Clinical Trial Summary

• To evaluate the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of ERAS-007 or ERAS-601 in combination with other cancer therapies in study participants with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

• To determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and/or Recommended Dose (RD) of ERAS-007 or ERAS-601 administered in combination with other cancer therapies.

• To evaluate the antitumor activity of ERAS-007 or ERAS-601 in combination with other cancer therapies.

• To evaluate the PK profiles of ERAS-007 or ERAS-601 and other cancer therapies when administered in combination.

Description:

This is a Phase 1b, open-label, multicenter master protocol evaluating safety, tolerability, and antitumor activity of ERAS-007 or ERAS-601 in combination with other cancer therapies in study participants with advanced NSCLC. The study will commence with the following dose escalation cohorts: ERAS-007 plus osimertinib in study participants with advanced NSCLC harboring epidermal growth factor receptor-sensitizing mutation(s) (EGFRm); ERAS-007 or ERAS-601 plus sotorasib in study participants with advanced NSCLC harboring Kirsten rat sarcoma G12C mutation (KRAS G12Cm). Dose expansion will follow and will evaluate ERAS-007 or ERAS-601 drug combinations administered at the RD identified from each respective dose escalation cohort in study participants with advanced EGFRm or KRAS G12Cm NSCLC.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

• Age = 18 years.

• Willing and able to give written informed consent.

• Have histologically or cytologically confirmed NSCLC, with presence of EGFR mutation(s) sensitive to EGFR inhibitors, or KRAS G12C mutation.

• Measurable disease per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1.

• Adequate bone marrow and organ function.

• Have ECOG performance status of 0 or 1.

• Willing to comply with all protocol-required visits, assessments, and procedures.

• Able to swallow oral medication.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Concurrent treatment with any systemic anticancer therapy for NSCLC, including any approved or investigational agent.

• For participants with EGFRm NSCLC: prior therapy with a RAS, RAF, MEK, or ERK inhibitor.

• For participants with KRAS G12Cm NSCLC: prior therapy with a SHP2, ERK, or KRAS G12C inhibitor (depending on which cohort is being considered for enrollment).

• Palliative radiotherapy within 7 days of enrollment.

• History of unacceptable toxicity to treatment with osimertinib or sotorasib.

• Major surgery within the 28 days of enrollment.

• Unresolved toxicities from prior systemic therapy greater than NCI CTCAE grade 1 at time of enrollment, except for toxicities not considered a safety risk (eg, alopecia, vitiligo, and grade 2 neuropathy due to prior chemotherapy).

• History of another malignancy =5 years prior to first dose, except for patients who are disease-free for >2 years after treatment with curative intent or who have carcinoma in situ.

• Symptomatic and unstable brain metastases, or spinal cord compression, except for patients who have completed definitive therapy (surgery or radiotherapy), are not on steroids, and have a stable neurologic status for a least 2 weeks after completion of the definitive therapy and steroids.

• History of or clinically active ILD, drug induced ILD, or radiation pneumonitis that required steroid treatment.

• Impaired cardiovascular function or clinically significant cardiovascular disease.

• History or current evidence of retinal pigment epithelial detachment (RPED), central serous retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion (RVO), or predisposing factors to RPED or RVO.

• Any evidence of severe or uncontrolled systemic disease or evidence of any other significant clinical disorder or laboratory finding that renders the patient inappropriate to participate in the study.

• Pregnant or breastfeeding women.

• Contraindication to osimertinib or sotorasib use as per local label.
