Avapritinib-based SAR studies unveil a binding pocket in KIT and PDGFRA. (PubMed, Nat Commun)
Against this background, we solve the crystal structures of avapritinib in complex with wild-type and mutant PDGFRA and stem cell factor receptor (KIT), which provide evidence and understanding of inhibitor binding and lead to the identification of a sub-pocket (Gα-pocket). We utilize this information to design, synthesize and characterize avapritinib derivatives for the determination of key pharmacophoric features to overcome drug resistance and limit potential blood-brain barrier penetration.

GENOMIC ALTERATIONS IN ADVANCED GASTROINTESTINAL STROMAL TUMORS AS REVEALED BY COMPREHENSIVE GENOMIC PROFILING TESTS (CTOS 2023)
Fifty-four patients (38%) underwent CGP tests using specimens obtained before initiating treatment with imatinib and 90 (63%) using specimens obtained after imatinib. The present study highlights that approximately 25% and 50% of patients in each KIT/PDGFRA and wild-type group exhibit targetable GAs, thereby illustrating the clinical utility of CGP tests in identifying therapeutic targets in advanced GISTs.

EFFICACY OF RIPRETINIB IN A MULTICENTER EXPANDED ACCESS PROGRAM IN PATIENTS WITH ADVANCED GASTROINTESTINAL STROMAL TUMORS HARBOURING NON-KIT EXON 11 MUTATIONS. (CTOS 2023)
Objective: There remains an unmet need for effective and well tolerated systemic therapy for metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) after disease progression on imatinib is challenging. In the real world setting, ripretinib has durable benefit in metastatic GISTs harbouring non KIT exon 11 primary mutations. Ripretinib at a dose of 150 mg BD can be safely administered. Ripretinib is generally well tolerated with toxicity profile consistent with previous reports.

CLINICO-GENOMIC ANALYSIS OF KIT/PDGFRA/SDH WILD-TYPE GASTROINTESTINAL STROMAL TUMORS IDENTIFIES POTENTIAL DRIVER MUTATIONS (CTOS 2023)
The patient with ETV6-NTRK3 fusion was treated with larotrectinib for 28.7 months prior to progression, likely due to acquired NTRK3 gatekeeper mutation (F617L) rendering resistance to larotrectinib, then was on a second generation NTRK inhibitor, selitrectinib, for 16.5 months prior to progression. Triple negative GISTs comprise a diverse cohort with different driver mutations. Compared to KIT/PDGFRA mutant GIST, limited benefit was observed with imatinib in triple negative GIST. In depth molecular profiling can be helpful in identifying driver mutations and guiding therapy.

Deep learning predicts patients outcome and mutations from digitized histology slides in gastrointestinal stromal tumor. (PubMed, NPJ Precis Oncol)
DL models yielded comparable results to the Miettinen classification for relapse-free-survival prediction in localized GIST without adjuvant Imatinib (C-index=0.83 in cross-validation and 0.72 for independent testing)...Additionally, novel histological criteria predictive of patients' outcome and mutations were identified by reviewing the tiles selected by the models. As a proof of concept, our study showed the possibility of implementing DL with digitized WSI and may represent a reproducible way to improve tailoring therapy and precision medicine for patients with GIST.

Wild-type gastrointestinal stromal tumors with NTRK gene fusions (ESMO-GI 2023)
The incidence of NTRK fusion in GIST is extremely low (<1%), but an increased incidence has been reported in wild-type GIST (6% in this study and 5% to 25% in other studies), which established the necessity of detecting NTRK fusion in wild-type GIST. NGS or FISH may be preferred to Pan-TRK IHC to diagnose NTRK fusion GIST. Compared with classic GIST, NTRK fusion GIST showed significant difference in clinicopathological features: more common in men, younger at diagnosis, more common in colorectum and higher recurrence risk, which may indicate a higher malignant tendency.

Outcomes in patients with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumor who did not have baseline ctDNA detected in the INTRIGUE study. (ASCO 2023)
Background: Ripretinib is a switch-control tyrosine kinase inhibitor approved for patients (pts) with gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) who received prior treatment with ≥3 kinase inhibitors, including imatinib. Pts with ctDNA-ND had better efficacy outcomes vs pts with ctDNA-D in both treatment arms; PFS was numerically higher with ripretinib vs sunitinib in pts with ctDNA-ND. Although little is known about the biology driving ctDNA in GIST, these data suggest pts may have improved outcomes and different treatment sensitivity based on ctDNA detectability. Clinical trial information: NCT03673501.

Clinical response to the PDGFRα inhibitor avapritinib in high-grade glioma patients (AACR 2023)
In summary, we report that avapritinib is a selective, CNS-penetrant small molecule inhibitor of PDGFRA that shows potent activity in preclinical models and produces promising clinical responses with good tolerability in patients with high-grade glioma. This suggests a promising role for avapritinib therapy in this population with previously dismal outcomes.

Expanded genetic testing of GIST patients identifies high proportion of non-syndromic patients with germline alterations. (PubMed, NPJ Precis Oncol)
P/LP variants in certain genes (e.g., BRCA1/2, SDHB) identified in tumor-only sequencing of GISTs were almost exclusively germline in origin. Our results provide guidance for genetic testing of GIST patients and indicate that germline testing should be offered to all patients with KIT/PDGFRA-wildtype GISTs regardless of their history of syndromic features.

Expanding Molecular Spectrum of Quadruple Wild-type GIST and GIST-like Tumors: NGS study of a Series of 17 Cases (USCAP 2023)
Our study revealed 6 new cases of quadruple wild-type GIST or GIST-like tumors with possible oncogenic driver alterations (2.4 % of all our archival cases of GIST). While the case with BCOR-CCNB3 fusion rather represents a CD117-positive GIST-like BCOR -rearranged sarcoma, the remaining 5 cases probably belong to the category of true quadruple wild-type GIST. Whereas mutations in MAX and TP53 were already described previously, we are not aware of any study reporting on mutations of ATM , GNAQ and NUP93 in GIST.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors caused by novel germline variants in SDHB and KIT: a report of two cases and literature review. (PubMed, Clin J Gastroenterol)
The first case is a 28-year-old female who developed multiple gastric GISTs with widespread abdominal metastases that were resistant to imatinib...Next-generation sequencing revealed a germline KIT exon 17 mutation (NM_000222.3, c.2459A > T, p.D820V). These cases highlight the diverse clinical presentations of patients with germline variants and raise several important points about the diagnosis and management of these patients, in particular: mutation in the SDH family of genes (somatic or germline) should be suspected in KIT and PDGFRA wild-type tumors; germline testing should be considered in patients with multiple GISTs or those who present with disease at a young age; and somatic next-generation sequencing cannot only help identify optimal therapy in all patients with GISTs but also help guide referral to Medical Genetics for appropriate patients.

PHASE I RESULTS FROM A MULTI-PHASE COMPREHENSIVE GENOMIC SEQUENCING TUMOR STUDY IN GASTROINTESTINAL STROMAL TUMOR PATIENTS (CTOS 2022)
Imatinib, one of the frequently used therapies for GIST, has demonstrated low sensitivity among KIT/PDGFRA wildtype GISTs... Utilizing NGS based CGP is a crucial step in understanding and identifying relevant biomarkers including tumor growth drivers to aid in the treatment decision for optimal patient outcomes. CGP provides relevant data for conducting a more accurate, individualized treatment plan for patients, and prevents patients from undergoing unnecessary therapies that will not work for their respective mutation. Furthermore, this approach accelerates adoption of precision oncology and aids future drug discovery and development programs specifically for GIST patients.

The discovery of imatinib with promising anti-tumor effect and successive tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI), including second-line sunitinib and third-line regorafenib, revolutionized the management of advanced and metastatic GIST over the past two decades. Recently, ripretinib and avapritinib were approved for the fourth line setting and for PDGFRA exon 18-mutant GIST in first-line setting, respectively...KIT/PDGFRα wild-type GISTs are generally less sensitive to imatinib and late-line TKIs. Recent studies demonstrated that targeting fibroblast growth factor receptor signaling may be a potential target for the wild-type GISTs.

Correlation of treatment outcome in sanger/RT‑qPCR KIT/PDGFRA wild‑type metastatic gastrointestinal stromal tumors with next‑generation sequencing results: A single‑center report. (PubMed, Oncol Rep)
Their outcome was universally poor. The reliability of RT‑qPCR and direct Sanger sequencing results in this setting is therefore insufficient and it is recommended that NGS becomes a requirement for treatment decision at least in KIT/PDGFRA/BRAF WT GIST as determined by RT‑qPCR and Sanger sequencing.

Treatment of Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GISTs): A Focus on Younger Patients. (PubMed, Cancers (Basel))
The optimal treatment strategy should be established by a multidisciplinary team experienced in sarcoma treatment. The impact of treatment on the quality of life and daily activities, including the impact on work, pregnancy, and fertility, in this patient population should be especially taken into consideration.

Tropomyosin-Related Kinase Fusions in Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors. (PubMed, Cancers (Basel))
Our data provide insights into the molecular alterations underpinning KIT/PDGFRA WT GISTs. More effort should be devoted to improve methods to identify this distinct disease subtype within the KIT/PDGFRA WT GIST group.

New Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors for the Treatment of Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors. (PubMed, Curr Oncol Rep)
Based on this principle, two new drugs were approved in 2020: ripretinib in GIST patients after progression to all standard treatments and avapritinib, the first agent ever active in the multiresistant PDGFRA D842V-mutant GIST. Additionally, cabozantinib has also shown encouraging activity in imatinib-resistant GIST patients. Finally, novel agents targeting NTRK-driven GIST have emerged as a breakthrough for the treatment of a subset of KIT/PDGFRA wild-type GIST patients. GIST is a paradigmatic tumor model for the rational and successful development of molecularly targeted agents directed against driver mutations in cancer.

Fluorescent In Situ Hybridization Must be Preferred to pan-TRK Immunohistochemistry to Diagnose NTRK3-rearranged Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GIST). (PubMed, Appl Immunohistochem Mol Morphol)
Given the new therapeutic opportunity offered by anti-TRK targeted therapies to treat patients with advanced cancers including GISTs, it is worth to extend molecular analysis to NTRK fusions testing in KIT, PDGFRA, and BRAF wild type GISTs. Pan-TRK IHC appears not relevant in this field but performing a simple NTRK3 fluorescent in situ hybridization test consists in a valuable approach to identify the rare NTRK3-rearranged GISTs treatable using anti-TRK therapies.
