Description

Tyrosine kinase inhibitor with activity against multiple targets
Used for ROS1-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and for solid tumors with a neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase (NTRK) gene fusion
May cause QT prolongation, cognitive impairment, mood disorders, dizziness, and sleep disturbances; use with caution in patients at risk for these conditions

Dosage And Indications
For the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). For the treatment of metastatic ROS1-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
NOTE: The FDA has designated entrectinib as an orphan drug for the treatment of ROS1-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
NOTE: Select patients for treatment based on the presence of ROS1 rearrangement(s) in tumor specimens; plasma specimens may be used if tumor specimens are not available. Information on FDA-approved tests for the detection of ROS1 rearrangements in NSCLC is available at www.fda.gov/CompanionDiagnostics.
Oral dosage Adults

600 mg PO once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Coadministration of certain drugs may need to be avoided or dosage adjustments may be necessary; review drug interactions. Treatment with various doses and schedules of entrectinib (90% received entrectinib 600 mg once daily) resulted in an overall response rate of 74% (complete response, 15%) in a pooled subgroup of patients with ROS1-positive metastatic NSCLC (n = 92) enrolled in one of three multicenter, single-arm, open-label trials (ALKA, STARTRK-1, and STARTRK-2). Seventy-five percent of patients had a response duration of 9 months or more, while the duration of response lasted for 12 months or more in 57% of patients and for 18 months or more in 38% of patients. Responses to intracranial lesions were observed in 7 of 10 patients with measurable CNS metastases at baseline and had not received radiation therapy within 2 months prior to study entry.

For the treatment of neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase-positive solid tumors.
NOTE: The FDA has designated entrectinib as an orphan drug for the treatment of neurotrophic tyrosine kinase fusion-positive solid tumors.
For the treatment of metastatic neurotrophic receptor tyrosine kinase-positive solid tumors that have either progressed following treatment or have no satisfactory alternative therapy, where surgical resection will likely result in severe morbidity.
NOTE: Select patients for treatment based on the presence of a neurotrophic tyrosine kinase (NTRK) gene fusion in tumor specimens; plasma specimens may be used if tumor specimens are not available. Information on FDA-approved tests for the detection of NTRK gene fusions in solid tumors is available at www.fda.gov/CompanionDiagnostics.[64567]
Oral dosage Adults

600 mg PO once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Coadministration of certain drugs may need to be avoided or dosage adjustments may be necessary; review drug interactions. Treatment with entrectinib resulted in an overall response rate (ORR) of 59% (complete response, 13%) in a pooled subgroup of adult patients with unresectable or metastatic solid tumors with an NTRK gene fusion (n = 54) enrolled in one of three multicenter, single-arm, open-label clinical trials (ALKA, STARTRK-1, and STARTRK-2); patients were required to have progressed after systemic therapy for their disease, if available, or would have required surgery causing significant morbidity for locally advanced disease. Seventy-two percent of patients had a response duration of 6 months or more, while 66% had a duration of response of 9 months or more, and 56% had a duration of response of 12 months or more. Response rates by tumor type were salivary tumors with an ORR of 86% (n = 7), breast cancer with an ORR of 83% (n = 6), non-small cell lung cancer with an ORR of 60% (n = 10), thyroid cancer with an ORR of 60% (n = 5), sarcoma with an ORR of 46% (n = 13), and colorectal cancer with an ORR of 25% (n = 4).[64567]

Dosing Considerations
Hepatic Impairment

Baseline Hepatic Impairment:
Mild hepatic impairment (total bilirubin 1.5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) or less): No dosage adjustment is recommended.
Moderate to severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin greater than 1.5 times ULN): The effect of moderate or severe hepatic impairment on the safety of entrectinib at the recommended dose is unknown. Monitor more frequently for adverse reactions.[64567]
 
Treatment-Related Hepatotoxicity:
Grade 3: Hold entrectinib. If hepatic function recovers to grade 1 or less (or baseline) within 4 weeks, resume entrectinib therapy at the same dose for the first occurrence, and at a reduced dose for recurrent grade 3 hepatotoxicity. Permanently discontinue entrectinib therapy if hepatic function does not recover to grade 1 or less (or baseline within 4 weeks) or for patients who are unable to tolerate therapy after 2 dose reductions.
Grade 4: Hold entrectinib. If hepatic function recovers to grade 1 or less (or baseline) within 4 weeks, resume entrectinib therapy at a reduced dose. Permanently discontinue entrectinib therapy if hepatic function does not recover to grade 1 or less (or baseline within 4 weeks) or for patients who are unable to tolerate therapy after 2 dose reductions.
ALT or AST greater than 3 times ULN with concurrent total bilirubin greater than 1.5 times ULN, in the absence of cholestasis or hemolysis: Permanently discontinue entrectinib therapy.[64567]

Renal Impairment

CrCl 30 to 89 mL/minute: No dosage adjustment is recommended.
CrCl less than 30 mL/minute: Entrectinib has not been studied in this patient population.

Drug Interactions

Adagrasib: (Major) Avoid concomitant use of entrectinib with adagrasib due to the risk for increased entrectinib exposure and additive risk for QT/QTc prolongation and torsade de pointes (TdP).

Mechanism Of Action

Entrectinib is an inhibitor of the tropomyosin receptor tyrosine kinases (TRK) TRKA, TRKB, and TRKC (encoded by the neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase [NTRK] genes NTRK1, NTRK2, and NTRK3, respectively), proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase ROS1 (ROS1), and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK). Entrectinib also inhibits the Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) and Tyrosine Kinase Non Receptor 2 (TNK2). The major active metabolite of entrectinib, M5, showed similar in vitro activity against TRK, ROS1, and ALK. Fusion proteins that include TRK, ROS1, or ALK kinase domains can drive tumorigenic potential through hyperactivation of downstream signaling pathways leading to unconstrained cell proliferation. Entrectinib demonstrated in vitro and in vivo inhibition of cancer cell lines derived from multiple tumor types harboring NTRK, ROS1, and ALK fusion genes. Entrectinib demonstrated in vivo antitumor activity in mice with intracranial implantation of TRKA-and ALK-driven tumor cell lines.

Pharmacokinetics

Entrectinib is administered orally. Both entrectinib and its major active metabolite, M5, are 99% bound to human plasma proteins in vitro. Entrectinib demonstrated steady-state brain-to-plasma concentration ratios of 0.4 to 2.2 in multiple animal species (mice, rats, and dogs). The active metabolite, M5, is the only major active circulating metabolite that has been identified; it has similar pharmacological potency to entrectinib in vitro. Circulating M5 exposures at steady-state in patients were 40% of the corresponding entrectinib exposure. The estimated apparent volume of distribution (Vd) was 551 L for entrectinib and 81.1 L for M5. The estimated apparent clearance was 19.6 L/hour for entrectinib and 52.4 L/hour for M5, with elimination half-lives of 20 hours and 40 hours, respectively. Steady-state is achieved within one week of daily administration for entrectinib and 2 weeks for M5. After oral administration of a single radiolabeled dose, 83% of the radioactivity was excreted in the feces (unchanged entrectinib, 36%; M5, 22%) with minimal excretion in the urine (3%).[64567]
 
Affected cytochrome P450 isoenzymes and drug transporters: CYP3A4, P-glycoprotein (P-gp)
Entrectinib is primarily metabolized by CYP3A4 (approximately 76%) to the active metabolite, M5. M5 is a substrate of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and BCRP. Entrectinib increased the AUC of midazolam, a sensitive CYP3A substrate, by 50% but reduced the midazolam Cmax by 21%. Entrectinib increased the Cmax and AUC of digoxin, a sensitive P-gp substrate, by 28% and 18%, respectively.[64567]

Oral Route

The pharmacokinetics of entrectinib and M5 are linear and are not dose-dependent or time-dependent. The mean AUC of entrectinib and M5 after the first dose is 31,800 nanoMolar x hour (CV, 48%) and 10,200 nanoMolar x hour (CV, 82%), respectively. The mean Cmax of entrectinib and M5 after the first dose is 2,250 nanoMolar (CV, 58%) and 622 nanoMolar (CV, 79%), respectively. The mean AUC of entrectinib and M5 at steady-state is 48,000 nanoMolar x hour (CV, 77%) and 24,000 nanoMolar x hour (CV, 97%), respectively. The mean Cmax of entrectinib and M5 at steady-state is 3,130 nanoMolar (CV, 80%) and 1,250 nanoMolar (CV, 90%), respectively. The accumulation ratio of entrectinib and M5 is 1.55 (CV, 49%) and 2.84 (CV, 93%), respectively. Maximum entrectinib plasma concentrations are reached 4 to 6 hours after oral administration of a single dose (Tmax).
 
A high-fat, high-calorie meal (approximately 800 to 1,000 calories with 50% fat) did not have a significant effect on the exposure of entrectinib capsules. The difference in entrectinib exposure for entrectinib pellets and capsules was not clinically significant after a light meal (250 calories; 25% fat) in healthy subjects. Exposure of entrectinib capsules as a suspension (mixed with water or milk and administered orally or through a nasogastric or gastric tube) was not significantly different compared to administration of intact entrectinib capsules in healthy subjects under fasted conditions. Coadministration with lansoprazole reduced the AUC of entrectinib capsules by 25% and the Cmax by 23%. Coadministration with lansoprazole increased the AUC of entrectinib capsules as oral suspension in water by 25% and the Cmax by 17%. These changes are not likely to be clinically significant.

Pregnancy And Lactation
Pregnancy

Based on literature reports in humans with congenital mutations leading to changes in TRK signaling, animal studies, and its mechanism of action, entrectinib can cause fetal harm or death when administered during pregnancy. Pregnancy should be avoided by females of reproductive potential during entrectinib treatment and for at least 5 weeks after the final dose. Women who are pregnant or who become pregnant while receiving entrectinib should be apprised of the potential hazard to the fetus. There are no available data on the use of entrectinib in pregnant women. Published reports of individuals with congenital mutations in TRK pathway proteins suggest that decreases in TRK-mediated signaling are correlated with obesity, developmental delays, cognitive impairment, insensitivity to pain, and anhidrosis. Administration of entrectinib to pregnant rats during organogenesis resulted in body closure defects (e.g., omphalocele and gastroschisis) and malformations of the vertebrae, ribs, and limbs (micromelia and adactyly) at maternal exposures approximately 2.7 times the human exposure at the recommended dose (600 mg); embryolethality did not occur. Lower fetal weight and reduced skeletal ossification occurred at approximately 0.2 and 0.9 times the human exposure at the recommended dose, respectively.

Due to the potential for serious adverse reactions in a nursing infant from entrectinib, advise women to discontinue breast-feeding during treatment and for 7 days after the final dose. It is not known whether entrectinib is present in human milk, although many drugs are excreted in human milk.[64567]
