Abstract

Abstract: Entrectinib is a potent small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor that targets oncogenic rearrangements in NTRK , ROS1 , and ALK . The consolidated results of 2 Phase I trials demonstrated activity in tyrosine kinase inhibitor-naïve patients along with substantial intracranial activity. In ROS1 -rearranged lung cancers, entrectinib results in durable disease control and prolonged progression-free survival. The drug is well tolerated and has a safety profile that includes adverse events mediated by on-target tropomyosin-related kinase A/B/C inhibition. Keywords: entrectinib, lung cancer, NSCLC, TRK , ALK , ROS1
