HRAS mutant | head and neck squamous cell carcinoma | predicted - sensitive | Tipifarnib | Phase II | Actionable | In a Phase II trial (AIM-HN), Zarnestra (tipifarnib) demonstrated safety and preliminary activity in patients with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma harboring mutations in HRAS, resulting in an objective response rate of 20% (10/50, 1 complete and 9 partial responses), disease control rate of 48% (24/50), with stable disease in 14 patients, median progression-free survival of 2.6 mo, and median overall survival of 7 mo (Ann Oncol (2023) 34 (suppl_2): S1286-S1287; NCT03719690). | detail... |
HRAS mutant | head and neck squamous cell carcinoma | predicted - sensitive | Tipifarnib | Phase II | Actionable | In a Phase II trial (KO-TIP-001), Zarnestra (tipifarnib) treatment resulted in an objective response rate of 55% (11/20) in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma harboring HRAS missense mutations at a variant allele frequency over 20%, with nine patients achieved stable disease and a median progression-free survival of 5.6 months (PMID: 33750196; NCT02383927). | 33750196 |
HRAS mutant | head and neck squamous cell carcinoma | predicted - sensitive | Tipifarnib | Preclinical - Cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cell lines harboring an HRAS mutation were sensitive to treatment with Zarnestra (tipifarnib), demonstrating reduced cell growth and decreased phosphorylation of Erk and Mek, and inhibition of spheroid viability in culture (PMID: 32727882). | 32727882 |
