  14. Next Generation ALK TKIs LDK378

  15. Mechanisms of Crizotinib Resistance Target gene alteration (28%) ?? No loss of ALK (26/26) No EGFR or KRAS mutations (21/21) * Bypass track activation (45%) *

  16. LDK378: A Potent and Selective ALK Inhibitor • 2,4-diaminopyrimidine derivative. MW: 558.14 • Potent, ATP-competitive inhibitor of ALK Li et al., AACR-NCI-EORTC, 2011; Mehra et al., ASCO 2012

  17. Preclinical Evaluation of LDK378 Activity NCI-H2228 sensitive xenograft models • LDK378 caused complete tumor regression after 14 days of treatment • No growth of tumors for >4 months in mice treated with LDK378 50 mg/kg/day Li et al., AACR-NCI-EORTC, 2011 • LDK378 caused complete tumor regression when dosed at 25 mg/kg/day or 50 mg/kg/day in mouse xenograft tumor model derived from NCI-H2228 (EML4-ALK, NSCLC) after 14 days of treatment. • Remission was maintained for more than 4 months after 14 days of treatment with LDK378 50 mg/kg/day.

  18. Preclinical Evaluation of LDK378 Activity Crizotinib-resistant xenograft models ALK C1156Y mutation No ALK mutation • LDK378 at 50-100mg/kg/day has antitumor activity in different crizotinib-resistant models Li et al., AACR-NCI-EORTC, 2011

  19. Phase I study of LDK378 ALK+ lung cancer Resistant to prior ALKi MTD ALK+ lung cancer Naive to prior ALKi Any ALK+ cancer Non-lung ALK+ tumors LDK378 continuous oral dosing Primary objective: Determine the MTD Secondary objectives: Safety, pharmacokinetics, and antitumor activity NCT01283516

  20. Baseline Patient Characteristics Mehra et al., ASCO 2012

  21. Adverse events associated with LDK378 • SAEs related to LDK378 have occurred in 5 patients • Transaminase elevation (400 mg), vomiting (500 mg), dehydration (600 mg), and interstitial lung disease (750 mg) • All SAEs were reversible upon cessation of LDK378 • Two patients resumed treatment with LDK378 a lower dose level • Two had simultaneous progressive disease • Common AEs included • Nausea (59%), vomiting (54%), and diarrhea (48%), fatigue (21%), and dyspnea (16%) • Only one patient has discontinued treatment because of an AE Mehra et al., ASCO 2012

  22. Antitumor Activity of LDK378 in ALK+ NSCLC • Response rate 81% (21/26)in NSCLC patients treated at ≥400 mg who progressed following crizotinib • Responses include confirmed + unconfirmed per RECIST 1.0 (6 patients with PR awaiting confirmatory scans) Mehra et al., ASCO 2012

  23. Typical Responses to LDK378 After 6 weeks on LDK378 Baseline Mehra et al., ASCO 2012

  24. Typical Responses to LDK378 After 6 weeks on LDK378 Baseline Mehra et al., ASCO 2012

  25. CNS Activity of LDK378 After 6 weeks on LDK378 Baseline Mehra et al., ASCO 2012

  26. Summary of LDK378 • The MTD of LDK378 is 750 mg PO qd • The most common AEs are nausea, vomiting and diarrhea • LDK378 exhibits potent antitumor activity in patients with ALK+ NSCLC, particularly in those who have progressed following crizotinib • LDK378 is active in brain metastases

  27. Other Next Generation ALK TKIs CH5424802 AP26113

  28. CH5424802 is a Potent and Selective ALK TKI A C B Sakamoto et al., Cancer Cell 2011;19:679-90

  29. AP26113 is a Potent and Selective ALK TKI Crizotinib AP26113 ALK-negative cells EML4-ALK -L1196M Relative Cell Viability EML4-ALK Drug Concentration (nM) • Ba/F3 cells (ALK-negative) engineered to express EML4-ALK or the L1196M mutant • AP26113, but not crizotinib, inhibits viability of the L1196M mutant with high selectivity • Similar results obtained with multiple other mutants, including G1269S, S1206R, C1156Y, F1174C, F1245C, I1174T and L1152V Zhang et al, AACR 2010

  30. Phase I/ II Schema Phase 1/2 Study of AP26113 * Tissue must be obtained after development of resistance to ALK (cohort 2) or EGFR (cohort 3) TKI therapy

  31. Summary • Crizotinib is now a standard therapy for patients with advanced, ALK+ NSCLC - ORR 60% - Median PFS 8-9 months - Phase 3 studies More potent ALK TKIs like LDK378 may be effective salvage therapies for the majority of patients who relapse on crizotinib •

  32. Future Directions • Timing of next generation ALK TKIs Front-line use of next generation ALK TKIs Mechanism of action Overcoming resistance vs more potent target inhibition Resistance to next generation ALK TKIs Developing combination strategies - • - • •
