Today's news release for brigatinib:
the confirmed intracranial objective response rate (ORR) was 53 percent in the Phase 1/2 trial, and the confirmed intracranial ORR was 67 percent in Arm B (brigatinib 180 mg with seven-day lead-in at 90 mg once daily) in the ALTA trial. Median intracranial progression-free survival (PFS) in ALTA Arm B was 18.4 months.

Alectinib CNS response:

Across both studies, 60% of patients had known CNS metastases at the time of enrollment, and of these patients, 51 had baseline measurable CNS lesions. The response rate among these 51 patients was 61%, and median duration of intracranial response was 9.1 months.

Alectinib, also an ALK inhibitor, has demonstrated activity in the CNS and the team sought to further evaluate its efficacy by studying data on 136 alectinib treated crizotinib-refractory patients with CNS metastases - 60% of the overall study population. Of this group, 50 had measurable CNS disease at baseline.

In the latter group, the objective response rate (ORR) at a median follow-up of 12.4 months was 64.0%, the CNS disease control rate was 90% and the median CNS duration of response was 10.8 months.

When all 136 patients were included, the corresponding ORR was 42.6%, the CNS disease control rate was 85.3% and the median CNS duration of response was 11.1 months. In the 95 patients with prior radiotherapy, the ORR was 35.8% and for those who had not had radiotherapy, it was 58.5%.

Ceritinib CNS response:

The median duration of response was 9.7 months and a median progression-free survival of 8.2 months (95% CI = 6.7–10.1) for patients with and without CNS metastases
In the 124 patients who started the study with brain metastases, ceritinib achieved an overall response rate of 54.0% (95% CI = 44.9%–63.0%) and a median progression-free survival of 6.9 months (95% CI = 5.4–8.4).

My take away:

PFS (months) for patients with CNS metastases:
brigatinib: 18 mos.
alectinib: 9-11 mos.
ceritinib: 7 mos.
