Treatment Arm 03: Entrectinib in Adult, Paediatric and Teenage/Young Adult Patients With ROS1 Gene Fusion-Positive Cancers.

Brief Summary
This clinical trial is looking at a drug called entrectinib. Entrectinib is approved as standard of care treatment for adult patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) which have a particular molecular alteration called ROS1-positive, and patients 12 years old or above with solid tumours which have another type of change in the cancer cells. This means it has gone through clinical trials and been approved by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) in the UK. Investigators now wish to find out if it will be useful in treating patients with other cancer types which have the same molecular alteration (ROS1-positive). If the results are positive, the study team will work with the NHS and the Cancer Drugs Fund to see if these drugs can be routinely accessed for patients in the future. This trial is part of a trial programme called DETERMINE. The programme will also look at other anti-cancer drugs in the same way, through matching the drug to rare cancer types or ones with specific mutations.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Objective Response (OR)
An OR is defined as the confirmed occurrence of either a Complete Response (CR) or Partial Response (PR) according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours (RECIST) Version 1.1 criteria (or immune related \[ir\]-RECIST or standard imaging criteria for specific disease e.g. Response Evaluation in Neuro Oncology criteria \[RANO\]). In patients with leukaemia, OR will be defined as the occurrence of CR, CRi (CR with incomplete neutrophil recovery) or CRp (CR with incomplete platelet recovery). The trial will report the proportion of patients with an OR and 95% credible interval.
Disease assessments to be performed up to 24 weeks from the start of trial treatment.
Durable Clinical Benefit (DCB)
DCB is defined as the absence of disease progression for at least 24 weeks from the start of trial treatment according to RECIST Version 1.1 criteria (or ir-RECIST or standard imaging criteria for specific disease e.g. RANO criteria) and, where relevant (e.g. for haematological malignancies), by standard bone marrow response assessment criteria. Alternative definitions of DCB based on different time points may be pre-specified for particular sub-cohorts if 24 weeks is not clinically relevant. The trial will report the proportion of patients with a DCB and 95% credible interval.
Disease assessments to be performed up to 24 weeks from the start of trial treatment.
Secondary Outcomes (13)
Duration of response (DR)
Disease assessment every 2 cycles of entrectinib (each cycle is 28 days) and at EoT. After 24 weeks, it can be done every 12 weeks, on discussion with Sponsor. Follow-up visits are every 3 months after last dose of entrectinib for up to 2 years.
Best percentage change in sum of target lesion / index lesion diameters (PCSD)
Disease assessment every 2 cycles of entrectinib (each cycle is 28 days) and at EoT. After 24 weeks, it can be done every 12 weeks, on discussion with Sponsor. Follow-up visits are every 3 months after last dose of entrectinib for up to 2 years.
Time to treatment discontinuation (TTD)
From first dose of entrectinib to discontinuation of trial treatment up to 5 years.
Progression-Free Survival time (PFS)
Disease assessment every 2 cycles of entrectinib (each cycle is 28 days) and at EoT. After 24 weeks, it can be done every 12 weeks, on discussion with Sponsor. Follow-up visits are every 3 months after last dose of entrectinib for up to 2 years.
Time to Progression (TTP)
Disease assessment every 2 cycles of entrectinib (each cycle is 28 days) and at EoT. After 24 weeks, it can be done every 12 weeks, on discussion with Sponsor. Follow-up visits are every 3 months after last dose of entrectinib for up to 2 years.

Study Arms (1)
Treatment Arm 03
EXPERIMENTALThis entrectinib treatment arm is for adult, paediatric and TYA patients with ROS1 gene fusion-positive malignancies.
Interventions
Adult and paediatric patients with body surface area (BSA) ≥1.51 m\^2 will receive entrectinib orally at a dose of 600 mg daily dose (three 200 mg capsules per day). Paediatric patients with BSA \<1.51 m\^2 will receive entrectinib at a dose of 100 mg (BSA=0.43-0.50 m\^2) or 200 mg (BSA=0.51-0.80 m\^2) or 300 mg (BSA=0.81-1.10 m\^2) or 400 mg (BSA=1.11-1.50 m\^2). Each cycle of treatment will consist of 28 days and patients may continue until disease progression without clinical benefit, unacceptable AEs or withdrawal of consent.
Eligibility Criteria
You may not qualify if:
- A. Confirmed diagnosis of a ROS1 gene fusion-positive malignancy, other than NSCLC, that has been identified using an analytically validated next-generation sequencing method.
- B. Patients must be able and willing to undergo a fresh tissue biopsy at baseline and blood samples for translational research. Note that for patients with haematological malignancies or neuroblastomas, blood, bone marrow aspiration and/or trephine or lymph node biopsy samples may be taken.
- C. Patients with a BSA of 0.43m\^2 and over.
- D. ADULT PATIENTS (≥18 years): Adequate organ function as per haematological and biochemical indices within the ranges defined in the protocol. These measurements should be performed to confirm the patient's eligibility.
- E. PAEDIATRIC PATIENTS (\<18 years): Adequate organ function as per haematological and biochemical indices within the ranges defined in the protocol. These measurements should be performed to confirm the patient's eligibility.
- F. Women of childbearing potential are eligible provided that they meet the following criteria:
- Have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test before enrolment and either:
- Agree to use one form of highly effective birth control method such as:
- I. Oral, intravaginal or transdermal combined (oestrogen and progestogen containing) hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation
- II. Oral, injectable or implantable progestogen-only hormonal contraception associated with inhibition of ovulation
- III. Intrauterine device (IUD)
- IV. Intrauterine hormone-releasing system (IUS)
- V. Bilateral tubal occlusion
- VI. Vasectomised partner
- Plus a barrier method if using a hormonal method: male or female condom with or without spermicide; cap, diaphragm or sponge with spermicide OR
- +30 more criteria
