Recently FDA-approved pralsetinib and selpercatinib are RET-selective protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors for treating RET-altered cancers. Selpercatinib was found to effectively inhibit certain resistant mutations that were strongly resistant to pralsetinib, showing better activity in those cases.
Recently Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved pralsetinib (BLU-667) and selpercatinib (LOXO-292) are RET-selective protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors for treating RET-altered cancers, but whether they have distinct activity was unknown. The L730V/I mutations at the roof of the solvent-front site of the RET kinase were identified as strongly resistant to pralsetinib but not to selpercatinib. Selpercatinib effectively inhibited these mutants and the KIF5B-RET(L730V/I) oncogene-driven tumors.
