EGFR G719A
Overview
EGFR G719A is present in 0.15% of AACR GENIE cases, with lung adenocarcinoma, conventional glioblastoma multiforme, poorly differentiated non-small cell lung cancer, squamous cell lung carcinoma, and infiltrating renal pelvis and ureter urothelial carcinoma having the greatest prevalence [4].
Biomarker-Directed Therapies
EGFR G719A is a predictive biomarker for use of osimertinib, afatinib, erlotinib, gefitinib, capmatinib, crizotinib, dacomitinib, and pembrolizumab in patients.
Of the therapies with EGFR G719A as a predictive biomarker, 2 are FDA-approved and 7 have NCCN guidelines in at least one clinical setting.
Non-small cell lung carcinoma has the most therapies targeted against EGFR G719A or its related pathways [5].
