Initial US Approval

  • 20191,2

Indications

Adult patients with ROS1-positive metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) as detected by an FDA-approved test.1

  • Adult and pediatric patients older than 1 month of age with solid tumors that:
    • have a neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase (NTRK) gene fusion, as detected by an FDA-approved test without a known acquired resistance mutation
    • are metastatic or where surgical resection is likely to result in severe morbidity, and
    • have progressed following treatment or have no satisfactory alternative therapy.
    • This indication is approved under accelerated approval based on tumor response rate and durability of response. Continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in the confirmatory trials.1

Pivotal Studies

  • ALKA, STARTRK-1 (NCT02097810) and STARTRK-2 (NCT02568267)1,2
  • Key Inclusion Criteria: Eligible patients were required to have disease progression following systemic therapy or would have required surgery causing significant morbidity for locally advanced disease, measurable disease per RECIST v1.1, at least six months of follow-up after the first dose of entrectinib, and no prior therapy with a tyrosine kinase inhibitor.1,2
  • Treatment: Entrectinib 600 mg (94% of patients) orally once daily until unacceptable toxicity or disease progression.1
