Abstract:
e13120 Background: To determine the epidermal growth factor receptor ( EGFR) mutation status in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients in Vietnamese population at Bach Mai Hospital, and relation of different variables to the frequency of EGFR mutations. Methods: The EGFR mutation status of 1451 tissue samples in NSCLC patients and correlation among different variables of age, gender, smoking habit and histology groups were evaluated. Results: A total of EGFR mutation analysis was performed, with an overall mutation rate of 40.7%. The most prevalent categories were in-frame deletions in exon 19 (57.2% of the overall mutations); followed by L858R and L861Q in exon 21 (35.7%); exon 18 (4,6%); double mutation: 2.9%; The T790M mutation in exon 20 represented approximately 2.5%; The pooled prevalence of EGFR mutation was higher in female (60.6%), non-smokers (61.1%), and patients with adenocarcinoma (42.2%). Conclusions: The prevalence of EGFR mutations of NSCLC in Vietnam is higher than that in the West, but comparably equal to that in some Asian countries. It is associated with female sex, non-smoker status, and adenocarcinoma, sample tissue type and age, but not depends on disease stage and tumor sampling.
