RESUMEN
Activating point mutations in the MET tyrosine kinase domain (TKD) are oncogenic in a subset of papillary renal cell carcinomas. Here, using comprehensive genomic profiling among >600,000 patients, we identify activating MET TKD point mutations as putative oncogenic driver across diverse cancers, with a frequency of â¼0.5%. The most common mutations in the MET TKD defined as oncogenic or likely oncogenic according to OncoKB resulted in amino acid substitutions at positions H1094, L1195, F1200, D1228, Y1230, M1250, and others. Preclinical modeling of these alterations confirmed their oncogenic potential and also demonstrated differential patterns of sensitivity to type I and type II MET inhibitors. Two patients with metastatic lung adenocarcinoma harboring MET TKD mutations (H1094Y, F1200I) and no other known oncogenic drivers achieved confirmed partial responses to a type I MET inhibitor. Activating MET TKD mutations occur in multiple malignancies and may confer clinical sensitivity to currently available MET inhibitors. Significance: The identification of targetable genomic subsets of cancer has revolutionized precision oncology and offers patients treatments with more selective and effective agents. Here, we demonstrate that activating, oncogenic MET tyrosine kinase domain mutations are found across a diversity of cancer types and are responsive to MET tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

Antibody drug conjugates (ADCs) are an emerging class of treatments designed to improve efficacy and decrease toxicity compared with other systemic therapies through the selective delivery of cytotoxic agents to tumor cells. Datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) is a novel ADC comprising a topoisomerase I inhibitor payload and a monoclonal antibody directed to trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2 (TROP2), a protein that is broadly expressed in several types of solid tumors. Dato-DXd is being investigated across multiple solid tumor indications. In the ongoing, first-in-human TROPION-PanTumor01 phase I study (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03401385), encouraging and durable antitumor activity and a manageable safety profile was demonstrated in patients with advanced/metastatic hormone receptor-positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor2-negative breast cancer (HR+/HER2- BC), triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Improved understanding of the adverse events (AEs) that are associated with Dato-DXd and their optimal management is essential to ensure safe and successful administration. Interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis, infusion-related reactions, oral mucositis/stomatitis, and ocular surface events have been identified as AEs of special interest (AESIs) for which appropriate prevention, monitoring, and management is essential. This article summarizes the incidence of AESIs among patients with HR+/HER2- BC, TNBC, and NSCLC reported in TROPION-PanTumor01. We report our recommendations for AESI prophylaxis, early detection, and management, using experience gained from treating AESIs that occur with Dato-DXd in clinical trials.

PURPOSE: MEK inhibitors (MEKi) lack monotherapy efficacy in most RAS-mutant cancers. BCL-xL is an anti-apoptotic protein identified by a synthetic lethal shRNA screen as a key suppressor of apoptotic response to MEKi. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We conducted a dose escalation study (NCT02079740) of the BCL-xL inhibitor navitoclax and MEKi trametinib in patients with RAS-mutant tumors with expansion cohorts for: pancreatic, gynecologic (GYN), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and other cancers harboring KRAS/NRAS mutations. Paired pretreatment and day 15 tumor biopsies and serial cell-free (cf)DNA were analyzed. RESULTS: A total of 91 patients initiated treatment, with 38 in dose escalation. Fifty-eight percent had ≥3 prior therapies. A total of 15 patients (17%) had colorectal cancer, 19 (11%) pancreatic, 15 (17%) NSCLC, and 32 (35%) GYN cancers. The recommended phase II dose (RP2D) was established as trametinib 2 mg daily days 1 to 14 and navitoclax 250 mg daily days 1 to 28 of each cycle. Most common adverse events included diarrhea, thrombocytopenia, increased AST/ALT, and acneiform rash. At RP2D, 8 of 49 (16%) evaluable patients achieved partial response (PR). Disease-specific differences in efficacy were noted. In patients with GYN at the RP2D, 7 of 21 (33%) achieved a PR and median duration of response 8.2 months. No PRs occurred in patients with colorectal cancer, NSCLC, or pancreatic cancer. MAPK pathway inhibition was observed in on-treatment tumor biopsies. Reductions in KRAS/NRAS mutation levels in cfDNA correlated with clinical benefit. CONCLUSIONS: Navitoclax in combination with trametinib was tolerable. Durable clinical responses were observed in patients with RAS-mutant GYN cancers, warranting further evaluation in this population.

Introduction: MET amplification is a potentially actionable resistance mechanism in ALK-rearranged (ALK+) lung cancer. Studies describing treatment outcomes of this molecular subgroup are lacking. Methods: We assembled a cohort of patients with ALK+ lung cancer and acquired MET amplification (identified by tissue or plasma) who received regimens targeting both ALK and MET. Efficacy and safety were assessed using the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 and Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.03, respectively. Results: A total of 12 patients were included in the series. MET amplification was detected after a median of 1.5 (range 1-5) lines of therapy. Four distinct regimens were implemented to address MET amplification: crizotinib (n = 2), lorlatinib plus crizotinib (n = 6), alectinib plus capmatinib (n = 3), and alectinib plus crizotinib (n = 1). Partial responses were observed in five (42%) of 12 patients, including patients who received crizotinib (n = one of two), lorlatinib plus crizotinib (n = three of six), and alectinib plus capmatinib (n = one of three). Primary progression was observed in four patients (33%). Grades 1 to 2 peripheral edema, occurring in seven (58%) patients, was found with both crizotinib and capmatinib. One patient required dose reduction of capmatinib plus alectinib for persistent grade 2 edema. Across the regimens, one patient discontinued therapy for toxicity, specifically neurocognitive toxicity from lorlatinib plus crizotinib. At progression on ALK+ MET therapy, potential resistance mechanisms included MET copy number changes and ALK kinase domain mutations. Conclusions: Combined ALK and MET inhibition is associated with moderate antitumor activity in patients with ALK+ NSCLC with concurrent MET amplification. Prospective studies are indicated to confirm activity and identify individuals most likely to benefit from the treatment.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: Targeted therapy yields superior outcomes relative to genotype-agnostic therapy for patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutant lung cancer. Workflows that facilitate timely detection of EGFR mutations and early dispensation of osimertinib can improve management of this disease. METHODS: We developed an Integrated Radiology, Pathology, and Pharmacy Program to minimize delays in initiating osimertinib. The intervention consisted of parallel workflows coupling interventional radiology, surgical pathology, and analysis of nucleic acids from frozen tissue with early pharmacy engagement. We compared time to EGFR testing results and time to treatment for participating patients with those of historical cohorts. RESULTS: Between January 2020 and December 2021, 222 patients participated in the intervention. The median turnaround time from biopsy to EGFR results was 1 workday. Forty-nine (22%) tumors harbored EGFR exon 19 deletions or EGFR L858R. Thirty-one (63%) patients were prescribed osimertinib via the intervention. The median interval between osimertinib prescription and osimertinib dispensation was 3 days; dispensation occurred within 48 hours for 42% of patients. The median interval between biopsy and osimertinib dispensation was 5 days. Three patients received osimertinib within 24 hours of EGFR results. Compared with patients with EGFR-mutant non-small-cell lung cancer who were diagnosed through routine workflows, the intervention led to a significant reduction in median time between biopsy and EGFR results (1 v 7 days; P < .01) and median time to treatment initiation (5 v 23 days; P < .01). CONCLUSION: Combining radiology and pathology workflows with early parallel pharmacy engagement leads to a significant reduction in time to initiating osimertinib. Multidisciplinary integration programs are essential to maximize clinical utility of rapid testing.

PURPOSE: This first-in-human, dose-escalation and dose-expansion study evaluated the safety, tolerability, and antitumor activity of datopotamab deruxtecan (Dato-DXd), a novel trophoblast cell-surface antigen 2 (TROP2)-directed antibody-drug conjugate in solid tumors, including advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Adults with locally advanced/metastatic NSCLC received 0.27-10 mg/kg Dato-DXd once every 3 weeks during escalation or 4, 6, or 8 mg/kg Dato-DXd once every 3 weeks during expansion. Primary end points were safety and tolerability. Secondary end points included objective response rate (ORR), survival, and pharmacokinetics. RESULTS: Two hundred ten patients received Dato-DXd, including 180 in the 4-8 mg/kg dose-expansion cohorts. This population had a median of three prior lines of therapy. The maximum tolerated dose was 8 mg/kg once every 3 weeks; the recommended dose for further development was 6 mg/kg once every 3 weeks. In patients receiving 6 mg/kg (n = 50), median duration on study, including follow-up, and median exposure were 13.3 and 3.5 months, respectively. The most frequent any-grade treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were nausea (64%), stomatitis (60%), and alopecia (42%). Grade ≥3 TEAEs and treatment-related AEs occurred in 54% and 26% of patients, respectively. Interstitial lung disease adjudicated as drug-related (two grade 2 and one grade 4) occurred in three of 50 patients (6%). The ORR was 26% (95% CI, 14.6 to 40.3), and median duration of response was 10.5 months; median progression-free survival and overall survival were 6.9 months (95% CI, 2.7 to 8.8 months) and 11.4 months (95% CI, 7.1 to 20.6 months), respectively. Responses occurred regardless of TROP2 expression. CONCLUSION: Promising antitumor activity and a manageable safety profile were seen with Dato-DXd in heavily pretreated patients with advanced NSCLC. Further investigation as first-line combination therapy in advanced NSCLC and as monotherapy in the second-line setting and beyond is ongoing.

Clinical trials frequently include multiple end points that mature at different times. The initial report, typically based on the primary end point, may be published when key planned co-primary or secondary analyses are not yet available. Clinical Trial Updates provide an opportunity to disseminate additional results from studies, published in JCO or elsewhere, for which the primary end point has already been reported.Patients with Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS)-mutated non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and untreated CNS metastases have a worse prognosis than similar patients without KRAS mutations. Adagrasib has previously demonstrated CNS penetration preclinically and cerebral spinal fluid penetration clinically. We evaluated adagrasib in patients with KRASG12C-mutated NSCLC and untreated CNS metastases from the KRYSTAL-1 trial (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT03785249; phase Ib cohort), in which adagrasib 600 mg was administered orally, twice daily. Study outcomes included the safety and clinical activity (intracranial [IC] and systemic) by blinded independent central review. Twenty-five patients with KRASG12C-mutated NSCLC and untreated CNS metastases were enrolled and evaluated (median follow-up, 13.7 months); 19 patients were radiographically evaluable for IC activity. Safety was consistent with previous reports of adagrasib, with grade 3 treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) in 10 patients (40%) and one grade 4 (4%) and no grade 5 TRAEs. The most common CNS-specific TRAEs included dysgeusia (24%) and dizziness (20%). Adagrasib demonstrated an IC objective response rate of 42%, disease control rate of 90%, progression-free survival of 5.4 months, and median overall survival of 11.4 months. Adagrasib is the first KRASG12C inhibitor to prospectively demonstrate IC activity in patients with KRASG12C-mutated NSCLC and untreated CNS metastases, supporting further investigation in this population.

Brain metastases (BMs) are an emerging challenge in oncology due to increasing incidence and limited treatments. Here, we present results of a single-arm, open-label, phase 2 trial evaluating intracranial efficacy of pembrolizumab, a programmed cell death protein 1 inhibitor, in 9 patients with untreated BMs (cohort A) and 48 patients with recurrent and progressive BMs (cohort B) across different histologies. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients achieving intracranial benefit, defined by complete response, partial response or stable disease. The primary endpoint was met with an intracranial benefit rate of 42.1% (90% confidence interval (CI): 31-54%). The median overall survival, a secondary endpoint, was 8.0 months (90% CI: 5.5-8.7 months) across both cohorts, 6.5 months (90% CI: 4.5-18.7 months) for cohort A and 8.1 months (90% CI: 5.3-9.6 months) for cohort B. Seven patients (12.3%), encompassing breast, melanoma and sarcoma histologies, had overall survival greater than 2 years. Thirty patients (52%; 90% CI: 41-64%) had one or more grade-3 or higher adverse events that were at least possibly treatment related. Two patients had grade-4 adverse events (cerebral edema) that were deemed at least possibly treatment related. These results suggest that programmed cell death protein 1 blockade may benefit a select group of patients with BMs, and support further studies to identify biomarkers and mechanisms of resistance.

Although lung cancer treatment has been transformed by the advent of checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapies, there remains a high unmet need for new effective therapies for patients with progressive disease. Novel treatment strategies include combination therapies with currently available programmed death ligand 1 inhibitors, targeting alternative immune checkpoints, and the use of novel immunomodulatory therapies. In addition, antibody-drug conjugates offer great promise as potent management options. As these agents are further tested in clinical trials, we anticipate that more effective therapies for patients with lung cancer are integrated into regular clinical practice.

PURPOSE: No approved targeted therapy for the treatment of patients with neuroblastoma RAS viral (v-ras) oncogene homolog (NRAS)-mutant melanoma is currently available. PATIENTS AND METHODS: In this phase Ib escalation/expansion study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02974725), the safety, tolerability, and preliminary antitumor activity of naporafenib (LXH254), a BRAF/CRAF protein kinases inhibitor, were explored in combination with trametinib in patients with advanced/metastatic KRAS- or BRAF-mutant non-small-cell lung cancer (escalation arm) or NRAS-mutant melanoma (escalation and expansion arms). RESULTS: Thirty-six and 30 patients were enrolled in escalation and expansion, respectively. During escalation, six patients reported grade ≥3 dose-limiting toxicities, including dermatitis acneiform (n = 2), maculopapular rash (n = 2), increased lipase (n = 1), and Stevens-Johnson syndrome (n = 1). The recommended doses for expansion were naporafenib 200 mg twice a day plus trametinib 1 mg once daily and naporafenib 400 mg twice a day plus trametinib 0.5 mg once daily. During expansion, all 30 patients experienced a treatment-related adverse event, the most common being rash (80%, n = 24), blood creatine phosphokinase increased, diarrhea, and nausea (30%, n = 9 each). In expansion, the objective response rate, median duration of response, and median progression-free survival were 46.7% (95% CI, 21.3 to 73.4; 7 of 15 patients), 3.75 (95% CI, 1.97 to not estimable [NE]) months, and 5.52 months, respectively, in patients treated with naporafenib 200 mg twice a day plus trametinib 1 mg once daily, and 13.3% (95% CI, 1.7 to 40.5; 2 of 15 patients), 3.75 (95% CI, 2.04 to NE) months, and 4.21 months, respectively, in patients treated with naporafenib 400 mg twice a day plus trametinib 0.5 mg once daily. CONCLUSION: Naporafenib plus trametinib showed promising preliminary antitumor activity in patients with NRAS-mutant melanoma. Prophylactic strategies aimed to lower the incidence of skin-related events are under investigation.

INTRODUCTION: Capmatinib, a MET inhibitor, showed substantial antitumour activity with manageable side effects in patients with MET exon 14 (METex14)-mutated advanced non-small cell lung cancer (aNSCLC) in the GEOMETRY mono-1 study. We report patient-reported outcomes (PROs) from this study. METHODS: Enrolled treatment-naïve (1L) or pre-treated (2L+) patients with aNSCLC with a METex14-skipping mutation received 400 mg capmatinib twice daily during 21-day treatment cycles. PROs were collected at baseline and every six weeks thereafter using EORTC QLQ-C30 global health status/quality of life (GHS/QoL), QLQ-LC13 symptoms, and EQ-5D-5L visual analogue scale (VAS) questionnaires. RESULTS: As of 6 January 2020, 27/28 1L and 65/69 2L+ patients had completed PROs at baseline; compliance rates remained >70%. Cough improved early, with meaningful improvements (≥10-point change from baseline) observed throughout cycles (mean change from baseline [SD] by week 7: 1L -13.0 [39.9], 2L+ -8.2 [28.4]; week 43: 1L -28.2 [26.7], 2L+ -10.5 [27.3]). QoL, assessed by GHS/QoL and VAS, improved by week 7 in 1L and 2L+ patients, with improvements generally sustained over time. Median time to definitive deterioration (TTDD) in GHS/QoL was 16.6 months (95% CI: 9.7, not estimable [NE]) in 1L and 12.4 months (95% CI: 4.2, 19.4) in 2L+ patients. Median TTDD for dyspnoea was 19.4 months (95% CI: 12.4, NE) and 22.1 months (95% CI: 9.9, NE) for 1L and 2L+ patients, respectively, and NE for cough and chest pain. CONCLUSIONS: Capmatinib was associated with clinically meaningful improvements in cough and preserved QoL, further supporting its use in patients with METex14-mutated aNSCLC. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov registry number: NCT02414139.

Introduction: Co-occurring mutations in KRAS-mutant NSCLC are associated with discrete biological properties and modulate therapeutic susceptibilities. As G12D-specific inhibitors are expected to enter the clinic, we sought to investigate the characteristics and outcomes of patients with KRAS G12D-mutant NSCLC. Methods: This was a retrospective single-institution study. Patients with NSCLC and KRAS G12D mutations detected by the Massachusetts General Hospital SNaPshot next-generation sequencing assay were identified. Clinical and pathologic characteristics were collected by chart review. Results: A total of 107 patients with KRAS G12D-mutant NSCLC were identified. Most patients were former smokers (80, 74.8%) and had tumors with adenocarcinoma pathologic subtype (93, 86.9%). Among 56 patients evaluated for programmed death-ligand 1 expression, tumor proportion score was less than 50% in 43 (76.8%). Concomitant mutations were identified in STK11 (17 of 107, 15.9%), KEAP1 (10 of 58, 17.2%), TP53 (36 of 107, 33.6%), and SMARCA4 (11 of 107, 10.3%). Among 57 patients treated with first-line therapy, patients with STK11 co-mutations had shorter progression-free survival (1.2 mo, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.6-2.9 versus 4.1 mo, 95% CI: 2.5-6.0, p = 0.0235) and overall survival (4.3 mo, 95% CI: 1.2-10.6 versus 17.9 mo, 95% CI: 8.6-31.1, p = 0.0018) compared with wild type. Patients with KEAP1 co-mutations had shorter overall survival (4.6 mo, 95% CI: 1.2-10.6 versus 17.9 mo, 95% CI: 7.1-30.1, p = 0.0125) than those without. TP53 co-mutations exerted no influence on survival. Conclusions: Co-occurring mutations were common in patients with KRAS G12D-mutant NSCLC. STK11 and KEAP1 co-mutations were associated with worse clinical outcomes, whereas co-occurring TP53 did not affect survival.
RESUMEN
Introduction: Alectinib is a preferred first-line treatment option for advanced ALK-positive NSCLC. Combination regimens of alectinib with immune checkpoint inhibitors are being evaluated for synergistic effects. Methods: Adults with treatment-naive, stage IIIB/IV, or recurrent ALK-positive NSCLC were enrolled into a two-stage phase 1b study. Patients received alectinib 600 mg (twice daily during cycle 1 and throughout each 21-d cycle thereafter) plus atezolizumab 1200 mg (d8 of cycle 1 and then d1 of each 21-d cycle). Primary objectives were to evaluate safety and tolerability of alectinib plus atezolizumab. Secondary objectives included assessments of antitumor activity. Results: In total, 21 patients received more than or equal to 1 dose of alectinib or atezolizumab. As no dose-limiting toxicities were observed in stage 1 (n = 7), the starting dose and schedule were continued into stage 2 (n = 14). Median duration of follow-up was 29 months (range: 1-39). Grade 3 treatment-related adverse events occurred in 57% of the patients, most often rash (19%). No grade 4 or 5 treatment-related adverse events were reported. Confirmed objective response rate was 86% (18 of 21; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 64-97). Median progression-free survival was not estimable (NE) (95% CI: 13 mo-NE), neither was median overall survival (95% CI: 33 mo-NE). Conclusions: The combination of alectinib and atezolizumab is feasible, but increased toxicity was found compared with the individual agents. With small sample sizes and relatively short follow-up, definitive conclusions regarding antitumor activity cannot be made.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Precision oncology relies on molecular diagnostics, and the value-proposition of modern healthcare networks promises a higher standard of care across partner sites. We present the results of a clinical pilot to standardize precision oncology workflows. METHODS: Workflows are defined as the development, roll-out, and updating of disease-specific molecular order sets. We tracked the timeline, composition, and effort of consensus meetings to define the combination of molecular tests. To assess clinical impact, we examined order set adoption over a two-year period (before and after roll-out) across all gastrointestinal and hepatopancreatobiliary (GI) malignancies, and by provider location within the network. RESULTS: Development of 12 disease center-specific order sets took ~9 months, and the average number of tests per indication changed from 2.9 to 2.8 (P = .74). After roll-out, we identified significant increases in requests for GI patients (17%; P < .001), compliance with testing recommendations (9%; P < .001), and the fraction of "abnormal" results (6%; P < .001). Of 1088 GI patients, only 3 received targeted agents based on findings derived from non-recommended orders (1 before and 2 after roll-out); indicating that our practice did not negatively affect patient treatments. Preliminary analysis showed 99% compliance by providers in network sites, confirming the adoption of the order sets across the network. CONCLUSION: Our study details the effort of establishing precision oncology workflows, the adoption pattern, and the absence of harm from the reduction of non-recommended orders. Establishing a modifiable communication tool for molecular testing is an essential component to optimize patient care via precision oncology.

Introduction: The central nervous system (CNS) is a common site of progression among patients with ROS1-rearranged lung cancer receiving crizotinib. We conducted a phase 2 study to evaluate the intracranial efficacy of lorlatinib in patients with ROS1-rearranged lung cancer who developed CNS-only progression on crizotinib. Methods: Patients with metastatic ROS1-rearranged lung cancer with CNS-only progression on crizotinib received lorlatinib 100 mg daily. The primary end point was intracranial disease control rate at 12 weeks per modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1. Secondary end points included intracranial and extracranial progression-free survival, intracranial objective response rate, and safety/tolerability. Results: A total of 16 patients were enrolled between November 2016 and January 2019. Nine patients (56%) had received prior CNS radiation, with a median of 10.9 months between radiation and lorlatinib. At 12 weeks, the intracranial disease control rate was 100% and intracranial objective response rate was 87%. While on study, the complee intracranial response rate was 60%. With median follow-up of 22 months, seven patients experienced disease progression, including five patients with CNS relapse. The median intracranial and extracranial progression-free survivals were 38.8 months (95% confidence interval: 16.9-not reported) and 41.1 months (95% confidence interval: 17.6-not reported), respectively. Molecular analysis of plasma or tissue from patients with extracranial progression on lorlatinib revealed ROS1 G2032R (n = 1), ROS1 L2086F (n = 1), and CCDC6-RET fusion plus ROS1 G2032R (n = 1). The safety profile of lorlatinib was consistent with prior studies. There were 11 patients (69%) who required dose reduction, including one patient who discontinued treatment for grade 3 edema. No grade greater than or equal to 4 adverse events were observed. Conclusions: Lorlatinib induced durable intracranial responses in patients with ROS1-rearranged NSCLC and prior isolated CNS progression on crizotinib.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Adagrasib, a KRASG12C inhibitor, irreversibly and selectively binds KRASG12C, locking it in its inactive state. Adagrasib showed clinical activity and had an acceptable adverse-event profile in the phase 1-1b part of the KRYSTAL-1 phase 1-2 study. METHODS: In a registrational phase 2 cohort, we evaluated adagrasib (600 mg orally twice daily) in patients with KRASG12C -mutated non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) previously treated with platinum-based chemotherapy and anti-programmed death 1 or programmed death ligand 1 therapy. The primary end point was objective response assessed by blinded independent central review. Secondary end points included the duration of response, progression-free survival, overall survival, and safety. RESULTS: As of October 15, 2021, a total of 116 patients with KRASG12C -mutated NSCLC had been treated (median follow-up, 12.9 months); 98.3% had previously received both chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Of 112 patients with measurable disease at baseline, 48 (42.9%) had a confirmed objective response. The median duration of response was 8.5 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 6.2 to 13.8), and the median progression-free survival was 6.5 months (95% CI, 4.7 to 8.4). As of January 15, 2022 (median follow-up, 15.6 months), the median overall survival was 12.6 months (95% CI, 9.2 to 19.2). Among 33 patients with previously treated, stable central nervous system metastases, the intracranial confirmed objective response rate was 33.3% (95% CI, 18.0 to 51.8). Treatment-related adverse events occurred in 97.4% of the patients - grade 1 or 2 in 52.6% and grade 3 or higher in 44.8% (including two grade 5 events) - and resulted in drug discontinuation in 6.9% of patients. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with previously treated KRASG12C -mutated NSCLC, adagrasib showed clinical efficacy without new safety signals.

PURPOSE: The CNS is a recurrent site of progression in anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-rearranged (ALK+) lung cancer. Lorlatinib is a third-generation ALK inhibitor developed to penetrate the CNS and overcome ALK resistance mutations. We conducted a phase II study to evaluate the intracranial activity of lorlatinib in patients with CNS-only progression on second-generation ALK inhibitors. METHODS: Patients with ALK+ lung cancer who had intracranial progression on ≥ 1 ALK inhibitor without measurable extracranial disease received lorlatinib 100 mg once daily. The primary end point was intracranial disease control rate at 12 weeks per modified RECIST v1.1. Secondary end points included intracranial progression-free survival, intracranial objective response rate, and safety/tolerability. RESULTS: Twenty-three patients were enrolled between November 2016 and January 2019. Fifteen (65%) patients had irradiated CNS metastases, with a median of 20.2 months between radiation and lorlatinib. Control of intracranial disease was observed in 21 (95%) evaluable patients at 12 weeks. The intracranial objective response rate was 59% with six complete and seven partial responses. The median intracranial progression-free survival was 24.6 months (95% CI, 20.2 to not reached). With a median follow-up of 16.8 months, nine patients developed disease progression, including four patients with CNS progression. The most common treatment-related adverse events were hypercholesterolemia (96%), hypertriglyceridemia (87%), edema (65%), cognitive effects (52%), and mood effects (43%). Three patients discontinued treatment because of toxicity, including two patients with fatal respiratory events. CONCLUSION: Lorlatinib induced durable intracranial disease control in patients with CNS-only relapse on second-generation ALK inhibitors, suggesting that tumors with CNS-limited progression on brain-penetrant ALK tyrosine kinase inhibitors remain ALK-dependent.

Introduction: This multicenter review evaluated the efficacy and safety of osimertinib dose escalation for central nervous system (CNS) progression developing on osimertinib 80 mg in EGFR-mutant NSCLC. Methods: Retrospective review identified 105 patients from eight institutions with advanced EGFR-mutant NSCLC treated with osimertinib 160 mg daily between October 2013 and January 2020. Radiographic responses were clinically assessed, and Kaplan-Meier analyses were used. We defined CNS disease control as the interval from osimertinib 160 mg initiation to CNS progression or discontinuation of osimertinib 160 mg. Results: Among 105 patients treated with osimertinib 160 mg, 69 were escalated for CNS progression, including 24 treated with dose escalation alone (cohort A), 34 who received dose-escalated osimertinib plus concurrent chemotherapy and/or radiation (cohort B), and 11 who received osimertinib 160 mg without any prior 80 mg exposure. The median duration of CNS control was 3.8 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.7-5.8) in cohort A, 5.1 months (95% CI, 3.1-6.5) in cohort B, and 4.2 months (95% CI 1.6-not reached) in cohort C. Across all cohorts, the median duration of CNS control was 6.0 months (95% CI, 5.1-9.0) in isolated leptomeningeal progression (n = 27) and 3.3 months (95% CI, 1.0-3.1) among those with parenchymal-only metastases (n = 23). Patients on osimertinib 160 mg experienced no severe or unexpected side effects. Conclusion: Among patients with EGFR-mutant NSCLC experiencing CNS progression on osimertinib 80 mg daily, dose escalation to 160 mg provided modest benefit with CNS control lasting approximately 3 to 6 months and seemed more effective in patients with isolated leptomeningeal CNS progression.
RESUMEN
Bone metastases are often difficult to manage as they can be symptomatic and skeletal-related events (SREs) can contribute to significant morbidity and declines in performance status. We sought to identify a novel medical treatment for bone metastasis by testing the safety and efficacy of cabozantinib in patients with bone metastasis arising from non-breast, non-prostate, malignant solid tumors. Patients were administered cabozantinib as an oral drug starting at 60 mg per day and radiologic measurements were performed at baseline and every 8 weeks. Thirty-seven patients were enrolled. No SREs were observed throughout the study. Twenty patients had disease measurable by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. Four of 20 had a partial response by RECIST. An additional 12 patients had some decrease in tumor burden with nine of these having a decrease in tumor burden of at least 10% by RECIST. Six of the patients with at least a minor response had sarcoma. Sixteen patients had biomarkers of bone turnover measured before and after treatment. Most of these patients demonstrated decrease in urine and serum N-telopeptide and serum C-telopeptide. However, these changes in biomarkers of bone turnover did not correlate with radiographic changes measured by RECIST. This study demonstrates clinical activity and safety for cabozantinib in heavily pretreated patients with bone metastasis and shows activity for cabozantinib in patients with metastatic sarcoma.

PURPOSE: Patients with KRAS-mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with brain metastases (BM) have a poor prognosis. Adagrasib (MRTX849), a potent oral small-molecule KRASG12C inhibitor, irreversibly and selectively binds KRASG12C, locking it in its inactive state. Adagrasib has been optimized for favorable pharmacokinetic properties, including long half-life (â¼24 hours), extensive tissue distribution, dose-dependent pharmacokinetics, and central nervous system penetration; however, BM-specific antitumor activity of KRASG12C inhibitors remains to be fully characterized. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: A retrospective database query identified patients with KRAS-mutant NSCLC to understand their propensity to develop BM. Preclinical studies assessed physiochemical and pharmacokinetic properties of adagrasib. Mice bearing intracranial KRASG12C-mutant NSCLC xenografts (LU99-Luc/H23-Luc/LU65-Luc) were treated with clinically relevant adagrasib doses, and levels of adagrasib in plasma, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and brain were determined along with antitumor activity. Preliminary clinical data were collected from 2 patients with NSCLC with untreated BM who had received adagrasib 600 mg twice daily in the phase Ib cohort of the KRYSTAL-1 trial; CSF was collected, adagrasib concentrations measured, and antitumor activity in BM evaluated. RESULTS: Patients with KRAS-mutant NSCLC demonstrated high propensity to develop BM (≥40%). Adagrasib penetrated into CSF and demonstrated tumor regression and extended survival in multiple preclinical BM models. In 2 patients with NSCLC and untreated BM, CSF concentrations of adagrasib measured above the target cellular IC50. Both patients demonstrated corresponding BM regression, supporting potential clinical activity of adagrasib in the brain. CONCLUSIONS: These data support further development of adagrasib in patients with KRASG12C-mutant NSCLC with untreated BM. See related commentary by Kommalapati and Mansfield, p. 3179.
