      P2.11-010 - Phase I study of HM61713, a novel epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutant selective inhibitor, in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients having an activating EGFR mutation but failed to prior EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy. (ID 1048)

      • Abstract

      Background
      NSCLC patients having an activating EGFR mutation initially responded well to EGFR TKI but most of them experienced progressive disease due to various resistance mechanisms including T790M (~50% of cases) mutation. HM61713 is an orally active, novel EGFR mutant selective inhibitor showing a strong anticancer activity in many lung cancer cell lines including T790M mutation harboring cell line. Therefore, HM61713 might provide the potential clinical benefit to those who have an activating EGFR mutation but have failed previous EGFR TKI treatment.

      Methods
      This is a phase I study using a standard 3+3 dose escalation scheme. NSCLC Patients with activating EGFR mutation and progressed after at least 2 prior chemotherapy regimens including EGFR TKI were eligible. The objective of this study is to determine the recommended phase II dose as well as to assess the preliminarily efficacy.

      Results
      To date, a total of 23 patients were treated with at doses of 75-250 mg/day. One patient at a dose of 200 mg/day experienced grade 3 drug induced idiosyncrasy and grade 4 elevation of amylase. The drug induced idiosyncrasy was skin rash of non-EGFR TKI type. The most common drug-related adverse events were desquamation, diarrhea, pruritus, and nausea; most were grade 1 or 2. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended phase II dose were not determined yet. Plasma concentration of HM61713 reached the peak 2-4 hr after administration and declined with the half-life of 8-12 hr. Among 21 evaluable patients, 2 patients achieved partial response (PR) and one of them had confirmed T790M mutation while 12 patients had stable disease (SD) including 11 patients showed tumor shrinkage. Accrual to this study is ongoing and updated data will be presented at the meeting.

      Conclusion
      HM61713 showed good safety profile and promising anticancer activity in NSCLC patients with EGFR mutation who failed to prior EGFR TKI therapy. These results support the therapeutic potential of HM61713 for NSCLC patients with activating EGFR mutations after development of resistance to EGFR TKI therapy.
