expression analysis in two cohorts of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC patients treated with gefitinib or osimertinib showed frequent concomitant overexpression of AXL and CUB domain-containing protein-1 (CDCP1) in cases with poor response to these drugs [<xref rid="B265-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">265</xref>
]. Another study in NSCLC patients treated with 1G/2G TKIs or osimertinib found an association between high AXL expression and low RR as well as early tumor progression [<xref rid="B266-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">266</xref>
]. This study also showed that treating cultured <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC cells with osimertinib resulted in AXL upregulation as well as interaction with EGFR and ERBB3, which in turn contributed to maintaining cell survival and to the emergence of osimertinib-tolerant cells. Cell-based assays showed that adding AXL inhibitors in tumor cell- or patient-derived xenograft models synergized with osimertinib by reducing the viability of osimertinib-treated NSCLC cells. This hindered the emergence of osimertinib-tolerant cells, thereby delaying tumor recurrence in the subcutaneously grafted mice [<xref rid="B266-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">266</xref>
]. These results suggest that the AXL signaling plays an important role in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC cells regarding both the initial adaptive response and intrinsic resistance to osimertinib as well as the development of long-term drug-tolerance. Thus, AXL overexpression might be used as a novel biomarker for the initial tolerance and intrinsic resistance of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLCs to EGFR-TKIs, but this possibility necessitates further validation in larger studies.</p>
<p>An additional consideration from the above-mentioned results is that when the occurrence of T790M in patients progressing on early generation EGFR-TKIs is determined only by mutation analysis of plasma cfDNA before allocation to osimertinib treatment, one may risk missing a possible concomitant transformation to SCLC or SqCC, as well as cases with EMT or AXL overexpression, thereby neglecting these causes of primary resistance to osimertinib [<xref rid="B72-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">72</xref>
,<xref rid="B242-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">242</xref>
]. Finally, among the so-far-identified causes of primary osimertinib-resistance, a recently reported case with de novo occurrence of the rare <italic>EGFR</italic>
L747P mutation in exon 19, should be mentioned (see <xref ref-type="sec" rid="sec2dot1-cancers-11-00923">Section 2.1</xref>
). This mutation conferred lack of response and intrinsic resistance to both gefitinib and osimertinib [<xref rid="B99-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">99</xref>
]. Further cases not responding to and rapidly progressing on first-/second-line osimertinib need to be molecularly investigated for properly understanding and validating the mechanisms of primary resistance to this drug.</p>
<p>Notably, regardless of the resistance-mechanism involved, most osimertinib-resistant cases maintain the original activating <italic>EGFR-</italic>
mutation even if they lose T790M, suggesting that EGFR continues to be an essential driver in the resistant cells and justifying the implementation of combinatorial therapeutic strategies aimed at re-sensitizing them to osimertinib [<xref rid="B29-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>
,<xref rid="B32-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">32</xref>
,<xref rid="B33-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">33</xref>
,<xref rid="B35-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">35</xref>
,<xref rid="B36-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">36</xref>
]. In this respect, there is emerging indication that both the presence and the relative concentration of T790M may impact the initial response to osimertinib and possibly other 3G TKIs. Indeed, in the phase I/II AURA trial for patients with advanced NSCLC progressing during treatment with 1G/2G EGFR-TKIs, the median PFS on osimertinib was 9.6 and 2.8 months in T790M-positive and -negative cases, respectively [<xref rid="B93-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">93</xref>
]. An analogous phase I/II study in which patients progressing on 1G/2G TKIs received the other 3G TKI rociletinib showed an objective RR of 59% for the evaluable T790M-positive cases and 29% for the T790M-negative ones [<xref rid="B267-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">267</xref>
], confirming that the presence of T790M predicts better response to 3G EGFR-TKIs. Moreover, NSCLC patients with a high T790M/activating <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutation ratio in tumor samples or in plasma cfDNA have displayed a significantly better RR to second-line osimertinib and a longer PFS than patients with a low ratio [<xref rid="B268-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">268</xref>
,<xref rid="B269-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">269</xref>
]. Comparably, in a retrospective study Li et al. recently observed that quantitative measurements of T790M mutant copy number in plasma cfDNA by digital droplet PCR (ddPCR) may predict treatment response and outcome after osimertinib in NSCLC patients resistant to 1G/2G TKIs [<xref rid="B270-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">270</xref>
]. In this cohort, patients exhibiting PR or SD to second-line osimertinib had higher T790M mutant copy number in cfDNA than those with PD. In addition, a high T790M copy number (≥105 copies/mL of plasma) was associated with longer PFS and OS [<xref rid="B270-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">270</xref>
]. However, in another <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ cohort receiving second-line osimertinib after identifying T790M in cfDNA, patients with a high T790M copy number (≥10 copies/mL) showed a (non-significant) trend of shorter PFS and OS compared to those with a low T790M copy number (<10 copies/mL) [<xref rid="B271-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">271</xref>
]. Thus, additional studies are needed to clarify the predictive value of different quantitative measurements of T790M abundance for osimertinib-treatment in NSCLC. In particular, the predictive suitability and the best cut-off values of the T790M/activating <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutation ratio, T790M relative AF, and T790M concentration in different types of specimens ought to be further validated, compared, and optimized before clinical implementation not least because these parameters may also be influenced by different biological aspects (for example amplification of T790M-positive <italic>EGFR</italic>
) [<xref rid="B61-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">61</xref>
].</p>
<p>It has also been observed that when C797S develops in NSCLCs that do not carry T790M and are treated with osimertinib in the first-line setting, these tumors become resistant to 3G TKIs but may remain responsive to 1G TKIs [<xref rid="B272-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">272</xref>
,<xref rid="B273-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">273</xref>
]. Combination therapy with osimertinib and a 1G EGFR-TKI appears effective in these cases if tumors harbor C797S and T790M located in trans allelic configuration that allows targeting of both mutants [<xref rid="B273-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">273</xref>
,<xref rid="B274-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">274</xref>
]. However, it has been noticed that after an initial OR, further progressive disease may occur due to tumor cell clones shifting C797S from in trans to in cis with respect to T790M, which results in steric hindrance of the binding of TKIs to [<xref rid="B274-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">274</xref>
]. An additional factor influencing the response to 3G TKIs appears to be the presence, amount, and type of the co-existing original sensitizing <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations. A recent Taiwanese study showed that among patients treated with second-line osimertinib after progressing during 1G/2G EGFR-TKI treatment because of the appearance of a T790M mutation, those without detectable original <italic>EGFR</italic>
-activating mutations in plasma before osimertinib initiation had the best median OS and PFS (22.4 and 10.8 months, respectively). In contrast, patients without detectable T790M but presence of <italic>EGFR</italic>
-activating mutations in their cfDNA samples displayed the shortest median PFS in the cohort (2.6 months) [<xref rid="B30-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">30</xref>
]. Similarly, in the above-mentioned study by Del Re et al. the PFS after receiving second-line osimertinib was significantly shorter in patients with high AF of the sensitizing <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutant in their cfDNA than in patients with low AF [<xref rid="B269-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">269</xref>
]. This is consistent with the fact that the abundance of T790M and co-existing activating <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutation inversely affect the predictive impact of the T790M/activating <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutation ratio.</p>
<p>In addition, in vitro testing of <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutants capable of conferring osimertinib-resistance regardless of the presence of T790M (therefore, also when used as first-line) showed that when exon 19del was the sensitizing mutation, only C797S imparted significant resistance against osimertinib. In contrast, either of the combinations of L858R with C797S, C797G, L718Q, or L718V mutations conferred resistance to osimertinib, indicating that the type of co-existing sensitizing <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutation may affect the resistance to first- or second-line osimertinib too [<xref rid="B275-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">275</xref>
]. Similar results have recently been seen in T790M-positive NSCLC patients receiving osimertinib as second- or third-line, in that those with co-existing <italic>EGFR</italic>
exon 19del displayed longer PFS and OS than patients harboring L858R co-mutation [<xref rid="B23-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>
]. Consistent with the results by Niederst et al. [<xref rid="B272-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">272</xref>
], erlotinib showed the greatest activity for C797S-mediated resistance, whereas the 2G TKIs afatinib and dacomitinib were effective for other osimertinib-resistant mutations [<xref rid="B275-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">275</xref>
]. In line with that, C797S has been observed to develop instead of T790M in subsets of EGFR L858R- and G719A-positive cell lines that became resistant to increasing concentrations of afatinib or dacomitinib. These C797S-harboring cell clones, despite being also osimertinib-resistant, responded to erlotinib or gefitinib, while as expected cells that had acquired T790M were sensitive to osimertinib but not 1G TKIs [<xref rid="B276-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">276</xref>
,<xref rid="B277-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">277</xref>
]. Together, these results suggest that 1G or 2G EGFR-TKIs might help tackle resistance to osimertinib if this drug is employed as first-line and depending on the combinations of secondary and sensitizing mutations [<xref rid="B275-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">275</xref>
]. Additional preclinical results further suggest that 1G TKIs could be more effective than 2G TKIs as second-line treatment to the C797S/sensitizing mutation combination emerging after first-line osimertinib [<xref rid="B278-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">278</xref>
]. Interestingly, in a very recent study an initial combination of osimertinib and afatinib appeared capable of eliminating exon 19del-positive cells with no development of T790M and C797S resistance-mutations, while the sequential use of the two drugs was unable to do so and resulted in the growth of triple exon 19del/T790M/C797S mutants [<xref rid="B279-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">279</xref>
]. The different combinations of osimertinib with 1G or 2G EGFR-TKIs await clinical testing in specific trials.</p>
<p>These accumulating data also imply that re-biopsies should be performed at the time of progression on first-line EGFR-TKIs of early generation and thoroughly analyzed histologically, by NGS, and other ancillary techniques of PCR, FISH, and IHC for the possible presence of shared molecular and phenotypic resistance-mechanisms, before considering second-line treatment with osimertinib in T790M-positive cases. When feasible, a tumor tissue re-biopsy should be performed together with a liquid re-biopsy, given that cfDNA/RNA from liquid biopsies can be problematic for the detection of potentially occurring gene fusions and cannot assess the presence of SCLC-transformation, EMT or trans-differentiation to SqCC [<xref rid="B242-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">242</xref>
]. However, given their high achievability and ability to overcome the problem of genetic tumor heterogeneity, liquid biopsies analyzed by NGS are useful for identifying circulating T790M and possible co-mutations before initiating osimertinib, and for monitoring the response and development of resistance-mutations during treatment [<xref rid="B12-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>

]. From what is discussed above, it is increasingly established that once treated with EGFR-TKIs, NSCLCs that are dependent on EGFR-signaling may become TKI-resistant by selecting pre-existing clones carrying resistance-mutations or possessing the ability to depend on alternative oncogenic pathways for growth and survival, even if the initial TKI-sensitive clones are eliminated [<xref rid="B11-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>

As mentioned, several of the genetic mechanisms underlying the “acquired” TKI-resistance may already be present at sufficiently high AF at baseline (de novo) or be very rapidly induced in surviving cells as early adaptive tumor response to the targeted therapy.

,<xref rid="B29-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>

,<xref rid="B206-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">206</xref>
]. Due to tumor heterogeneity, different random genetic events causing intrinsic and acquired resistance may be concomitantly present within the same tumor or in separate metastatic sites within the same patient (i.e., polyclonal resistance) [<xref rid="B12-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
,<xref rid="B57-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">57</xref>
]. During further tumor evolution the most effective clones for tumor progression under the adverse conditions caused by targeted treatment may be selected and expanded. Indeed, while sensitizing <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations are prevalently occurring as early clonal events during NSCLC development, most advanced NSCLCs possess heterogeneous regions harboring late clonal driver alterations that can represent TKI-resistance mechanisms, such as mutations in <italic>TP53</italic>
and genes involved in the RAS-RAF-MAPK or PI3K-AKT-PTEN-mTOR pathways, cell cycle regulation, Wnt/β-catenin pathway, DNA damage repair, chromatin remodeling, and histone methylation [<xref rid="B11-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
,<xref rid="B12-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
].</p>
<p>As an additional layer of complexity, an alternative, recently described mechanism by which cancer cells can be intrinsically or become secondarily resistant to EGFR-TKIs is “drug tolerance”. This is considered an acute defense response preceding a completely drug-resistant state and tumor progression [<xref rid="B280-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">280</xref>
]. Across multiple cell lines, small subpopulations of cancer cells have been reported to survive in response to a variety of drug treatments, including targeted therapies, by initially entering a so-called drug-tolerant “persister” state of negligible growth lasting weeks to months during treatment. The increasing interest in drug tolerance to EGFR-TKIs may provide new possibilities for counteracting intrinsic/acquired resistance to these drugs in NSCLC. Ramirez et al. demonstrated in EGFR-addicted, erlotinib-sensitive NSCLC cell lines the emergence of small subpopulations of cancer cells that became resistant to erlotinib and originated from a common clone, through the bottleneck of drug-tolerant, slow-growing “persisters” [<xref rid="B280-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">280</xref>
]. Using large-scale drug screening and whole-exome sequencing, these authors provided pharmacological and/or genetic evidence for emergence of diverse alternative mechanisms of drug-resistance in the erlotinib-resistant cell colonies, including ones observed clinically such as T790M or mutations/CNV in alternative parallel oncogenic RTKs (MET or ERBB2) or in the downstream RAS-RAF-MAPK and -PI3K-AKT-PTEN-mTOR pathways. Interestingly, Ramirez et al. identified erlotinib-resistant colonies with multiple concurrent genetic alterations and/or drug vulnerabilities, while they were unable to determine the erlotinib-resistance mechanisms in other drug-resistant colonies, which suggests that the diversity and heterogeneity of TKI-resistant cells emerging from the “persister” state could be even greater than anticipated [<xref rid="B280-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">280</xref>
]. Indeed, several questions regarding the timing, diversity and mechanisms by which TKI-resistance can arise in patients through the “persister” bottleneck in different selective pressures remain unanswered.</p>
<p>In this respect, epigenetic mechanisms of reversible drug-tolerance to osimertinib have been described. One study showed that miR-147b can generate a reversible state of tolerance to osimertinib [<xref rid="B281-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">281</xref>
]. Using miRNA-sequencing analysis, metabolomics and genetic studies, these authors demonstrated that miR-147b is the most upregulated microRNA in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC cells that are osimertinib-tolerant and that this drug-tolerance, at least in part, is due to the deregulation of the tricarboxylic acid cycle and induction of pseudohypoxia pathways by this miR [<xref rid="B281-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">281</xref>
]. Although hypoxia is the main stimulus for the expression of the transcription factors HIF-1α and HIF-2α that regulate downstream hypoxia-driven genes, HIF-1α and HIF-2α can also be induced by a pseudohypoxia state. In turn, this state can be caused by aberrant growth factor signaling and mutations in oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes independently of oxygen levels [<xref rid="B282-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">282</xref>
]. The work by Zhang et al. indicates that miR-147b is an additional trigger of pseudohypoxia and thereby can initiate tolerance to EGFR-TKIs in LAC [<xref rid="B281-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">281</xref>
].</p>
<p>Many of the studies discussed above indicate that the molecular characterization of inherently TKI-resistant pre-existing clones is ongoing [<xref rid="B11-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
,<xref rid="B12-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>

,<xref rid="B240-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">240</xref>
], yet many aspects of their nature remain elusive. For instance, a still open question is whether they consist of more primitive cancer cells resembling cancer-stem cells. In this regard, markers of primordial cancer stem-cells, such as Oct4 and CD133, have been detected in NSCLC cell lines and in tumor specimens of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC patients with acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs, suggesting that they play a role in the resistance process [<xref rid="B283-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">283</xref>
]. In any case, regardless of their resemblance to cancer-stem cells, the fact that the resistant clones implicated in intrinsic resistance, are pre-existing at baseline implicates that they are TKI-independent. However, the clones can further expand into a larger population of TKI-resistant cells under the selective pressure of the following treatment with EGFR-TKIs.</p>
<p>Regardless of which of the above-described cellular paths causes intrinsic TKI-resistance, i.e., through the random pre-existence of clones with resistance-conferring genetic alterations [<xref rid="B11-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
,<xref rid="B12-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
], or the rapid, adaptive, transcriptional cancer cell reprogramming upon treatment [<xref rid="B206-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">206</xref>
], or through the bottleneck of a drug-tolerant, slow-growing “persister state” [<xref rid="B280-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">280</xref>
], different and quite heterogeneous drug-resistance mechanisms may co-exist in the same TKI-resistant NSCLC. This situation appears particularly challenging for “personalized” treatment, as even if an effective combination therapy may be used against one TKI-resistant cell subpopulation, it may not necessarily be effective for other subpopulations that possess other resistance-mechanisms and that in practice may have been undetected [<xref rid="B280-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">280</xref>
]. In this regard, “persisters” represent such a minor fraction of the bulk cancer population that they are currently difficult to study in a clinical context, and there is no known molecular signature of having passed through the “persister” state clinically [<xref rid="B280-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">280</xref>
].</p>
<p>Collectively, the different concepts underlined in this review support the view that intrinsic and acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs are strictly connected to each other and may differ mainly for the time point in which they can be objectively perceived (immediately/few weeks vs. several months after TKI-initiation). In turn, this temporal difference may depend on the amount and operational potency of the preexisting/early induced resistant tumor cells as well as on the interindividual differences in TKI metabolism and pharmacokinetics. Mutations potentially causing primary TKI-resistance might be difficult to detect in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue biopsies if they are only present in small heterogeneous subclones and if the DNA sequencing coverage is suboptimal. Conversely, in acquired TKI-resistance, the causative mutations should be easier to identify, as due to treatment-related selective pressure they should be present in most cancer cells at progressing sites. Consequently, targeting a single activating <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutation will eventually result in treatment failure, because pre-existing or swiftly induced resistant cells will, by variable mechanisms and at different times and tumor locations, expand and prevail. By the same token, the combination of drugs targeting alterations in different pathways that are already identifiable at baseline could potentially be utilized to prevent or postpone the appearance of resistant tumor cells more effectively than sequential monotherapies with TKIs of different generation [<xref rid="B206-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">206</xref>
]. Indeed, given the increasing evidence for the clinical benefit of synchronously inhibiting both the primary driver mutation and the emerged putative resistance-driver alteration in the setting of acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs [<xref rid="B36-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">36</xref>
,<xref rid="B37-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">37</xref>
], such a combinatorial targeted approach may also be successful at baseline to tackle inherently resistant co-mutated tumors. In this regard, the molecular techniques utilized in clinical routine, especially at diagnosis (PCR panels, targeted NGS, FISH, IHC and others), cover only a specified number of driver genes resulting in restricted knowledge of the elements regulating response and resistance to TKIs. Additionally, lung cancer is a very complex and heterogeneous disease characterized by spatially and temporally diverse combinations of mutations. Thus, the optimal implementation of combinatorial targeted therapy strategies for NSCLC in the future will require wider information on the genetic and epigenetic events that can lead to TKI-resistance and that could represent additional targets and predictive biomarkers. Relatedly, recent reports provide definite support to the application of extensive molecular profiling of NSCLC and other solid cancers. This approach may detect multiple molecular alterations that may coexist within individual tumors and may potentially represent actionable targets for combinatorial therapies in a significant number of patients [<xref rid="B10-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>

,<xref rid="B285-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">285</xref>
].</p>
<p>Current updated international guidelines recommend that NSCLC patients with verified or probable adenocarcinoma histology or those with mixed histology including an adenocarcinoma component, younger NSCLC patients, and patients without a history of smoking, should be tested for <italic>EGFR-</italic>
mutations, <italic>ALK-</italic>
fusions and <italic>ROS1-</italic>
fusions to identify candidates to first-line therapy with specific TKIs [<xref rid="B49-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">49</xref>
,<xref rid="B50-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">50</xref>
]. As we discussed above, the response to these drugs is variable and there is mounting evidence for the occurrence of co-mutations in other cancer-driver genes that may either cause initial resistance or reduce the time to progression to first-line TKI-treatment. These co-existing molecular alterations are becoming more effectively identifiable with the continuous technological progress of sensitive and specific comprehensive methods of massively parallel sequencing. Although these procedures are still technically and economically challenging for routine practice in pathology laboratories, the benefit obtained by multiplexed genetic sequencing panels is becoming widely recognized and makes them preferable to multiple single-gene tests for identifying mechanisms of TKI-resistance, alternative targets, and combined or sequential treatment options beyond <italic>EGFR</italic>
, <italic>ALK</italic>
, and <italic>ROS1</italic>
[<xref rid="B49-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">49</xref>
,<xref rid="B50-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">50</xref>
].</p>
<p>Overall, these considerations suggest that, in addition to the three “must-be-tested” <italic>EGFR, ALK</italic>
and <italic>ROS1</italic>
genes (currently together with the assessment of PD-L1 status by IHC), testing of NSCLC should be expanded to include all classes of genomic alterations (base substitutions, indels, CNVs, and rearrangements) and detect other potential molecular biomarkers that could aid in more effectively predicting the response to first-line TKIs alone or combined with other drugs. For these reasons, the current updated guidelines also state that, given the growing knowledge on cancer-drivers involved in the development, progression, and therapy-resistance of NSCLC as well as the increase of molecularly targeted drugs, it is appropriate to include <italic>BRAF, KRAS, MET, ERBB2, RET, NTRK</italic>
as part of larger multiplexed NGS testing panels performed either initially or when routine <italic>EGFR, ALK,</italic>
and <italic>ROS1</italic>
testing are negative [<xref rid="B49-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">49</xref>
,<xref rid="B50-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">50</xref>
]. Thus, it is expectable that with further understanding of the mechanisms of intrinsic and acquired drug-resistance, future guidelines will include recommendations for larger gene panels capable of impacting decisions regarding the first and following lines of targeted treatment for <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC patients. The investigation of new TKIs of fourth generation, such as mutant-selective allosteric inhibitors capable of simultaneously inhibiting sensitizing <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations, T790M, and C797S (and similar resistant mutations), as well as targeted drug combinations capable of overcoming resistance to the currently used EGFR-TKIs and improving the outcome of specific subgroups of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC patients is ongoing [<xref rid="B286-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">286</xref>
,<xref rid="B287-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">287</xref>
]. Consequently, the implementation of multiplexed molecular diagnostics is likely to become essential for better therapeutic strategies and prediction.</p>
<p>However, a significant challenge for the future development of effective multiplexed predictive tests and combinatorial treatment regimens is represented by genomic tumor heterogeneity and the multiplicity as well as unpredictability of TKI-resistance mechanisms. Targeting single genetic alterations, such as <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutants does not seem sufficient to ensure long-lasting or even curative tumor regressions. Thus, the mechanisms of intrinsic TKI-resistance, ideally, should be identified before treatment and the latter should be tailored according to the results of pre-treatment tests. Likewise, it is important to define the impact on the response and resistance to EGFR-TKIs of other recurrent genetic alterations downstream EGFR that have frequently been detected in LAC and that are attractive potential therapeutic targets. Such mutations affect the chromatin-modifying genes <italic>SETD2, ARID1A</italic>
, and <italic>SMARCA4</italic>
, the RNA-splicing genes <italic>RBM10</italic>
and <italic>U2AF1</italic>
, members of the oxidative stress-related Keap1-Nrf2 pathway, as well as the <italic>MYC</italic>
proto-oncogene and genes of cell cycle regulation and WNT/β-catenin pathway [<xref rid="B3-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
,<xref rid="B7-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>
,<xref rid="B10-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>
,<xref rid="B12-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
,<xref rid="B288-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">288</xref>
]. Equally, further knowledge on the consequences of DNA damage/repair and genomic/chromosomal instability in NSCLC is urgently warranted. Limiting the occurrence of these processes that can result in significant SNVs and CNVs of many genes may at least in part prevent the occurrence of genomic heterogeneity, drug resistance, and tumor progression [<xref rid="B11-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
].</p>
<p>Furthermore, discovering common convergent diagnostic and therapeutic themes related to EGFR-TKI resistance is needed for tackling the challenge of tumor heterogeneity. In this respect, signaling players downstream EGFR appear as promising factors for counteracting TKI-resistance. One of these could be the TF NF-κB, which is activated in response to EGFR-TKIs, drives survival of EGFR-dependent cancer cells, and whose genetic or pharmacologic inhibition can potentiate erlotinib-induced apoptosis in NSCLC models [<xref rid="B289-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">289</xref>
,<xref rid="B290-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">290</xref>
]. Accordingly, increased expression of the NF-κB inhibitor IκB was predictive for positive response to EGFR-TKIs in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC patients [<xref rid="B290-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">290</xref>
]. Thus, the analysis of NF-κB/IκB expression was proposed as companion predictive marker for a potential combinatorial therapy pharmacologically targeting NF-κB in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC [<xref rid="B290-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">290</xref>
]. Another attractive element for tackling TKI-resistance downstream EGFR is AKT, as it has recently been shown that activation of the AKT pathway is a convergent trait in <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLCs with acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs caused by different underlying mechanisms. Correspondingly, combined treatment with AKT- and EGFR-inhibitors synergistically inhibits the growth of preclinical models of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC resistant to erlotinib, gefitinib or osimertinib [<xref rid="B291-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">291</xref>
]. Importantly, phosphorylated AKT (pAKT) was detected by IHC not only in 60% of examined samples from NSCLC patients after progression on EGFR-TKIs by different resistance mechanisms, but also in 11% of baseline samples, suggesting the pre-existence of pAKT-positive, intrinsically resistant clones. Indeed, the pAKT-positive baseline cases displayed significantly worse PFS and OS to first-line EGFR-TKI therapy than pAKT-negative cases [<xref rid="B291-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">291</xref>
]. These data suggest that: (1) the analysis of pAKT levels at baseline may have clinical utility as a molecular predictor of response and resistance to EGFR-TKIs; and (2) AKT may be an attractive target for tackling intrinsic and acquired TKI-resistance. Similarly, recent preclinical studies have suggested that NSCLC cells made osimertinib-resistant through different mechanisms maintain their growth in part by aberrant EGFR-independent activation of the MAPK pathway downstream EGFR and can regain drug-sensitivity by combining osimertinib with a MEK-inhibitor [<xref rid="B292-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">292</xref>
,<xref rid="B293-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">293</xref>
]. Thus, co-targeting EGFR and downstream MAPK and AKT pathways might turn out to be an effective strategy to overcome resistance to EGFR-TKIs of different generations in the future.</p>
<p>In conclusion, there is a plethora of recognized, interchangeably dominating mechanisms that can cause intrinsic and/or acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs, though many more are expected to be discovered, not least when osimertinib becomes the SOC first-line EGFR-TKI. For many patients with advanced <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC the estimated median OS is reaching three years, thanks to the subsequent or combined employment of EGFR-TKIs and chemotherapy or immunotherapy. Yet, despite the five EGFR-TKIs (gefitinib, erlotinib, afatinib, dacomitinib, and osimertinib) currently available for the treatment of <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC, the ideal sequence for administering these drugs remains to be established [<xref rid="B294-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">294</xref>
]. By the same token, there are several first-line options available for treating <italic>EGFR</italic>
M+ NSCLC (i.e., 1G, 2G, and 3G TKIs, TKI+antiangiogenic agent and TKI+chemotherapy) after the report of the remarkable PFS benefit and immature OS data for osimertinib vs. 1G EGFR-TKIs and of the ARCHER phase III study displaying the superior PFS and OS benefit of the 2G TKI dacomitinib vs. 1G TKI [<xref rid="B24-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>
,<xref rid="B295-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">295</xref>
,<xref rid="B296-cancers-11-00923" ref-type="bibr">296</xref>
]. Thus, elucidating how primary and acquired TKI-resistance may develop during these different therapeutic approaches is also important for individually choosing the optimal treatment for each patient. Therefore, (re)biopsies of tumor tissue and plasma cfDNA at baseline and progression represent an invaluable tool for detecting the individual resistance mechanisms in each patient and guiding further treatment of this very heterogenous disease. Especially, the study of signaling pathways downstream EGFR is expected to unveil new converging elements that can aid in predicting and treating intrinsic and acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs.</p>

<caption><p>Summary of main molecular mechanisms of intrinsic resistance to EGFR-tyrosine-kinase-inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) in <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutated (<italic>EGFR</italic>
M+) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Given the clonal genetic heterogeneity of NSCLC, innate genetic alterations capable of impairing the response and causing intrinsic resistance to TKIs may be present in pre-existing clones before treatment (de novo alterations) or may be very rapidly induced in surviving cancer cells as immediate adaptive response or tolerance to the targeted therapy. If the relative allelic frequency of one or several (polyclonal resistance) of these pre-existing/immediately induced alterations is sufficient to very rapidly counteract the effect of TKIs (conventionally within the first 3 months after TKI-treatment initiation), tumor cells will continue to proliferate and survive, and intrinsic TKI-resistance will ensue. The EGFR-dependent resistance mechanisms are represented by amplification (<bold>Ampl</bold>
) and/or specific somatic or germline mutations (<bold>Mut</bold>
) of the <italic>EGFR</italic>
-gene. Some of these mutations cause resistance to EGFR-TKIs of all three generations, while others are sensitive to 2G or 3G TKIs, as indicated (* = EGFR-mutants resistant to 1G/2G EGFR-TKIs, but sensitive to 3G TKIs, the most common being <bold>T790M</bold>
indicated in bold; ** = EGFR-mutants resistant to 1G EGFR-TKIs, but sensitive to afatinib). Among the uncommon <italic>EGFR</italic>
-mutations G719X and insertions in exon 19 (Exon 19ins) are indicated in brackets, because despite being less sensitive than common EGFR-mutants, they may show some response to 1G TKIs. Instead, most of the EGFR-independent resistance mechanisms are shared by EGFR-TKIs of all three generations and include the activation of by-pass pathways via amplification (<bold>Ampl</bold>
), mutation (<bold>Mut</bold>
) or fusion (<bold>Fus</bold>
) of alternative parallel receptor tyrosine kinase- (RTK)-genes such as <italic>Mesenchymal-Epithelial Transition</italic>
(<italic>MET), Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK)</italic>
, non-EGFR <italic>Erythroblastic Oncogene B</italic>
(<italic>ERBB)</italic>
-family-members, <italic>Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor</italic>
genes (<italic>FGFR</italic>
s) (written in bold), and possibly <italic>REarranged during Transfection</italic>
(<italic>RET</italic>
) and <italic>Neurotrophic Tyrosine Receptor Kinase (NTRK)</italic>
(not in bold). Activation of parallel RTKs can also be induced by overexpression of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) that binds the MET-receptor or Heregulin (Hrg) that binds ERBB2. Alternative downstream by-pass mechanisms of resistance are represented by mutations, fusions, or deletion (<bold>Del</bold>
) of members of the RAS-RAF-MEK-MAPK and PI3K-AKT-PTEN-mTOR pathways or inactivation of <italic>TP53</italic>
and/or <italic>retinoblastoma 1 (RB1)</italic>
tumor-suppressor genes via mutation/deletion/epigenetic mechanism (<bold>Epigen</bold>
) or indirectly by gene-amplification of the p53-inhibitor Mouse Double Minute 2 homolog (MDM2) and mutation/amplification of genes encoding cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). Additional by-pass mechanisms are activation (<bold>Act</bold>
) of the NF-κB transcription factor by different pathways or impairment of TKI-induced apoptosis by loss of the pro-apoptotic <italic>BIM</italic>
-gene expression due to genetic polymorphism (<bold>Polym</bold>
) or transcriptional downregulation (<bold>Downreg</bold>
). Putative mechanisms of intrinsic (and acquired) resistance to all three generations’ TKIs that await further clinical validation are phenotypic changes, such as epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), transformation to small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) or squamous cell carcinomas (SqCC), and potential functional changes reducing TKI efficacy, like rapidly increased autophagic activity, drug-efflux or intracellular drug-sequestration in cancer cells. Some evidence for NSCLC cases with pre-existing, inherently TKI-resistant cells due to upregulation (Upreg; in brackets) of the EMT-inducing RTK AXL has also been provided. RTKs are in light blue, intracellular downstream oncoproteins in white boxes, tumor suppressors in yellow symbols.</p>
