RESAMEX is a prospective study evaluating the mechanisms of acquired resistance to amivantamab monotherapy in patients with advanced NSCLC with EGFR ins20. Biological analysis will be performed on circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA) at the time of disease progression and on tumor tissue at the time of disease progression when available.
* ctDNA : The extraction of the ctDNA will be performed in an automated way with the Promega RSC LV cfDNA kit on Maxwell platform. Sequencing will be performed on NextSeq500 platform with a panel of 208 genes (including 190 genes with full coverage of coding regions, and 11 genes with coverage of introns involved in translocations) covering 800 kpb and at a target depth of 8000 X.
* Tissue : Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) next generation sequencing (NGS) will be performed on tumor biopsy (10 slides of 5 microns) .
Samples will be sent for centralized analysis to Centre de Recherche en Cancérologie de Marseille (CRCM), 27 Bd Lei Roure, 13009 Marseille (Prof. Tomasini and Gwenaël Lumet), and will be stored at Centre de Ressources Biologiques de l'Assistance Publique Hôpitaux de Marseille (CRB AP-HM), 264 Rue Saint-Pierre, 13005 Marseille.
