Description

[Technical field]

[0001] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 122,702, filed December 8, 2020, which is incorporated herein in its entirety for all purposes.

[0002] Technical Field KRas G12C Provided herein are combination therapies comprising an inhibitor (eg, Compound 1) and an EGFR inhibitor, as well as methods of using such combination therapies. [Background technology]

[0003] Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) is a central component of the RAS / MAPK signaling pathway, an intracellular network of proteins that transmit extracellular growth factor signals to regulate cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival. Mutations in KRAS are commonly found in solid tumors and can result in changes in several amino acids, including glycine 12 (G12), glycine 13, and glutamine 61, that are associated with tumorigenesis and aggressive tumor growth (Der et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 1982;79:3637-40; Parada et al. Nature 1982;297:474-8; Santos et al. Nature 1982;298:343-7; Taparowsky et al. Nature 1982;300:762-5; Capon et al. Nature 1983;304:507-13). Oncogenic KRAS mutations resulting in a G12 to cysteine ​​(G12C) change are common in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (~12%), colorectal cancer (CRC) (~4%), and other tumor types (≤4%) (Bailey et al. Nature 2016;531:47-52; Campbell et al. Nat Genet 2016;48:607-16; Giannakis et al. Cell Reports 2016;15:857-65; Hartmaier et al. Genome Med 2017;9(16); Jordan et al. Cancer Discov 2017;7:596-609).

[0004] For example, KRas, including lung cancer (e.g., NSCLC), CRC, and pancreatic cancer. G12C Advanced tumors with KRas mutations (hereafter referred to as KRas G12C Tumors with advanced KRas expression (referred to as KRas-positive tumors) are incurable and have a poor prognosis (Roman et al. Mol Cancer 2018;17:33; Wan et al. World J Gastroenterol 2019;25:808-23). G12CPatients with positive cancers may derive limited benefit from selected chemotherapy and targeted therapies, thus limiting effective available treatment options (Roman et al. 2018).

[0005] Therefore, KRas G12C There is a need for effective therapies and combination therapies to treat cancers such as lung, colorectal, and pancreatic cancers that harbor these mutations. Summary of the Invention

[0039] An "anti-EGFR antibody" is an EGFR inhibitor as defined herein, which is an antibody that binds to EGFR with sufficient affinity and specificity. In certain embodiments, the antibody has a sufficiently high binding affinity for EGFR, e.g., the antibody has a K of 100 nM to 1 pM. d Antibody affinity can be determined, for example, by surface plasmon resonance-based assays (such as the BIAcore® assay described in PCT Publication No. WO2005 / 012359), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), and competitive assays (e.g., radioimmunoassays (RIA)).

[0040] In certain embodiments, EGFR inhibitors (e.g., compounds described herein, or anti-EGFR antibodies described herein) may be used as therapeutic agents in targeting and disrupting diseases or conditions in which EGFR activity is implicated. EGFR inhibitors may also be subjected to other biological activity assays, for example, to evaluate their effectiveness as therapeutics. Such assays are known in the art and, in the case of anti-EGFR antibodies, depend on the target antigen and the intended use of the antibody. In one embodiment, the anti-EGFR antibody is a monoclonal antibody. In another embodiment, the anti-EGFR antibody is a recombinant humanized anti-EGFR monoclonal antibody.

[0041] As used herein, "cetuximab" is a recombinant human / mouse chimeric monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to the extracellular domain of human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Cetuximab is composed of the Fv region of a mouse anti-EGFR antibody with a human IgG1 heavy chain constant region and a kappa light chain constant region, and has an approximate molecular weight of 152 kDa. Cetuximab is produced in mammalian (mouse myeloma) cell culture. In one embodiment, cetuximab is marketed under the trade name ERBITUX®.

[0042] As used herein, "panitumumab" refers to a human IgG2 kappa monoclonal antibody with an approximate molecular weight of 147 kDa, produced in genetically engineered mammalian (Chinese Hamster Ovary) cells.

In one embodiment, treating refers to treatment with an effective amount of Compound 1 or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof, and erlotinib. In one embodiment, treating refers to treatment with an effective amount of Compound 1 or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof, and cetuximab. Treatment can be a first line treatment (e.g., the patient may not have been previously treated or has not received prior systemic therapy) or a second line or subsequent treatment. For example, a patient is successfully "treated" if one or more symptoms associated with cancer as described herein are reduced or eliminated, including, but not limited to, reduced proliferation (or destruction) of cancerous cells, alleviation of symptoms resulting from the disease, improved quality of life for those suffering from the disease, reduced doses of other medications required to treat the disease, and / or increased survival of the patient.

[0045] The term "delaying progression" of a disease refers to putting off, preventing, delaying, retarding, stabilizing, and / or postponing the onset of a cancer as described herein. This delay can be of varying lengths of time, depending on the cancer as described herein being treated and / or the medical history of the patient. As will be apparent to one of skill in the art, a sufficient or significant delay can in effect encompass prevention, in that the patient does not develop cancer.

[0046] As used herein, "effective amount" refers to the amount of a therapeutic agent (e.g., an EGFR inhibitor and / or compound 1) described herein that achieves a therapeutic result. In some examples, the effective amount of a therapeutic agent or combination of therapeutic agents is the amount of the agent or combination of agents that achieves the clinical endpoint provided herein. In one embodiment, the effective amount refers to the amount of compound 1 or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof and the amount of erlotinib. In one embodiment, the effective amount refers to the amount of compound 1 or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof and the amount of cetuximab. The effective amount herein may vary depending on factors such as the disease state, age, sex, and weight of the patient, and the ability of the agent to induce a desired response in the patient. An effective amount is also one in which any toxic or adverse effects of the treatment are outweighed by the therapeutically beneficial effects. In some embodiments, an effective amount of a drug may have the effect of reducing the number of cancer cells, reducing tumor size, inhibiting (i.e., slowing or stopping) the invasion of cancer cells into peripheral organs, inhibiting (i.e., slowing or stopping) tumor metastasis, inhibiting (i.e., slowing or stopping) tumor growth, and / or alleviating one or more symptoms associated with a disease. An effective amount may be administered in one or more administrations. An effective amount of a drug, compound, pharmaceutical composition, or combination therapy described herein may be an amount sufficient to directly or indirectly achieve a therapeutic treatment.

[0047] "Objective Response Rate" or "ORR" refers to the proportion of patients who experience a confirmed complete or partial response on two consecutive occasions ≥4 weeks apart, as determined by the investigator according to RECIST v1.1.

For example, a cycle can be for a total of 21 days, including administration of one or more agents described herein (e.g., Compound 1 and an EGFR inhibitor) on each day of the cycle. In another example, a cycle can be for a total of 28 days, including administration of one or more agents described herein (e.g., Compound 1 and an EGFR inhibitor) for 21 days and a 7-day drug holiday. A "drug holiday" refers to a period during which at least one of the agents described herein (i.e., Compound 1 and an EGFR inhibitor) is not administered. In one embodiment, a drug holiday refers to a period during which none of the agents described herein (i.e., Compound 1 and an EGFR inhibitor) is administered. The drug holiday provided herein can optionally include administration of another agent that is not Compound 1 or an EGFR inhibitor. In such cases, administration of the other agent during the drug holiday should not interfere with or be detrimental to administration of the agent described herein. In one example, a cycle as used herein refers to a 21 day cycle with no drug holiday.

[0053] "Dosing regimen" refers to a period of administration of an agent described herein, which may include one or more cycles, each cycle may include administration of an agent described herein at a different time or in a different amount.

[0054] "QD" refers to once daily administration of the agents described herein.

[0055] "BID" refers to administration of the agents described herein twice daily.

[0056] "Q1W" refers to administration of the agents described herein once every week.

[0057] "PO" refers to oral administration of the agents described herein.

[0058] "IV" refers to intravenous administration of any agent described herein.

[0059] Graded adverse events refer to the severity grading scale established by the NCI CTCAE. In one embodiment, adverse events are graded according to the following table: TIFF0007637777000007.tif56170

[0060] The term "patient" refers to a human patient. The patient may be an adult.

[0061] The term "antibody" specifically encompasses monoclonal antibodies (such as full-length monoclonal antibodies), polyclonal antibodies, multispecific antibodies (e.g., bispecific antibodies), and antibody fragments, so long as they exhibit the desired biological activity. In one example, the antibody is a full-length monoclonal antibody.

[0062] As used herein, the term IgG "isotype" or "subclass" means any of the subclasses of immunoglobulins defined by the chemical and antigenic properties of their constant regions.

[0063] Depending on the amino acid sequence of the constant domain of their heavy chains, antibodies (immunoglobulins) can be assigned to different classes. There are five main classes of immunoglobulins: IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM, some of which may be further divided into subclasses (isotypes), e.g., IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA1, and IgA2. The heavy chain constant domains corresponding to the different classes of immunoglobulins are called α, γ, ε, γ, and μ, respectively. The subunit structures and three-dimensional configurations of the different classes of immunoglobulins are well known and are generally described, e.g., in Abbas et al. Cellular and Mol. Immunology, 4th ed. (WB Saunders, Co., 2000). An antibody may be part of a larger fusion molecule formed by covalent or non-covalent association of the antibody with one or more other proteins or peptides.

[0064] The terms "full length antibody," "intact antibody," and "whole antibody" are used interchangeably herein to refer to an antibody in its substantially intact form, rather than an antibody fragment as described below. This term refers to an antibody that includes an Fc region.

[0065] The term "Fc region" is used herein to define a C-terminal region of an immunoglobulin heavy chain that contains at least a portion of the constant region. This term includes native sequence Fc regions and variant Fc regions. In one aspect, a human IgG heavy chain Fc region extends from Cys226, or from Pro230, to the carboxyl terminus of the heavy chain. However, an antibody produced by a host cell may undergo post-translational cleavage of one or more, in particular one or two, amino acids from the C-terminus of the heavy chain. Thus, upon expression of a particular nucleic acid molecule encoding a full-length heavy chain, an antibody produced by a host cell may comprise a full-length heavy chain or may comprise a cleaved variant of the full-length heavy chain. This may be the case when the last two C-terminal amino acids of the heavy chain are glycine (G446) and lysine (K447). Thus, the C-terminal lysine (Lys447) of the Fc region, or the C-terminal glycine (Gly446) and lysine (Lys447) may or may not be present. The amino acid sequences of the heavy chains comprising the Fc region are shown herein without the C-terminal lysine (Lys447) unless otherwise indicated. In one aspect, the heavy chains comprising the Fc region as specified herein comprise an additional C-terminal glycine-lysine dipeptide (G446 and K447) in the antibodies disclosed herein. In one aspect, the heavy chains comprising the Fc region as specified herein comprise an additional C-terminal glycine residue (G446). In one aspect, the heavy chains comprising the Fc region as specified herein comprise an additional C-terminal lysine residue (K447) in the antibodies disclosed herein. In one embodiment, the Fc region comprises a single amino acid substitution N297A in the heavy chain. Unless otherwise specified herein, numbering of amino acid residues in the Fc region or constant region is according to the EU numbering system, also referred to as the EU index, as described in Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th Ed. Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, 1991.

[0066] "Naked antibody" refers to an antibody that is not conjugated to a heterologous moiety (e.g., a cytotoxic moiety) or radiolabel. The naked antibody may be present in a pharmaceutical composition.

[0067] An "antibody fragment" includes a portion of an intact antibody, preferably including its antigen-binding region. In some examples, the antibody fragments described herein are antigen-binding fragments. Examples of antibody fragments include Fab, F(ab')2, and Fv fragments, diabodies, linear antibodies, single-chain antibody molecules (e.g., scFv), and multispecific antibodies formed from antibody fragments.

[0068] The term "monoclonal antibody" as used herein refers to an antibody obtained from a substantially homogeneous population of antibodies, i.e., the individual antibodies that make up the population are identical and / or bind the same epitope, except for possible variant antibodies (such variants are generally present in small amounts), including, for example, naturally occurring mutations or mutations that arise during the manufacture of a monoclonal antibody preparation. In contrast to polyclonal antibody preparations, which typically contain different antibodies against different determinants (epitopes), each monoclonal antibody of a monoclonal antibody preparation is directed against a single determinant on the antigen. Thus, the modifier "monoclonal" indicates the character of the antibody as being obtained from a substantially homogeneous population of antibodies and should not be construed as requiring production of the antibody by any particular method. For example, monoclonal antibodies used in accordance with the present invention may be produced by a variety of techniques, including, but not limited to, hybridoma methods, recombinant DNA methods, phage display methods, and methods utilizing transgenic animals containing all or part of the human immunoglobulin loci.

[0069] As used herein, the term "hypervariable region" or "HVR" refers to the regions of an antibody variable domain that are hypervariable in sequence and determine antigen-binding specificity, e.g., each of the "complementarity determining regions" (CDRs).

[0070] Generally, an antibody comprises six CDRs, three in the VH (CDR-H1, CDR-H2, CDR-H3) and three in the VL (CDR-L1, CDR-L2, CDR-L3). Exemplary CDRs herein include: (a) Hypervariable loops occurring at amino acid residues 26-32 (L1), 50-52 (L2), 91-96 (L3), 26-32 (H1), 53-55 (H2), and 96-101 (H3) (Chothia and Lesk, J. Mol. Biol. 196:901-917 (1987); (b) CDRs located at amino acid residues 24-34 (L1), 50-56 (L2), 89-97 (L3), 31-35b (H1), 50-65 (H2), and 95-102 (H3) (Kabat et al., Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest, 5th Ed. Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD (1991)); and (c) Antigen contacts occurring at amino acid residues 27c-36 (L1), 46-55 (L2), 89-96 (L3), 30-35b (H1), 47-58 (H2), and 93-101 (H3) (MacCallum et al. J. Mol. Biol. 262:732-745 (1996)).

[0071] Unless otherwise specified, CDRs are determined according to Kabat et al., supra. One of skill in the art will understand that the designations of CDRs can be determined according to Chothia, supra, McCallum, supra, or any other scientifically accepted nomenclature system.

[0072] "Framework" or "FR" refers to variable domain residues other than the complementarity determining regions (CDRs). The FR of a variable domain typically consists of four FR domains: FR1, FR2, FR3 and FR4. Thus, the CDR and FR sequences typically occur in the following order in a VH (or VL): FR1-CDR-H1 (CDR-L1)-FR2-CDR-H2 (CDR-L2)-FR3-CDR-H3 (CDR-L3)-FR4.

[0073] The terms "variable domain residue numbering as in Kabat" or "amino acid position numbering as in Kabat", and variations thereof, refer to the numbering system used for the heavy or light chain variable domains of the compilation of antibodies in Kabat et al. (see above). Using this numbering scheme, the actual linear amino acid sequence may contain fewer or additional amino acids corresponding to a shortening of, or insertion into, the FR or HVR of the variable domain. For example, a heavy chain variable domain may contain a single amino acid insertion after residue 52 of H2 (residue 52a according to Kabat) and may contain inserted residues after heavy chain FR residue 82 (e.g. residues 82a, 82b, and 82c, etc. according to Kabat). The Kabat numbering of residues may be determined for a given antibody by alignment of the antibody's sequence with the "standard" Kabat numbered sequence at the regions of homology.

[0074] The Kabat numbering system is commonly used when referring to residues in the variable domain (approximately residues 1-107 in the light chain and residues 1-113 in the heavy chain) (e.g., Kabat et al., Sequences of Immunological Interest. 5th Ed. Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Md. (1991)). The "EU numbering system" or "EU index" is commonly used when referring to residues in immunoglobulin heavy chain constant regions (e.g., the EU index reported in Kabat et al., supra). "EU index as in Kabat" refers to the residue numbering of a human IgG1 EU antibody.

[0075] The term "package insert" is used to refer to instructions customarily included in commercial packaging of a therapeutic product that contain information regarding the indications, uses, dosage, administration, concomitant therapy, contraindications and / or warnings regarding the use of such therapeutic product.

[0076] As used herein, "in combination with" refers to the administration of one therapeutic modality in addition to another therapeutic modality, for example, a therapeutic regimen that includes the administration of an EGFR inhibitor described herein (e.g., erlotinib or cetuximab) and Compound 1 or a pharma- ceutically acceptable salt thereof. Thus, "in combination with" refers to the administration of one therapeutic modality before, during, or after the administration of the other therapeutic modality to a patient.

[0077] A drug that is administered "concurrently" with one or more other drugs is administered on the same treatment day and, optionally, at the same time as the one or more other drugs during the same treatment cycle. For example, in the case of a cancer therapy administered every three weeks, each of the concurrently administered drugs would be administered on day 1 of a three-week cycle. Combination therapy

[0237] The following examples are offered by way of illustration and not by way of limitation. EXAMPLES

[0238] Example 1: Combination of Compound 1 with Erlotinib

[0239] The Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) gene encodes a GTPase that plays a central role in mediating cell proliferation and survival signaling. Mutations in KRAS resulting in amino acid substitutions at glycine 12 (G12), glycine 13 (G13), and glutamine 61 (Q61) are common in tumors and are associated with tumorigenesis and the maintenance of invasive tumor growth (Der et al. Nature 1983;304(5926):507-13; Parada et al. Nature 1982;297(5866):474-8; Santos et al. Nature 1982;298(5872):343-7; Taparowsky et al. Nature 1982;300(5894):762-5; Capon et al. Nature 1983;304(5926):507-13). KRAS G12C Mutations are common in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), colorectal cancer, and other tumor types (Prior et al. Cancer Res 2012;72(10):2457-67; Vogelestein et al. Science 2013;339(6127):1546-58).

[0240] Compound 1 inhibits KRAS G12C Selectively targets KRAS G12C Compound 1 is an oral anticancer agent that provides covalent and irreversible inhibition of KRAS. Compound 1 does not target KRAS, wild-type forms of KRAS, or other mutations in other members of the RAS family. G12C Treatment of positive cells or tumors results in a decrease in KRAS pathway signaling, inhibition of cell / tumor cell proliferation, and induction of apoptosis.

[0241] NCI-H2122(KRAS G12C) The in vivo antitumor efficacy of compound 1 (50 mg / kg, PO, QD) alone or in combination with erlotinib (50 mg / kg, PO, QD) was evaluated in NSCLC xenograft tumor models. Single-agent compound 1 treatment resulted in tumor stasis (93% tumor growth inhibition (TGI)), whereas single-agent treatment with erlotinib resulted in tumor growth inhibition of only 48% TGI. Improved antitumor efficacy (117% TGI) was observed with the combination of compound 1 and erlotinib.

[0242] Test Materials. Compound 1 (free base) was provided as a solution at a concentration of 8.333 mg / mL (expressed as free base equivalent) in 0.5% (w / v) methylcellulose. Erlotinib (Tarceva™) was provided as a solution at a concentration of 12.5 mg / mL (expressed as free base equivalent) in 7.5% Captisol. All concentrations were calculated based on the average body weight of 25 g for the nude mouse strain used in this study. Vehicle controls were 0.5% (w / v) methylcellulose and 0.5% (w / v) methylcellulose / 0.2% Tween 80™. Test agents were stored in a refrigerator set to maintain a temperature range of 4°C to 7°C. Dosing solutions of all treatments and vehicle controls were prepared once a week for three weeks.

[0243] Female nude mice, 9-10 weeks of age, with an average body weight of 24.5 g, were obtained from Charles River Laboratory (Hollister, CA). Mice were housed in standard rodent micro-isolator cages and acclimated to study conditions for at least 3 days prior to tumor cell implantation. Only animals that appeared healthy and had no obvious abnormalities were used in the study.

[0244] Human non-small lung cancer NCI-H2122 cells were obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (Rockville, MD) and harbored a G12C oncogenic mutation in K-RAS. Cells were cultured in vitro, harvested at log-phase growth, and resuspended in Hank's balanced salt solution (HBSS) containing Matrigel (BD Biosciences; San Jose, CA) at a 1:1 ratio. Cells were then implanted subcutaneously in the right thorax of 160 nude mice. Each mouse received 10 × 10 cells in a volume of 100 μL. 6 The tumors were grown in a 3-well plate with a mean tumor volume of 150–290 mm. 3 Mice were distributed into 10 groups based on tumor volume with n=10 mice per group. The mean tumor volume across all 10 groups was 213 mm at the start of dosing. 3 It was.

[0245] Mice received vehicle (150 μL of 0.5% MC and 100 μL of 0.5% MCT), 50 mg / kg of Compound 1 (expressed as free-base equivalent), or 50 mg / kg of erlotinib. All treatments were administered orally (PO) daily (QD) by oral gavage for 21 days. Tumor size and mouse weight were recorded and tumors were evaluated when tumor volumes reached 2000 mm 3 Mice were immediately euthanized when the body weight loss exceeded 1 h or when the weight loss was ≧20% of the starting body weight.

[0246] [Table 1]

[0247] Tumor volumes were measured in two dimensions (length and width) using Ultra Cal-IV calipers (model 54-10-111; Fred V. Fowler Co.; Newton, Mass.) and analyzed using Excel, version 14.2.5 (Microsoft Corporation; Redmond, Wash.). Tumor volumes were calculated using the following formula: Tumor size (mm 3) = (longer measurement x shorter measurement 2 )×0.5

[0248] Antitumor responses were observed, with partial response (PR) defined as a >50% reduction from the initial tumor volume and complete response (CR) defined as a 100% reduction in tumor volume.

[0249] Antitumor efficacy was evaluated in nude mice bearing human NCI-H2122 NSCLC xenografts after treatment with compound 1 (50 mg / kg, PO, QD) alone, compared to single-agent erlotinib (50 mg / kg, PO, QD), or in combination. Single-agent treatment resulted in tumor growth inhibition (TGI), with compound 1 resulting in 93% TGI and erlotinib resulting in 48% TGI, relative to vehicle control (see Table 2 and Figure 1). Improved antitumor efficacy was observed with the combination of compound 1 and erlotinib, resulting in 117% TGI and 3 / 10 partial responses (PR) (Figure 2).

[0250] [Table 2] CI = confidence interval; CR = complete response; PR = partial response; QD = once daily; TI = tumor incidence. Vehicle = 0.5% (w / v) methylcellulose; 0.5% (w / v) methylcellulose / 0.2% Tween 80™.

[0251] A combination antitumor efficacy study was conducted in the NCI-H2122 human NSCLC xenograft tumor model to evaluate the efficacy and safety of KRAS G12C We demonstrated that the inhibitor compound 1 suppressed tumor growth (93% TGI, no PR) as a single agent. Single agent activity with the EGFR inhibitor erlotinib also resulted in tumor growth inhibition (48% TGI, no PR). Combination of compound 1 with erlotinib resulted in improved antitumor efficacy (117% TGI, 3 / 10 PR). These data support the finding that the KRAS G12CWe demonstrate that combination of the inhibitor compound 1 with erlotinib resulted in improved antitumor activity leading to partial tumor regression in the NCI-H2122 human NSCLC xenograft tumor model.

[0252] Example 2: Combination of Compound 1 and Cetuximab in a PDX CR6256 Colorectal Cancer Xenograft Model in Female BALB / c Nude Mice

[0253] The in vivo therapeutic efficacy of the combination of Compound 1 and cetuximab was evaluated preclinically in the treatment of a subcutaneous PDX CR6256 colon cancer xenograft model in female BALB / c nude mice.

[0254] Female BALB / c nude mice were housed in standard polysulfone IVC cages. Mice were 5-9 weeks old at the time of initial inoculation. Compound 1 was administered PO at 30 mg / kg QD for 21 days. Cetuximab was administered intraperitoneally (IP) at 20 mg / kg BIW for 3 weeks.

[0255] Tumor fragments from stock mice were harvested and used to inoculate mice. For tumor development, each mouse was subcutaneously inoculated with a primary human tumor xenograft model CR6256 tumor fragment (2-3 mm in diameter) in the right hind flank. After tumor cell inoculation, animals were checked daily for morbidity and mortality. During routine monitoring, animals were checked for the effect of tumor growth and treatment on behavior such as motility, food and water consumption, weight gain / loss (body weight was measured twice a week after randomization), eye / coat matting, and any other abnormalities. Mortality and observed clinical signs were recorded in detail for each individual animal.

[0256] Tumor volumes were measured twice weekly after randomization in two dimensions using calipers and volumes were calculated in mm using the following formula: 3The tumor volume was expressed as: V = (L x W x W) / 2, where V is the tumor volume, L is the tumor length (the longest tumor dimension), and W is the tumor width (the longest tumor dimension perpendicular to L). Dosing, and tumor and body weight measurements were performed on a clean bench. Body weight and tumor volume were measured using Study Director™ software (version 3.1.399.19).

[0257] Tumor growth inhibition (TGI): TGI% is an index of antitumor activity and is expressed as follows: TGI(%)=100×(1−T / C), where T and C are the mean tumor volumes (or weights) of the treatment and control groups, respectively, on a given day.

[0258] The in vivo antitumor efficacy of compound 1 (30 mg / kg, orally, once daily) alone or in combination with cetuximab was evaluated in mice treated with CR6256 (KRas G12C ) in a colorectal patient-derived tumor model. Single-agent compound 1 treatment resulted in tumor stasis to regression (108% tumor growth inhibition [TGI]), whereas single-agent cetuximab showed moderate to slight tumor growth inhibition (74%). The combination of compound 1 with cetuximab showed improved combination efficacy (133%) compared to the single agents.

All animals were sacrificed 8 hours after the last dose (study day 21). Animals were measured twice weekly during the study. At the end of the study, tumors and blood were collected from all animals in the study. Tumors were split in half, and both pieces were snap frozen in liquid nitrogen in separate tubes. Blood was collected by cardiac puncture and processed to plasma.

[0299] [Table 8]

[0300] Example 8: KRAS is the most frequently mutated oncogene in up to 25% of cancers and is associated with resistance to select standard treatments and poor overall prognosis. Although selective inhibitors have been developed as anti-cancer therapies targeting other nodes in the RAS / MAPK pathway, the KRAS oncoprotein was thought to be undruggable until the recent discovery of the switch II pocket (Ostrem, et al. Nature 2013;503:548-51). This knowledge has led to the discovery of a novel inhibitor of KRAS, specifically KRAS G12C Covalent small molecule inhibitors aimed at targeting the mutations are being evaluated in early clinical development.

[0301] Other KRAS G12C Inhibitor: AMG 510 (sotorasib) is a KRAS G12CAMG-510 is a small molecule that irreversibly inhibits EGFR by locking it in its inactive GDP-bound state. AMG-510 is currently being investigated in ongoing clinical studies. Patients in these studies received a median of 3 (range 0-11) prior lines of anticancer therapy for metastatic disease prior to study entry. Overall, treatment-related adverse events were reported in 56.6% of patients, with 11.6% of patients experiencing treatment-related grade 3 or 4 events and 1.6% of patients experiencing treatment-related serious adverse events. Grade 3 events occurring in multiple patients included ALT increase, diarrhea, anemia, AST increase, and alkaline phosphatase increase. One patient experienced a grade 4 treatment-related ALT increase and one patient discontinued AMG 510 due to grade 3 treatment-related increases in ALT and AST. Although antitumor activity has been reported, there are adverse events associated with AMG-510. Patients had confirmed objective responses in 32.2% of patients with NSCLC, with a median response duration of 10.9 months (range 1.1+ to 13.6) in patients with NSCLC. Median PFS was reported to be 6.3 months (range 0.0+ to 14.9+) in patients with NSCLC (Hong et al. New Eng J Med 2020;383:1207-17).

[0302] MRTX849 is a KRAS G12C Mutation-selective small molecule being evaluated in clinical studies in patients with advanced solid tumors bearing KRAS mutations G12Cinhibitors. Recently, data from a total of 17 patients (including 10 with NSCLC and 4 with CRC) were reported, of which 12 patients had at least one on-treatment tumor evaluation (including 6 with NSCLC and 4 with CRC). Most patients had received ≥3 prior anticancer regimens prior to study entry (12 of 17 patients, 71%). The following treatment-related adverse events were reported in >10% of patients: diarrhea, nausea, increased AST, vomiting, fatigue, increased ALT, increased creatinine, abdominal distension, abdominal pain, increased ALP, anemia, anorexia, dehydration, dry mouth, dysgeusia, dyspnea, QT prolongation, hypomagnesemia, and rash. Grade 3 events included fatigue, anorexia, and dyspnea (1 patient each). Antitumor activity with PR was achieved in 3 of 6 patients with NSCLC and 1 of 4 patients with CRC across all dose levels evaluated (Jaenne et al. AACR-NCI-EORTC International Conference on Molecular Targets and Cancer Therapeutics October 2019).

[0303] Compound 1.KRAS G12C The specificity of compound 1 against KRAS, together with its mechanism of action, G12C These results in potent and irreversible inhibition of KRAS, which is expected to enable a broad therapeutic index that maximizes antitumor activity while minimizing treatment-related toxicity. G12C Specific therapy aimed at KRAS positive cancers G12C This could provide a more tolerable and effective treatment option for patients with advanced cancer.

[0304] In vitro and in vivo pharmacological studies demonstrated that compound 1 inhibits KRAS G12C It is a highly potent and selective covalent inhibitor of KRAS G12C than KRAS-negative cancer cell lines G12CThe compound demonstrates >20,000-fold selectivity in inhibiting proliferation of KRAS-positive cancer cell lines. Mechanism of action studies with compound 1 demonstrated that in addition to KRAS target genes such as DUSP6 and SPRY4, downstream MAPK pathway components such as phosphorylated (p)ERK and pS6 were inhibited, resulting in the inhibition of KRAS. G12C We demonstrate that compound 1 has potent single-agent activity and induces apoptosis in KRAS-positive cancer cell lines. G12C These in vitro and in vivo pharmacological studies demonstrate that IL-16 inhibits tumor growth in several preclinical xenograft models of KRAS positive lung tumors. G12C The present invention supports the use of Compound 1 for the treatment of patients with positive solid tumors.

[0305] The results of the nonclinical toxicology studies completed to date provide a robust characterization of the toxicity profile of Compound 1 and support the administration of Compound 1 in patients with cancer. Comprehensive nonclinical toxicology studies have been completed to evaluate the potential single and repeated dose oral toxicity, genotoxicity, phototoxicity and safety pharmacology of Compound 1. G12C The KRAS mutation is not present in healthy animals. G12C There are no pharmacologically relevant nonclinical species for inhibition.

[0306] Cetuximab is a recombinant human / mouse chimeric monoclonal antibody that specifically binds to the extracellular domain of human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Cetuximab is composed of the Fv region of a mouse anti-EGFR antibody with a human IgG1 heavy chain constant region and a kappa light chain constant region, and has an approximate molecular weight of 152 kDa. Cetuximab is produced in mammalian (mouse myeloma) cell culture. In one embodiment, cetuximab is marketed under the trade name ERBITUX®.

[0307] Cetuximab is approved for the treatment of several different solid tumor types, including metastatic colorectal and head and neck cancer. Erlotinib is approved for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), specifically NSCLC tumors with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) exon 19 deletion or exon 21 substitution mutation (L858R) as detected by an FDA-approved test, who have received first-line, maintenance or second-line or higher treatment following progression after at least one prior chemotherapy regimen. Erlotinib is also approved for the first-line treatment of locally advanced, unresectable or metastatic pancreatic cancer in combination with gemcitabine.

[0308] Initial Phase I clinical data from ongoing studies of AMG 510 and MRTX849 as single agents are G12C Inhibitors have been shown to be tolerable and have promising antitumor activity in patients with metastatic NSCLC and CRC (Janne et al. 2019; Hong et al. New Eng J Med 2020;383:1207-17). However, there remains a significant unmet need to use this class of inhibitors as single agents to improve the reported antitumor activity and durability in NSCLC and CRC, while, more importantly, maintaining their tolerable safety profile.

[0309] Rationale for combination therapy with EGFR inhibitors. Without being bound by any particular theory, based on a mechanistic understanding of the RTK-RAS-MAPK pathway, G12C Inhibition of the upstream KRAS G12C It has been hypothesized that inhibition of EGFR by either small molecules that inhibit the activity of wild-type EGFR or anti-EGFR antibodies may potentially enhance the inhibition of KRAS. G12CThe authors support this strategy by showing that EGFR inhibition synergistically enhanced KRAS inhibition (Lito et al. Science 2016;351:604-8; Canon et al. Nature 2019;575:217-23; Amodio et al. Cancer Disc 2020;10:1129-39; Hallin et al. Cancer Disc 2020;10:54-71). G12C Potential mechanisms for enhancing the efficacy of inhibitors include reducing nucleotide exchange to inhibit KRAS G12C (Lito et al. 2016) and KRAS G12C These include reducing the rebound enhancement of RTK signaling upon inhibition (Amodio et al. 2020).

[0310] In an in vivo mouse study in combination with cetuximab, treatment of mice with CRC PDXs with a combination of Compound 1 and cetuximab reduced tumor growth beyond that seen with Compound 1 alone. Non-clinical evidence (see Figures 3-8 and Examples 2-7) supports the efficacy of EGFR inhibition and KRAS in CRC. G12C The starting dose of cetuximab in combination with Compound 1 is 400 mg / m2 as a 120-minute IV infusion on Day 1 of a 21-day cycle. 2 initial dose of 250 mg / m2 as a 60-minute IV infusion, followed weekly 2 Potential overlapping toxicities of the drug include gastrointestinal toxicity and elevation of liver transaminases.

[0311] Combination with erlotinib Multiple KRAS G12CIn positive cell lines, compound 1 in combination with erlotinib demonstrated synergistic effects on inhibiting cell proliferation with corresponding reductions in pERK and pS6 that were greater than the effects seen with compound 1 alone. In an in vivo mouse study, a greater reduction in tumor growth in NSCLC xenografts was achieved with compound 1 and erlotinib compared to compound 1 alone. Non-clinical evidence (see Figures 1 and 2) supports the association of EGFR inhibition with KRAS inhibition in NSCLC. G12C The inhibitors of erlotinib show synergy between the inhibition of ERLOI and Compound 1. The starting dose of erlotinib in combination with Compound 1 is 150 mg orally QD in a 21-day cycle. Potential overlapping toxicities of the drugs include gastrointestinal toxicity and elevated liver transaminases.

[0312] Biomarkers. This study identifies biomarkers that predict response to compound 1 as a single agent or in combination with an EGFR inhibitor (i.e., predictive biomarkers), early surrogates of activity, associated with progression to a more severe disease state (i.e., prognostic biomarkers), and KRAS G12C Identify and / or evaluate biomarkers that are related to acquired resistance to inhibitors (e.g., Compound 1), related to susceptibility to the occurrence of adverse events, or that may result in improved monitoring or surveillance of adverse events (i.e., safety biomarkers), that may provide evidence of activity of Compound 1 in combination with EGFR inhibitors (i.e., pharmacodynamic [PD] biomarkers), or that may increase knowledge and understanding of disease biology and drug safety. Corresponding biomarker endpoints include relationships between exploratory biomarkers in blood, plasma, and tumor tissue and safety, PK, activity, or other biomarker endpoints.

[0313] Patients will be screened for a period of up to 28 days, followed by a treatment period and a safety follow-up period during which patients will be followed for safety outcomes for treatment-specific periods after their last dose of study drug or until they receive another anti-cancer therapy, whichever occurs first.

[0314] In the absence of unacceptable toxicity and overt disease progression as determined by the investigator, patients may continue treatment with Compound 1 until the end of the study.

[0315] All patients will be closely monitored for adverse events throughout the study and for treatment-specific periods after the last dose of study treatment or until the start of another anticancer therapy, whichever occurs first. Adverse events will be graded according to NCI CTCAE v5.0.

[0316] The starting dose of Compound 1 will be 50 mg PO QD. Single patient dose escalation cohorts will be treated with Compound 1 at escalating dose levels.

[0317] Patients include those with locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic refractory KRas disease who have disease progression or intolerance to at least one prior systemic therapy, which may include single agent or combination therapy. G12C Patients with NSCLC, CRC, or pancreatic cancer may include those with KRas positive tumors (e.g., NSCLC, CRC, or pancreatic cancer). G12C Screened for positivity.

[0318] KRas from tissue and circulating tumor DNA assessment G12C Approximately 12% of NSCLCs, 4% of CRCs, 2% of pancreatic cancers, and many other solid tumors (each with a prevalence of ≤4%) harbor KRas mutations. G12C Compound 1 has a KRas mutation. G12C It is a potent and highly selective inhibitor that targets KRAS, but not the wild-type form of KRAS, or other mutations in other members of the RAS family. G12COnly patients with tumors that harbor mutations are eligible to receive the combination therapy described herein. KRAS mutation status may be determined using the FoundationOne® CDx (F1CDx) Assay, a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved broad companion diagnostic (CDx) assay, the FoundationOne® Liquid CDx (F1L CDx) Assay, as well as other FDA approved (FDA 2020) or fully validated laboratory developed tests performed in a Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) validated or equivalently certified laboratory. Previous studies have demonstrated that KRas G12C The development of the mutation is an early event (amal-Hanjani et al. N Engl J Med 2017;376:2109-21), and analysis of archival tissues has demonstrated a potential role for compound 1 treatment in the treatment of KRas. G12C This suggests that it is a sufficient surrogate for selection of patients with positive tumors.

[0319] Compound 1 inhibits KRas G12C KRas, which locks KRasG12C in its inactive GDP-bound state by suppressing downstream MAPK signaling through alkylation of KRas G12C In preclinical models, compound 1 inhibited KRas G12C The level of alkylation and the extent of MAPK pathway inhibition correlate with response to Compound 1. Tumor tissue collection pre- and during treatment will allow for assessment of MAPK pathway inhibition and correlation of anti-tumor activity with Compound 1 treatment. The extent of MAPK pathway inhibition can be assessed using RNA analysis of MAPK target genes (e.g., DUSP6, SPRY4) or immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis of phosphorylated downstream markers (e.g., pERK, pS6). Additionally, tumor tissue biopsies during treatment will be used to assess the inhibition of KRas by Compound 1. G12C It may allow direct assessment of the level of alkylation. Assessment of these PD biomarkers may inform future dose selection.

[0320] Sequencing of genes associated with resistance to compound 1. DNA sequencing technologies such as targeted next generation sequencing (NGS) and whole exome sequencing may provide unique opportunities to identify biomarkers of response and / or resistance to compound 1. Sequencing of cancer-associated genes may lead to the identification of de novo and acquired resistance mechanisms to compound 1.

[0321] Protein, RNA and DNA analysis. In addition to mutational activation of proteins, changes in the expression levels of RNA or DNA can also modulate the activity of signaling pathways. RNA profiling of tumors allows for unique subtyping of patients enrolled in the study. Analysis of potential associations between subtype and patient outcome may identify subpopulations of patients most likely to respond to Compound 1.

[0322] Plasma samples for somatic tumor mutation analysis and other biomarkers. There is growing evidence that cell-free DNA obtained from blood specimens of patients with cancer contains ctDNA, which represents the DNA and mutational status of cells within the tumor (Diehl et al. 2008; Maheswaran et al. 2008). Assays have been validated to detect cancer-associated mutations (e.g., KRAS) from plasma. Results of these assays can be correlated with mutational status determined from analysis of tumor specimens. The use of ctDNA to monitor response to therapy is an area of ​​great interest and may enable early, non-invasive and quantifiable methods for use in clinical settings to identify specific therapy candidates and monitor the mutational status of cancer over time (Wan et al. Nat Rev Cancer 2017;17:223-38). Analysis of ctDNA collected at various time points during study treatment and after patients have progressed on compound 1 may help identify mechanisms of response and acquired resistance to study treatment.

[0323] Blood samples for next-generation sequencing. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology can generate large amounts of sequencing data. Tumor DNA may contain both reported and unreported chromosomal alterations due to the tumorigenesis process.

[0327] Investigational Therapeutic Preparation, Packaging, and Handling

[0328] Compound 1 is supplied as an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) powder capsule (PIC) formulation in three strengths: 5 mg, 25 mg, and 100 mg (free base equivalent). In addition, a film-coated tablet formulation in a dosage strength of 100 mg (free base equivalent) is also supplied for clinical use. Compound 1 formulations should be stored at or below 86° F. (30° C.) and protected from moisture.

[0329] To administer a dose of Compound 1 at home, the patient should be dispensed a sufficient number of capsules or tablets to last until the next clinic visit or for one cycle. The patient will self-administer Compound 1 as provided herein except when the patient visits the clinic. The patient should take Compound 1 at approximately the same time each day unless otherwise instructed. The patient will receive instructions regarding the number and strength of capsules or tablets to take according to the assigned dose level and schedule.

[0330] Unless otherwise indicated, Compound 1 should be taken on an empty stomach, i.e., food should be avoided at least 2 hours before and 1 hour after administration. There are no restrictions on fluid intake. Importantly, Compound 1 capsules or tablets are swallowed completely (without chewing) with a minimum of 240 mL (8 fluid ounces) of water. If the patient misses any dose of Compound 1 or spits out the capsule or tablet, the patient should be instructed to skip that dose and resume dosing at the next scheduled dose. Missed doses should not be made up.

[0331] Cetuximab is supplied in its commercial formulation. Cetuximab is administered as a 120-minute IV infusion at 400 mg / m on day 1. 2 10 mg / m2 as a 60-minute IV infusion every week for 21 days. 2 Cetuximab should be administered after Compound 1 administration.

[0332] Administration of cetuximab will occur in a monitored setting with immediate access to trained personnel and appropriate equipment and medications to manage potentially serious reactions. Prior to the first infusion, participants must be premedicated with antihistamines and corticosteroids. This premedication is recommended prior to all subsequent infusions. Close monitoring is required during the infusion and for at least 1 hour after completion of the infusion.

[0333] Erlotinib will be supplied as tablets in strengths of 25 mg, 100 mg and 150 mg. Erlotinib will be administered PO QD in 21 day cycles starting at 150 mg with a sip of water during which it will be administered simultaneously with Compound 1. All doses of erlotinib should be taken on an empty stomach (i.e., food should be avoided at least 2 hours before and 1 hour after dosing).

[0334] If erlotinib or cetuximab administration is suspended due to an adverse event in a given cycle, the next dosing cycle should not begin until erlotinib or cetuximab administration can be resumed. Thus, the current cycle may be extended beyond 21 days and the patient may continue to receive Compound 1. Day 1 of the next cycle should correspond to the time at which erlotinib or cetuximab administration is resumed.

[0335] Concomitant Therapy. Concomitant therapy consists of any medications (e.g., prescription drugs, over-the-counter drugs, vaccines, herbal or homeopathic remedies, dietary supplements) used by a patient in addition to the agents described herein from 7 days prior to the first administration of at least one agent described herein until the last administration of at least one agent described herein.

[0336] Permitted Therapies. Patients may take (a) anticonvulsants or warfarin; (b) oral contraceptives or other possible maintenance therapy as specified in the eligibility criteria; (c) antiemetics and antidiarrheal medications should not be administered prophylactically prior to initial treatment with study drug; (d) analgesics; (e) bisphosphonates and denosumab therapy for bone metastases or osteopenia or osteoporosis; or multivitamins, calcium, and vitamins C, D, and E supplements are acceptable.

[0337] Therapies with Caution. Medications given with caution due to effects related to CYP enzymes and Compound 1 include, for example, (1) strong / moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors (including but not limited to atazanavir, ritonavir, indinavir, nelfinavir, saquinavir, clarithromycin, telithromycin, erythromycin, troleandomycin, fluconazole, itraconazole, ketoconazole, voriconazole, posaconazole, aprepitant, conivaptan, fluconazole, itraconazole, ketoconazole, voriconazole, posaconazole, aprepitant, conivaptan, fluconazole, itraconazole, ketoconazole, voriconazole, posaconazole, itra ... (2) strong / moderate CYP3A4 inducers, including but not limited to rifampin, carbamazepine, phenytoin, oxcarbazepine, phenobarbital, efavirenz, nevirapine, etravirine, modafinil, hyperforin (St. John's wort), and cyproterone. Use of full doses of oral or parenteral anticoagulants for therapeutic purposes, as long as the INR and / or aPTT are within therapeutic limits (per institutional standards) within 14 days prior to administration of any agent described herein and the patient has been on a stable dose of anticoagulant for ≥ 1 week prior to the start of study treatment. The list of medications is not intended to be comprehensive.

[0338] Coumarin (Coumadin®, warfarin) is strongly discouraged during erlotinib therapy. If patients require anticoagulant therapy, the use of low molecular weight heparin instead of coumarin is recommended, if clinically feasible. In the absence of a clinically feasible alternative to coumarin, frequent monitoring of INR and prothrombin time should be performed.

[0339] Drugs that reduce gastric acid production, such as proton pump inhibitors or H2 receptor antagonists, have been shown to reduce erlotinib exposure. Therefore, coadministration of these drugs with erlotinib should be avoided. If the use of antacids is deemed necessary during treatment with erlotinib, they should be taken at least 4 hours before or 2 hours after the daily dose of erlotinib.

[0340] Patients receiving erlotinib should not tolerate chronic use of antiangiogenic agents and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) as these may increase the risk of GI perforation. Acute use of NSAIDs is permitted to manage fever or for the period during which erlotinib is being held.

[0341] Prohibited Therapies The use of the following concomitant therapies is prohibited during and for at least 7 days prior to the first administration of the drugs described herein: - investigational therapy within 3 weeks or 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter) prior to the first dose of a drug described herein - Concomitant therapies intended to treat cancer, whether FDA approved or experimental, including chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, biological therapy, herbal therapy, or hormonal therapy, except for the following: Hormone therapy with gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists or antagonists for endocrine-sensitive cancers (e.g., prostate cancer, endometrial cancer, hormone receptor-positive breast cancer); Hormone replacement therapy or oral contraception. ● Radiotherapy for unequivocal progressive disease, excluding new brain metastases, in the setting of a systemic response: Patients who demonstrate systemic disease control (defined as having received clinical benefit [i.e., PR, CR, or SD for ≥ 3 months]) but who develop brain metastases treatable with radiation will be allowed to continue receiving therapy with Compound 1 during the study until they experience either systemic progression of disease and / or further progression in the brain (based on the investigator's assessment); • Quinidine or other antiarrhythmic drugs; Initiation or dose increase of hematopoietic colony-stimulating factors (CSFs; e.g., granulocyte CSF; filgrastim, granulocyte / macrophage CSF; sargramostim, pegfilgrastim, erythropoietin, darbepoietin, and thrombopoietin) within 7 days prior to day 1 of the first cycle

[0342] Risks Associated with Compound 1. Administration of Compound 1 has been associated with diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, oral mucosal irritation, minimal to mild transaminase elevations, and phototoxicity.

[0343] Risks Associated with Cetuximab. Undesirable effects of cetuximab include skin reactions, which occur in more than 80% of patients, hypomagnesemia, which occurs in more than 10% of patients, and IRR, which occurs with mild to moderate symptoms in more than 10% of patients and severe symptoms in more than 1% of patients. The risk of serious infusion reactions with cetuximab administration may be increased in patients who have a history of tick bites or red meat allergies.

[0344] Risks Associated with Erlotinib. Erlotinib is associated with the following risks: skin toxicity, interstitial lung disease (ILD), liver injury, gastrointestinal (GI) fluid loss, GI perforation, and ocular toxicity. Current smokers should be advised to quit smoking as plasma concentrations of erlotinib are decreased in smokers compared with nonsmokers. The degree of decrease is likely to be clinically significant. Strong inducers of CYP3A4 may reduce the efficacy of erlotinib, while strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 may result in increased toxicity. Erlotinib is a strong inhibitor of CYP1A1 and a moderate inhibitor of CYP3A4 and CYP2C8, as well as a strong inhibitor of glucuronidation by UGT1A1 in vitro. See erlotinib SmPC for complete drug-drug interaction information.

[0345] Treatment Discontinuation. If Compound 1 is held for >21 days from previous study treatment due to toxicity, study treatment should not be resumed. Compound 1 may be stopped for up to 21 days due to toxicity of study treatment or unanticipated intercurrent medical events not related to disease progression.

[0346] Adverse Event. As defined herein, an adverse event refers to any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical trial subject administered an agent described herein in a combination therapy described herein, regardless of attribution of cause. The terms "severe" and "serious" are not synonymous. Severity refers to the intensity of the adverse event (e.g., rated as mild, moderate, or severe or according to NCI CTCAE), and the event itself may be relatively medically insignificant (such as a severe headache with no further findings).

[0347] Adverse events to monitor for include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomatitis, mucositis, hepatitis, or elevations in ALT or AST, elevated bilirubin or clinical jaundice, systemic lupus erythematosus, nephritis, events suggestive of hypersensitivity, infusion-mediated reactions, CRS, influenza-like illness, and systemic inflammatory response syndrome, atrial fibrillation, myocarditis, pericarditis, vasculitis, myositis, uveitis, retinitis, optic neuritis, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, bullous dermatitis, and toxic epidermal necrolysis.
