BACKGROUND: Pediatric-type diffuse high-grade glioma (pHGG) is the most frequent malignant brain tumor in children and can be subclassified into multiple entities. Fusion genes activating the MET receptor tyrosine kinase often occur in infant-type hemispheric glioma (IHG) but also in other pHGG and are associated with devastating morbidity and mortality. METHODS: To identify new treatment options, we established and characterized two novel orthotopic mouse models harboring distinct MET fusions. These included an immunocompetent, murine allograft model and patient-derived orthotopic xenografts (PDOX) from a MET-fusion IHG patient who failed conventional therapy and targeted therapy with cabozantinib. With these models, we analyzed the efficacy and pharmacokinetic properties of three MET inhibitors, capmatinib, crizotinib and cabozantinib, alone or combined with radiotherapy. RESULTS: Capmatinib showed superior brain pharmacokinetic properties and greater in vitro and in vivo efficacy than cabozantinib or crizotinib in both models. The PDOX models recapitulated the poor efficacy of cabozantinib experienced by the patient. In contrast, capmatinib extended survival and induced long-term progression-free survival when combined with radiotherapy in two complementary mouse models. Capmatinib treatment increased radiation-induced DNA double-strand breaks and delayed their repair. CONCLUSIONS: We comprehensively investigated the combination of MET inhibition and radiotherapy as a novel treatment option for MET-driven pHGG. Our seminal preclinical data package includes pharmacokinetic characterization, recapitulation of clinical outcomes, coinciding results from multiple complementing in vivo studies, and insights into molecular mechanism underlying increased efficacy. Taken together, we demonstrate the groundbreaking efficacy of capmatinib and radiation as a highly promising concept for future clinical trials.

Pharmacogenomic experiments allow for the systematic testing of drugs, at varying dosage concentrations, to study how genomic markers correlate with cell sensitivity to treatment. The first step in the analysis is to quantify the response of cell lines to variable dosage concentrations of the drugs being tested. The signal to noise in these measurements can be low due to biological and experimental variability. However, the increasing availability of pharmacogenomic studies provides replicated data sets that can be leveraged to gain power. To do this, we formulate a hierarchical mixture model to estimate the drug-specific mixture distributions for estimating cell sensitivity and for assessing drug effect type as either broad or targeted effect. We use this formulation to propose a unified approach that can yield posterior probability of a cell being susceptible to a drug conditional on being a targeted effect or relative effect sizes conditioned on the cell being broad. We demonstrate the usefulness of our approach via case studies. First, we assess pairwise agreements for cell lines/drugs within the intersection of two data sets and confirm the moderate pairwise agreement between many publicly available pharmacogenomic data sets. We then present an analysis that identifies sensitivity to the drug crizotinib for cells harboring EML4-ALK or NPM1-ALK gene fusions, as well as significantly down-regulated cell-matrix pathways associated with crizotinib sensitivity.

INTRODUCTION: The study of resistance-causing mutations in oncogene-driven tumors is fundamental to guide clinical decisions. Several point mutations affecting the ROS1 kinase domain have been identified in the clinical setting, but their impact requires further exploration, particularly in improved pre-clinical models. Given the scarcity of solid pre-clinical models to approach rare cancer subtypes like ROS1 + NSCLC, CRISPR/Cas9 technology allows the introduction of mutations in patient-derived cell lines for which resistant variants are difficult to obtain due to the low prevalence of cases within the clinical setting. METHODS: In the SLC34A2-ROS1 rearranged NSCLC cell line HCC78, we knocked-in through CRISPR/Cas9 technology three ROS1 drug resistance-causing mutations: G2032R, L2026M and S1986Y. Such variants are located in different functional regions of the ROS1 kinase domain, thus conferring TKI resistance through distinct mechanisms. We then performed pharmacological assays in 2D and 3D to assess the cellular response of the mutant lines to crizotinib, entrectinib, lorlatinib, repotrectinib and ceritinib. In addition, immunoblotting assays were performed in 2D-treated cell lines to determine ROS1 phosphorylation and MAP kinase pathway activity. The area over the curve (AOC) defined by the normalized growth rate (NGR_fit) dose-response curves was the variable used to quantify the cellular response towards TKIs. RESULTS: Spheroids derived from ROS1G2032R cells were significantly more resistant to repotrectinib (AOC fold change = - 7.33), lorlatinib (AOC fold change = - 6.17), ceritinib (AOC fold change = - 2.8) and entrectinib (AOC fold change = - 2.02) than wild type cells. The same cells cultured as a monolayer reflected the inefficacy of crizotinib (AOC fold change = - 2.35), entrectinib (AOC fold change = - 2.44) and ceritinib (AOC fold change = - 2.12) in targeting the ROS1 G2032R mutation. ROS1L2026M cells showed also remarkable resistance both in monolayer and spheroid culture compared to wild type cells, particularly against repotrectinib (spheroid AOC fold change = - 2.19) and entrectinib (spheroid AOC fold change = - 1.98). ROS1S1986Y cells were resistant only towards crizotinib in 2D (AOC fold change = - 1.86). Overall, spheroids showed an increased TKI sensitivity compared to 2D cultures, where the impact of each mutation that confers TKI resistance could be clearly distinguished. Western blotting assays qualitatively reflected the patterns of response towards TKI observed in 2D culture through the levels of phosphorylated-ROS1. However, we observed a dose-response increase of phosphorylated-Erk1/2, suggesting the involvement of the MAPK pathway in the mediation of apoptosis in HCC78 cells. CONCLUSION: In this study we knock-in for the first time in a ROS1 + patient-derived cell line, three different known resistance-causing mutations using CRISPR/Cas9 in the endogenous translocated ROS1 alleles. Pharmacological assays performed in 2D and 3D cell culture revealed that spheroids are more sensitive to TKIs than cells cultured as a monolayer. This direct comparison between two culture systems could be done thanks to the implementation of normalized growth rates (NGR) to uniformly quantify drug response between 2D and 3D cell culture. Overall, this study presents the added value of using spheroids and positions lorlatinib and repotrectinib as the most effective TKIs against the studied ROS1 resistance point mutations.

BACKGROUND: In the era of second-generation ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitors (ALK-TKIs), there was a paucity of data regarding the progression patterns, resistant mechanisms, and subsequent therapeutic approaches for ALK-positive (ALK+) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS: Patients with advanced ALK+ NSCLC were retrospectively selected from our center. Cohort 1 consisted of patients who experienced disease progression after receiving first-line alectinib treatment (n = 20), while Cohort 2 included patients who progressed following sequential treatment with crizotinib and second-generation ALK-TKIs (n = 53). Oligo-progression was defined as the occurrence of disease progression in no more than three lesions. Symptomatic progression was determined when patients developed new symptoms or experienced worsening of pre-existing symptoms during radiological progression. RESULTS: The incidence of central nervous system (CNS) progression and symptomatic CNS progression was significantly lower in Cohort 1 compared to patients treated with crizotinib, with rates of 15.0% vs. 56.6% (p = 0.002) and 5.0% vs. 32.1% (p = 0.016), respectively. A total of 60.3% (44/73) patients underwent repeated biopsy and next-generation sequencing subsequent to the second-generation ALK-TKI resistance, with secondary mutation in ALK kinase domain emerging as the predominant mechanism of resistance (56.8%). Local therapy was applied to 50% of oligo-progression cases. Subsequent ALK-TKIs demonstrated significantly prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) (8.6 m vs. 2.7 m, p = 0.021, HR = 0.43, 95%CI: 0.15-0.85) and long-term overall survival (OS) (NA vs. 11.9 m, p = 0.132, HR = 0.50, 95%CI: 0.18-1.25) in patients harboring ALK resistance mutations, compared to those without such mutations. For patients without ALK-resistant mutations following progression on second-generation ALK-TKIs, there was no statistically significant difference in survival outcomes between subsequent chemotherapy or alternative ALK-TKI treatments. CONCLUSIONS: First-line alectinib demonstrated superior efficacy in protecting the CNS compared to crizotinib. For patients with ALK-resistant mutations following the resistance to second-generation ALK-TKIs, appropriate sensitive ALK-TKI should be administered; for those without such mutations, the selection of chemotherapy or third-generation ALK-TKI should be based on the patient's overall physical health and personal preferences.

BACKGROUND: ROS1 fusion-positive (ROS1+) nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients are highly sensitive to tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatments. However, acquired TKI resistance remains the major hurdle preventing patients from experiencing prolonged benefits. METHODS: 107 advanced or metastatic ROS1+ NSCLC patients who progressed on crizotinib and lorlatinib were recruited. Tissue and plasma samples were collected at baseline (N = 50), postcrizotinib (N = 91), and postlorlatinib (N = 21), which were all subject to the 139-gene targeted next-generation DNA sequencing. Molecular dynamics modeling was performed to investigate the effects of ROS1 mutations on binding to different TKIs. RESULTS: In patients with postcrizotinib and postlorlatinib samples, an accumulation of on- and off-target resistance alterations after multiple TKI treatments was observed. ROS1 G2032R and MET amplification were the most common on-target and off-target alterations, respectively. Patients with CD74-ROS1 and SLC34A2-ROS1 had longer progression-free survival (PFS) (P < 0.001) and higher rates of resistance mutations (on-target, P = 0.001; off-target, P = 0.077) than other ROS1 fusion variants following crizotinib treatment. Ten distinct on-target resistance mutations were detected after TKI therapies, of which 4 were previously unreported (ROS1 L2010M, G1957A, D1988N, L1982V). Molecular dynamics simulations showed that all 4 mutations were refractory to crizotinib, while G1957A, D1988N, and L1982V were potentially sensitive to lorlatinib and entrectinib. CONCLUSIONS: This study provided a comprehensive portrait of TKI-resistance mechanisms in ROS1+ NSCLC patients. Using in silico simulations of TKI activity, novel secondary mutations that may confer TKI resistance were identified and may support clinical therapeutic decision-making.

Anaplastic large cell lymphomas (ALCLs) frequently carry oncogenic fusions involving the anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) gene. Targeting ALK using tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) is a therapeutic option in cases relapsed after chemotherapy, but TKI resistance may develop. By applying genomic loss-of-function screens, we identified PTPN1 and PTPN2 phosphatases as consistent top hits driving resistance to ALK TKIs in ALK+ ALCL. Loss of either PTPN1 or PTPN2 induced resistance to ALK TKIs in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that PTPN1 and PTPN2 are phosphatases that bind to and regulate ALK phosphorylation and activity. In turn, oncogenic ALK and STAT3 repress PTPN1 transcription. We found that PTPN1 is also a phosphatase for SHP2, a key mediator of oncogenic ALK signaling. Downstream signaling analysis showed that deletion of PTPN1 or PTPN2 induces resistance to crizotinib by hyperactivating SHP2, the MAPK, and JAK/STAT pathways. RNA sequencing of patient samples that developed resistance to ALK TKIs showed downregulation of PTPN1 and PTPN2 associated with upregulation of SHP2 expression. Combination of crizotinib with a SHP2 inhibitor synergistically inhibited the growth of wild-type or PTPN1/PTPN2 knock-out ALCL, where it reverted TKI resistance. Thus, we identified PTPN1 and PTPN2 as ALK phosphatases that control sensitivity to ALK TKIs in ALCL and demonstrated that a combined blockade of SHP2 potentiates the efficacy of ALK inhibition in TKI-sensitive and -resistant ALK+ ALCL.

To elucidate the impact of CYP3A4 activity inhibition and genetic polymorphism on the metabolism of crizotinib. Enzymatic incubation systems for crizotinib were established, and Sprague-Dawley rats were utilized for in vivo experiments. Analytes were quantified using LC-MS/MS. Upon screening 122 drugs and natural compounds, proanthocyanidins emerged as inhibitor of crizotinib metabolism, exhibiting a relative inhibition rate of 93.7%. The IC50 values were 24.53 ± 0.32 µM in rat liver microsomes and 18.24 ± 0.12 µM in human liver microsomes. In vivo studies revealed that proanthocyanidins markedly affected the pharmacokinetic parameters of crizotinib. Co-administration led to a significant reduction in the AUC(0-t), Cmax of PF-06260182 (the primary metabolite of crizotinib), and the urinary metabolic ratio. This interaction is attributed to the mixed-type inhibition of liver microsome activity by proanthocyanidins. CYP3A4, being the principal metabolic enzyme for crizotinib, has its genetic polymorphisms significantly influencing crizotinib's pharmacokinetics. Kinetic data showed that the relative metabolic rates of crizotinib across 26 CYP3A4 variants ranged from 13.14% (CYP3A4.12, 13) to 188.57% (CYP3A4.33) when compared to the wild-type CYP3A4.1. Additionally, the inhibitory effects of proanthocyanidins varied between CYP3A4.12 and CYP3A4.33, when compared to the wild type. Our findings indicate that proanthocyanidins coadministration and CYP3A4 genetic polymorphism can significantly influence crizotinib metabolism.

Receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) has emerged as a key regulator of cell death and inflammation, which are implicated in the pathogenesis of many inflammatory and degenerative diseases. RIPK1 is therefore a putative therapeutic target in many of these diseases. However, no pharmacological inhibitor of RIPK1-mediated cell death is currently in clinical use. Recognizing that a repurposed drug has an expedited clinical development pipeline, here we performed a high-throughput drug screen of Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved compounds and identified a novel use for crizotinib as an inhibitor of RIPK1-dependent cell death. Furthermore, crizotinib rescued TNF-α-induced death in mice with systemic inflammatory response syndrome. RIPK1 kinase activity was directly inhibited by crizotinib. These findings identify a new use for an established compound and are expected to accelerate drug development for RIPK1-spectrum disorders.

OBJECTIVES: To compare the efficacy, safety and effects on quality of life of different ALK-inhibitors for global and Asian patients with advanced ALK-positive non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS: The included RCTs were identified through a systematic search of PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Clinical Trials.gov, and major cancer conferences. The assessment of progression-free survival (PFS), intracranial PFS, overall survival (OS), and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) was carried out using restricted mean survival time (RMST) model, fractional polynomial model and Royston-Parmar model. Time-invariant hazard ratio (HR) models were also used to validate and supplement the primary analysis. Objective response rate (ORR) and adverse events with any grade, grade 3-5 were assessed through a Bayesian network meta-analysis. The primary measures for OS, PFS, and PROs were HR and RMST. The odds ratio was the metric for evaluating safety, ORR, 12-month PFS rate, 24-month OS rate, and the 12-month non-deterioration rate of PROs. Subgroup analyses based on patient characteristics were performed. RESULTS: A total of fourteen studies (ten for first-line, four for second-line) consisting of nine treatments (chemotherapy, crizotinib, alectinib [600mg BID], low-dose alectinib [300mg BID], brigatinib, ceritinib, ensartinib, envonalkib, and lorlatinib) were included. In the first-line setting, alectinib showed a significant advantage over crizotinib and had the longest OS among all ALK-inhibitors. Compared to crizotinib, lorlatinib had the best efficacy regarding PFS for global patients, followed closely by alectinib and brigatinib. For Asian patients, alectinib significantly improved PFS compared to other treatments. In second-line, alectinib had the highest PFS for patients pretreated with crizotinib, followed by brigatinib, ceritinib and chemotherapy. Alectinib, irrespective of the dose, was the safest first-line option, whereas lorlatinib, brigatinib, and ceritinib showed poorer safety profiles. Alectinib was also the safest ALK-inhibitor for crizotinib-resistant patients. Brigatinib had the best performance in terms of PROs. CONCLUSIONS: Considering both efficacy and safety, alectinib appears to be the preferable treatment in first-line and second-line, particularly for Asian patients.

OBJECTIVES: An earlier study from the ALTA-1L trial of patients with anaplastic lymphoma kinase-positive non-small cell lung cancer demonstrated that brigatinib produces superior health-related quality of life (QoL) outcomes over crizotinib. This study aimed to derive meaningful change thresholds (MCTs) for European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ)-C30 and EORTC QLQ-LC13 to refine the earlier results. METHODS: Patients from the ALTA-1L trial were administered the EORTC QLQ-C30 and EORTC QLQ-LC13 questionnaires. Responses were analyzed using anchor-based analysis, graphical analysis, distribution-based analysis, longitudinal responder analysis, and time to deterioration. RESULTS: The patient-reported outcome population comprised 262 patients who completed the EORTC QLQ-C30 at baseline and at least 1 follow-up timepoint. Both anchors (QLQ-C30 items for overall health and QoL) had correlations >0.40 or < -0.40 with all functioning domains, fatigue, pain, appetite loss, and all dyspnea scores. Within-group analysis for most scales found the derived MCT was consistent with a cutoff of 10 points for classifying individual-patient change, except for 3-item dyspnea. The probability of improvement/remaining stable was significantly greater in the brigatinib group over crizotinib for the EORTC QLQ-C30 emotional functioning, appetite loss, and constipation domains. CONCLUSIONS: This study derived MCTs for EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-LC13 domains that may be applied in future studies and again demonstrated the superiority of brigatinib over crizotinib in health-related QoL outcomes in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

BACKGROUND: the study aims to evaluate whether high plasma trough levels of the kinase inhibitors (K.I.s) crizotinib, alectinib, osimertinib, dabrafenib, and trametinib were associated with a higher risk of toxicity in non-small-cell lung cancer patients. METHODS: In this retrospective cohort study, patients with non-small-cell lung cancer treated with the selected K.I.s were included if at least one plasma trough level at steady state (C min,ss ) was available. Data were extracted from electronic medical records and laboratory databases. The high group for each K.I. was defined as 10% of patients with the highest first C min,ss . The remaining patients were placed in the non-high group. The frequency of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs), defined as adverse events leading to dose reduction, dose interruption, or permanent discontinuation, was compared between the 2 groups. RESULTS: A total of 542 patients were included in the different K.I. groups. A high C min,ss of crizotinib (n = 96), alectinib (n = 105), osimertinib (n = 227), dabrafenib (n = 52), and trametinib (n = 62) correlated with a C min,ss ≥490, ≥870, ≥405, ≥150, and ≥25 ng/mL, respectively. DLTs were more common in the alectinib high group than in the alectinib non-high group (64% vs. 29%, P = 0.036). Liver toxicity was observed in 4 (36%) patients in the high group and 5 (5%) patients in the non-high group ( P = 0.007). For other K.I.s, no significant differences were observed in the frequency of DLTs between the high and non-high groups. CONCLUSIONS: For alectinib, high C min,ss was correlated with a higher risk of DLT. No differences in the frequency of DLTs were observed between the high and non-high groups for crizotinib, osimertinib, dabrafenib, and trametinib.

BACKGROUND: Alterations in the ALK (anaplastic lymphoma kinase) gene play a critical role in pathogenesis of anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL). Crizotinib is a small molecule competitive inhibitor of ALK, ROS1, and MET kinases and was approved for pediatric patients with ALK-positive relapsed or refractory, systemic ALCL, and ALK-positive unresectable, recurrent, or refractory inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors (IMT). PROCEDURE: Crizotinib data from pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors, IMT, or ALCL were included in the analyses. All patients received crizotinib orally at doses ranging from 100 to 365 mg/m2 twice daily (BID). PopPK analyses were conducted to characterize crizotinib disposition in pediatric patients. Exposure-response (ER) safety and antitumor analyses were conducted to characterize relationships between crizotinib dose or exposure with safety and antitumor activity endpoints of interest. RESULTS: The population pharmacokinetic (popPK), ER safety, and ER antitumor analysis included 98, 110, and 36 pediatric patients, respectively. A one-compartment pharmacokinetic model with allometric scaling, first-order elimination, and first-order absorption with lag time adequately described the data. Natural log-transformed model-predicted crizotinib AUCss (steady-state area under the concentration-time curve) demonstrated a significant, positive relationship with Grade ≥3 NEUTROPENIA and Any Grade VISION DISORDER. Crizotinib dose demonstrated a positive relationship with objective response rate. CONCLUSIONS: No significant differences in PK were identified across a wide range of ages or across tumor types, suggesting body surface area (BSA)-based dosing adequately adjusted for differences in patient size to achieve similar systemic crizotinib exposures across young children and adolescent pediatric patients. None of the myelosuppressive events except Grade ≥3 NEUTROPENIA had significant relationships identified with crizotinib dose or exposure, suggesting crizotinib is a tolerable treatment with less hematological toxicity than traditional chemotherapy regimens for pediatric patients with ALK-mutated cancers. Results from the presented analyses support the pediatric dosing recommendations in the product label.

INTRODUCTION: To introduce a drug to the market, it's not mandatory for it to be more effective and safer than the current treatment for the same condition. Consequently, head-to-head studies between the two best treatments for the same condition are not required, and this could result in a lack of information for patients, clinicians, and decision-makers. This study aims to evaluate the presence of head-to-head studies among the drugs used for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS: Taking into account the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines updated to 2022, which list all available treatments for each NSCLC subtype, the search engine Pubmed and the platform clinicaltrials.gov were consulted to find all completed and ongoing head-to-head studies among various treatments for NSCLC. RESULTS: Among the anti-EGFR (epidermal growth factor receptor) drugs, 7 studies were found, with 6 completed and 5 registrational for drug commercialisation. No completed study to date has compared osimertinib and afatinib. For anti-ALK (anaplastic lymphoma kinase) drugs, 7 studies were found, with 5 completed. Alectinib, brigatinib, and lorlatinib have no completed comparison studies, but all were compared with crizotinib. Among various immunotherapy-based regimens, 5 studies were found, with only 1 completed. Therapeutic regimens based on pembrolizumab, atezolizumab, or the combination of nivolumab/ipilimumab have not been compared in studies published to date. CONCLUSION: There are few head-to-head studies comparing treatments for NSCLC; there are no such studies between the latest generation of drugs. Consequently, ambiguous areas exist due to the lack of comparative studies among the available evidence, preventing the clinician's choice of the most effective treatment and risking the patient receiving suboptimal therapy. Simultaneously, the price of the drug cannot be determined correctly, relying only on indirect evaluations from different trials. To dispel this uncertainty, it would be desirable to initiate a process that brings together the demands derived from clinical practice and clinical research to provide clinicians and patients with the best possible evidence.

Anaplastic lymphoma kinase ( ALK )-fusion sarcomas are rare part of the emerging theoretically targetable tyrosine kinase RAS::MAPK pathway fusion myopericytic-ovoid sarcomas. We report our clinicopathologic and treatment experience with an ALK fusion sarcoma. A novel ELKS/RAB6-interacting/CAST family member 1 - unaligned ALK fusion infiltrative nonmetastatic low-grade sarcoma of the right hand of a 15-month-old male was treated with crizotinib, an ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitor as oral monotherapy, inducing complete radiographic and clinical resolution by 10 months and sustained response now over 12 months after elective discontinuation. Crizotinib can successfully be used to treat unresectable novel ALK fusion sarcomas.

Although ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitors (ALK-TKIs) have shown remarkable benefits in EML4-ALK positive NSCLC patients compared to conventional chemotherapy, the optimal sequence of ALK-TKIs treatment remains unclear due to the emergence of primary and acquired resistance and the lack of potential prognostic biomarkers. In this study, we systematically explored the validity of sequential ALK inhibitors (alectinib, lorlatinib, crizotinib, ceritinib and brigatinib) for a heavy-treated patient with EML4-ALK fusion via developing an in vitro and in vivo drug testing system based on patient-derived models. Based on the patient-derived models and clinical responses of the patient, we found that crizotinib might inhibit proliferation of EML4-ALK positive tumors resistant to alectinib and lorlatinib. In addition, NSCLC patients harboring the G1269A mutation, which was identified in alectinib, lorlatinib and crizotinib-resistant NSCLC, showed responsiveness to brigatinib and ceritinib. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that brigatinib suppressed the activation of multiple inflammatory signaling pathways, potentially contributing to its anti-tumor activity. Moreover, we constructed a prognostic model based on the expression of IL6, CXCL1, and CXCL5, providing novel perspectives for predicting prognosis in EML4-ALK positive NSCLC patients. In summary, our results delineate clinical responses of sequential ALK-TKIs treatments and provide insights into the mechanisms underlying the superior effects of brigatinib in patients harboring ALKG1269A mutation and resistant towards alectinib, lorlatinib and crizotinib. The molecular signatures model based on the combination of IL6, CXCL1 and CXCL5 has the potential to predict prognosis of EML4-ALK positive NSCLC patients.

BACKGROUND: MET exon 14 skipping mutations occur in 3-4% and MET high amplifications occur in < 1% of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Crizotinib, a selective ATP-competitive small-molecule inhibitor of c-Met, ALK, and ROS1 tyrosine kinases, has shown activity in cancer models with various types of MET activation. METHODS: The Co-MET study is a single-arm phase 2 trial to assess the safety and efficacy of crizotinib in MET inhibitor-naïve patients with advanced NSCLC harboring MET exon 14 skipping mutation (cohort 1) or high MET gene copy number of ≥ 7 (cohort 2). The primary endpoint was the objective response rate (ORR) per RECIST v1.1 by independent radiology review in cohort 1. The key secondary endpoints were the duration of response (DoR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety. RESULTS: A total of 28 patients (23 in cohort 1 and 5 in cohort 2) were enrolled between March 2018 and February 2020. The primary endpoint was met as the ORR (90% confidence interval: CI) in cohort 1 was 38.1% (20.6-58.3). Median DoR, PFS, and OS (95% CI) were 7.6 (1.9-NE), 5.7 (2.1-11.3), 9.1 (4.0-19.9) months, respectively, in cohort 1. ORR in cohort 2 was 40.0% (18.9-92.4). The safety signals were generally consistent with the known safety profile of crizotinib. CONCLUSIONS: Crizotinib showed a clinical activity similar to that of tepotinib and capmatinib in patients with NSCLC harboring MET exon 14 skipping mutations.

We present the case of a 70-year-old never-smoking female patient with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) p.L858R-mutated metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). After three months of first-line treatment with erlotinib, progression occurred and platinum/pemetrexed was initiated, followed by a response for more than two years. After the progression, the molecular testing of a vertebral metastasis revealed a ROS proto-oncogene 1 (ROS1) translocation and a human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) p.S310F mutation, in addition to the known EGFR p.L858R mutation. Crizotinib then led to a durable response of 17 months. The molecular retesting of the tumour cells obtained from the recurrent pleural effusion revealed the absence of the ROS1 translocation, whereas the EGFR and HER2 mutations were still present. Afatinib was added to the crizotinib, and the combination treatment resulted in another durable response of more than two years. The patient died more than 7 years after the initial diagnosis of metastatic NSCLC. This case demonstrates that the repeated molecular testing of metastatic NSCLC may identify new druggable genomic alterations that can impact the patient management and improve the patient outcome.

Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is one of the deadliest human cancers and represents <2% of thyroid carcinomas. A therapeutic target for ATC is represented by anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) rearrangements, involved in tumor growth. Crizotinib is an oral small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor of the ALK, MET, and ROS1 kinases, approved in ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer. Until now, the effect of crizotinib in "primary human ATC cells" (pATCs) with transforming striatin (STRN)-ALK fusion has not been reported in the literature. In this study, we aimed to obtain pATCs with STRN-ALK in vitro and evaluate the in vitro antineoplastic action of crizotinib. Thyroid surgical samples were obtained from 12 ATC patients and 6 controls (who had undergone parathyroidectomy). A total of 10/12 pATC cultures were obtained, 2 of which with transforming STRN-ALK fusion (17%). Crizotinib inhibited proliferation, migration, and invasion and increased apoptosis in 3/10 pATC cultures (2 of which with/1 without STRN-ALK), particularly in those with STRN-ALK. Moreover, crizotinib significantly inhibited the proliferation of AF cells (a continuous cell line obtained from primary ATC cells). In conclusion, the antineoplastic activity of crizotinib has been shown in human pATCs (with STRN-ALK) in preclinical studies in vitro, opening the way to future clinical evaluation in these patients.

Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) fusion gene is one of the most common driver gene in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Epidemiological data showed that ALK gene fusion is detected in 9.06% of Chinese advanced NSCLC patients. ALK-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have become the standard treatment for advanced NSCLC patients with ALK gene fusion. Seven different ALK-TKIs have been approved by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) of China, including crizotinib, ceritinib, alectinib, ensartinib, brigatinib, lorlatinib, and iruplinalkib. Iruplinalkib is a novel new-generation ALK-TKI independently developed in China. On June 27, 2023, the NMPA approved iruplinalkib for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic ALK-positive NSCLC patients whose disease has progressed after previous treatment with crizotinib or who are intolerant to crizotinib. On January 16, 2024, the NMPA approved iruplinalkib for the first-line treatment of locally advanced or metastatic ALK-positive NSCLC patients. In order to better understand the efficacy and safety of iruplinalkib, and facilitate more rationally clinical application of iruplinalkib, the Medical Oncology Branch of China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care and the Chinese Association for Clinical Oncologists co-organized experts to compile the "Chinese expert consensus on iruplinalkib for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic ALK-positive non-small cell lung cancer (2024 edition)".
