      Background
      Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) is a tyrosine kinase constitutively activated following chromosomal translocation in 3-7% of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). These patients usually respond to the ALK inhibitor crizotinib with a median duration of response around 10 months. CH5424802 is a more potent and specific ALK inhibitor that is being studied as a treatment for NSCLC patients with ALK gene rearrangement.

      Methods
      A phase 1 dose escalation study of CH5424802 was performed using 3+3 study design in NSCLC patients who failed crizotinib. The primary endpoint was dose limiting toxicity, and the secondary endpoints were efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetic (PK) analyses. Key eligibility criteria include prior progression on crizotinib, ECOG 0-2, adequate organ functions, confirmed ALK-rearrangement by an FDA approved test. Patients with symptomatic CNS metastases required treatment before participating. CH5424802 was administered orally at doses of 300, 460, 600, 760 and 900 mg BID until lack of clinical benefits. Intensive PK sampling was performed. Efficacy was assessed by RECIST criteria v1.1. Toxicities were evaluated by CTCAE v4.0.

      Results
      37 NSCLC patients who have failed crizotinib and chemotherapy were enrolled in the study from 6 US sites from May 2012 to May 2013. No DLTs were observed up to the highest dose tested (900 mg BID). Only 1 patient required dose modification due to grade 2 fatigue. The most common AEs were fatigue, CPK increase, myalgia, cough, ALT increased, peripheral edema and rash. Grade 3/4 AEs include GGT increase (n=3), neutrophil decrease (n=2), hypophosphatemia, hyperglycemia, syncope, renal failure and pericardial effusion (n=1 each), but no grade 3 nausea, vomit, diarrhea, edema were reported. Preliminary efficacy was observed with PR 48% and SD 34% by investigator assessment amongst the 30 evaluable patients (See Figure of Waterfall plot). Median progression-free survival has not been reached with 27 patients (73%) remaining on study as of June 10, 2013 (median duration 85 days, range 39-347+ days). CNS activity was observed and described in the companion abstract by Ou et al. CH5424802 single dose half-life was approximately 22 hr, AUC was dose-dependent from 300 to 600 mg BID following multiple doses with a potential plateau at doses higher than 600 mg BID based on available data.Figure 1

      Conclusion
      CH5424802 is a well-tolerated ALK inhibitor with no DLTs observed up to the highest dose tested in this study. Promising anti-tumor activity was observed in patients who have failed crizotinib.
