Abstract 678TiP
Background
The RAS-MAPK (RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK) signaling pathway is frequently mutated in malignancy, with activating RAS-MAPK pathway mutations driving tumor cell proliferation and viability. NST-628 is an oral, fully brain penetrant small molecule that functions as a non-degrading, pan-RAF/MEK molecular glue, preventing phosphorylation and activation of MEK by RAF, thus inhibiting MEK-dependent cell signaling and leading to tumor cell death. NST-628 demonstrated robust activity in cell lines and xenograft/patient-derived models, including intracranially implanted, with broad spectrum of RAS-MAPK pathway mutations.
Trial design
NST-628-001 is a global Phase 1, open-label, single-arm, 2-part study to investigate safety, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of the orally administered NST-628. Eligible subjects will be adults with advanced cancer, adequate organ function, and performance status ≤ 1, without curative options. Part A, the dose escalation part of the study, will estimate NST-628 maximum tolerated dose utilizing Bayesian Optimal Interval method, to establish the recommended dose for expansion. Successive cohorts of subjects with RAS-MAPK pathway altered tumors will receive escalating doses of NST-628 once daily, in 28-day cycles. Accelerated titration is implemented in the initial dose cohorts. The primary endpoint is the dose-limiting toxicity of NST-628. Part B, the expansion part of the study, will evaluate NST-628 anti-tumor activity of up to 6 cohorts of subjects with measurable disease of the following types: melanoma with (1) NRAS mutations or (2) BRAF Class 2 or 3 alterations; solid tumors with (3) NRAS mutations, (4) KRAS mutations, or (5) BRAF Class 2 or 3 alterations; and (6) glioma with BRAF alterations. The primary endpoints are radiographic objective response and adverse events. Secondary endpoints are PFS/OS, while exploratory translational endpoints include levels of circulating tumor DNA, serum tumor markers, and tumor/blood pERK. Subjects have been treated and recruitment is ongoing.
