| Abstract Text | Background: RET (REarranged during Transfection) gene alterations (mutations and fusions) leading to constitutive kinase activity are identified as drivers of disease progression in multiple tumor types, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and medullary thyroid cancer (MTC). BOS172738 is an investigational, potent, selective oral RET kinase inhibitor. This next-generation inhibitor was designed with nanomolar potency against RET and >300-fold selectivity against vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2, to maximize the potential therapeutic window. Methods: NCT03780517 is a phase 1 study consisting of a dose-escalation and dose-expansion phase. During the escalation, 67 patients with RET-altered advanced solid tumors received once-daily oral doses of BOS172738 (10-150 mg). Intra-patient dose escalation was allowed as was over-accrual to dose levels deemed to be safe. Study endpoints were safety (CTCAE v. 4.03), tolerability and confirmed overall response rate (ORR; RECIST 1.1). The data cutoff was Dec. 11, 2020. Results: BOS172738 exhibited a favorable safety profile (n=67) for long-term administration with most treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) classified as grade ≤2 and deemed unrelated to drug. The most common TEAEs were creatinine phosphokinase (CPK) increase (54%), dyspnea (34%), facial edema, aspartate aminotransferase elevation, anemia (25% each), neutropenia, diarrhea (22% each), fatigue (21%), and constipation (20%). BOS172738 was not associated with hypertension or significant hepatoxicity. BOS172738 demonstrated broad anti-tumor activity with an investigator-assessed ORR of 33% (n=18/54), a NSCLC ORR of 33% (n=10/30), MTC ORR of 44% (n=7/16, including 1 complete response) and one patient with RET fusion+ pancreatic cancer reported a partial response. Responders included patients with brain metastases with one patient whose brain lesion decreased by 43%. The median duration of response has not been reached. Many patients remain on study, including the longest of 659 days, at data cutoff. BOS172738 exhibited dose-dependent exposure (AUC, Cmax), rapid absorption (median Tmax 1 to 4.5 h), and an extended half-life (approximately 65 hours) maximizing target coverage. Conclusions: BOS172738 is a highly potent and selective RET inhibitor with a differentiated safety profile and clinical activity against RET-altered tumors, including patients with brain metastases. BOS172738 continues to be evaluated in patients with NSCLC, MTC, and in patients previously treated with other selective RET inhibitors. Clinical trial information: NCT03780517. | ||||||||||||
