AROS-1: This phase I/II study is seeking to determine the best dose level, safety and effectiveness of a new cancer drug (NVL-250) in people with locally advanced solid cancersA Phase 1/2 Study of the Highly Selective ROS1 Inhibitor NVL-520 in Patients With Advanced NSCLC and Other Solid Tumors (ARROS-1)

Clinical summary

Summary

This study has two parts. Phase 1 will determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of NVL-520 in people with advanced ROS1-positive solid cancers. In this phase, NVL-520 will be given orally, daily. Phase 2 will determine the objective response rate (ORR) and effectiveness of NVL-520 in people with advanced ROS1-positive non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and other solid cancers. Phase 2 will have 5 cohorts. Cohort 2a will recruit people with ROS1-positive NSCLC who are naive to Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKI) therapy. Cohort 2b will recruit people with ROS1-positive NSCLC treated with 1 prior ROS1 TKI and no prior platinum-based chemotherapy with or without immunotherapy. Cohort 2c will recruit people with ROS1-positive NSCLC who have been treated with 1 prior ROS1 TKI and 1 prior platinum-based chemotherapy with or without immunotherapy. Cohort 2d will recruit people with ROS1-positive NSCLC who have been treated with ≥2 prior ROS1 TKIs and up to 1 prior platinum-based chemotherapy with or without immunotherapy. Cohort 2e will recruit people with ROS-1 positive solid cancers who have progressed on any prior therapy.
