The early-generation ROS1 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) that are approved for the treatment of fusion-positive non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) have antitumor activity, but resistance develops in tumors, and intracranial activity is suboptimal. Repotrectinib is a next-generation ROS1 TKI with preclinical activity against fusion-positive cancers, including those with resistance mutations such as G2032R.
In this registrational phase 1-2 trial, we assessed the efficacy and safety of repotrectinib in patients with advanced solid tumors, including fusion-positive NSCLC. The primary efficacy end point in the phase 2 trial was confirmed objective response; efficacy analyses included patients from phase 1 and phase 2. Duration of response, progression-free survival, and safety were secondary end points in phase 2.
On the basis of results from the phase 1 trial, the recommended phase 2 dose of repotrectinib was 160 mg daily for 14 days, followed by 160 mg twice daily. Response occurred in 56 of the 71 patients (79%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 68 to 88) with fusion-positive NSCLC who had not previously received a ROS1 TKI; the median duration of response was 34.1 months (95% CI, 25.6 to could not be estimated), and median progression-free survival was 35.7 months (95% CI, 27.4 to could not be estimated). Response occurred in 21 of the 56 patients (38%; 95% CI, 25 to 52) with fusion-positive NSCLC who had previously received one ROS1 TKI and had never received chemotherapy; the median duration of response was 14.8 months (95% CI, 7.6 to could not be estimated), and median progression-free survival was 9.0 months (95% CI, 6.8 to 19.6). Ten of the 17 patients (59%; 95% CI, 33 to 82) with the G2032R mutation had a response. A total of 426 patients received the phase 2 dose; the most common treatment-related adverse events were dizziness (in 58% of the patients), dysgeusia (in 50%), and paresthesia (in 30%), and 3% discontinued repotrectinib owing to treatment-related adverse events.
Repotrectinib had durable clinical activity in patients with fusion-positive NSCLC, regardless of whether they had previously received a ROS1 TKI. Adverse events were mainly of low grade and compatible with long-term administration.

已获批用于治疗融合阳性非小细胞肺癌(NSCLC)的第一代 ROS1 酪氨酸激酶抑制剂(TKI)具有抗肿瘤活性,但肿瘤会产生耐药性,且颅内活性不佳。Repotrectinib 是一种下一代 ROS1 TKI,具有针对融合阳性癌症的临床前活性,包括具有耐药突变(如 G2032R)的癌症。
在这项注册的 1-2 期试验中,我们评估了 repotrectinib 治疗晚期实体瘤患者的疗效和安全性,包括融合阳性 NSCLC 患者。2 期试验的主要疗效终点为确认的客观缓解;疗效分析包括来自 1 期和 2 期的患者。缓解持续时间、无进展生存期和安全性是 2 期的次要终点。
基于 1 期试验结果,推荐的 repotrectinib 2 期剂量为每日 160mg 连用 14 天,随后每日 160mg 分两次服用。在 71 例未接受过 ROS1 TKI 治疗的融合阳性 NSCLC 患者中,有 56 例(79%;95%置信区间 [CI],68 至 88)发生了应答;中位缓解持续时间为 34.1 个月(95%CI,25.6 至无法估计),中位无进展生存期为 35.7 个月(95%CI,27.4 至无法估计)。在 56 例接受过一种 ROS1 TKI 治疗且从未接受过化疗的融合阳性 NSCLC 患者中,有 21 例(38%;95%CI,25 至 52)发生应答;中位缓解持续时间为 14.8 个月(95%CI,7.6 至无法估计),中位无进展生存期为 9.0 个月(95%CI,6.8 至 19.6)。17 例携带 G2032R 突变的患者中有 10 例(59%;95%CI,33 至 82)有应答。共有 426 例患者接受了 2 期剂量治疗;最常见的与治疗相关的不良事件是头晕(58%的患者)、味觉障碍(50%)和感觉异常(30%),有 3%的患者因治疗相关的不良事件而停止使用 repotrectinib。
Repotrectinib 在融合阳性 NSCLC 患者中具有持久的临床活性,无论其是否接受过 ROS1 TKI 治疗。不良事件主要为低级别,与长期用药相符。(由 Turning Point Therapeutics 公司资助, Bristol Myers Squibb 全资子公司;TRIDENT-1 临床试验.gov 编号,NCT03093116。)
