Antitumor activity of YH42946, a potent tyrosine kinase inhibitor, in NSCLC harboring EGFR exon 20 insertion mutations (AACR 2025) - "It demonstrated superior activity compared to Mobocertinib (IC50 < 30 nM for ASV and IC50 < 30 nM for SVD), Furmonertinib (IC50 < 100 nM for ASV and IC50 < 100 nM for SVD), and Zipalertinib (IC50 < 100 nM for ASV and IC50 < 100 nM for SVD), and was comparable to Poziotinib (IC50 < 10 nM for ASV and IC50 < 10 nM for SVD). YH42946 is a potent small-molecule inhibitor that selectively targets EGFR ex20ins while sparing EGFR WT in preclinical models, offering potential therapeutic benefits for NSCLC patients with EGFR ex20ins mutations. Additionally, YH42946 has demonstrated effective inhibition of the EGFR pathway. Given these robust activities against EGFR ex20ins, YH42946 is anticipated to provide a significant therapeutic option for NSCLC patients harboring EGFR ex20ins mutations."

Biochemical analysis of EGFR exon20 insertion variants insASV and insSVD and their inhibitor sensitivity. (PubMed, Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A) - "Biochemical, structural, and cellular studies of a diverse panel of EGFR inhibitors revealed that the more recently developed compounds BAY-568, TAS6417, and TAK-788 inhibit EGFR insASV and insSVD in a mutant-selective manner, with BAY-568 being the most potent and selective versus wild-type (WT) EGFR. Cocrystal structures with WT EGFR reveal the binding modes of each of these inhibitors and of poziotinib, a potent but not mutantselective inhibitor, and together they define interactions shared by the mutant-selective agents. Collectively, our results show that these exon20 insertion variants are not inherently inhibitor resistant, rather they differ in their drug sensitivity from WT EGFR. However, they are similar to each other, indicating that a single inhibitor should be effective for several of the diverse exon 20 insertion variants."

ORIC-114, a highly selective, brain penetrant EGFR and HER2 inhibitor, demonstrates best-in-class properties against Exon 20 insertions and other atypical EGFR mutations (EORTC-NCI-AACR 2024) - P1/2 | " ORIC-114 is exquisitely selective in kinome analysis, demonstrating superiority to all current clinical small molecule inhibitors tested, including firmonertinib, zipalertinib and BDTX-1535. ORIC-114 demonstrated best-in-class properties, including brain penetrance, superior selectivity across the kinome, potent activity across atypical mutations in EGFR, including PACC mutations and Exon 20 insertion mutations, and evidence of molecular response in patients. ORIC-114 is a promising therapy for NSCLC patients with atypical mutations in EGFR, including those with active CNS metastases, and is currently being evaluated in a global clinical trial (NCT05315700)."

Modeling the Relationship of Clinical Safety Profile of EGFR Inhibitors with Wild-Type EGFR Inhibition in Cellular Model (IASLC-WCLC 2024) - "The EGFR inhibitors include commercially available proxy compounds of gefitinib, afatinib, osimertinib, mobocertinib, sunvozertinib, zipalertinib, BLU-945, BDTX-1535, etc. Clinical safety data are obtained from drug labels or publications, including all grades AEs and Grades ≥3 rash and diarrhea. The potency of inhibition of WT EGFR in a uniform nonclinical assay strongly correlated with overall rates and severity of rash and diarrhea observed in the clinical setting. These results may be useful in enhancing the understanding of the potential clinical safety profile of novel EGFR targeted therapies at the nonclinical development stage."

Efficacy of EGFR-Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors in Patients with NSCLC Harboring EGFR Exon 19 Insertions: A Report from the LC-SCRUM-Asia (IASLC-WCLC 2024) - "We also studied preclinical Ba/F3 models expressing EGFR -K745_E746insIPVAIK (Ba/F3-IPVAIK) and EGFR -delE746_A750 (Ba/F3-Del19) to investigate the sensitivity to 1st-generation (gen) (gefitinib and erlotinib), 2nd-gen (afatinib, dacomitinib, and poziotinib), 3rd-gen (osimertinib), and EGFR exon 20 insertion active TKIs (mobocertinib, sunvozertinib, and zipalertinib). The preclinical therapeutic window of Ba/F3-IPVAIK and Ba/F3-Del19 for all the 2nd generation TKIs were similarly favorable, whereas Ba/F3-IPVAIK had much unfavorable therapeutic windows to other EGFR-TKIs compared to Ba/F3-Del19. Conclusions : Our clinical and preclinical findings indicate 2nd-gen EGFR-TKIs are more effective than 1st and 3rd-gen EGFR-TKIs in patients with EGFR exon 19 insertions."
