12.1 Mechanism of Action Pralsetinib is a kinase inhibitor of wild-type RET and oncogenic RET fusions (CCDC6- RET ) and mutations ( RET V804L, RET V804M and RET M918T) with half maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC 50s ) less than 0.5 nM. In purified enzyme assays, pralsetinib inhibited DDR1, TRKC, FLT3, JAK1-2, TRKA, VEGFR2, PDGFRB, and FGFR1 at higher concentrations that were still clinically achievable at C max . In cellular assays, pralsetinib inhibited RET at approximately 14-, 40-, and 12-fold lower concentrations than VEGFR2, FGFR2, and JAK2, respectively. Certain RET fusion proteins and activating point mutations can drive tumorigenic potential through hyperactivation of downstream signaling pathways leading to uncontrolled cell proliferation. Pralsetinib exhibited anti-tumor activity in cultured cells and animal tumor implantation models harboring oncogenic RET fusions or mutations including KIF5B- RET , CCDC6- RET , RET M918T, RET C634W, RET V804E, RET V804L and RET V804M.
