Garsorasib in patients with KRASG12C-mutated non-small-cell lung cancer in China: an open-label, multicentre, single-arm, phase 2 trial
Abstract
Background Garsorasib (D-1553; InventisBio, Shangai, China), a potent KRAS G12C inhibitor, has shown promising antitumour activity in patients with KRAS G12C-mutated (ie, Gly12Cys) non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in a phase 1 study. We report results from a phase 2 study conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of garsorasib in patients with locally advanced or metastatic KRAS G12C-mutated NSCLC.Methods This open-label, multicentre, single-arm, phase 2 trial enrolled adult patients with KRAS G12C-mutated NSCLC who had previously been treated with platinum-based chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors from 43 hospitals in China. Participants received 600 mg garsorasib orally twice per day. Tumour assessments were performed at baseline, at the end of every two cycles (of 21 days) for the first eight cycles, and at the end of every three cycles thereafter. The primary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) as assessed by an independent review committee (IRC) following the guidelines in Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours, version 1.1. Efficacy and safety were assessed in all patients who received at least one dose of garsorasib. This trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT05383898, and is active but no longer recruiting.Findings From June 17, 2022, to May 17, 2023, of 225 patients screened for eligibility, 123 patients were enrolled and treated with garsorasib. Of these 123 participants, the median age was 64 years (IQR 59-68), 108 (88%) were male and 15 (12%) were female. At data cutoff (Nov 17, 2023), the median follow-up duration was 7·9 months (IQR 6·3-10·4), and 82 (67%) of 123 patients had discontinued treatment. The IRC-confirmed ORR was 50% (61 of 123 patients; 95% CI 41-59). 117 (95%) of 123 patients reported treatment-related adverse events, with 61 (50%) experiencing grade 3 or higher events. The most common types of adverse events of grade 3 or higher associated with garsorasib were hepatic and gastrointestinal events, including increased liver enzymes, such as aspartate aminotransferase (21 [17%] of 123 participants), alanine aminotransferase (19 [15%] of 123 participants), and gamma-glutamyltransferase (28 [23%] of 123 participants); nausea (2 [2%] of 123 participants); and vomiting (2 [2%] of 123 participants). No new safety signals were identified, and most of the adverse events were well managed.Interpretation The results show that garsorasib has a high response rate, long duration of response, and an acceptable and manageable safety profile in patients with previously treated KRAS G12C-mutated NSCLC. Garsorasib potentially provides a promising treatment option for this patient population.Funding InventisBio.

Safety data from two studies evaluating garsorasib monotherapy in advanced NSCLC patients showed incidences of gastrointestinal adverse effects including nausea, diarrhea and vomiting around 20%.
“This phenomenon was also evidenced by the safety data reported in two studies evaluating garsorasib monotherapy in advanced NSCLC patients, in which the incidences of gastrointestinal adverse effects, including nausea, diarrhea and vomiting, were around 20%. 19,29”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
