P3.13-04 - Lorlatinib in Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase and Proto-Oncogene Tyrosine-Protein Kinase ROS-Positive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (ID 14150)

- Abstract
Background
In this case series we present ten patients with anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-rearranged or ROS proto-oncogene 1 (ROS1)-rearranged non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with lorlatinib.

Lorlatinib is highly potent and selective third generation ALK and ROS1 tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) with known activity against most resistance mutations. In a phase 1 study, lorlatinib showed intracranial and systemic activity in ROS1-positive and ALK-positive patients with advanced NSCLC.
Thus far, we treated 6 ALK- and 4 ROS1-positive stage IV NSCLC patients with lorlatinib in a compassionate use program. Best response was complete remission in two of our patients. One ROS1-positive patient with CNS metastases has now ongoing complete response for 27 months; the other patient with a ALK-positive NSCLC with CNS metastasis has now been treated with lorlatinib for 16 months. Three patients showed a partial response with an ongoing progression free survival of respectively 3, 5 and 8 months. Two of our patients (one ALK-positive and one ROS1-positive NSCLC) showed progressive disease as best response. In three patients response data is not (yet) available. There were no significant side effect apart from hypercholesterolemia, which occurred in four of our patients.

Lorlatinib shows promise in the treatment of ROS1-positive and ALK-positive patients with advanced NSCLC.
