A phase 1, open-label, dose-escalation trial of oral TSR-011 in patients with advanced solid tumours and lymphomas.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene rearrangements are oncogenic drivers in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). TSR-011 is a dual ALK and tropomyosin-related kinase (TRK) inhibitor, active against ALK inhibitor resistant tumours in preclinical studies. Here, we report the safety, tolerability and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of TSR-011 in patients with relapsed or refractory ALK- and TRK-positive advanced cancers.

Methods

In this sequential, open-label, phase 1 trial (NCT02048488), patients received doses of 30 mg, escalated to 480 mg every 24 hours (Q24h), followed by an expansion cohort of patients with ALK-positive cancers. The primary objective was to evaluate safety and tolerability. Secondary objectives included pharmacokinetics.

Results

TSR-011 320- and 480-mg Q24h doses exceeded the maximum tolerated dose. At the RP2D of 40 mg every 8 hours (Q8h), the most common grade 3-4 treatment-emergent adverse events occurred in 3.2-6.5% of patients. Of 14 ALK inhibitor-naive patients with ALK-positive NSCLC, 6 experienced partial responses and 8 had stable disease.

Conclusions

At the RP2D (40 mg Q8h), TSR-011 demonstrated a favourable safety profile with acceptable QTc changes. Limited clinical activity was observed. Based on the competitive ALK inhibitor landscape and benefit/risk considerations, further TSR-011 development was discontinued.

Project description:BackgroundNTRK1, NTRK2 and NTRK3 gene fusions (NTRK gene fusions) occur in a range of adult cancers. Larotrectinib is a potent and highly selective ATP-competitive inhibitor of TRK kinases and has demonstrated activity in patients with tumours harbouring NTRK gene fusions.Patients and methodsThis multi-centre, phase I dose escalation study enrolled adults with metastatic solid tumours, regardless of NTRK gene fusion status. Key inclusion criteria included evaluable and/or measurable disease, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0-2, and adequate organ function. Larotrectinib was administered orally once or twice daily, on a continuous 28-day schedule, in increasing dose levels according to a standard 3 + 3 dose escalation scheme. The primary end point was the safety of larotrectinib, including dose-limiting toxicity.ResultsSeventy patients (8 with tumours with NTRK gene fusions; 62 with tumours without a documented NTRK gene fusion) were enrolled to 6 dose cohorts. There were four dose-limiting toxicities; none led to study drug discontinuation. The maximum tolerated dose was not reached. Larotrectinib-related adverse events were predominantly grade 1; none were grade 4 or 5. The most common grade 3 larotrectinib-related adverse event was anaemia [4 (6%) of 70 patients]. A dose of 100 mg twice daily was recommended for phase II studies based on tolerability and antitumour activity. In patients with evaluable TRK fusion cancer, the objective response rate by independent review was 100% (eight of the eight patients). Eight (12%) of the 67 assessable patients overall had an objective response by investigator assessment. Median duration of response was not reached. Larotrectinib had limited activity in tumours with NTRK mutations or amplifications. Pharmacokinetic analysis showed exposure was generally proportional to administered dose.ConclusionsLarotrectinib was well tolerated, demonstrated activity in all patients with tumours harbouring NTRK gene fusions, and represents a new treatment option for such patients.Clincaltrials.gov numberNCT02122913.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough the antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) have significantly improved the survival outcomes of patients with human epidermal receptor 2 (HER2)-expressing gastric or gastroesophageal junction (G/GEJ) cancer, the efficacy of ADC used as a single agent is limited. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate effective and safe combination regimens. Preclinical data indicated a synergetic antitumour effect of RC48 and programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) inhibitors. We aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of RC48 plus toripalimab in patients with HER2-expressing G/GEJ cancer and other solid tumours.MethodsThis was a open-label, multicentre, phase 1 trial performed at three hospitals in China. Eligible patients had advanced G/GEJ cancer or other solid tumours with HER2 IHC≥1 or ISH positivity and were refractory to at least one line of treatment, or standard treatment was intolerable or unavailable for these patients. This study followed a "3 + 3" design with predefined RC48 dosages of 2.0 mg/kg and 2.5 mg/kg plus toripalimab 3 mg/kg, once every 2 weeks (q2w). The primary objectives were to evaluate the safety and determine the recommended phase II dose (RP2D), and the secondary objectives included assessing the pharmacokinetics (PK) and preliminary efficacy. This study was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04280341.FindingsBetween July 13, 2020 and August 30, 2022, 56 patients, including 30 patients with G/GEJ cancer and 26 patients with other solid tumours, were enrolled and received RC48 plus toripalimab (n = 7 for RC48 2.0 mg/kg, toripalimab 3 mg/kg, q2w; n = 49 for RC48 2.5 mg/kg, toripalimab 3 mg/kg, q2w). No dose-limiting toxic effects occurred. The RP2D was declared as RC48 2.5 mg/kg plus toripalimab 3 mg/kg, q2w. The most common grade 3 adverse events were a decreased neutrophil count (n = 13), and a decreased white blood cell count (n = 7). The efficacy assessment was completed for 52 patients. Among patients with G/GEJ cancer (n = 30), the confirmed objective response rate (ORR) was 43% (12/28, 95% CI 25, 63), median progression-free survival (PFS) was 6.2 months (95% CI 4.0, 6.9), median overall survival (OS) was 16.8 months (95% CI 7.2, NE). The ORR of patients with G/GEJ cancer receiving RP2D (n = 24) reached 50% (11/22, 95% CI 28, 72), with median PFS of 5.1 months (95% CI 1.4, 7.3) and median OS of 14.0 months (95% CI 6.3, NE). Among patients with G/GEJ cancer who received RP2D, a clinical benefit was observed in both HER2-positive and low HER2 expressing populations, with an ORR of 56% (5/9, 95% CI 21, 86) vs. 46% (6/13, 95% CI 19, 75), median PFS of 7.8 months (95% CI 0.9, NE) vs. 5.1 months (95% CI 1.2, 6.9), median OS of NE months (95% CI 4.3, NE) vs. 14.0 months (95% CI 5.1, NE), respectively. Antitumour activity was also observed for other solid tumours, including breast cancer (5/13) and endometrial carcinoma (1/1).InterpretationOur findings suggested that RC48 plus toripalimab had a manageable safety profile and showed encouraging efficacy in pretreated patients with HER2-positive and low HER2-expressing G/GEJ cancer. The findings of our phase 1 clinical trial support further investigation of HER2-targeted ADC plus immunotherapy in HER2-expressing G/GEJ cancer and pancancer treatment in the future.FundingBeijing Municipal Medical Research Institutes, Beijing Medical Research Institute (Z200015).

Project description:PurposeLifirafenib is an investigational, reversible inhibitor of B-RAFV600E, wild-type A-RAF, B-RAF, C-RAF, and EGFR. This first-in-human, phase I, dose-escalation/dose-expansion study evaluated the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of lifirafenib in patients with B-RAF- or K-RAS/N-RAS-mutated solid tumors.MethodsDuring dose escalation, adult patients with histologically/cytologically confirmed advanced solid tumors received escalating doses of lifirafenib. Primary end points were safety/tolerability during dose escalation and objective response rate in preselected patients with B-RAF and K-RAS/N-RAS mutations during dose expansion.ResultsThe maximum tolerated dose was established as 40 mg/d; dose-limiting toxicities included reversible thrombocytopenia and nonhematologic toxicity. Across the entire study, the most common grade ≥ 3 treatment-emergent adverse events were hypertension (n = 23; 17.6%) and fatigue (n = 13; 9.9%). One patient with B-RAF-mutated melanoma achieved complete response, and 8 patients with B-RAF mutations had confirmed objective responses: B-RAFV600E/K melanoma (n = 5, including 1 patient treated with prior B-RAF/MEK inhibitor therapy), B-RAFV600E thyroid cancer/papillary thyroid cancer (PTC; n = 2), and B-RAFV600E low-grade serous ovarian cancer (LGSOC; n = 1). One patient with B-RAF-mutated non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) had unconfirmed partial response (PR). Patients with K-RAS-mutated endometrial cancer and K-RAS codon 12-mutated NSCLC had confirmed PR (n = 1 each). No responses were seen in patients with K-RAS/N-RAS-mutated colorectal cancer (n = 20).ConclusionLifirafenib is a novel inhibitor of key RAF family kinases and EGFR, with an acceptable risk-benefit profile and antitumor activity in patients with B-RAFV600-mutated solid tumors, including melanoma, PTC, and LGSOC, as well as K-RAS-mutated NSCLC and endometrial carcinoma. Future comparisons with first-generation B-RAF inhibitors and exploration of lifirafenib alone or as combination therapy in patients with selected RAS mutations who are resistant/refractory to first-generation B-RAF inhibitors are warranted.
