Moffit Center in Tampa finds preclinical superiority for pona in RET+ NSCLC...

As we await the results of two IST's for pona in RET+ NSCLC (UColo at 45mg & MGH at 30mg), evidence accumulates for its potential.

"Among cabozantinib, lenvatinib, ponatinib, and vandetanib, our data show that ponatinib is the most potent inhibitor of RET PTK. Treatment of lung tumors induced by KIF5B-RET in the transgenic animals resulted in tumor regression. Thus, ponatinib is an effective drug for treating KIF5B-RET-associated lung adenocarcinoma in this genetically engineered mouse model and is predicted to show anti-tumor efficacy in RET fusion lung adenocarcinoma patients. While the gatekeeper RETV804L and RETV804M mutations are less sensitive to ponatinib than the wildtype RET, ponatinib remains the most potent inhibitor. Thus, ponatinib appears to be the drug of choice for treating RET fusion-associated lung adenocarcinoma."
