1 1. Type of survey This is a retrospective survey that will NOT require the disclosure of any individual patient records or data only information about overall EGFR mutation testing practices and the outcomes of these tests carried out in the participating laboratories. This online (electronic) survey contains twenty four simple questions. Those marked with an asterisk () must be answered. The survey should be completed by laboratory personnel e.g. pathologist, oncologist or laboratory head, who has authorized access to the data source from which they are required to answer the survey questions. Page 1

2 2. Survey objectives 1. To obtain data on the current status of EGFR mutation testing across twelve Asian countries, in terms of types of mutation test, sample types, sample preparation, logistics of test request, sample shipment, and result reporting, in order to be used as baseline information for possible improvements to ideal EGFR mutation testing practice 2. To obtain the number of non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who were tested for EGFR mutations in surveyed sites in order to estimate the number of NSCLC patients who are tested for EGFR mutations in the participating countries in Asia Pacific 3. To estimate the frequency of EGFR mutation positivity in: the overall EGFR tested NSCLC population histological subtypes of EGFR tested NSCLC demographic subgroups (gender, smoking status) 4. To estimate the proportion of NSCLC patients who are tested for EGFR mutations in the participating countries in Asia Pacific 5. To determine which EGFR mutation testing methods are most commonly used in the participating countries 6. To evaluate the source of the data captured and to utilize this information for interpretation Page 2

3 3. Minimum requirements for participating sites Sites should have access to a laboratory which performs EGFR mutation testing for clinical purposes, at the request of a treating physician/pathologist Must have tested at least 100 NSCLC cases for EGRF from January December 2011, or if for a given country no site can meet that criteria, sites with the highest numbers of EGFR testing will be surveyed Must have access to data sources containing information about the NSCLC population (number of cases diagnosed and tested, histology, test results) e.g. databases Page 3

4 4. Information about the EGFR mutation testing laboratory Please provide the following details Contact Name: Company/Laboratory Name (if applicable): Hospital Name (if applicable): City/Town: State/Province (if applicable): Country: Address: Phone Number: Page 4

5 5. Information about the EGFR mutation testing laboratory Please specify your type of laboratory: Commercial (independent from hospital) Laboratory only tests samples from your own hospital Laboratory tests samples from your own and other hospitals Is your laboratory accredited or does it participate in a Quality Assurance Programme? (Please tick all that apply) gfedc gfedc gfedc gfedc None Accredited by local accrediting body Accredited by international accrediting body Participates in a Quality Assurance programme Page 5

6 6. Information about NSCLC population and proportion tested for EGFR mutations The purpose of this survey is to determine the proportion of non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients that are being tested in your country, as well as the frequency of EGFR mutation positivity. Hence, we need to be able to estimate the TOTAL number of NSCLC patients diagnosed. In the following section, you will first be asked to provide some information about the NSCLC population that is being tested; i.e. the total number of patients diagnosed with NSCLC in 2011 in the hospitals you serve, and their characteristics. (If you do not know the total number of patients diagnosed with NSCLC in the hospitals you serve, you can answer 'Not known'.) Then you will be asked how many of these NSCLC patients were tested for EGFR mutations in 2011 in your laboratory. Finally, you will be asked how many of the EGFR mutation tests were positive. Page 6

7 7. Information about the NSCLC population that is tested for EGFR mutations What is the total number of NSCLC cases NEWLY DIAGNOSED in the hospital(s) from which you received samples for EGFR mutation testing during January December 2011? (If the number is not known, please type 'Not known' in the relevant box) Squamous cases are also non adenocarcinoma cases. If the data are available, please report here the number of patients who are both non adenocarcinoma AND squamous cases Total number of NSCLC cases newly diagnosed during January December 2011 Number of adenocarcinoma cases diagnosed Number non adenocarcinoma cases diagnosed Number of squamous cell carcinoma cases diagnosed Number of male patients diagnosed Number of female patients diagnosed Number of current/ex smoker patients diagnosed Number of never smoker patients diagnosed Number of biopsy and/or cytology samples diagnosed Number of surgical specimen samples diagnosed Page 7

8 8. Information about the samples tested for EGFR mutations What is the total number of NSCLC cases TESTED FOR EGFR MUTATIONS in your laboratory during January December 2011?

10 10. Information about the samples that tested positive for EGFR mutations What is the number of cases that were POSITIVE FOR EGFR MUTATIONS in your laboratory from January December 2011? (Please type 'Not known' in the box if you do not know the answer) Squamous cases are also non adenocarcinoma cases. If the data are available, please report here the number of patients who are both non adenocarcinoma AND squamous cases TOTAL number of samples that were positive for EGFR mutations during January December 2011 Number of EGFR mutation positive adenocarcinoma cases Number EGFR mutation positive non adenocarcinoma cases Number of EGFR mutation positive squamous cell carcinoma cases Number of EGFR mutation positive male patients Number of EGFR mutation positive female patients Number of EGFR mutation positive current/ex smoker patients Number of EGFR mutation positive never smoker patients Number of EGFR mutation positive biopsy and/or cytology samples Number of EGFR mutation positive surgical specimen samples What is the total number of cases tested where the test failed or did not yield a clear result and the EGFR mutation status was judged to be undetermined? (Please type 'Not known' in the box if you do not know the answer) Total number of undetermined cases Page 10

11 11. Information about sample processing How often is IHC used to predict the subtypes of samples with poorly differentiated morphology? Routinely (regularly, or on a daily basis) Occasionally (every now and then, not often) Not known Do you receive a copy of the pathology report issued for the EGFR mutation testing sample when it arrives at your laboratory? Yes Sometimes No If you receive a copy of the pathology report with the sample, does information on the percentage tumour content or other assessment of sample quality accompany the sample to the testing lab? Yes Sometimes No Page 11

12 12. Information about EGFR mutation testing methods used in your laboratory You will now be asked which EGFR mutation testing methods you most commonly use for TISSUE samples, and then which methods you most commonly use for CYTOLOGY samples.
