Conclusions
Entrectinib
is safe and well-tolerated.
119 patients have been treated: 45 patients at the RP2D of 600 mg daily
therapy duration: 19 patients > 6 months (11 patients > 1 year, including 3 patients > 2 years)
Entrectinib
is an active targeted therapy for NTRK-, ROS1-,
and ALK-rearranged cancers.
confirmed responses observed in 19/24 (79%) patients with extracranial solid tumors; in addition,
evidence of tumor shrinkage observed in a patient with NTRK+ astrocytoma
brisk (within 4 weeks) and durable (up to 2 years and 3+ months) responses were achieved
NTRK-rearranged tumors
response achieved in 5 different histologies in both adult and pediatric patients
Entrectinib
is highly CNS-penetrant.
durable responses in both primary brain tumors and metastatic disease
complete response observed in the CNS
