abstract = {Limited DNA sequencing data on lung cancer (LC) patients
are available from Eastern Europe where male smoking is
commonest in Europe. As sequence analysis is the
prerequisite for targeted therapy we provide such data from
Czechia (CZ). Additionally, we present novel sequencing data
for adenocarcinoma subtypes. Panel sequencing data on 1218
adenocarcinoma patients were available from a single
histology laboratory for 2016 to 2024. The highest variant
frequencies were observed for KRAS $(51.6\%),$ EGFR
$(18.8\%)$ and TP53 $(16.3\%).$ Commonest types of variants
were codon 12 mutations for KRAS, exon 21 L858R for EGFR and
V600E BRAF. EGFR variants were more common in females
$(25.3\%$ vs $11.5\%).$ KRAS mutations were frequent in
males $(56.9\%$ vs $46.9\%),$ as were PIK3CA mutations
$(3.8\%$ vs $1.9\%).$ KRAS mutations were frequent in
patients diagnosed below 70 years, whereas EGFR, PIK3CA and
MET alterations were frequent in patients above age 70
years. As stage distinctions, high prevalence of KRAS
mutations was found in early stage tumors (II and IIIA) and
of TP53 mutations in stages IIIB and IV. As to
adenocarcinoma subtypes, lepidic type showed a high
frequency of EGFR variants. We could show differential
distribution of gene variants by sex, diagnostic age, stage
and subtype of adenocarcinoma. The data are in line with
current literature that targeted treatment is being applied
for selected LC patients in CZ. It can be expected that LC
patients benefit from therapeutic and other clinical
improvements, which however do not reduce the primary
importance of anti-smoking campaigns.},
