1290P - Updated efficacy and safety of entrectinib in patients (pts) with locally advanced/metastatic ROS1 fusion-positive (fp) NSCLC

Background

Entrectinib is a potent CNS-active ROS1 tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI). Previous integrated analyses of three phase 1/2 trials (STARTRK-2 [NCT02568267]; STARTRK-1 [NCT02097810]; ALKA-372-001 [EudraCT 2012-000148-8]), showed that entrectinib had overall and intracranial (IC) efficacy in pts with ROS1-fp NSCLC. We report updated data with longer follow-up and more pts than previous analyses from these studies.

Methods

Efficacy-evaluable pts were ROS1 TKI-naïve and ≥18 years old, and had locally advanced/metastatic ROS1-fp NSCLC, ≥1 entrectinib dose and ≥12 months (mos) follow-up from first post-treatment initiation tumour assessment. All pts who had received ≥1 entrectinib dose were safety evaluable. Tumour response was assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR) per RECIST v1.1 at Week 4 and then every 8 weeks. Primary endpoints were ORR and duration of response (DoR). Key secondary endpoints: progression-free survival (PFS); overall survival (OS); IC-ORR; IC-DoR; safety.

Results

As of 16 July 2023, 198 pts were efficacy evaluable; median age was 54 years (range 20–86). Median follow-up was 49.4 mos. Entrectinib showed efficacy in pts with ROS1-fp NSCLC, including those with or without baseline CNS metastases (mets) (Table). In pts with baseline CNS mets by BICR (n=67), IC-ORR was 40.3% (95% CI 28.5–53.0) and median IC-DoR was 12.9 mos (95% CI 8.0–22.2). In the subset of pts who received entrectinib as first-line (1L) treatment (1L cohort, n=85; exploratory analyses; Table), ORR was 68.2% (95% CI 57.2–77.9); median DoR was 35.6 mos (95% CI 14.8–40.4); median PFS was 17.5 mos (95% CI 12.0–30.4). Overall, 247 pts were safety evaluable; safety data were in line with the known safety profile of entrectinib. Table: 1290P

Conclusions

Consistent with previous reports, entrectinib continues to show overall and IC efficacy and a manageable safety profile in pts with ROS1-fp NSCLC, including those who received it in 1L.
