TPS3161 Background: RAS proteins are part of the family of small GTPases which regulate intracellular signaling pathways responsible for cell growth, migration, survival and differentiation. Oncogenic point mutations in RAS in codons 12, 13, and 61 occur in up to one-third of all human cancers and result in constitutive activation of RAS signaling, playing a key role in uncontrolled cellular growth and malignant transformation. Mutant KRASG12C in particular comprises approximately 14% of lung adenocarcinoma and 4% of colon adenocarcinoma, and less commonly in certain other types of cancer. For decades, KRAS was considered undruggable due to its high affinity for GTP/GDP and the lack of a clear binding pocket. Recent discoveries have enabled the development of compounds, including MRTX849, that covalently bind to KRASG12C at the cysteine at residue 12, lock the protein in its inactive GDP-bound conformation, and inhibit KRAS-dependent signal transduction. MRTX849 is a potent, orally-available, mutation-selective small molecule covalent inhibitor of KRASG12C. MRTX849 inhibits KRASG12C signaling in cell lines harboring this mutation, and results in tumor regression in a broad spectrum of KRASG12C animal models. Methods: This multi-center, Phase 1/2, multiple expansion cohort trial evaluates the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), metabolites, pharmacodynamics, and clinical activity of MRTX849 in patients with advanced solid tumor malignancies with a KRAS (p.G12C) mutation. The study starts with an evaluation of dose and regimen of MRTX849 using a combination of the accelerated titration and modified toxicity probability interval designs, with MRTX849 initially administered once daily in a continuous regimen expressed in 3-week cycles. As potentially viable regimens are identified, Phase 1b expansion cohorts will be opened to provide greater safety and PK data for determination of the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) and regimen. In Phase 2, separate cohorts of patients by histological diagnosis, including non-small cell lung cancer, colorectal, and other solid tumors, will be enrolled and evaluated for clinical activity using a predictive probability design. The study is open for enrollment, and recruitment is ongoing. Clinical trial information: NCT03785249.
