BRAF-mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: Understanding

BRAF-mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: Overview

About 80% to 85% of lung cancers are Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. The main subtypes of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer are adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and large cell carcinoma. These subtypes, which start from different types of lung cells are grouped together as Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer because their treatment and prognoses (outlook) are often similar.

BRAF mutated lung cancer is a rare form of NSCLC. BRAF mutations have been reported in about 4% of non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC). They are most common in adenocarcinoma non-small cell lung cancer. BRAF V600E mutations specifically occur in about 1-2% of non-small cell lung cancer patients. Most patients with BRAF V600E tend to have a smoking history.

BRAF is the name of both a gene and a protein. The BRAF protein helps control cell growth. When there is a mutation in the BRAF gene, it creates an abnormal protein that sends signals that lead to uncontrolled cell growth and cancer. The BRAF protein works with another protein called MEK to regulate the growth of cells. There are different mutations within BRAF, but the one with FDA-approved treatment in lung cancer is BRAF V600E. This mutation is a specific variation in the BRAF protein. In cells with this mutation, BRAF can always turn on the MEK protein.

Identification of BRAF Mutations

BRAF mutations can be found in several ways. The pathologist can use a test to look specifically for BRAF mutations in the tumor. However, most physicians prefer a testing approach that can look for mutations in multiple genes at one time using a single biopsy. This is called comprehensive next-generation sequencing (NGS). This type of testing places tissue from a patient’s tumor (gathered from a biopsy) in a machine that looks for a large number of possible biomarkers at one time. There may be some situations where a patient can’t undergo the biopsy needed to perform NGS, and so liquid biopsy is recommended. A liquid biopsy can look for certain biomarkers in a patient’s blood.

Treatment and Management

First-line treatment for BRAF V600E mutations in lung cancer is either: a combination of the targeted therapies dabrafenib and trametinib (pills that target the mutation) or immunotherapy with or without chemotherapy

The targeted therapy drug combination helps address the BRAF mutation (dabrafenib) and the MEK protein (trametinib). Patients with a different type of BRAF mutation should ask their doctor about a clinical trial. The standard of care for patients with a different BRAF mutation is immunotherapy with or without chemotherapy.

BRAF-mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Emerging Drugs

Encorafenib/Binimetinib: Pierre Fabre Medicament

BRAFTOVI (encorafenib) is a BRAF kinase inhibitor, indicated in combination with MEKTOVI (binimetinib) for the treatment of adult patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma with a BRAFV600 mutation. The combination is currently investigated in Metastatic BRAFV600-mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer in Phase II trial with completion expected in March 2025. This combination is indicated and being tested for several other indications.

XP-102: Xynomic Pharmaceuticals, Inc.

XP-102 is a second generation potent and selective pan-RAF inhibitor uniquely binding to the DFG-out conformation, whereas marketed BRAF inhibitors occupy the DFG-in conformation. XP-102 holds potential as an innovative therapy against B-RAF V600 mutated solid tumors including CRC and non-small cell lung cancer and hairy cell leukemia. The drug is currently being investigated for several tumor including non-small cell lung cancer in Phase I/II which is expected to be completed by December 2024.
