Description: Nearly 60% of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) present with metastatic disease, and approximately 20% have brain metastases (BrMs) at diagnosis. During the disease course, 25-50% of patients will develop BrMs. Despite available treatments, survival rates for patients with NSCLC and BrMs remain low, and their overall prognosis is poor. Even with newer agents for NSCLC, options for treating BrMs can be limited by their ineffective transport across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and the unique brain tumor microenvironment. The presence of actionable genomic alterations (AGAs) is a key determinant of optimal treatment selection, which aims to maximize responses and minimize toxicities. The objective of this systematic literature review (SLR) was to understand the current landscape of the clinical management of patients with NSCLC and BrMs, particularly those with AGAs.A Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA)-compliant SLR was conducted to identify studies in patients with BrMs in NSCLC. Searches used the EMBASE and MEDLINE® databases, and articles published between January 1, 2017 and September 26, 2022 were reviewed.Overall, 179 studies were included in the SLR. This subset review focused on 80 studies that included patients with NSCLC, BrMs, and AGAs (19 randomized controlled trials [RCTs], two single-arm studies, and 59 observational studies). Sixty-four of the 80 studies reported on epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations, 14 on anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) alterations, and two on both alterations. Ninety-five percent of studies evaluated targeted therapy. All RCTs allowed patients with previously treated, asymptomatic, or neurologically stable BrMs; the percentage of asymptomatic BrMs varied across observational studies.Although targeted therapies demonstrate systemic benefits for patients with NSCLC, BrMs, and AGAs, there remains a continued need for effective therapies to treat and prevent BrMs in this population. Increased BBB permeability of emerging therapies may improve outcomes for this population.
