Abstract

This multicenter, first-in-human Phase 1 study (NCT04956640) evaluated olomorasib (LY3537982), a next-generation KRAS G12C inhibitor designed to enhance target occupancy at low absolute exposures. In total, data from 195 patients are reported: Phase 1a dose escalation (n = 112) assessed olomorasib monotherapy at 50, 100, 150 or 200 mg BID across KRAS G12C-mutant advanced solid tumors; the primary objective was to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) based on dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs). No DLTs occurred, and 150 mg BID was selected as the RP2D. The primary objective for the Phase 1b dose expansion (n = 83) was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of olomorasib in specific KRAS G12C-mutant tumor types. Olomorasib was well tolerated, with predominantly grade 1-2 treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) and infrequent grade 3 TRAEs; no grade 4/5 TRAEs occurred. Secondary objectives evaluated the antitumor activity of olomorasib. Among 168 efficacy-evaluable patients, the ORR and median PFS were both higher in non-CRC solid tumors compared to CRC, including in patients with NSCLC who previously received a KRAS G12C inhibitor. Intracranial responses were observed in patients with untreated, active brain metastases. This may support the potential of next-generation KRAS G12C inhibitors to overcome limitations of earlier agents and justify further investigation of combination therapy.
