Abstract

Background

Avapritinib (AVA) is a highly selective, potent inhibitor of KIT and PDGFRA mutant kinases, approved in the USA for unresectable or metastatic (U/M) GIST with PDGFRA exon 18 mutations, and has clinical activity in PDGFRA D842V-mutant GIST, against which approved TKIs in the European Union are not active.

Methods

This retrospective, indirect analysis compared the clinical efficacy of AVA in patients (pts) with PDGFRA D842V-mutant GIST (NAVIGATOR phase 1/2 study; NCT02508532) with the efficacy of commercially available TKIs for U/M GIST in pts from a retrospective natural history study (Study 1002). Primary endpoint was overall survival (OS) from start of reference treatment (AVA vs first TKI); secondary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) per modified RECIST version 1.1 criteria. Unadjusted and adjusted Kaplan–Meyer (K–M) survival curves were compared by log rank test and Cox regression-based test, respectively.

Results

In total, 56 (NAVIGATOR) and 19 (Study 1002) pts with PDGFRA D842V-mutant GIST were evaluated; the two groups’ patient characteristics were fairly balanced for sex, tumour anatomical location and duration of disease, when adjusted for imbalances by propensity score. At a median follow-up of 22 months (mo), median unadjusted OS was not reached (NR) in NAVIGATOR versus (vs) 26.4 mo in Study 1002; OS rate at 6 and 24 mo was 100% and 75% in NAVIGATOR vs 84% and 63% in Study 1002 (K–M curve comparison: P=0.0085). Inverse probability weighted-adjusted analysis showed median OS was NR in NAVIGATOR and 12.6 mo in Study 1002; OS rate at 6 and 24 mo was 100% and 77% in NAVIGATOR vs 56% and 38% in Study 1002, respectively (K–M curve comparison: P=0.0001). Median (unadjusted and adjusted) PFS was NR in NAVIGATOR and 3.4 mo in Study 1002. Unadjusted/adjusted PFS rates at 6 and 24 mo were 92%/93% and 77%/71% in NAVIGATOR vs 14%/9% and 7%/6% in Study 1002 (K–M curve comparison: P=0.0000).

Conclusions

Although our sample size was small, AVA demonstrated significantly more durable survival outcomes compared with other TKIs used to treat pts with U/M PDGFRA D842V-mutant GIST.
