Abstract Background Repotrectinib, a next-generation ROS1/TRK tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is approved for ROS1 fusion-positive non-small cell lung cancer and NTRK fusion-positive solid tumors. Its side effects and safety management strategies require further characterization. Patients and Methods The safety profile of repotrectinib (treatment-emergent/related adverse events [TEAEs/TRAEs]) was established in patients who initiated treatment at the recommended dose (160 mg daily [QD] for 14 days, then 160 mg twice daily [BID]) across all cohorts of the global, multicenter phase 1/2 TRIDENT-1 study. AE management strategies were outlined. Results In 472 patients, the most common TRAEs (dizziness [58%] and dysgeusia [50%]) were likely TRK inhibition-related. Median relative dose intensity was 90%; 14% (n = 66/472) of patients did not increase their initial QD dose to BID (mostly due to CNS AEs). Rates of dizziness (median onset, 7 days) were similar in patients with/without baseline brain metastases. Dose modifications downgraded severity or resolved dizziness in 78% of patients; 58% of patients had pharmacologic intervention without dose modification. Dizziness was downgraded/resolved in 62% (n = 120/195) of patients who did not receive dose modification or pharmacologic intervention. Treatment-related cognitive impairment and weight gain occurred in 19% and 12% of patients, respectively. Treatment-emergent withdrawal pain occurred in 14% of patients (median resolution time, 2.1 weeks). Dose interruption and reduction from TRAEs occurred in 39% and 38% of patients, respectively; 10% reported later re-escalation back to 160 mg BID. Conclusion Many repotrectinib AEs, including neurological AEs secondary to TRK inhibition, were mitigated with appropriate management, including dose modification and/or pharmacologic intervention.

2598 Background: GI-102 (CD80-IL2v3) is a novel immunocytokine designed to direct IL-2v3 to immune cells and tumor cells. IL-2v3 of GI-102 abolished affinity to IL-2Rα minimizing the impact of IL-2 on Treg cells. Preferential targeting of immune cells and further inhibition of CTLA-4 and PD-L1 via CD80 synergize with potent activity of IL-2v3, resulting in robust proliferation and activation of CD8+ T and NK cells. Here we report preliminary safety and efficacy data of GI-102 from a phase 1/2a trial in patients with metastatic solid tumors. Methods: NCT05824975 is an ongoing, dose escalation (3+3 design) and expansion study to evaluate safety, tolerability, PK, PD and anti-tumor activity of GI-102. Each dose level allows to enroll additional 7 patients to fully inform the safety, PK and PD at that dose level. GI-102 was administered intravenously every 3 weeks until disease progression or unacceptable toxicities. Disease was assessed every 6 weeks using RECIST v1.1. Results: As of 12 Jan 2024, 32 patients were treated in dose escalation: 8 at dose level 0.06 mg/kg, 10 at 0.12 mg/kg, 9 at 0.24 mg/kg and 5 at 0.45 mg/kg. Patients had received median of 3 [1-7] prior lines of therapy, including 25.0% (8/32) who had received ≥ 5 lines and 68.8% (22/32) had experienced immune checkpoint blockade (ICB). No dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) were observed until the highest dose of 0.45 mg/kg Q3W. The most common treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs, ≥ 10%) were pyrexia [43.8%] and chills [34.4%]. 5 patients [15.6%] had ≥ Grade 3 TRAEs and no patient reported TRAEs leading to discontinuation of GI-102. In 23 patients (7 cutaneous melanoma, 4 non-small cell lung cancer, 3 ovarian cancer and others) who had at least 1 post-treatment tumor assessment, objective responses were observed in 17.4% (4/23). In patients with metastatic melanoma who previously experienced ICB, overall response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) was 42.9% (3/7) and 85.7% (6/7), respectively, including 3 confirmed partial responses (cPR). The median time to response (TTR) was 6 weeks and duration of response (DoR) was 6.0+, 2.4+ and 1.7+ month, respectively. In patients with metastatic ovarian cancer, ORR and DCR were 33.3% (1/3) and 66.7% (2/3), respectively, including 1 cPR [TTR of 6 weeks; DoR 1.9+ month]. Preliminary PK profile showed target-mediated drug disposition with a half-life of ~48 hours. 0.24 mg/kg of GI-102 resulted in a significant expansion of peripheral lymphocytes, CD8+ T cells (effector & memory) and NK cells, by 4.4 [2.1-9.6], 3.9 [2.0–5.7] and 20.4 [9.5–32.6]-fold change from baseline, respectively. There was no meaningful increase in Treg cells. Conclusions: GI-102 was well tolerated up to dose of 0.45 mg/kg Q3W with meaningful monotherapy activity, regardless of previous ICB experience, in patients who failed on standard of care. The dose-escalation is currently ongoing to identify RP2D. Clinical trial information: NCT05824975 .

Background: Rearranged during transfection ( RET ) alterations are targetable oncogenic drivers in thyroid cancer. Primary data from the open-label, phase 1/2 ARROW study demonstrated clinical activity and manageable safety with pralsetinib, a selective RET inhibitor, in patients with advanced/metastatic RET -altered thyroid cancer. We present an updated analysis with more patients and longer follow-up. Methods: Adult patients with advanced/metastatic RET -mutant medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) or RET fusion-positive thyroid cancer who initiated oral pralsetinib at 400 mg once daily were included. Primary endpoints were overall response rate (ORR) by blinded independent central review (per RECIST v1.1) and safety. Secondary endpoints included duration of response (DoR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival. Responses were assessed in three cohorts of patients with baseline measurable disease: patients with RET -mutant MTC who had received prior cabozantinib and/or vandetanib (C/V), treatment-naïve patients with RET -mutant MTC, and patients with previously treated RET fusion-positive thyroid cancer. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) were an exploratory endpoint. Results: As of October 18, 2021, the measurable disease population comprised of 61 patients with RET -mutant MTC and prior C/V, 62 treatment-naïve patients with RET -mutant MTC, and 22 patients with RET fusion-positive thyroid cancer who had received prior systemic therapy, including radioactive iodine. The ORR was 55.7% [confidence interval; 95% CI: 42.4–68.5] in patients with RET -mutant MTC and prior C/V, 77.4% [95% CI: 65.0–87.1] in treatment-naïve patients with RET -mutant MTC, and 90.9% [95% CI: 70.8–98.9] in patients with previously treated RET fusion-positive thyroid cancer. Median DoR and median PFS were both 25.8 months in patients with RET -mutant MTC and prior C/V, not reached in treatment-naïve patients with RET -mutant MTC, and 23.6 and 25.4 months, respectively, in patients with previously treated RET fusion-positive thyroid cancer. In the RET -altered thyroid cancer safety population ( N = 175), 97.1% of patients reported a treatment-related adverse event (TRAE); these led to discontinuation in 5.7% and dose reduction in 52.6% of patients. There was one death (0.6%) due to a TRAE. PROs improved or remained stable after pralsetinib treatment. Conclusions: In this updated analysis of the ARROW study, pralsetinib continued to show deep and durable clinical activity and a manageable safety profile in patients with advanced/metastatic RET- altered thyroid cancer.

6080 Background: Alterations in RET are targetable oncogenic drivers in TC. Pralsetinib is a highly potent, selective RET inhibitor, with demonstrated efficacy in pts with RET-altered TC. In a previous analysis of the Phase I/II ARROW trial (NCT03037385; data cutoff: 22 May 2020), overall response rates [ORR; measurable-disease population] with pralsetinib at 400 mg once daily (QD) were 60% (33/55) and 71% (15/21) in pts with RET-mutant medullary TC ( RET-mutant MTC) who had received prior multikinase inhibitors cabozantinib and/or vandetanib (C/V), and those who were treatment naïve, respectively, and 89% (8/9) in pts with previously treated RET fusion-positive TC ( RET-fp TC). Here we report an updated analysis of these cohorts in the intention-to-treat (ITT) population. Methods: Adult pts with RET-altered locally advanced/metastatic TC who had enrolled in ARROW and initiated pralsetinib at 400 mg QD, were included. Phase II primary endpoints: ORR (by blinded independent central review, per RECIST v1.1) and safety. Efficacy endpoints for this analysis were assessed in the ITT population. Safety was assessed in all pts with RET-altered TC who initiated pralsetinib at 400 mg QD. Enrolment cutoff: 23 August 2020 for the ITT population; data cutoff: 12 April 2021. Results: The ITT population comprised 145 pts with RET-mutant MTC (with or without prior systemic therapy, including C/V) and 22 pts with RET-fp TC, 21 of whom had received prior systemic therapy (including multikinase inhibitor[s] and/or radioactive iodine). In pts with RET-mutant MTC who had received prior C/V (n = 67), ORR was 51% (34/67; 95% CI 38–63; 2 complete responses [CR]; 32 partial responses [PR]), median duration of response (DoR) was 25.8 months (95% CI 18.0–not reached [NR]) and median progression-free survival (PFS) was 24.9 months (95% CI 19.7–31.2). In treatment-naïve pts with RET-mutant MTC, ORR was 72% (48/67; 95% CI 59–82; 4 CR; 44 PR), and median DoR and median PFS were not reached. In pts with previously treated RET-fp TC, ORR was 86% (18/21; 95% CI 64–97; 3 CR; 15 PR), median DoR was 17.5 months (95% CI 16.0–NR) and median PFS was 19.4 months (95% CI 13.0–NR). Median overall survival (OS) was not reached in any of the cohorts. The safety population comprised 172 pts with RET-altered TC treated at 400 mg QD. The most common treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were increased aspartate aminotransferase (n = 67; 39%), anemia (n = 60; 35%), hypertension (n = 57; 33%) and decreased white blood cell count (n = 52; 30%). Serious TRAEs were reported in 27 pts (16%); the most frequent was pneumonitis (n = 5; 3%). Nine pts (5%) discontinued pralsetinib due to a TRAE and one patient ( < 1%) died due to a TRAE ( pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia) following 44 days ( < 3 cycles) on pralsetinib. Conclusions: In this updated analysis including more pts, pralsetinib continues to be efficacious with a manageable safety profile in pts with RET-altered TC. Clinical trial information: NCT03037385.

9008 Background: Amivantamab, a fully human bispecific antibody targeting epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and MET, is approved for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with EGFR exon 20 insertion after prior platinum-based chemotherapy. Given its bispecific nature, amivantamab is being explored in patients (pts) with primary MET exon 14 skipping mutation (METex14) in the MET-2 cohort of the CHRYSALIS study. Methods: CHRYSALIS (NCT02609776) is an ongoing phase 1 dose escalation/dose expansion study of amivantamab in pts with advanced NSCLC. Pts with primary METex14 whose disease progressed on or who declined current standard of care therapy were treated with amivantamab 1050 mg (pts <80 kg) or 1400 mg (pts ≥80 kg) weekly in cycle 1 and biweekly thereafter. Response was assessed by investigators using RECIST v1.1. Results: As of 2 Dec 2021, 43 pts with METex14 had received amivantamab. Median age was 70 y (range, 43-88), 58% were women, median prior lines of therapy was 2 (range, 0-10) [eg, crizotinib (n=13), capmatinib (n=11), tepotinib (n=5), anti-MET antibody (n=1)], and 23% had history of brain metastases at baseline. In 36 pts with ≥1 postbaseline disease assessment, median duration of follow-up was 5.8 months (range, 0.3-15.8); 6 pts had no prior treatment, 11 had no prior MET inhibitor, and 19 had a prior MET inhibitor. Overall response rate was 33% (50% [3/6] in treatment-naïve pts, 46% [5/11] in pts with no prior MET inhibitor, and 21% [4/19] in pts with prior MET inhibitor therapy). Clinical benefit rate was >54% regardless of prior treatment (Table). Median duration of response (DOR) was not reached (range, 2.1-12.2 months); 67% (8/13) had DOR ≥6 months. Ten of the 12 responders remain on treatment (6.0-14.4 months) with ongoing responses; 2 discontinued after 2 and 12 months, respectively. Safety profile was consistent with previously reported experience of amivantamab (Sabari 2021 JTO 16(3):S108-109). Treatment-related adverse events leading to dose reduction or discontinuation occurred in 3 pts, each. Conclusions: Amivantamab demonstrates anti-tumor activity in primary METex14 NSCLC including after prior MET inhibitor treatment. Enrollment is ongoing and updated data will be shown.
