Pralsetinib
DrugBank Accession Number
DB15822
Background

Pralsetinib, similar to the previously approved selpercatinib, is a kinase inhibitor with enhanced specificity for RET tyrosine kinase receptors (RTKs) over other RTK classes.3,5,9 Enhanced RET (Rearranged during transfection) oncogene expression is a hallmark of many cancers, including non-small cell lung cancer. Although multikinase inhibitors, including cabozantinib, ponatinib, sorafenib, sunitinib, and vandetanib, have shown efficacy in RET-driven cancers, their lack of specificity is generally associated with substantial toxicity.3 Pralsetinib (BLU-667) and selpercatinib (LOXO-292) represent the first generation of specific RET RTK inhibitors for the treatment of RET-driven cancers.1,3,9

Although a phase 1/2 trial of pralsetinib termed ARROW (NCT03037385) is still ongoing, pralsetinib was granted accelerated FDA approval on September 4, 2020, for the treatment of metastatic RET-fusion positive non-small cell lung cancer. It is currently marketed under the brand name GAVRETO™ by Blueprint Medicines.9

Pharmacology

Indication

Pralsetinib is indicated for the treatment of metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in adult patients who are confirmed to possess a rearranged during transfection (RET) gene fusion, as determined by an FDA approved test.9 It is also indicated in adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older for the treatment of advanced or metastatic RET fusion-positive thyroid cancer who require systemic therapy and for whom radioactive iodine is not appropriate.13 The indication for advanced or metastatic RET fusion-positive thyroid cancer was approved under accelerated approval based on the overall response rate and duration of response, and continued approval for this indication may be contingent upon verification and description of clinical benefit in confirmatory trials.13

Pharmacodynamics

Pralsetinib exerts an anti-tumour effect through specific inhibition of the rearranged during transfection (RET) tyrosine kinase, including multiple distinct oncogenic RET fusions, mutated RET kinase domains harbouring gatekeeper mutations, and in RET kinases with a variety of activating single point mutations.1,2,3,4,9 Due to pralsetinib's high selectivity for RET over other kinases, both in vitro and in vivo,5 pralsetinib has been described as having a better safety profile compared to previously used multi-kinase inhibitors.1,2,3,4 Despite this, pralsetinib use may increase the risk of hypertension, hemorrhagic events, impaired wound healing, hepatotoxicity, interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis, and embryo-fetal toxicity.9

Mechanism of action

Rearranged during transfection (RET) is a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase containing extracellular, transmembrane, and intracellular domains whose activity is required for normal kidney and nervous system development.6,3 Constitutive RET activation is achieved through chromosomal rearrangements producing 5' fusions of dimerizable domains to the 3' RET tyrosine kinase domain leading to constitutive dimerization and subsequent autophosphorylation; the most common fusions are KIF5B-RET and CCDC6-RET, although more than 35 genes have been reported to fuse with RET.3,1,7 Constitutive activation leads to increased downstream signalling and is associated with tumour invasion, migration, and proliferation.2

Pralsetinib (formerly referred to as BLU-667) was developed through screening more than 10,000 agnostically designed kinase inhibitors followed by extensive chemical modification to improve its properties. Pralsetinib displays in vitro IC50 values for both WT RET as well as several mutant forms, including CCDC6-RET, in the range of 0.3-0.4 nmol/L, and is 100-fold more selective for RET kinase over 96% of 371 kinases tested.5 It is this specific inhibition of RET kinase that is associated with anti-tumour activity and clinical benefit in patients.5,8,9

Despite increased selectivity for RET over other kinases, pralsetinib has been reported to inhibit DDR1, TRKC, FLT3, JAK1-2, TRKA, VEGFR2, PDGFRb, and FGFR1-2 at clinically relevant concentrations. The significance of these findings remains uncertain.9

Absorption

Pralsetinib given at 400 mg once daily resulted in a mean steady-state Cmax of 2830 ng/mL (coefficient of variation, CV, 52.5%) and AUC0-24h of 43900 ng*h/mL (CV 60.2%). The Cmax and AUC of pralsetinib increased inconsistently with increasing doses between 60 and 600 mg once daily, with a median Tmax across this range of between two and four hours. At 400 mg once daily, pralsetinib reached steady-state plasma concentration by three to five days.9

Pralsetinib absorption is affected by food. A single dose of 400 mg given with a high-fat meal (800 to 1000 calories with 50 to 60% of calories coming from fat) increased the mean Cmax by 104% (95% CI 65-153%), mean AUC0-∞ by 122% (95% CI 96-152%), and the median Tmax from four to 8.5 hours.9

Volume of distribution

Pralsetinib has a mean apparent volume of distribution of 228 L (CV 75%).9

Protein binding

Pralsetinib is 97.1% bound to plasma proteins regardless of concentration.9

Metabolism

Pralsetinib is metabolized in vitro primarily by CYP3A4 and to a lesser extent by CYP2D6 and CYP1A2. Pralsetinib given as a single oral dose of 310 mg in healthy volunteers led to the detection of metabolites from both oxidation (M453, M531, and M549b) and glucuronidation (M709), although these constituted less than 5% of the detected material.9

Route of elimination

Pralsetinib is primarily eliminated through the fecal route (73%, 66% unchanged) with a small amount found in the urine (6%, 4.8% unchanged).9

Half-life

Pralsetinib has a plasma elimination half-life of 14.7 ± 6.5 hours following a single dose and 22.2 ± 13.5 hours following multiple doses.9

Clearance

Pralsetinib has a mean apparent steady-state oral clearance of 9.1 L/h (CV 60%).9

Toxicity

Pralsetinib administered to rats at 20 mg/kg (roughly 2.5-3.6 times the recommended human exposure) resulted in resorption of litters in pregnant female mice in 92% of pregnancies (82% complete resorption); resorption occurred at doses as low as 5 mg/kg (0.3 times the recommended human exposure). Both male and female rats given 10 mg/kg pralsetinib or more had observable degeneration within the testis/ovaries. In 28-day rat and monkey studies, once-daily pralsetinib resulted in histological necrosis at doses 1.1 or more times the recommended human dose and myocardial hemorrhage at doses 2.6 or more times the recommended human dose. Also, pralsetinib induced hyperphosphatemia (rats only, dose 2.4-3.5 times the recommended human dose) and multi-organ mineralization (dose 0.11 or more times the recommended human dose).9
