Rearranged during transfection (RET) gene fusions are rare genetic drivers in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Selective RET-inhibitors such as selpercatinib have shown therapeutic activity in early clinical trials; however, their efficacy in the real-world setting is unknown.
A retrospective efficacy and safety analysis was performed on data from RET fusion-positive NSCLC patients who participated in a selpercatinib access program (named patient protocol) between August 2019 and January 2021.
Data from 50 patients with RET fusion-positive advanced NSCLC treated with selpercatinib at 27 centers in 12 countries was analyzed. Most patients were Non-Asian (90%), female (60%), never-smokers (74%), with a median age of 65 years (range, 38-89). 32% of the patients had known brain metastasis at the time of selpercatinib treatment. Overall, 13 patients were treatment-naïve, while 37 were pretreated with a median of three lines of therapy (range, 1-8). The objective response rate (ORR) was 68% [95% confidence interval (CI), 53-81] in the overall population. The disease control rate was 92%. The median progression-free survival was 15.6 months (95% CI, 8.8-22.4) after a median follow-up of 9 months. In patients with measurable brain metastases ( = 8) intracranial ORR reached 100%. In total, 88% of patients experienced treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs), a large majority of them being grade 1 or 2. The most common grade ⩾ 3 TRAEs were increased liver enzyme levels (in 10% of patients), prolonged QTc time (4%), abdominal pain (4%), hypertension (4%), and fatigue/asthenia (4%). None of patients discontinued selpercatinib treatment for safety reasons. No new safety concerns were observed, nor where there any treatment-related death.
In this real-world setting, the selective RET-inhibitor selpercatinib demonstrated durable systemic and intracranial antitumor activity in RET fusion-positive NSCLC and was well tolerated.
转染期间重排(RET)基因融合是非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)中罕见的基因驱动因素。选择性RET抑制剂如塞尔帕替尼在早期临床试验中已显示出治疗活性;然而,其在现实环境中的疗效尚不清楚。
对2019年8月至2021年1月期间参加塞尔帕替尼准入计划(名为患者方案)的RET融合阳性NSCLC患者的数据进行回顾性疗效和安全性分析。
分析了来自12个国家27个中心接受塞尔帕替尼治疗的50例RET融合阳性晚期NSCLC患者的数据。大多数患者为非亚洲人(90%),女性(60%),从不吸烟者(74%),中位年龄为65岁(范围38 - 89岁)。32%的患者在接受塞尔帕替尼治疗时已知有脑转移。总体而言,13例患者未接受过治疗,37例患者接受过预处理,中位治疗线数为三线(范围1 - 8线)。总体人群的客观缓解率(ORR)为68%[95%置信区间(CI),53 - 81]。疾病控制率为92%。中位随访9个月后,中位无进展生存期为15.6个月(95%CI,8.8 - 22.4)。在有可测量脑转移的患者(n = 8)中,颅内ORR达到100%。总共88%的患者经历了治疗相关不良事件(TRAEs),其中大多数为1级或2级。最常见的≥3级TRAEs为肝酶水平升高(10%的患者)、QTc时间延长(4%)、腹痛(4%)、高血压(4%)和疲劳/乏力(4%)。没有患者因安全原因停用塞尔帕替尼治疗。未观察到新的安全问题,也没有与治疗相关的死亡。
在这一现实环境中,选择性RET抑制剂塞尔帕替尼在RET融合阳性NSCLC中显示出持久的全身和颅内抗肿瘤活性,且耐受性良好。
