Table 4. Concordance between the EGFR mutation status in tissue and plasma samples in advanced or metastatic NSCLC TKI-naïve patients.
| Tissue Sample | ||
|---|---|---|
| EGFR mutation (n=23) | EGFR wild-type (n=81) | |
| cfDNA | ||
| EGFR mutation (n=18) | 18 | 0 |
| EGFR wild-type (n=86) | 5 | 81 |
| Sensitivity (95%, CI), % | 78.3 (89.2–97.9) | |
| Specificity (95%, CI), % | 100 (95.5–100) | |
| PPV (95%, CI), % | 100 (82.4–100) | |
| NPV (95%, CI), % | 94.2 (87.1–97.5) | |
| Overall concordance (95%, CI), % | 95.2 (89.2–97.9) | |
n, sample size; cfDNA, circulating-free DNA; EGFR, epdermal growth factor receptor; NPV, negative predictive value; PPV, positive predictive value.
