      Background

      Neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase (NTRK) gene fusions lead to the expression of chimeric TRK proteins with constitutively activated kinase function, conferring oncogenic potential across several tumour types. Entrectinib is a CNS-active, potent inhibitor of TRKA/B/C and ROS1. We present integrated efficacy and safety data for entrectinib in NTRK fusion-positive (NTRK-FP) solid tumours focusing on pts with NSCLC.

      Pts with locally advanced/metastatic NTRK-FP tumours (with or without baseline CNS disease) confirmed by nucleic acid-based methods, enrolled in global (>150 sites, 15 countries) phase 1/2 entrectinib trials (ALKA-372-001 [EudraCT 2012-000148-88], STARTRK-1 [NCT02097810], STARTRK-2 [NCT02568267]) were included. Disease burden was assessed per BICR using RECIST v1.1, after cycle 1 (4 wks) then every 8 wks. Primary endpoints: ORR, DOR by BICR. Secondary endpoints: PFS, OS, and safety.

      20c51b5f4e9aeb5334c90ff072e6f928 Results

      Outcomes in the total efficacy-evaluable population (n = 54; 10 tumour types, >19 histopathologies) are shown in the table; responses were seen in all tumour types, median PFS 11.2 mo. In the cohort of pts with NTRK-FP NSCLC (n = 10), BICR ORR was 70% (7/10). In NSCLC pts with CNS disease per investigator at baseline (n = 6), 4 had an intracranial response (2 complete, 2 partial); 1 had stable disease and 1 was not evaluable. In the safety population (68 pts with NTRK-FP solid tumors who received at least 1 dose of entrectinib), most treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were grade 1–2; grade 3: 32.4%, grade 4: 2.9%; no grade 5 TRAEs. TRAEs resulted in discontinuation in 4.4% and dose reduction in 39.7% of pts.

      fd69c5cf902969e6fb71d043085ddee6 Conclusions

      In this integrated analysis of global multicentre clinical trials, entrectinib was well tolerated and induced clinically meaningful, durable systemic and intracranial responses in pts with NTRK-FP solid tumours, including those with NSCLC. (Table).

      109O - Entrectinib in locally advanced or metastatic ROS1 fusion-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC): Integrated analysis of ALKA-372-001, STARTRK-1 and STARTRK-2 (ID 501)

      09:00 - 10:30  |  Author(s): Tom John

      Background

      Entrectinib is a potent ROS1 inhibitor (as well as TRKA/B/C), designed to effectively penetrate the central nervous system (CNS); brain metastases are common in patients (pts) with advanced ROS1 fusion-positive NSCLC. Entrectinib achieves therapeutic levels in the CNS with antitumour activity in multiple intracranial tumour models. We present updated integrated safety and efficacy data from three Phase 1/2 entrectinib studies (ALKA-372-001 [EudraCT 2012-000148-88], STARTRK-1 [NCT02097810], STARTRK-2 [NCT02568267]) in pts with locally advanced/metastatic ROS1 fusion-positive NSCLC.

      a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Methods

      The analysis included pts with ROS1 inhibitor-naïve NSCLC harbouring a ROS1 fusion identified via nucleic acid-based diagnostic platforms. The ROS1 safety-evaluable population included pts who received ≥1 dose of entrectinib; the integrated efficacy analysis included pts with at least 6 months of follow-up. Tumour assessments were done at wk 4 and then every 8 wks by blinded independent central review (BICR), using RECIST v1.1. Primary endpoints by BICR: overall response rate (ORR), duration of response (DOR). Key secondary endpoints: progression-free survival (PFS), safety. Additional endpoints: intracranial ORR (complete/partial response), DOR in pts with intracranial response, PFS in pts with or without baseline CNS disease.

      20c51b5f4e9aeb5334c90ff072e6f928 Results

      In the ROS1 safety-evaluable population (n = 134), at least one treatment-related AE (TRAE) of any grade was seen in 93% of pts. Pts with at least one TRAE by highest grade were: grade 1/2, 59%; grade 3, 31%; grade 4, 4%. There were no grade 5 TRAEs. TRAEs led to dose reduction or discontinuation in 34% and 5% of pts, respectively. Efficacy outcomes are summarised in the table.

      fd69c5cf902969e6fb71d043085ddee6 Conclusions

      Entrectinib is highly active in pts with ROS1 fusion-positive NSCLC, including pts with CNS disease. Entrectinib is well tolerated with a manageable safety profile.
