Abstract Text Background: Oncogenic RET is an actionable target across a variety of cancers. Selective RET inhibitors selpercatinib and pralsetinib were recently approved by the FDA and EMA for patients with RET-dependent NSCLC and thyroid cancers. The solvent front mutations (SFMs) RET G810C/S/R have been identified as mechanisms of acquired resistance to both drugs. APS03118 is a novel next-generation RET inhibitor which is potent against a range of RET fusions and mutations including both SFMs and gatekeeper mutations. Methods: The selectivity, anti-RET activity, and intracranial efficacy of APS03118 were confirmed in vitro and in vivo in a variety of RET-dependent tumor models. Results: APS03118 was highly selective against a panel of 468 kinases and demonstrated 130-fold selectivity over VEGFR-2. In enzymatic assays, APS03118 showed low nanomolar potency against wild type RET and 25 RET mutations/fusions, including the inhibition of RET G810R/C/S (IC50 0.04-5 nM) and RET V804M/L/E (IC50 0.04-1 nM). APS03118 inhibited RET phosphorylation (IC50 < 15 nM) in Ba/F3 engineered RET cells (WT, G810R, V804M, M918T). In cell proliferation assays, APS03118 potently inhibited the proliferation of KIF5B-RET Ba/F3 (WT, V804M, V804L, M918T), CCDC6-RET Ba/F3 (WT, V804M, S904F), LC2/ad (CCDC6-RET), TT (RET C634W) (IC50 < 10nM); Ba/F3 RET G810R and G810S IC50 (8-65 nM). APS03118 demonstrated marked anti-tumor efficacy in vivo in RET-driven cell-derived (Ba/F3 KIF5B-RET, V804M, TT (C634W)) and patient-derived (KIF5B-RET, CCDC6-RET, CCDC6-RET V804M) xenograft tumor models at 10 mg/kg (TGI 87-108%). Tumors completely subsided in CCDC6-RET orthotopic brain model with a 100% survival rate. In the Ba/F3 KIF5B-RET G810R xenograft model, APS03118 30 mg/kg showed 90% TGI and was well tolerated, and RET G810 mutations often drive clinical progression on current RET inhibitors. The pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic relationship of APS03118 in Ba/F3 KIF5B-RET G810R and WT xenograft tumor model was investigated, and the sustained decrease of the phosphorylated RET were observed at 30 mg/kg with the plasma exposure exceed cell IC90. Conclusions: APS03118 is a novel highly selective next-generation RET inhibitor that possesses potent in vitro and in vivo activity against a diverse range of RET alterations, including SFMs-mediated resistance. APS03118 has received IND approval and Fast Track Designation from FDA, and a first-in-human phase 1 trial for patients with RET-driven solid tumors with activating RET alterations is planned for 2022.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
