  • Entrectinib (Interim Monograph)
    Entrectinib (interim monograph) DRUG NAME: Entrectinib SYNONYM(S): RXDX-1011, NMS-E6282 COMMON TRADE NAME(S): ROZLYTREK® CLASSIFICATION: molecular targeted therapy Special pediatric considerations are noted when applicable, otherwise adult provisions apply. MECHANISM OF ACTION: Entrectinib is an orally administered, small molecule, multi-target tyrosine kinase inhibitor which targets tropomyosin- related kinase (Trk) proteins TrkA, TrkB, and TrkC, proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase ROS (ROS1) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK). TrkA, TrkB, and TrkC are receptor tyrosine kinases encoded by the neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase (NTRK) genes NTRK1, NTRK2, and NTRK3, respectively. Fusion proteins that include Trk, ROS1, or ALK kinase domains drive tumorigenic potential through hyperactivation of downstream signalling pathways leading to unconstrained cell proliferation. By potently inhibiting the Trk kinases, ROS1, and ALK, entrectinib inhibits downstream signalling pathways, cell proliferation and induces tumour cell apoptosis.3-5 PHARMACOKINETICS: Oral Absorption bioavailability = 55%; Tmax = 4-6 hours; Tmax delayed 2 h by high-fat, high-calorie food intake Distribution highly bound to human plasma proteins cross blood brain barrier? yes volume of distribution 551 L (entrectinib); 81.1 L (M5) plasma protein binding >99% (entrectinib and M5) Metabolism primarily metabolized by CYP 3A4 active metabolite(s) M5 inactive metabolite(s) M11 Excretion primarily via hepatic clearance urine 3.06% feces 82.9% (36% as unchanged entrectinib, 22% as M5) terminal half life 20 h (entrectinib); 40 h (M5) clearance 19.6 L/h (entrectinib); 52.4 L/h (M5) Elderly no clinically significant difference Children comparable pharmacokinetics of entrectinib and M5 in adults and children Ethnicity no clinically significant difference Adapted from standard reference3,4 unless specified otherwise.

We con- ducted a biomarker-driven trial of selumetinib (KOSELUGO™; ARRY-142886), an orally active, allosteric mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 and 2 (MEK1/2) inhibitor, in pancreas cancer patients with somatic KRASG12R mutations. Methods In this two- stage, phase II study (NCT03040986) patients with advanced pancreas cancer harboring somatic KRASG12R variants who had received at least one standard-of-care systemic therapy regimen received 75 mg selumetinib orally twice a day until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurred.

    CBCN’s 2012 Metastatic Breast Cancer Patient and Caregiver Survey Report: An online survey was distributed to patients living with metastatic breast cancer and their caregivers. No patients surveyed had experience with the treatment under review. Survey questions comprised of a combination of scoring options and free form commentary. Patients were contacted through the membership databases of CBCN and other patient organizations. -71 patients participated in the survey -16 caregivers participated in the survey Printed sources: A review was conducted of current studies and grey literature to identify issues and experiences that are commonly shared among many women living with metastatic breast cancer. 3. Disease Experience Metastatic breast cancer is the spread of cancerous cell growth to areas of the body other than where the cancer first formed. It is most commonly spread to the bones, but can include the lungs, liver, brain and skin. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is breast cancer that is estrogen-receptor-negative, progesterone-receptor-negative and HER2-negative. Accounting for 12-17% of breast cancers, TNBC’s have been shown to be relatively aggressive and display a high risk of metastasis and death within 5 years after diagnosis. TNBC is considered to be vastly heterogeneous and is often used as an umbrella term, encompassing a wide spectrum of entities with marked genetic, transcriptional, histological, and clinical differences. 1 A rare cancer that is more commonly associated with TNBC, is secretory breast carcinomas- a cancer that occurs due to an over secretion of mucin in the tumor. It is considered a subtype of invasive ductal carcinoma but is prone to metastasis and local recurrence.
