Lim SY, Ferro-López L, Barquin E, Lindsay D, Thway K, Smith MJ, Benson C, Jones RL, Napolitano A. Efficacy and Safety of Ripretinib in Advanced Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors within an Expanded Access Program: A Cohort Study. Cancers (Basel) 2024; 16:985. [PMID: 38473346 DOI: 10.3390/cancers16050985] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2024] [Revised: 02/20/2024] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Ripretinib, a novel tyrosine kinase inhibitor used in advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) resistant to standard therapies, was assessed in the United Kingdom (UK) within an Expanded Access Program (EAP). A retrospective review of patients treated between January 2020 and October 2021 within the ripretinib EAP in our Institution was conducted. Clinician-documented and mRECIST 1.1 assessments were collected. The primary endpoints were progression-free survival (PFS) and time to treatment discontinuation (TTD). Treatment beyond progression (TBP), overall survival (OS), objective response rates and safety data were also analyzed. Survival curves were constructed using the Kaplan-Meier method, and univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed. All analyses were performed with R software. Overall, forty-five patients were included. After a median follow-up of 24.2 (95% CI 19.7-29.7) months, the median PFS of the group receiving 150 mg ripretinib once daily (OD) was 7.9 (95% CI 5.6-19.3) months. In the cohort of 22 patients with dose escalation upon tumor progression to 150 mg ripretinib twice daily (BD), the median PFS from BD was 5.4 (95% CI 2.8-9.3) months. Overall, median PFS and OS values for patients on ripretinib were 9.7 (95% CI 8.3-18.1) and 14.0 (95% CI 9.9-NA) months, respectively. TTD was similar to PFS. TBP was observed in about one third of all patients. Objective responses to ripretinib OD and BD treatments were observed in 16.7% and 10.0% of the patients, respectively. No new safety signals were identified. In conclusion, patients with advanced GIST receiving ripretinib in the UK within the EAP reported prolonged benefits, in line with the recent phase III clinical trials.

Exploring Perforated Jejunal GIST: A Rare Case Report and Review of Molecular and Clinical Literature. Curr Issues Mol Biol 2024; 46:1192-1207. [PMID: 38392194 PMCID: PMC10887764 DOI: 10.3390/cimb46020076] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2023] [Revised: 01/13/2024] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 02/24/2024] Open
Abstract
This case report details a rare instance of a perforated jejunal gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) in a 76-year-old female patient. The patient presented with acute abdominal pain and distension without any changes in bowel habits or episodes of nausea and vomiting. Initial diagnostics, including abdominal plain radiography and ultrasonography, were inconclusive; however, a computed tomography (CT) scan revealed pneumoperitoneum and an irregular fluid collection suggestive of small intestine perforations. Surgical intervention uncovered a 35 mm jejunal GIST with a 10 mm perforation. Histopathological examination confirmed a mixed cell type GIST with high malignancy potential, further substantiated by immunohistochemistry markers CD117, DOG1, and vimentin. Molecular analysis illuminated the role of key oncogenes, primarily KIT and PDGFRA mutations, emphasizing the importance of molecular diagnostics in GIST management. Despite the severity of the presentation, the patient's postoperative recovery was favorable, highlighting the effectiveness of prompt surgical and multidisciplinary approaches in managing complex GIST cases.
