Pharmacology
Repotrectinib is a kinase inhibitor of ROS1 and tropomyosin receptor tyrosine kinases (TRKA, TRKB, TRKC); fusion proteins containing these domains drive tumorigenic potential through hyperactivation of downstream signaling pathways leading to unconstrained cell proliferation.
Lorlatinib is a kinase inhibitor with activity against ALK and ROS1, as well as multiple mutant forms of ALK including resistance mutations detected at progression on prior ALK inhibitors; antitumor activity is dose-dependent and correlates with inhibition of ALK phosphorylation.
