Background: Defining the impact of KRAS mutation status on outcomes to standard of care treatments in metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) is of increasing clinical relevance. We interrogated a large real-world genomic database to further explore the association between KRAS mutations and benefit to trifluridine-tipiracil (FTD-TPI) in patients with mCRC. Methods: 19,364 patients with mCRC and known KRAS mutation status were analyzed by next-generation sequencing (NextSeq, 592 Genes; NovaSeq, whole exome sequencing (WES)) at Caris Life Sciences. Real-world overall survival (rwOS) and time on treatment (ToT) was inferred from insurance claims data and calculated from time of start of treatment with FTD-TPI to last contact and time from first to last treatment with FTD-TPI with comparison done by the Kaplan-Meier test, respectively. Chi-square test was applied where appropriate, with p-value adjusted for multiple comparisons (p < 0.05). Results: 764 of 10,571 (7.2%) patients with wild-type (WT) KRAS, 768 of 6,984 (11%) with KRAS G12 mutation, and 170 of 1,809 (9.4%) with KRAS G13 mutation received FTD-TPI. Age distribution was similar among groups. Sidedness of primary site was reported in 692 (40.3%) patients; an increased proportion of right-sided tumors was observed in KRAS G12 (53.4% vs. 28.3%, p < 0.0001) and G13 (56% vs 28.3%, p < 0.0001) groups compared to KRAS WT. An increased proportion of TP53 mutations in KRAS WT was observed compared to KRAS G12 mutation (87% vs. 70%, p < 0.0001) and KRAS G13 mutation groups (87% vs. 75%, p < 0.0001). KRAS G12 mutation was associated with shorter median rwOS compared to KRAS WT (7.33 vs. 8.43 months (mo), HR 1.13 (95% CI 1.11-1.42), p = 0.041). KRAS G13 mutation was associated with similar rwOS to KRAS WT. Median ToT was shorter in patients with KRAS G12 mutations than KRAS WT (1.8 vs. 2 mo, HR of 1.22 (95% CI 1.11-1.42), p < 0.001). Median ToT was longer in patients with KRAS G13 versus KRAS G12 (2.3 vs. 1.8 mo, HR 0.82 (95% CI 0.68-0.98), p = 0.032). Conclusions: To our knowledge, this is the largest primarily US-based cohort of mCRC treated with FTD-TPI to be reported. KRAS G12 mutation, but not KRAS G13 mutation, was associated with shorter rwOS and ToT compared to KRAS WT, despite enrichment of TP53 and BRAF mutations in the KRAS WT group. This finding is consistent with previously published analyses of large randomized prospective trials of FTD-TPI in mCRC and further support KRAS mutation status as a predictive biomarker in this setting.
