| Abstract Text | Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) resistance to imatinib and other tyrosine kinase inhibitors poses an ongoing clinical challenge. We investigated molecularly matched combination therapies for treatment-refractory GIST, including drugs not previously combined in human studies.Patients of all ages with unresectable and/or metastatic GIST treated with combination therapies were included (February 13, 2015-December 31, 2022). These patients were discussed at molecular tumor board and enrolled in the prospective Investigation of Profile-Related Evidence Determining Individualized Cancer Therapy (I-PREDICT) study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02534675). Patient demographics, tumor next-generation sequencing (NGS), treatment responses, and survival outcomes were retrospectively analyzed.Six (1.6%) patients met the inclusion criteria. The median age at diagnosis was 59.5 years with the majority (4/6) of patients being male. NGS revealed median of six deleterious genomic alterations per patient excluding variants of unknown significance. Five (5/6) patients had KIT-mutant GIST, and one patient had BRAFV600E-mutant GIST. Two thirds of tumors had CDKN2A/B loss. Patients received median of 1 (range, 1-3) customized combination therapy consisting of median of 2 (range, 2-3) drugs targeting median of 2 (range, 2-4) genomic alterations. One patient experienced a treatment-related grade ≥3 adverse event (hypertension). For all patients, the best response by RECIST v1.1 was stable disease (SD). Combination therapies led to SD ≥6 months (range, 6.2-11.3 months) in four (4/6) patients compared with none in the immediate previous single-agent targeted therapies (SD range, 1.5-5.4 months). Most (5/6) patients had at least 60% prolongation of their progression-free survival compared with their immediate previous single-agent targeted therapy.Our results demonstrate that a multitargeted, biomarker-matched combination approach can be safely administered to obtain disease control. Tailored combination therapies for advanced GIST with multiple genomic alterations warrant further investigation. | ||||||||||||
