简要总结
This research study is a Phase II clinical trial, which tests the safety and effectiveness of an investigational drug to learn whether the drug works in treating a specific cancer. "Investigational" means that the drug is being studied.
It has been found that some people with NSCLC have a change (mutation) in a certain gene called the RET gene. This mutated gene may help cancer cells grow. Only participants with a RET mutation will be allowed to participate. In this study, investigators are testing the strategy of using a study drug designed to inhibit or shut off growth signals that results from the mutated RET gene.
Ponatinib is an anti-cancer drug that has been used in research studies for other types of cancer. Ponatinib blocks several growth signals in cancer cells, including RET. In this research study, investigators are looking to see whether ponatinib is effective and safe in treating NSCLC harboring RET rearrangements.
详细描述
Participants in this research study will be asked to undergo some screening tests or procedures to confirm that eligibility. Many of these tests and procedures are likely to be part of regular cancer care and may be done even if it turns out that participants do not take part in the research study. These tests and procedures include the following: medical history, vital signs, physical exam, performance status, electrocardiogram, echocardiogram, routine blood tests, pregnancy test and an assessment of tumor by CT or MRI. If these tests show that a participant is eligible to participate in the research study, he/she will begin the study treatment. If a patient does not meet the eligibility criteria, he/she will not be able to participate in this research study.
Participants will take the study drug once a day, every day of the cycle. Each treatment cycle lasts 28 days (4 weeks). Participants will be given a drug diary to record the drug they take each day. The diary will also include special instructions for taking the study drug.
For cycles 1-20, participants will visit the clinic to have tests and procedures done at the time points listed here: On Day 1-physical exam, vital signs, performance status, electrocardiogram, routine blood tests, pharmacokinetic test, clinical exam and assessment of tumor. On day 15 of cycle 1-vital signs, routine blood tests and clinical exam.
For cycles 11 and on, participants will visit the clinic every 6 weeks. Some of these visits will happen on Day 1 of the cycle and some of these visits will happen on Day 15 of the cycle. At each visit, the following tests and procedures will be done: physical exam, vital signs, performance status, electrocardiogram, routine blood tests, clinical exam, and an assessment of your tumor.
Participants will visit the clinic when their study doctor takes them off study drug permanently. They will also visit the clinic 30 days after stop taking the study drug. The following tests and procedures will be done: physical exam, vital signs, performance status, electrocardiogram, routine blood tests, pregnancy test, clinical exam and a tumor assessment.

结局指标
主要结局
Overall Response Rate
时间窗: From the start of treatment until disease progression or death, up to approximately 2 years
The number of participants that achieved either a partial or complete response assessed using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST v 1.1) * Complete Response (CR): Disappearance of all target lesions. Any pathological lymph node must have reduction in short axis to \< 10 mm. * Partial Response (PR): At least a 30% decrease in the sum of the diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum diameters.
次要结局
- Disease Control Rate(From the start of treatment until disease progression or death, up to approximately 2 years)
- Median Progression-Free Survival(From study entry until disease progression or death, median duration of 3.8 months)
- 1 Year Overall Survival Rate(1 year)
- Number of Participants With Adverse Events(From the start of treatment until 30 days after the end of treatment (up to approximately 2 years))
