Background KRAS is the most frequently mutated gene in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), however conficting data are available on its role as a biomarker. Objective The aim of our work was to investigate the impact of KRAS mutations on response and survival outcomes in advanced non-squamous NSCLC patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors alone or in combination with chemotherapy. Patients and Methods We retrospectively identifed 119 patients, most of whom (58%) were KRAS wild type. For each patient we evaluated overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and disease control rate (DCR). An exploratory analysis was performed among KRAS mutated patients to investigate the impact of specifc KRAS mutations on response and survival outcomes. Results After a median follow-up of 10.3 months, the median OS was 14.9 months (95% confdence interval [CI] 7.6–22.7) in wild-type KRAS patients versus 14.7 months (95% CI 8.0–19.5) in mutated KRAS patients (p=0.529). No diferences were detected between the two groups in terms of PFS and DCR. Patients with a KRAS G12C mutation reported survival and response outcomes that were not statistically diferent from those of patients with other KRAS mutations. Conclusion Our data confrmed that KRAS mutational status is not associated with survival and response outcomes in advanced non-squamous NSCLC patients treated with immunotherapy alone or combined with chemotherapy

Abstract
Background KRAS is the most frequently mutated gene in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), however conficting data are available on its role as a biomarker. Objective The aim of our work was to investigate the impact of KRAS mutations on response and survival outcomes in advanced non-squamous NSCLC patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors alone or in combination with chemotherapy. Patients and Methods We retrospectively identifed 119 patients, most of whom (58%) were KRAS wild type. For each patient we evaluated overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and disease control rate (DCR). An exploratory analysis was performed among KRAS mutated patients to investigate the impact of specifc KRAS mutations on response and survival outcomes. Results After a median follow-up of 10.3 months, the median OS was 14.9 months (95% confdence interval [CI] 7.6–22.7) in wild-type KRAS patients versus 14.7 months (95% CI 8.0–19.5) in mutated KRAS patients (p=0.529). No diferences were detected between the two groups in terms of PFS and DCR. Patients with a KRAS G12C mutation reported survival and response outcomes that were not statistically diferent from those of patients with other KRAS mutations.
