BACKGROUNDNext-generation sequencing (NGS) has become widely available but molecular profiling-guided therapy (MGT) had not been well established in the real world due to lack of available therapies and expertise to match treatment. Our study was designed to test the feasibility of a nationwide platform of NGS-guided MGT recommended by a central molecular tumor board (cMTB) for metastatic solid tumors.PATIENTS AND METHODSPatients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors with available NGS results and without standard treatment were enrolled. The cMTB interpreted the patients' NGS reports and recommended the following: (i) investigational medicinal products (IMPs) approved in other indications; (ii) alternative treatments; (iii) clinical trials. The primary variables were the proportion of patients with actionable genomic alterations and those receiving MGT as per cMTB recommendations. Others included treatment duration (TD), overall response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and safety.RESULTSFrom February 2021 to February 2022, 193 cases [99 (51.3%) men; median age 58 years (range 24-88 years); median line of previous treatment 3 (range 0-9)] from 29 sites were enrolled for 60 cMTB sessions. The median time from case submission to cMTB discussion was 7 days (range 2-20 days), and to IMP treatment initiation was 28 days (range 14-90 days). Actionable genetic alterations were found in 145 patients (75.1%). A total of 89 (46.1%) patients received actual dosing of IMPs, and 10 (5.2%) were enrolled in cMTB-recommended clinical trials, achieving an MGT rate of 51.3%. ORR and DCR of IMPs were 10.1% and 72.5%, respectively. The median TD was 3.5 months [95% confidence interval (CI) 2.8-5.5 months], and the 4-month TD rate was 44.9%. The median overall survival of patients who received IMPs was 6.9 months (95% CI 5.2-10.0 months).CONCLUSIONKOSMOS confirmed the feasibility of MGT recommended by the cMTB, achieving a high MGT match rate and promising effectiveness in heavily pretreated advanced cancer patients.
