    P2.01-15 - Phase II Single Arm Study of CABozantinib in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients with MET Deregulation (CABinMET) (ID 2637)

    • Abstract

    Background
    

    Mesenchymal-Epithelial Transition gene (MET) amplification and exon 14 skipping mutations are established oncogenic drivers in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), both occurring in about 4% of cases. In patients with MET amplified or mutated lung cancer, oral MET tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) showed promising activity. The American Food and Drug Administration has recently granted crizotinib a breakthrough therapy designation for MET exon 14 mutation positive NSCLC. Cabozantinib is a novel oral inhibitor of MET and other receptor tyrosine kinases that has shown preliminary activity in MET deregulated NSCLC patients pretreated with crizotinib, although definitive data on its therapeutic role are still missing.

    Method
    

    CABinMET (NCT03911193) is a phase II, single arm, multicenter study assessing the efficacy of cabozantinib in subject with MET amplification or MET exon 14 skipping mutation pretreated or not with MET inhibitors. The primary endpoint of the trial is overall response rate. Secondary efficacy endpoints are progression free survival, overall survival and disease control rate. Main inclusion criteria include histologically/cytologically confirmed diagnosis of advanced stage NSCLC, presence of MET exon 14 skipping mutation or MET amplification (MET/CEP7 ratio ≥2.2 on FISH analysis) on archival formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue or circulating tumor DNA, measurable disease, ECOG PS 0-1, at least 1 prior line of standard therapy, adequate organ function. Patients with co-existent driver events or with symptomatic brain metastases are excluded from the trial. Cabozantinib is administered orally at 60 mg once daily until disease progression, patient refusal or unacceptable toxicity. Disease is assessed every 8 weeks. Exploratory biomarker analyses are conducted on archival FFPE tumor tissue and on blood samples collected at baseline, at the time of the first disease assessment and at progression.

    Result
    

    The study is currently running in 9 Italian centers. Recruitment started in September 2018 and 6 of the planned 25 patients have been enrolled.

    Conclusion
    

    Enrollment will be completed in 24 months.
