Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

REPOSE is a phase II clinical trial exploring the safety and efficacy of repotrectinib in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) characterized by the presence of brain metastasis (BM) and whose tumors have mutated ROS proto-oncogene 1, receptor tyrosine kinase (ROS1) gene.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

REPOSE is an international multicenter, open-label, single arm phase II clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy of repotrectinib in patients with ROS1-positive NSCLC with BM.

Upon meeting all selection criteria, a total of 20 participants confirmed ROS1 rearrangement will be enrolled. Participants who have received prior chemotherapy, immunotherapy or other non-ROS1 tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) are eligible.

Patients will continue study treatment until end of treatment (EoT) defined as the date of disease progression, death, or discontinuation from the study treatment for any other reason. After study treatment discontinuation, all participants will undergo a safety visit (at 28 ± 7 days after last treatment dose) in order to follow up toxicities and changes in concomitant medication. Patients discontinuing the study treatment at any time will enter a post-treatment follow-up period during which survival and subsequent anticancer therapy information will be collected every 3 months (± 7 days) from the safety visit until death, lost to follow-up, elective withdrawal from the study, or the end of study (EoS), whichever occurs first. Patients who discontinue treatment without evidence of disease progression will be also followed for tumor assessments until documented progression, elective withdrawal from the study, the start of new anti-cancer treatment, or the EoS.

EoS is estimated to occur approximately 13 months after the last patient included in the study initiates repotrectinib treatment, unless consent withdrawal, patient is lost to follow-up, death, or premature termination of the study. EoS is defined as the last data collection point at the last participant's safety visit and will occur after the study treatment termination of the last patient in the study.

The main objective of REPOSE study is to determine the efficacy of repotrectinib at any timepoint during the study period as determined locally by best central nervous system (CNS) response, that is in terms of intracranial objective response rate (IC-ORR).

7. Type II leptomeningeal disease per European Association of Neuro-Oncology (EANO) - European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Clinical Practice Guidelines are allowed.
8. Patients with confirmed ROS1 rearrangement. Prior to study enrollment, patients must have had confirmation of ROS1 rearrangement, which should have been determined locally by a certified laboratory using methods such as fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), next generation sequencing (NGS), quantitative PCR (qPCR), or immunohistochemistry (IHC).
9. Measurable disease according to RANO-BM criteria, with at least one measurable brain lesion of ≥10 mm on T1-weighted, gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
10. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of ≤ 2.
11. Minimum life expectancy of ≥ 6 weeks at screening.
12. No limit in number of prior chemotherapies, immunotherapy or other non-ROS1 TKI regimens. De novo patients can also be included.
13. Patients must not have previously received any ROS1 TKI-based treatment.
14. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 50% by echocardiogram (ECHO) or multigated acquisition (MUGA) scan.
15. If feasible, archival tumor biopsy sample at baseline (from primary tissue or any metastatic site) should be provided.
16. Patient has adequate bone marrow, liver, and renal function:

I. Hematological (without platelet, red blood cell transfusion, and/or granulocyte colony-stimulating factor support within 28 days before first study treatment dose): White blood cell (WBC) count \> 3.0 x 109/L, absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 x 109/L, platelet count ≥ 100.0 x109/L, and hemoglobin ≥ 8.0 g/dL (≥ 4.96 mmol/L).

In addition, they must agree to use one highly effective method of birth control from the time of screening until 2 months after the last dose of study treatments. Female patients must refrain from egg cell donation and breastfeeding during this same period.

Note: Due to a potential loss of effectiveness of hormonal contraceptives caused by interaction with study intervention, if WOCBP use hormonal contraceptives (including oral hormonal contraceptives), they must use either another form of non-hormonal highly effective contraception or a reliable barrier method.
19. Male participants who are sexually active with a WOCBP partner must be surgically sterile or using an acceptable method of contraception from the time of screening until 4 months after the last administration of the study drug. Male participants must not donate or bank sperm during this same period.
