TAS6417/CLN-081 Is a Pan-Mutation-Selective EGFR Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor with a Broad Spectrum of Preclinical Activity against Clinically Relevant EGFR Mutations.

ABSTRACT: Despite the worldwide approval of three generations of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) for advanced non-small cell lung cancers with EGFR mutations, no TKI with a broad spectrum of activity against all clinically relevant mutations is currently available. In this study, we sought to evaluate a covalent mutation-specific EGFR TKI, TAS6417 (also named CLN-081), with the broadest level of activity against EGFR mutations with a prevalence of ≥1%. Lung cancer and genetically engineered cell lines, as well as murine xenograft models were used to evaluate the efficacy of TAS6417 and other approved/in-development EGFR TKIs (erlotinib, afatinib, osimertinib, and poziotinib). We demonstrate that TAS6417 is a robust inhibitor against the most common EGFR mutations (exon 19
